Cool Stuff: Potential Zombie Theme Park in Detroit

Washington DC – “Z-Troit”, a section of abandoned Detroit, Michigan is planned to become a Zombie theme park where people can pay to try to “survive” one day and one night in a zombie infested area using only the resources within the area. The idea seems pretty awesome for those who love playing COD Zombies or loved the “Zombieland” movie but, the people behind the idea need $145,000 USD to start off the park. The money would be used to improve the structural strength of the abandoned buildings where zombie-goers hide or seek refuge from the zombies outside. If you wish to donate, here’s the link.

Editor’s Note: Personally, I think this is an awesome idea but, a venture capital company should be the one investing in this idea. It shouldn’t be a business built off donations.

Posij – Empty Lungs EP (2012) (Dubstep/Bass Music)

Audio

Washington DC – Born and raised in Groningen, Netherlands, Frank Post’s initial forays into releasing music have seen him remix Noisia for Deadmau5’s mau5trap imprint and get snapped up by his fellow Dutchmen for an album deal on their Division Recordings record label. Arriving at the production alias Posij via several visits to Greek ruins, a personal loathing for swimming in seas and rivers, and an understanding of graphic design, Frank’s aural outlook drags the experimental days of electronic music up to date with modern sounds and production techniques. His vision is emphatically shared by those who encounter Posij’s fresh and unique take on bass music, confirming that there is more than meets the ear to this exciting new producer.

Pola-Riot Launch Their New EP “Brazza”

Audio

Washington DC – Ain’t no stopping the Riot! Viennese producers and party promoters/animals Pola-Riot are back with another massive dancefloor smasher. Following the acclaimed What What EP, their bouncy and cheerful new track Brazza (released on Etage Noir Special) is surely destined to make audiences freak out big time.

Being named after an (in)famous Italian explorer Brazza is keeping up Pola-Riot’s emphasis on high-energy production work while at the same time infusing some of that techno-noirish flair the duo integrated in its last year‘s remixes for Mustard Pimp and Valerna.

The complete package comes with two remarkable reworks. Austrian fellowmen A.G.Trio amp up the original by giving it the big room treatment: prog rave par excellence! On the other hand much lauded French shooting star The Deficient is spicing it up with some tropical snare flavor – big banger alarm!

Tiësto & Wolfgang Gartner Ft. Luciana – We Own The Night (Preview): Drops April 6th!

Mobile:

Washington DC – On April 6th Tiësto teams up with Wolfgang Gartner for the release of their brand new single, “We Own The Night”, a feature track on Tiësto’s forthcoming new mix album “Club Life — Volume Two Miami”

“We Own The Night” is a definitive dance music anthem; dedicated to the late night hours when clubbers and DJs burn with the stars and shine so bright. Tiësto and Wolfgang Gartner have created a masterpiece where a powerful instrumental is paired with perfect vocals for an epic result.

Tiësto says, “I’ve been a huge fan of Wolfgang for years. As a producer, there are few out there with the kind of talent he has, so teaming up was always something I was very keen to make happen. I’m really happy with how the track turned out; you can hear each of our individual styles on there, but together they create something really special! It was an easy decision to make it a key track on my new “Club Life Volume Two Miami compilation”.

Wolfgang Gartner adds, “When Tiësto brought up the idea of collaboration I was thrilled and I think “We Own The Night” is destined to be a classic. We were already happy with the musical part, but something special happened when Luciana came into the project and put her vocal touch on it. The only way I can describe it is…magic. I can honestly say this song is my favorite of all the collaborations I’ve ever done.”

“CLUB LIFE – Volume Two Miami” offers unique access to Tiësto’s Miami, a city renowned for its world class night life, beautiful party goers and everlasting summers. Tiësto crafts the CLUB LIFE experience masterfully, using his own exclusive original productions and remixes as the driving force behind the album.
