Watch out for: Einsauszwei

This German DJ duo started a project that I personally think is genius. Taking deep house or tech house tracks and pairing them with movie clips so perfectly you’d think that they were meant to be that way. They’re nothing but moving and romantic.

Check out more of their clips on Youtube and like them on Facebook :)

NERO LIVE & DILLON FRANCIS @ Myth!

ricky-jay — Thu, 16 Feb 2012 19:58:00 -0600

Sound In Motion is extremely proud to present the extraordinary *LIVE* electronic music act – NERO. This dynamic duo has been extremely successful worldwide, and is known for creating Dubstep Symphonies! This incredible group doesn’t stop there… they also produce drum and bass and house music! You do NOT want to miss this incredible show!!

Quick Bio…

NERO is a British electronic music group originating from London, England. Daniel Stephens, Joseph Ray, and Alana Watson on vocals make up this dynamic band. The group is best known for producing drum and bass, dubstep, and house tracks.

Daniel and Joe have been friends since childhood, and both grew up in Northwood, London. Growing up, both boys were influenced by classical music and each played classical instruments. Ray played classical guitar, and Stephen was influenced by his father to play jazz cello. Stephens attended a specialist music school, but enjoyed making electronic music outside of school. The boys met at age 15 and shared a common interest in creating electronic music. They began working together at the young age of 17, and set up a home studio together in Stephen’s bedroom. The duo became seriously interested in DJing after seeing M-Beat at a London club in 1994.

Nero’s debut release was entitled “Space 2001,” which was a part of the “Straight Outta Leicester” three piece vinyl LP that was released on Reformed Recordings in 2004. Nero’s debut dubstep release was “This Way.” Nero’s first nationally recognized track was a remix of “Blinded by the Lights” by The Streets. This track was frequently played on UK radio, and was being played by top DJ’s including Tiesto, Diplo, and Skream.

In April of 2010, the duo released their first official single “Innocence” in the UK. The single was released as a double A-side with the track “Electron.” The track reached high numbers on UK Singles Charts on the Dance and Independent genre charts. Following that incredibly successful single came “Me & You” in December of 2010. This single also hit top numbers on the singles chart. The duo’s third single, “Guilt” came out in April of 2011.

Nero’s debut album, “Welcome Reality” was released on August 15, 2011. This album features tracks like: Innocence, Guilt, Me & You, Promises, Crush on You, Reaching Out, and Must Be The Feeling. The track “Promises” has been extremely popular and was named “The Hottest Record in the World” by Zane Lowe. “Promises” debuted on the number 1 spot in the UK singles chart. Their album “Welcome Reality” also debuted at number 1 in the UK album chart. Nero released their first music video “Reaching Out” in December of 2011. The video charted at 17 on the UK Dance Chart.

Nero went on a live show tour in the fall of 2011, and will be back in Minneapolis, MN on Monday April 9, 2012!!

bpomerenke — Wed, 15 Feb 2012 21:45:00 -0600

Not only does Sound In Motion bring you all the big names to the cities, we’re constantly on the look out for new up and coming talent. Pierce Fulton is definitely one of them.

This kid grew up with all kinds of music around him. He’s been in a couple rock, metal and raggae bands, even the school orchestra. Pretty sure that’s given him an edge to producing his own tracks, including his new single “Who Wants Spaghetti?”.

With his debut album, Pardon My French, Pierce has been featured on Above & Beyond’s Trance Around the World and EDX’s No Xcuses radio shows.

You can find Pierce’s tracks on SoundCloud, Beatport, and Youtube.

DJ Pauly D

ricky-jay — Wed, 08 Feb 2012 00:14:36 -0600

Paul DelVecchio, better known as “Pauly D” from the hit show “Jersey Shore,” will be making a special trip to MYTH Nightclub in Maplewood, MN to rock a party Jersey Style! DJ Pauly D will be spinning hit songs, and providing plenty of great music to get everyone’s fists pumpin’!

