DJ Producer Kill The Buzz took over 10 cities with the Revealed Recordings North America Tour. Along side friends Thomas Newson & Hardwell these bachelors hit the decs with incredible music, amazing production, and unbelievable energy in 10 cities across North America. We had the pleasure of chatting with Kill The Buzz right before taking over the stage at The Bluestone in Columbus, OH. Ok! The venue is cool, grand in a small kind of way but still big and demands attention. As the final touches in sound and production check were wrapping up, we (Alex Paredes & College Intern Juan Paredes) went backstage to catch Kill The Buzz before his opening set. We talked talked about tour, the guys (Thomas Newson & Hardwell), new music, Miami Music Week and Ultra and of course what his music is really all about out. Check out our interview with Kill The Buzz below and make sure you tell us what you think!

In a world where music trends recycle themselves and everyone thinks that “rap” is the freshest form of music… We find ourselves believing and, actually, knowing that there are incredible musicians out there that keep the music world fresh, sexy, unheard of, and above it all… new! Thanks to our doll Amanda Kaiser from Bless PR, we were introduce to Tesla Boy and just like that, something refreshingly new! The New Wave-Electro-Pop is fun, upbeat, refreshing, new, while having the basics of retro 80’s rock and pop blend together. It’s really fun and the music is transcendent. So, we had to learn more. We had the pleasure to chat with Anton Sevidov, vocalist of the Russian foursome, about how Tesla Boy came to be, their latest single and what’s to come. Check out our interview below and their latest single Nothing:
Describe Tesla Boy using 5 words or less.
Power Muscles Ferrari Testarossa wheel Leo Tolstoy The Frost.
How did the four of you come together as Tesla Boy?
We all met in Moscow. And it happened at different times. We have been playing as this team for three years. Misha and I (Anton Sevidov) are from Moscow. Stas is from town of Penza. And Leo came from Rostov, a city in the south. We were part of a large group of people who were engaged in modern indie-pop music. Once our old drummer was unable to perform with us, I suggested Misha as a substitute. I decided to keep him. And since then he has been with us. I found Leo through the Internet – said I was looking for a bassist and requested some samples – well, he did it, I liked it, and the next day he was in Moscow. Stas was recommended by my Moscow DJ friends and he did a very good remix for us. Now you know all.
What does Tesla Boy mean?
He is a Nikola Tesla illegitimate son, who for a long time had been wandering around the world and eventually secretly settled in Belorussia, where he had been secretly working on elixir of eternal power, which won a guy who is now the President of that country. This is in honor of this guy we called our band, that is, not in honor of the President.
We love your sound! Can you tell us what inspired your vibe and sound?
Thank you. I am glad. A lot of records. As you can see the sound has sufficiently changed. And it will change even more. Earlier I was inspired by Escape from New York, and say “is this love” by White Snake or “This Is Not America” by David Bowie, but now I try to listen more to classic music, so as not to bother my brain with the music that sounds around. I am inspired a lot by Tchaikovsky, Muller and baroque music.
What inspired your newest single “Nothing”?
I was inspired by a documentary about great Rudolf Nureyev. It is an amazing story of a man who in one leap from the past decided to jump into the future.
Define sexy: What is the sexiest Country? City? Club? Musician? Current Song?
City: I think it Medellin, Columbia. Club? Redakcia Bar, in Moscow. Musician? Of course, Vladimir Horowitz. Song? Chopin, Ballade 1.
Will there be a North America tour in the near future?
And here we thought we were kicking off Miami Music Week 2016 on St. Patrick’s Day… Hardwell is throwing his legendary revealed party on March 16th at the killer Nikki Beach Miami. A) We love that spot, always sexy, always Miami and B) the line up for the party is out of this world, filled with incredible talent including Hardwell himself!
The annual Miami Music Week performance has a lineup consisting of Revealed Recordings artists like Dannic, Kill the Buzz, and Hardwell himself, alongside new talents like Thomas Newson, FTAMPA, and Kura, for a night of killer dance music making it the perfect party to kick start Miami Music Week/Winter Music Conference/Ultra 2016!!
