With more than 40 shows under her belt this year, electronic music artist Aluna Francis had one aim for Miami-based music festival III Points: to reconnect with her Black, queer fanbase. An hour before stepping on stage Saturday, she stopped to snap pictures, give hugs and later invited the Edm enthusiasts backstage as she cooed over a thunderous bass line.
“Connecting the Black ravers with a meet-up seems like a small thing, but today it’ll be everything to me,” Francis tells Rolling Stone from a III Points lounge. “Because the...

Aluna is feeling glamorous, and she has every reason to. On July 7, the musician who makes up one-half of the electronic duo AlunaGeorge will release her second studio album MYCELiUM. It arrives nearly three years after her solo debut Renaissance — it was, at least in its title, ahead of its time. Aluna has released a scattered collection of singles over the past year, but for the announcement of her album, she assembled a dream team of collaborators to help preview the record on “Oh the Glamour.”
The single finds Aluna joined by Mnek,...

Over the Halloweekend, this writer made the trek out to the Nos Events Center in San Bernardino, California, for the return of Insomniac’s Escape Halloween music festival after having to skip last year’s festivities due to the ongoing pandemic, and for both nights, I had an absolutely incredible experience that renewed my Halloween spirit and further fueled my love for electronic music.
On Friday night, we made our way through thousands and thousands of attendees as we descended upon the Nos grounds that were fully decked out for Halloween, and we spent most of our evening at the Grimm Stage, where the triple threat lineup of Eric Prydz, The Chainsmokers, and DJ Snake capped off the evening and nearly blew the roof off the outdoor venue. Considering this was my first live music event post-pandemic, it was just nice to immerse myself in all things Edm for the evening after all these months.

Lady Gaga released her highly-anticipated album Chromatica on Friday. The LP is the artist’s first studio album since 2016’s Joanne, and her first new-music release since the soundtrack to 2018’s A Star Is Born.
Intended as a celebration of house, techno, and other genres of electronic dance music, Chromatica saw Gaga collaborating with producers known for their Edm work, such as Skrillex, BloodPop, Burns, Axwell, and Tchami, as well as hitmaking powerhouses like Max Martin.
“I will do whatever it takes to make the world dance and smile,” she told Paper magazine in March.

“Stupid Love,” the lead single from Lady Gaga’s upcoming sixth full-length album, is dropping on Friday, February 28th at midnight Et, the star announced via social media — and, unsurprisingly, the fans are speculating.
One theory is that the album will be called Chromatica, as the word can be found on the single art. It doesn’t hurt that the word “chromatic” has both aural and visual definitions that are very Gaga-esque: “[Music] relating to or using notes not belonging to the diatonic scale of the key in which a passage...
