So MadeEvent has released it’s first piece of info about Electric Zoo 2010! The festival will be held on September 4 and 5 @ Randalls Island Park in NYC. The first ever festival in 2009 was amazing, so lets hope they can gather up a great group of DJ’s for this year’s party and make it better then last! Check out videos from the 2009 show in our Video Section, or check out the pictures in the Pictures Section!

Today we’ll focus on a resident New York DJ, some of you might of heard of him, he’s sort of a big deal in the scene.. His name is Danny Tenaglia, and his massive amounts of tunage are what makes him one of the more successful New York DJ’s. One of his first classic tracks was 1998’s “Element” , which is an amazing track, where the vocals actually take you through the elements of the record. His remix of Green Velvets “Flash” won him “Best Remix” at the UK’s Muzik Awards. The track again is amazing, also giving a sort of story, so “Camera’s ready, prepare to flash”!!!. One of my favorite’s from Danny is his newest production “The Space Dance”..

With the days counting down to the Electric Zoo, we here at DJtunez.net have brought it upon ourselves to introduce you to some of the artist’s performing. Today we will meet Kaskade. Kaskade has lately become for famous for his work with Deadmau5(Such as “Move For Me”) and the amazing Adam K and Soha remix of “4 AM”.

But truth be told Kaskade has been at it since 2001, his first top 10 track was “Steppin Out”. He has since been part of projects such as Late Nite Alumni, which track “Empty Streets”, which has even become the theme for the commercial of the Toyota iQ. One of his newest singles is called “Everything”, but one of my favorites from Kaskade is his 2008 track….

With under 50 days to go till the Electric Zoo and over 50 artists performing, I think its time for us to school you guys on some of the performers. Today we’ll introduce you to three DJ’s playing on Saturday (Sept.5).

Armin Van Buuren, I don’t think I have to give a big lesson on this man. Winning awards as a producer and a DJ, including the 2007 and 2008 DJmag #1 DJ(took #2 in ‘06 and has been top 5 since 2002). His discography includes tracks he’s done with Tiesto (“Wonder Where You Are?“), under the name “Major League”, to tracks with Ferry Corsten (“Exhale”), under the name “System F” to his new tracks like “Fine Without You” off his new album “Imagine”.

Up next we have Deadmau5. I don’t think I’ve seen a DJ/Producer hated on more than him since DJ Aligator. From his beef with Marcus Schossow,who created a project along with Maor Levi and DJ Eco named “Deadrat6″(Deadmau5 later released a track under the name “Marcus Fatsow”, a blow at Marcus’ size) ..to his views on “DJ’s”, and I quote “with all due respect to the DJ type that will fucking go the way of the dinosaur, I’d like them to dis-a-fucking-pear! It’s so middle man, they’re like fucking lawyers! You need them, but they’re fucking cunt”. Other then these minor incidents the man has brought forth quality music, from his Juno Award winning track with Billy Newton Davis, called “All U Ever Want”, to his track “I Remember” with Kaskade and his Grammy nominated remix of Morgan Page’s “The Longest Road”.

Up third in today’s spotlight is Benny Benassi. Benny has accomplished alot since coming in the dance scene including a Grammy for his remix of Public Enemy’s “Bring The Noise” , also correct me if I’am wrong,but I believe he made that distorted bass sound cool. One of my favorite’s from Benny Benassi is “Rocket In The Sky”..please,please..dont ask me why. But lets not joke ourselves, we all know what he’s most famous for….
