song of the day: zero 76

Posted on February 16, 2011 by

A few weeks ago I teased an upcoming collaboration between Dutch EDM legends Tiesto and Hardwell. Well, the track’s finally come out, and it’s a monster. The drop isn’t trancey at all — a kind of loping, roller-coaster synth that … Continue reading →

song of the day: c’mon

Posted on August 26, 2010 by
