Rise Festival Announces Phase 1 Lineup For 10th Edition Of ‘Party On Top Of The World’ 
19 April 2024 - Data Transmission Staff
Rise Festival has announced its phase 1 lineup as it prepares to celebrate its huge 10th anniversary as the ‘party on top of the world’. 
The world’s biggest independent ski festival has delivered a lineup drop that underlines its status. The first headline act for an unmissable set in the snow is Chase & Status making a welcome return to the Rise main stage. 
Also heading to Les 2 Alpes in France from 7th – 14th December, are Gorgon City, Hannah Laing, Sammy Virji, blk., Ewan McVicar, and Bou. Arielle Free (BBC Radio 1) lines up to celebrate 10 years of Rise with a one-off ‘Freeze Your Mind’ party, with more big performances incoming from Black Traffic, Badger, [IVY] and Issey Cross. With more exciting announcements to come, Rise is the ultimate way to round off the year – a high-octane mix of unrivalled skiing, quality music, and unforgettable parties. 





[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5_akX7Jads?feature=oembed&w=1140&h=641]




Rise Festival opens the Winter Ski Season every year and welcomes an up-for-it, global community of like-minded party people (over 48 countries in 2023). From skiing beginners to seasoned snowboarders, through to those just there for the music, parties, and views, this year will be the best yet as everyone gathers for 10 years of Rise and an adventure that brings the world’s best electronic music artists to a stunning, snow-covered village to play across three main stages (two outdoor), five indoor venues, and one transformed warehouse – the ultimate afterparty space.
Rise Festival guarantees hard-to-believe moments, like raving 3000m up a mountain, paragliding through the Alps, partying around the fire pits, relaxing in the spa, and more. Even the food is special at Rise with a wide range of delicious options on offer and some unforgettable experiences such as; Lunch In The Clouds – on the terrace of Michelin Guide restaurant Le Diable Au Coeur 2400m high with incredible mountain views; Summit Supper – taking the lift to the top of the mountain to enjoy a tempting dinner at Le Diable Au Coeur and spectacular twilight views; and Hommage Du Fromage – an unmissable mix of cheesy music and traditional French cheese. Guests can sing along as they enjoy moreish fondue or raclette with charcuterie and plenty of vino. 
There’s nothing like enjoying a day of the best mountain skiing followed by a night of food, parties and fun, soundtracked by an array of world-beating DJ talent.
Chase & Status have had an incredible year, winning a BRIT Award for Producer of the Year, enjoyed two massive hits with ‘Disconnect’ and ‘Baddadan’, and reinvented themselves yet again with new album/mixtape ‘2 Ruff, Vol 1’. There is no better choice to lead the 10th-anniversary charge and get the Rise crowds jumping.
Gorgon City take to the Rise turntables after 2024 highs including a Las Vegas residency at LIV and closing out the Yuma Stage at Coachella. They’ll be saving their best bass-heavy house as they come full circle from playing the first ever Rise Festival to landing for the Rise 10th celebrations. 
Hannah Laing is back at Les 2 Alpes and ready to bang out the up-tempo grooves that have seen her hit massive crossover success this year. Anyone who saw Sammy Virji’s set at Rise last year will be booking a ticket ASAP as the fast-rising star returns again with his unique meld of house, garage, and bass. Irish star blk. also did the business last year and is back to step it up with his tough brand of techno. 
Ewan McVicar is one of house music’s breakout stars of recent years, using his newfound profile to give back and build an underground scene in his home town of Ayr in Scotland. Now in demand all over the world, expect funked-up house that moves the dancefloor when he lands for his Rise debut. 
He’s joined on the lineup by Bou, fresh from huge success alongside headliners Chase & Status on hit single ‘Baddadan’. Arielle Free can always be relied upon to get the ‘party on top of the world’ started. The BBC Radio 1 star brings her ‘Free Your Mind’ party to Rise with a special high altitude ‘Freeze Your Mind’ show. Fast-paced techno comes from Black Traffic, while house and garage bangers arrive courtesy of Badger. Bristol’s rising star [IVY] skilfully mixes up the d&b breaks and pumped up 4/4 beats, and the beautiful voice from drum & bass smash hit ‘Bittersweet Goodbye’, Issey Cross rounds off an epic Phase 1 artist lineup.
With today’s announcement, Rise Festival has delivered a statement of intent. 10 Years of Rise will be an action-packed festival in the snow, backed by a cutting-edge soundtrack, set against the stunning backdrop of the Alps – a week-long experience they’ll be talking about for the next 10 years. 
Ticket options start at just £319 per person including a 6-day lift pass, available from www.rise-festival.com.

