The hometown edition of our series of festival stages went down at Electric Zoo on Friday, 8/31 and was another one for the books! Bodies were moved by A-Trak (with Donnis on guest MC duties – and a full on 3D interlude!), Tommy Trash, Dillon Francis, Nadastrom, Gesaffelstein, Araabmuzik, Treasure Fingers, Nick Catchdubs and special guests Jack Beats. Watch the recap vid and check some photos after the jump (more shots on our Facebook). Read More
A-Trak and Dillon Francis are back with a crazy remix package for “Money Makin’,” their fan-favorite summer anthem (complete with a beloved, dancing cash machine music video that put the ATM in EDM.)
Oliver Twizt’s “trap mix” leads it off, a massive bass monster that has been a highlight of A-Trak and Dillon’s DJ sets at HARD Summer, Camp Bisco and countless other dance events this year. New hotshots Barjo & Alban Lipp crank things up waaaay louder with a stomping, heavyweight mix. And hip hop legend (and hip house pioneer!) Mark The 45 King brings it all home with a joyful breakbeat collage on his “Bonus Beats Mix,” transporting the festival rave back to the park jams where it all began. Grab it now on iTunes and Beatport! Read More
Check out A-Trak (in various incarnations) getting busy on the 1s and 2s over his collab with Dillon Francis, “Money Makin’,” out now on Fool’s Gold. After the jump, watch the original vid, and stay tuned for more ATM action very soon. For even more A-Trak, check out his latest Beatport chart while yer at it. Read More
As promised, A-Trak and Dillon Francis’ first collab “Money Makin'” is out today on Fool’s Gold, cop it from iTunes or Beatport.
We’ve also got a music video, premiered by Noisey! In keeping with the two DJs’ absurd sense of humor, they star in the clip as repairmen who transform a busted ATM into a hard-partying dance machine that takes the big city by storm… until the dough runs out.
Directed by Ben Solomon and Daniel B Levin, and featuring cameos from P-Thugg of Chromeo, rap legend Greg Nice, Action Bronson and more, “Money Makin'” is yet another must-see FG vid, and the perfect kick-off to summer jam season. Read More
Check in with A-Trak live from Canada as he teases his upcoming single with Dillon Francis, “Money Makin,” out next Tuesday (5/22) on Fool’s Gold. Read More
A few weeks ago we ran through Austin for two mega parties during SXSW: a label showcase at the brand new Beauty Ballroom, and a team-up Super Party with Mad Decent and Check Yo Ponytail that took over BB as well as the giant Emo’s East down the street. Suffice it to say… shit got live!
From A$AP (and Sammy Bananas!) stagedives to A-Trak’s big-room scratchery, these were parties none of us will forget. Check out our recap video of both nights above, along with photos from our in-house shutterbug Josh Wehle (as well as a CYP’s full cinema-style featurette on Super Party) after the jump. Read More
This January the crew set sail aboard the maiden voyage of Holy Ship! and brought a dose of FG swag to the high seas rave. Check out our own recap of what went down – from the Fool’s Gold Rap Party to Danny Brown’s solo set to A-Trak’s DJ lessons and main-stage antics (including a DJ hero conga line!) – and peep the official Holy Ship! video of the whole thing after the jump.
There’s also a ton of great photos from our homies KirillWasHere (one and two), Rony’s Photobooth (one, two, three, and four), Rukes (one, two and three), Glenjamn (one, two, three and four) Rolling Stone, Spin, and Holy Ship!’s own Facebook gallery.