DJ Pauly D started his music career playing local shows at small clubs at a fairly young age. One of his biggest influences in his musical career is DJ AM. In 2009, DelVecchio was cast for the hit MTV show “Jersey Shore,” where his popularity quickly grew. In 2010, DJ Pauly D released an original single “Beat Dat Beat (It’s Time To)” through iTunes. 2011 was a very successful year for DelVecchio in many aspects of his career. During 2011, Pauly D began playing huge shows, winning many awards, and signing record and merchandising deals with extremely popular artists, television programs, and companies. In both 2010 and 2011, DJ Pauly D was nominated to participate in the “America’s Best DJ” competition. Pauly D opened for Britney Spears at six of her North American shows in 2011, including two shows in Las Vegas and a few other shows on the East Coast. In early 2011, Pauly D signed a contract with the Palm Casino Resort in Las Vegas and will now be their exclusive resident DJ. In December of 2011, DJ Pauly D announced that he will be signing a three-album record deal with 50 Cent under the label G-Unit Records & G-Note Records. Pauly D will also come out with his own style of headphones under the G-Unit & G-Note brand. Pauly D has many big plans for 2012, including his own spin-off television show of Jersey Shore. However, this TV show will focus on DJ Pauly D’s music career. Filming for the show begins early 2012. Pauly D is blowin’ up (just like his hair)!

Still haven’t figured out what you’re wearing for the White-Out Party? Guess what?! Here’s more time. This theme has been postponed until Gareth Emery hits the stage Feb. 18 and in the meantime you get to prep yourself for a whole different kind of theme: Group Therapy.

In homage to their latest album, let’s make February 4th a true group therapy session by showing your support with everything rainbow you got. It’s time to steal the bracelets from your kandi kid neighbor and throw on every bit of color you got. Rules still hold: the more awesome the costume, the higher chances for prizes! Let Above & Beyond be the best treatment you’ve ever gotten in this Sound in Motion rehab. ;)

Welcome Above & Beyond with a theme, costumes, and prizes!

gojinx — Mon, 23 Jan 2012 16:00:33 -0600

Perhaps as you walk outside in the morning, you take a deep breath of cold air and silently swear at the minor frostbite you feel coming on your extremities. Or perhaps you feel nostalgic towards last winter when you could barely see your car through the piles of snow? No? Didn’t think so. Either way it’s that time of the year to celebrate the winter spirit, snow or no snow, and what better way than a theme party?!

Let’s greet DJ Magazines #5 trance group Above & Beyond with some white-out Minnesota love. Dress code for the night? You guessed it: all white! If Sensation Amsterdam can rock it, so can we.

So then what’s a good reason to take out your dusty white wig and paint your nails? Because the more white you wear, the more chances of you winning amazing prizes. You dressed up as Mario characters for Infected Mushroom and were rewarded with gift cards, why not go for round 2 of winning? Charlie Sheen would be proud. And no, you will not be banished from the venue for not owning a pair of white pants by our winter goblins.

Got Trance in Your Pants?

bpomerenke — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 20:53:31 -0600

I know all of you fellow EDM loving fans are patiently waiting for the next Sound In Motion show. Good news? Above & Beyond is just a mere two weeks away!

Avicii Pro Tips

tylerhamptonmusic — Thu, 05 Jan 2012 14:21:30 -0600

PRO TIPS for anyone attending the SOLD OUT Avicii show tomorrow night @ Epic:

1) Arrive early! The show is sold out, so lines are unavoidable, but arriving early gives you the best chance of getting in the door quickly and getting the most party for your money. Doors open @ 8pm!

2) Have your ticket(s) out, unfolded, and ready to go when you get in the door. Also, do not cut off any part of the printable ticket. The entire ticket is necessary to ensure quick entry.

3) Bring canned food! We are collecting food for Second Harvest Heartland. Our goal is 3000 cans.

4) There is a coat check. But remember, the show is sold out, and that’s just another line you will have to stand in.

5) If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to flag down a Sound In Motion crew member - we’ll all be wearing SIM lanyards.

See everyone tomorrow night!