Cucina Sonora presents the SMILE EP
18 April 2024 - Vianney Ausseil
Italian DJ/producer Pietro Spinelli aka Cucina Sonora releases his SMILE EP, out now via PDR. 
Cucina Sonora, began blending classical piano with modern electronics in 2015, launching his music career with a self titled EP and subsequently toured Europe after the release of his album ‘Evasione’ in 2017. He then partnered with INRI Label and Sugar Music, releasing three singles that culminated to his second album ‘Notte.’ He then did a three-year stint in Berlin, until moving to Milan, where he started working on the EP.
A cross between electro-house and melodic techno, and inspired by the likes of Mr. Oizo, Justice, James Hype and more, SMILE is it’s own party, incorporating world music with electronic music.
“The EP was born out of pure fun, out of the need to go back to making music without any kind of expectations. I turned on every instrument I could turn on and lost myself playing any melody over any type of beat and then summing it all up into 5 straighter cut tracks. ‘Rubber Spaceship’s Mission’ is a simple song with a groove balanced between aggressive and bouncing, a song to listen to at maximum volume and jump up from start to finish.” Pietro shares with us.
Stream Rubber Spaceship’s Mission, and check out the EP below. Also make sure to follow Cucina Sonora on Spotify for more music.

Bendik HK remixes Gouldian Finch ‘Cocoon’ on All Ape
17 April 2024 - Shelley Dodds
Check out this fresh spin on a track from Gouldian Finch (aka Martin Horntveth), as he teams up with Bendik HK to bring us a revamped version of ‘Cocoon’. Bendik HK adds his own flavour to the mix, blending nu-wave jungle, electronica, and experimental vibes into the remix, keeping us hooked with every beat.
Bendik HK is making waves both at home in Norway and on the global stage with his killer studio work and electrifying live shows. He’s known for crafting rhythmic landscapes that harken back to the early days of Burial, mixing in lazy melodies and atmospheric progressions that paint vivid scenes of chem-trails drifting through cloudy skies. His tracks are like a journey into steamy atmospheres, filled with futuristic electronic sounds that’ll transport you to another dimension.
“I met Bendik when he was 11 years old. Already then, he was an enormous drum talent, but he also wanted to explore other instruments, as well as composition and production. I used every chance I got to help him into the spotlight; first by having him support my band Jaga Jazzist with a 20-minute drum solo when he was 12, and later in projects that amongst other things led to his collaboration with Pantha du Prince. When I wanted to make a remix album, I knew I had to ask Bendik.“ – Martin Horntveth





[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DjNlbqmgwOk?feature=oembed&w=1140&h=641]




Meanwhile, Martin Horntveth’s got quite the resume, co-founding the legendary band Jaga Jazzist and lending his talents to projects like The National Bank. He’s worked his magic with a diverse range of artists, from DumdumBoys to Malin Pettersen, showcasing his production skills time and again. And let’s not forget his contributions to TV series like “Himmelblå” and films like “For vi er gutta” and the Oscar-nominated “Do Not Split”. Gouldian Finch is just the latest chapter in his incredible journey.
“I’ve been contemplating creating this album since the early 2000s, but the process has always been interrupted by some better-paying gig or project. Most importantly, I’ve spent a lot of time trying to “land” on a sound that would encompass everything. It was only when I decided to put everything I love into the same pot that it clicked, and it made sense to release the music.” – Martin Horntveth
Gouldian Finch’s collaboration with Bendik HK is a testament to their creative genius and versatility in the music scene. With each new project, they push boundaries and redefine genres, captivating audiences worldwide. Together, they’re a powerhouse duo, blending their unique styles to create something truly unforgettable. Keep an eye on these two, because they’re just getting started on their musical journey.
Check out our premiere of Gouldian Finch ‘Cocoon’ (Bendik HK remix) below! The release drops this Friday 19th April, grab your copy here!

SONIC SOUL ORCHESTRA FEAT DURIEL DALEY ‘DRIPPING & DROPPING’ MIDNIGHT RIOT
17 April 2024 - Dan Prince
It’s a pretty big and brave risk to take on any track associated with the late great Frankie Knuckles, so when this landed in my inbox, there was a tinge of nervousness before hitting play. In truth, it’s primarily a reconstruction of Intense ‘Let The Rain Come Down’, with the dripping and dropping vocal element from FK’s ‘Tears’. Overall, it’s pretty faithful and respectful to both tracks, very well produced and features a great vocal from Duriel Daley who nails […]

Producer/DJ and ‘huge sci-fi nerd’ Rinzen finally drops his ten-track debut concept album, ‘Bend to the Light’, out now on This Never Happened. For this special release, the half-Japanese Los Angeles producer takes inspiration from a cyberpunk aesthetic, crafting his LP in a near-future high-tech world of interplanetary travel/civilisations, where all that glistens hides darkness … ‘Bend to the Light’ explores connotations of bending to the universe (spiritual), bending to an authoritarian future government (dystopian), and making decisions that bend […]
