Bands Going Electro: Cashing In or Branching Out?

November 8, 2013 By Sergio Pereira

It’s undeniable; electronic dance music (EDM) has taken over the music industry. Musicians from all over are looting the genre, borrowing various elements, and adding the prefix of β€œelectro” to just about anything; leaving no doubt that β€œelectro” is the new, trendy craze. Closer to home, IDM Magazine has noticed an explosion of local rock […]

Robert DeLong Live Review

August 13, 2013 By Sergio Pereira

It was a dark and stormy night… Okay, it wasn’t – I just thought that would make a better introduction than the usual post-Oppikoppi ramblings, which I’m certain that many of my peers will be using in abundance in their respective features. In fact, if Just Music’s Karl Anderson hadn’t mentioned Oppikoppi before Robert DeLong’s […]

Prior to the one-man-dance-party’s arrival, IDM Magazine spoke to RDL about video games, philosophy, Seattle grunge, […]

A State of Armin

July 11, 2013 By Sergio Pereira

It’s 16h30. The phone rings. It’s Armin van Buuren’s South African representative on the line. He says that Armin is in America, has some time to kill before his next flight and is keen to chat right now. I flip through my imaginary diary, instruct Alfred [Sergio’s imaginary PA, Ed] to hold all my calls […]

Basshunter – HUNTING FOR BEATS

May 17, 2013 By Sergio Pereira

Unless you’ve been cryogenically frozen for the past couple of years, or don’t pick up radio reception in your Batmobile, you should know who Basshunter is. Born Jonas Altberg, Basshunter is a Swedish Euro-dance sensation who has been storming the local charts and selling CDs as if they all came with a free Streetwise 2. […]

Markus Schulz – Let Me Hear You Scream, South Africa

March 15, 2013 By Sergio Pereira

Over the past decade, he has become a critically-acclaimed and respected DJ/producer, who is often touted as the biggest influence in trance and progressive dance. Last year alone, in terms of accolades, Markus was voted the #1 DJ in the USA (ahead of other heavyweights, such as […]

Pete Tong

December 13, 2012 By Sergio Pereira

Decks of Fury: The Steve Aoki way

November 5, 2012 By Sergio Pereira

Reading the first paragraph of Steve Aoki’s biography – β€œI’m a time travelling, speed reading, fortune telling, machine gunning, gypsy loving, scuba diving, multi-tasking, poker playing fan of life.”- you can easily see that he’s another cum laude graduate of The Charlie Sheen School of Winning. Steve doesn’t just bring the party; he is the […]

Here’s to You, Porter Robinson…

November 5, 2012 By Sergio Pereira

It’s 12pm in the City of Angels (Los Angeles), which means it’s 9pm in the City of Strikers (Johannesburg). β€œI just woke up,” Porter Robinson groggily proclaims after our initial introduction. Well, I’m in my fluffy slippers, old man pants and sipping warm milk, Porter; so, technically speaking, we’re both tip-toeing in the Sandman’s desert […]

APPLETISER PARTNER Dub FX & Tamara Dey for new soundtrack to the brand…

September 10, 2012 By Sergio Pereira

For their latest campaign β€œSparkle On!”, Appletiser didn’t get the Monotones or the Fanny Ks of the brand brothel world involved, but chose the bold route of putting international loop artist, Dub FX (real name Benjamin Stanford), together with South Africa’s queen of clubs, Tamara Dey, to see what they would come up with. The […]
