[wp_ad_camp_2] BeatLounge was born from the mind of Alejandra Iorgulescu, Director and Producer of the project. An Argentinean living in Los Angeles for the past decade, who created a website where electronic music would be the sole protagonist, a place where this self-proclaimed geek, graphic designer, former webmaster and all around technology junkie would come to blend all her passions. The idea began to take shape in early 2005. It worked under a different name and Staff and as a weekly podcast for many years. But it was only in 2012, when BeatLounge decided to take the next logical step, a natural mutation in its format. And so in March 2012 the podcast transforms into Radio, offering a unique product where 30+ radioshows with different styles such as Deep, House, Ambient, Trip Ho...

[wp_ad_camp_2] [wp_ad_camp_1] The stand-out track on the recently released The Sound of Garuda: Chapter 3 mixed by Ben Gold was undoubtedly Ben's own original, 'Amplified.' The track's magnetic energy has been burning the soles off of clubbers' shoes after its debut at ASOT 600 live in Kuala Lumpur and on ASOT 612, when Ben discussed the compilation with Armin van Buuren to overwhelmingly positive feedback.

[wp_ad_camp_2] MOGUAI just went on tour through North America. Hammarica caught up with him for an exclusive interview! [wp_ad_camp_1] If you could steal one thing from Deadmau5' studio, what would that be? I would steal his monitor setup ;-) On ITV Live we heard that at one moment in your career you played hardcore/gabber. Did you also produce these styles at one time? I didn't play gabber or hardcore, I would name it pretty hard techno! At that time when I started djing electronic music was very fast, hard and had an average bpm number of 160-175bpm. I know that sounds fast, but in the early nineties it was just normal because Techno was very much influenced by Industrial music and EBM. For sure I produced tracks during that time, for example my first EP “Best Before End” o

[wp_ad_camp_2] Just enough pain to turn you on and get your blood flowing but a touch of sweetness to keep you intrigued, feeling loved and coming back for more. Having not reviewed any tracks or albums recently, I have to say that the new Destroid album “The Invasion” was one hell of a way to get me back into the swing of things! [wp_ad_camp_1] To say I am impressed by the production, execution and perfect balance of hardstyle dubstep and alluring pretty melodies is an understatement. Not to mention the list of collaborations is pristine. With names like Bassnectar, Space Laces, Messinian, Far Too Loud and Ajapai – one has to assume no song will be anything less than savage. And one would assume correct. The album as a whole is mind blowing and needless to say I am now a di
