The Rise of ATLiens [Interview]

The trap duo has signed with United Talent Agency. How do they retain their identities confidential?

Hot off their Invasion excursion, ATLiens have signed with United Talent Agency – a major step for the bass duo. What does it take to construct a career while maintaining their identities a mystery?

Because you can see from our interview this season in Electric Daisy Carnival at Las Vegas, ATLiens prefer to stay anonymous – to – stage that we can only ask them”yes” or”no” questions. Hanging out with the two practically feels like meeting someone in witness protection. Getting through airport security is easier than getting into their room.

To cap 2018 at the best way possible, ATLiens signed with Jonathan Griffin, a representative in UTA responsible for scheduling functions such as Black Tiger Sex Machine, Infected Mushroom, and Space Jesus. Here’s what their supervisor, Griffin Haddrill, had to say on the signing:

“ATLiens & myself are excited to use UTA. They accomplished great items for their clientele and have set their eye. I am convinced we’ll do the exact same and then a number. We have a fantastic representative, Jonathan Griffin that sees our vision and the bigger picture in drama. It’s always appreciated to observe the other representatives at UTA function as a team and see the long-term expansion for ATLiens. You can’t go wrong when men like Steve Gordon & Kevin Gimble developed a team and roster which has changed the tides for the much better in dance music”

We also sat down with Griffin this week to ask him how he protects their identities.

EDM.com: Why remain anonymous?

Griffin Haddrill: It is truly about the fan and music experience. When you come to an ATLiens show, fans are there to experience the music. ATLiens in their own way have a personality, but the human element isn’t there.  It’s about the fans, the music, and ATLiens all coming together to create an atmosphere you don’t get at other shows.

How strict is the incognito component?

It’s a huge priority for us. At every show or public event, we make sure ATLiens identities are hidden, even if it means going through great lengths to remain incognito.

How do you balance being on tour with remaining anonymous?

It’s definitely not easy. I’ve had plenty of phone calls when they are about to miss a flight telling me that TSA won’t let them through security. Luckily, they’ve never missed a flight but in the heat of the moment those calls are always stressful (laughs).

What are special things you list on your rider to help with this?

A bowl of just red M&M’s… kidding. The main thing is just having a conversation with the venue or promoter and talking it through. At the end of the night the whole venue staff feels like it was a team effort to keep ATLiens hidden, so there tends to be a level of camaraderie around it and everyone has a good time.

What are some close calls the team has had?

Ohhh man. I can go on and on, there have been so many close calls. A couple moments that stick out sometimes:

ATLiens will jump into the crowd at some shows and there have been plenty of times when people try and pull the mask off. Hasn’t happened yet, but those moments are always scary.

Another moment was when ATLiens were checking into a hotel and the lady at front desk bought a ticket to see them perform that night. They checked into the hotel and the reservation for the room said “ATLiens.” Luckily, they had a tour manager, photographer, and other friends there so she didn’t know which one was ATLiens but that was definitely a learning moment to never put a reservation under “ATLiens” (laughs).

Here are a few notable moments from their career:

In 2017, ATLiens released a heavy bass collab with Bassnectar, titled “Interlock”, which was a step towards trap music for the dubstep king. They also dropped a track with Jameston Thieves, “Ninth Dimension,” and an album of remixes of their track “Alchemy”.

In 2018, ATLiens have exploded in popularity with a huge tour across North America and Asia punctuated by a stellar show in Bangkok on Halloween. The Invasion tour is over, but fans look forward to the next one. In addition to their collaboration with Tynan, their latest joint effort with Badrapper had one of our personal favorite music videos of the year.

They even had their song”Chief” showcased at the Samsung commercial to the Galaxy S9.

We can’t wait to discover what is next in store to the pair that is unearthly, and we are hoping this UTA signing means festivals and shows!

Diplo reveals upcoming John Mayer collaboration

Diplo reveals upcoming John Mayer collaborationDiplo Dame Dash

Diplo along with John Mayer are allegedly focusing on new music together. At first thought it may appear to be an water and oil mix, however, the more one reproduces it in their head. It’s among the world’s leading pop manufacturers and EDM’s designated stepdad paired with one of the most prolific musicians of a generation, that both seem to get a genuine talent for never taking themselves too seriously while controlling their individual crafts.

