What this episode covers
Welcome to episode 34! This week we talk about new music from Artists We're Watching: BLVD, Tyler Lawrence, and Adiidas (on his collab with MeSo). Other new music discussed includes fresh tracks from Armin Van Buuren, Jauz, BTSM x Yookie, and PEEKABOO. Delving into EDM news and culture, we talk about Zedd & South Park being banned from China, Decadence Arizona's initial lineup, FIFA 20's STACKED EDM filled soundtrack, and how music festivals are taking on environmental responsibility. This week's Anti-Plur: Alec being aggressively told to "stop texting" when he was actually taking notes on the DJ to talk to him... besides, he was at the back! This week we rate: Chris Lorenzo - Late Checkout (full album); MEDUZA, Goodboys, Becky Hill - Lose Control. A major shoutout to this week's Artists We're Watching: SHIZUO (trap/future trap/instrumental trap/pure awesomeness) and anbuu (lo-fi, chill trap). PUT THEM ON YOUR RADAR. And lastly... THANK YOU.
