The Best Of 2012
The Tunes
YASMINE:
Jetlag Funk by Netsky
Cannonball by Showtek & Justin Prime
HyperParadise (Flume Remix) by Hermitude
JAHAN:
Tidal Wave by SubFocus feat. Alpines
Fn Pig by deadmau5
Must Be the Love (Shogun Remix) by BT, Arty, & Nadia Ali
KRIS:
We Come Running (Vicetone Remix) by Youngblood Hawke
Holding On (Skrillex and Nero remix) by Monsta
And I know it’s weird to name your band when asked a question like this, but I honestly think that the Pegboard Nerds remix of our track ‘Alive’ is in my top 3
The Festival
YASMINE:
Spring Awakening in our hometown Chicago. Our city rages so hard and we felt some mad hometown love that day
JAHAN:
Stereosonic in Australia. Performing outside of our bubble has been an eye-opening experience. Plus we’ve learned so much from the other artists on the tour who are leaders in the industry
KRIS:
I went to/played my first festival this year (Meltdown in Texas). I love them. My favorite was EDC Orlando
The Club
YASMINE:
Necto in Ann Arbor
JAHAN:
LiquidSixx in Cleveland
KRIS:
Any club or stage @erikdisco is smashing
The Producer
YASMINE:
Netsky. Without a doubt I listen to him every day. He is the fucking master of drum & bass and I swear to anyone who thinks they hate the genre, give Netsky a listen. From listening to his music, especially his newest album “2”, one can tell he’s an incredibly talented musician. His melodies and percussion are out of control. I’m terribly passionate about his music and could probably keep writing about it but I’ll cut it out now
JAHAN:
Pegboard Nerds. First of all, they completely killed it on their remix of our record ‘Alive.’ Love how they make some of the heaviest dubstep and drumstep but manage to give their tunes very catchy melodies
KRIS:
Such a hard question! I think all around I’m most impressed with what Zedd has accomplished this year. He put out a bunch of great records, toured and worked with Lady Gaga and made a track for Justin Bieber without pissing off his fans. Amazing
The Hero
YASMINE:
2Chainz (yaaaaams)
JAHAN:
MOTHERFUCKING DIPLO
KRIS:
That Red Bull guy who jumped from space
The Breakthrough Artist
YASMINE: Flume. Normally I’m into straight heavy music but Flume makes the most magical and beautiful music. I’m obsessed.
JAHAN: Nicky Romero
KRIS: Paris Hilton
The Prediction For 2013
YASMINE:
Drum & Bass takeover in America
JAHAN:
DJ-centric shows transitioning into live band shows
KRIS:
Krewella releases their first LP!!