Here they go again… dropping another track, ‘Don’t Let Me Down ft. Daya’, that pushes electronic music forward by blending acoustic instruments, electro thump and emotional vocals. ‘Don’t Let Me Down’ captures vibrating electro notes perfectly layered with musical, strings and resonation, instruments; Making this track ideal for remixes in almost any genre! ‘Don’t Let Me Down’ features Daya’s unbelievable vocals filed with an intense range and a dirty groovy sound. The track just dropped as the duo continues to take over the stages of multiple clubs, concert venues and music festivals.
Listen, music festival season is 5 weeks from kicking off (Ultra 2016 duh) and the ‘Don’t Let Me Down’ beats will be for sure on our playlist, probably on repeat. Download it here! And let us know what you think below!!
Fourth Kygo – Cloud Nine Tour stop: Navy Pier Chicago
Gryffin kickes off the Cloud Nine experience with a quick 30 minute set. He’s music is sexy, hip, young, fresh, a great new take on classic house music. Griffyn has a quality application of live instruments while blending his talent with melodical electro music.
Thomas Jack was everything! We wanted to see him at TomorrowWorld this past year, but due to the weather and festival regulations, we missed him. So, this was our time. He’s everything you would ever think of. He’s musicality is incredible. He’s ability to take an upbeat pop song and turn it into tropical pineapple feel sound is unreal! GO SEE HIM!
After a 30 minute wait, Kygo hops on his spaceship like stage. His stage production is great, the lights, the videography, the synchronization of his live instruments with the produced tracks and even the remixed tracks. Kygo is a electronic musical genius! He had a grand piano, live vocalists, and played multiple instruments. In addition to all the instrumental magic, Kygo had friends join the stage for live performances. R. Kelly hopped on for a quick song and the crowd went nuts! We went nuts! A great point of reference, for your music festival goers, the Cloud Nine Tour feel like the Sahara Tent at Coachella. If the Cloud Nine Tour is coming to your city… get your tickets now!
DIM MAK Records’ turns 20 and to celebrate, Steve Aoki and DIM MAK family will be celebrating in style at the legendary beach club Nikki Beach. Over the last couple of years, the DIM MAK Miami Music Week party is THE event to attend. Not only do killer DJs rock the decks until the warm Miami sun comes up, but they also rage with the crowd!
Nikki Beach Miami was the home of last year’s party and this year, the celebration will go from noon on Thursday the 17th till 5am the next day! Steve Aoki is the first big name to confirm while a plethora big names will soon be announced! Early Bird tickets are only $35… Party always sales out, so hurry up and get yours!
We love us some Andrew Rayel. Over the last couple of years we’ve had the pleasure to chat and learn more about where his passion and producer magic comes from. With the release of the first single, ‘Winterburn’, of the upcoming full length studio album, that magic we talk about… hit the airwaves. Cheesy or not, we really do think this cat has magical musicality. ‘Winterburn’ plays up Rayel’s classically trained piano skills while American artist, Sylvia Tosun, vocals add humanity and emotion to the track. This high energy trance roller coaster catches your body euphorically with incredibly bassline, an unreal climax and powerful thumps! Rayel worked closely with Digital X (real name: Peter Holub), Ukrainian DJ and producer, in creating ‘Winterburn’ and the this collaboration gets two thumps up! Check the track bellow and buy it here.
Here we go Trance-Family, the legendary Armin Van Buuren puts together an incredible A State of Trance, ASOT, year mix 2015 just in time to ring in the new year! Maybe also so that we can get a little heads up on our “working-out” new years resolution? Whatever the excuse may be, this 2015 year mix is killer and fantastically jam-packed with beats that made 2015 thump our lives out!
“I ask the fans of the show to vote for their favorite tracks of the year [and] those votes combined give me a good overview of what the hot tracks were that year.” Said Armin van Buuren.