The “Close To Me” producer revealed the forthcoming cooperation in Diplo style, remarking on the cooperation with a photo posted on Instagram… not only a photo of him and Mayer — but it still gets over the message. There aren’t even on when John Mayer and the Mad Decent head honcho are put to debut their own new audio, or how much of it exists. Between his work with Major Lazer, Silk City, LSD and also the prior Jack Ü, possibly a joint campaign together with Mayer could even turn out to be Diplo’s next super group. Who knows?

View this article on Instagram

I wanted to post a picture of me along with @johnmayer last night working at the studio because I am aware that it would have been an instant. Something of a standard in my augmented reality of Instagram … But then I never even thought to ask — since the notion of stopping real time (while we were in a state of creative delight) to create something bogus for me to enjoy and build engagement around my brand … It only seemed embarrassing So rather — here’s a picture of a baby goat I got at Jamaica for my own birthday. And expect some fresh music with John soon -comment below if your excited

Did StubHub just leak Skrillex’s next major festival booking?

Did StubHub just leak Skrillex’s next major festival booking?Skrille Do Lab

Skrillex will headline Minneapolis’ Snowta Festival, hit Vancouver, as well as both variants of Decadence until 2018 is out. Momentum moving into 2019 will likely be high, and according to StubHub, it seems the OWSLA spearhead are also among those artists recorded on Lollapalooza Argentina’s lineup, set for March 29 — 31, 2019. A Reddit user noted that the worldwide addition to Skrillex’s roster of forthcoming appearances while surfing the manufacturer ’s present tour dates StubHub. Even though the festival date may be only an error, the show date could be an accurate expansion of Skrillex’s tour schedule that surfaced StubHub before an lineup statement from Lollapalooza Argentina organizers.

The LA-based celebrity ’s Snowta and Decadence bookings, audio engineer Randy Urbanski’s perhaps not so subtle hint that fresh Skrillex songs is Published in October, and also recent speculation that Skrillex has been at work on a flip of Travis Scott‘s “Sicko Mode” jointly point to large moves in the works in Skrillex, making the possibility of a Lollapalooza Argentina headline charging even more likely. For the time being, the Recess manufacturer ’s looming return proceeds to generate anticipation, but while the year inches to a close, we’re gambling things in Skrillex’s camp are all only beginning to heat up.

Hardwell Announces Indefinite Break From DJ’ing

Dance music titan Hardwell hangs up his boots from touring and DJ’ing in a surprise announcement earlier today. But he has promised an urge to”return stronger” when he does, and we’ll sure be here waiting Hardwell.

One of the biggest names in dance music today as we know it, decided to go onto an indefinite hiatus from touring and selling out arenas. Dance music titan, and Dutch legend, Hardwell took to social media just a few hours ago to announce to his fans that he was taking a much needed and indefinite break from his live shows but also promised he would”return deeper” when he did. 

Explaining his decision and how the relentless and grueling touring schedule took a toll on him, Hardwell went on to say he was exhausted by “being Hardwell 24×7” and how this left him no time to be himself and for his family and friends. Saying, 

“Over the last few years I’t come to know myself better and improved and more time I realized that there’s still so much I need to share with my family members and friends, so many roads I’d love to explore, but being Hardwell 24/7 leaves too little energy, love, creativity, and attention for my life as a normal person to do so.”

While this means that his touring schedule officially ended in style and with a bang yesterday, on September 6 in Ibiza, he will still play his All Ages show in the Ziggo Dome during Amsterdam Dance Event on the 18th of October 2018.

We have to applaud Hardwell for taking this drastic step to take time off and focus on not just himself but his near and dear ones as well. We’ve come to know all too well how stressful the industry and the pressure that it carries with it can be when we all lost a gem of an artist to it in Avicii! While similar to the steps Avicii took, Hardwell has promised to continue making music in his time off, so that’s definitely something his fans can celebrate. 

Hardwell also went on to end on a positive note saying he wanted to stay connected with his fans by the way of his music and definitely didn’t rule of a return in the future saying, 

“My sincerest hope is that we’ll have the ability to carry on this trip together. I would like to return stronger than ever, except for nowI’m only going to be me for a while.”

We wish Hardwell full power and hope he likes his much deserved time off to your fullest! Once he’s ready, Meanwhile, we’ll be right here waiting for him!
