This week in dance music: Grimes canceled an appearance at D.C. World Pride, citing “family issues,” we spoke to the CEO of Epidemic Sound about a new remix series, we caught up with Mau P at Coachella, where he told us about the pressure of being a new generation dance star, saying that “I love everyone that listens to my music so much, and they put me up front, so I better live up to it.”
Meanwhile, Fred again.. was announced as one of the headliners for Japan’s Fuji Rock Festival, Rezz relocated her show to SummerStage in Central Park amid the ongoing opening delay at Brooklyn Mirage and Jamie xx’s classic In Colour turned 10.
Also, Dutch star Alan Walker told us about an app he’s about to launch that’s intended to create an immersive world for fans and cut through the online noise and algorithmic interference that often prevents artists from reaching fans. Walker and his manager Gunnar Greve told us that they hope their project will help the industry evolve “in a way that puts fans and artists at the center. Not just as tools for big corporations.”
But wait, there’s more: We shared exclusive photos of John Summit, Subtronics, Shygirl and more performing at Lightning in a Bottle 2025; we hung out in the studio with Anyma and discussed his Sphere residency and new album The End of Genesys; and we talked with producer Bianca Oblivion, our Billboard Dance Rookie of the Month for May 2025.
And last but never least, these are the best new dance tracks of the week.
