Say Hello to the Stafford Brothers at INTL (7/15   9pm)

The Australian DJ duo who are ranked as the #1 DJs in their home country make an appearance at INTL this Wednesday night to say “Hello” to all of your beautiful faces. This Australian duo decided to pursue their lifelong aspirations to become DJs when the moved to Hollywood Hills, CA after participating in a documentary that followed them on a European tour. After coming to America they found massive success, being the first electronic act to sign to Cash Money Records where they produced the double platinum hit single, “Hello” featuring Lil Wayne and Christina Milian. Even more impressive than their double-platinum status in America is their triple-platinum success in Australia with the same track. Currently these two venturesome brothers are involved in both Australia’s #1 booking agency, 360 Agency as well as their interactive website, DJ Master Course, where audiences can learn to DJ. Don’t miss the Stafford Brothers this Wednesday when they take on the Scottsdale audiences at INTL!

Lets Blow Up Some Dust All Across AZ for Trapfest Tucson (7/17 8pm) and Trapfest Phoenix (7/18   9pm)

It is always an exciting time when a large scale event like Trapfest comes along. This is a genre that has become one of the most sought after listening material when it comes to electronic music and it is clear why that is. With its roots in hip-hop, trap takes the best elements of hip-hop and blends them with the best elements of bass music to create a hybrid of these two genres that has absolutely undeniable appeal.

In it’s third year with Relentless Beats, Trapfest has previously catered to its audiences with the likes of UZ, Etc! Etc!, Ookay, Tropkillaz, and more. This year the festival will play host to Brillz, Lookas, and Sikdope in Tucson and to Bro Safari, Brillz, and Sikdope in Phoenix. Each of these artists have made names for themselves by crafting some of the most memorable tracks in trap’s short but prosperous history. Bro Safari achieved massive success with his track “The Drop”, Brillz has been a member of OWSLA and also is a top contributor to the Twonk team mixtapes, Sikdope aided Borgore in his creation of “Unicorn Zombie Apocolypse”, and Lookas has played a number of massive festivals around the world.

Each of these artists brings with them a signature sound that you are absolutely not going to want to miss. If you are a trap fan, Arizona is the place to be this weekend. Get ready to feel the earth rattle underneath your feet!

Witness the Flashing Lights with Havana Brown at Release Pool Party (7/18   11am)

The beautiful Havana Brown makes a stop at the Talking Stick pool this Saturday to grace us with her off the wall and chart-topping hits like “We Run the Night” ft Pitbull, “Flashing Lights”, and her recently released, “Bullet Blowz”. This Australian music sensation got her start when she signed wit a record label as a part of the UK-based group Fishbowl. However, before Fishbowl released their first single, the group disbanded and she took on the role of DJ. Playing as a supporting act for Rihanna, Brittney Spears, and Pussycat Dolls, Brown was off to a quick start getting her name out into the world of music. Since then she has done a number of collaborations with some of the biggest names in pop, hip-hop, r&b, and electronic. However, her biggest collaborator over the years is RedOne who helped her get her start in original production and building a name in the EDM world. Catch Havana and her massive collection of music and collaborations this Saturday when she destroys Release!

Lets blow up some dust this weekend… with BASS!!
