Cities Will Crumble With the Stomp of Trapzillas at BRKFST @ Nite (7/31 9pm)

Trapzillas bring their killer bass back to Arizona after destroying Tempe Beach Park last November for Global Dance Festival. This bass-heavy duo have recently received support from Buygore record label master, Borgore, with their new track “Dame Eso”, a high-energy semi-spanish spoken track. In addition, one of their hardest hitting tracks to date hit about a month before “Dame Eso”, that track is entitled “Choke Hold” and features Breazy Times. Aside from their recent releases, Trapzillas recently took part in the currently trending cruise ship music festival craze by playing alongside Luminox, Party Favor, and Happycolors on the Electronic Paradise Cruise and Music Festival. Don’t miss Trapzillas on Friday when they dominate the decks at BRKFST!

Shake It by the Pool with Helena at Release Pool Party (8/1 11am)

Get ready for the Revolution and the Helena takeover as “one of the most exciting DJs of the moment” (DMC World Magazine) showcases her latest and most famous tracks at Release Pool Party this Saturday afternoon. Making her debut with the single, “Girl from the Sky”, this Australian superstar grew within the ranks of some of the most sought after disc jockey talent in the world. This track stayed at #1 on Australian charts for four weeks, but that was nothing compared to what was to come.

Having just released her latest track in February entitled “Boss” alongside vocalist Vassy, who is known for tracks like David Guetta‘s “Bad”, Helena’s quality of music just gets better and more reliable with time. Don’t miss this rising talent this Saturday and be ensured that the queen of electronica will let you know that she is boss!

On the Road to Electric for Life with Gareth Emery at Release Pool Party (8/2 11am)

Coming off of his massively successful Drive tour last year which closed out with a show in Los Angeles, Gareth Emery is back in Arizona to play a show leading up to his Road to Electric for Life North American club tour, as well as his Electric for Life arena tour. Gareth was a guaranteed success from the very beginning, having started off playing piano at the age of four and playing guitar in an indie band at the age of 15. In 1998, on a chance trip to Ibiza, Gareth Emery’s made a change of pace that placed him on the path to ultimate DJ stardom. On a laptop in a French hotel room, Gareth Emery created his legendary track, “Mistral”. From then on out he has been on a meteoric rise to the top, creating massive trance tracks that often made it to the top of the charts on Beatport and had a knack for holding that position. However, he states that he does not want the genre of trance to define him, but rather contribute to his overall identity. He admits, “I’ve realised that my strength is in music and melodies that touch people. I’m a music guy. It just happens to be that the music I make is electronic. That realisation has allowed me a lot more creative freedom, then when I felt I had to write music for a certain ‘scene’.” After a successful podcast, a Las Vegas residency, multiple number 1 tracks from the likes of a burgeoning number of genres, and being in global demand, this creator of the iconic hymn, “Concrete Angel”, will be electric for life. Get your hands on some Gareth Emery tickets this Sunday at Talking Stick Resort!

Show us that you are Electric for Life and make plans to catch these amazing artists this weekend!
