The Drums

In many The Drums has always belonged to Pierce, but it wasn't until 2016 that he reclaimed ownership.

Back in 2008 Pierce and his childhood best friend Jacob Graham conceived of a collaboration that was

never intended to become what it did. “Jacob and I were writing pop songs. I didn't think anybody would

hear it. I recorded it with broken equipment and guitars that were out of tune.” Pierce put it on MySpace

and weeks later interest was lining up. “I scrambled and found the first people I could to turn it into a

band.” The runaway train lasted four albums.

KSHMR

Niles Hollowell-Dhar had his first taste of mainstream success in 2010 when he produced the number #1 song in America “Like a G6” under the alias “The Cataracs”

Many platinum recordings would follow as Niles worked with some of the largest names in music: Beyonce, Justin Bieber, Dr. Luke, Carlos Santana, Enrique Iglesias, Selena Gomez, Pitbul, Robin Thicke, 50 Cent, Snoop Dogg, David Guetta, Jason Derulo, Sean Paul, Becky G, Benny Blanco and many more.

After collaborating on a dance recording called “Tsunami” in 2013, Niles’ interest in pop music began to fade. Under the alias KSHMR, short for Kashmir (the region in India his ancestors are from) electronic dance music would become his new music outlet, as he watched “Tsunami,” an entirely instrumental track, top charts in countries all around the world.

KSHMR’s rise to global recognition happened nearly overnight. In 2015 he entered DJ Mag’s top 100 DJs (a globally recognized pole of hundreds of thousands of voters from around the world) at #23 — the highest entrance of the year. The following year he would be voted #12 as he toured the world, playing his music for millions.

Coined the “prince of cinematica,” blending hard kicks and melodic elements of the dance scene with orchestral compositions has become his trademark. Much like dance music was the next step after the world of pop, composing and scores is surely his next.

The Martinez Brothers

The Martinez Brothers, an American DJ duo, are two of the most recognizable global stars in house, techno, and club culture. Introduced to disco and house by their father from a young age, they come from the roots of New York's legacy club, The Paradise Garage. While producing a plethora of music, they also run their own music labels, Cuttin' Headz and Tuskegee with Seth Troxler. Since first hitting the road at ages 15 and 17, they have gone on to sell out some of the world’s largest venues, performing regularly in hotspots like Ibiza—quickly rising to become leaders within dance music's new guard.

superduperkyle

KYLE knew at an early age that music was his destiny. As a kid, the Ventura, CA rapper went on a journey to develop one of the most unique voices in music. These days KYLE’s raps have accumulated millions of streams, with his breakout chart-topping single “iSpy (feat. Lil Yachty),” now 4x RIAA-Certified platinum, reaching #1 on the Billboard Hot Rap Songs and #4 on the Billboard Hot 100. The song – which was released in December – continues to hold strong in the top 10 on iTunes’ Hip-Hop/R&B Songs chart and has amassed over 263 million streams. The video for “iSpy,” directed by Colin Tilley, has over 100 million views on YouTube. 2017 has already proved to be KYLE’s year. The 24-year old rapper has been named as part of XXL’s annual Freshman Class for 2017, gracing the publication’s esteemed cover alongside the likes of A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie, Playboy Carti, XXXTentacion and PnB Rock, to name a few. KYLE has also recently delivered high-energy performances on multiple esteemed stages, including the BET Awards Red Carpet Special, the ASCAP Rhythm & Soul Music Awards, and Jimmy Kimmel Live. With numerous sold-out nationwide tours already under his belt and an international headline tour coming up, KYLE is making it clear that he’s just getting started and isn’t slowing down any time soon.

Gold Star

Formerly of The Sister Ruby Band, Rabenreither began his solo project in 2013 and is readying the release of his third album 'Uppers And Downers', the follow-up to his linear, mid tempo, more traditionally written 'Big Blue' LP. “What artists do is reactionary to what they did before,” he reasons. “I wanted to do the opposite and make this record a collection of songs.” Hence the title, which isn't a strictly literal reference to different mental states, or even medication. It's a reference to the diversity of song styles.Initially he wanted to have a different producer per song, like Kanye West. That wasn't feasible, but the essence of that ambitious drive remains. “The idea was to achieve a deeper scope, a more dynamic range: slow songs, fast songs, less genre specific, capturing all the moods.”

Yuna

Pop/R&B artist, Yuna has spent the last year in the studio writing and working on her fourth full-length album Rouge, set for release this year via independently popular./Verve. With her latest album, Chapters boasting the chart-topping single "Crush" feat. Usher and the heart-wrenching masterpiece "I Used To Love You" feat. Jhene Aiko, Yuna has paved a lane of her own – pulling influence from R&B, pop and jazz to develop a distinctive genre-transcending sound.

MadeinTYO

MadeInTYO (pronounced Made In Tokyo) comes to us by way of his young collective known as The Private Club of which he is CEO. MadeinTYO, does not have your typical backstory - son of a Naval Officer, he moved around frequently until his family landed in Tokyo during the start of his high school years. Influenced by the foreign culture around him and inspired by his brother 24HRS (a successful artist in his own right) Madeintyo began to take music seriously. He uploaded a song to his brother's page & a movement was born.

Cornelia Murr

Often sounding like she could be transmitting from some inter-dimensional sock hop or theTwin Peaks Roadhouse, Murr’s songs are transfixing and moving. From the Cocteau Twins-eque “Tokyo Kyoto” to the girl group evoking “Who Am I To Tell You” to the Old Weird American folk of closer “You Got Me,” Murr alchemizes personal experiences, reflecting on the need to claim personal space, and translating her inner reserve to listeners. Rounding out the album is a cover of Yoko Ono’s 1973 feminist anthem, “I Have a Woman Inside My Soul.”

Murr has long kept her songs close – shielding them from “roommates and lovers” – but Lake Tear of the Clouds represents her desire to no longer hide herself or her music away. Both intimate and psychedelic, the album explores womanhood and the personal revelations that accompany maturing into oneself. “I’ve spent so long/In a silent space scream/Now I’ve forgotten how it feels/To know someone’s listening,” Murr sings on “Billions.” But Lake Tear of the Clouds presents Murr’s voice as one well worth hearing.

24hrs.

In 2016, a new musical wave began to quietly build under just a name—24HRS. As songs like “Time,” “U Know,” “Back For Me,” and “Deepend” generated millions of Soundcloud plays in a few months’ time, chatter erupted throughout the worlds of hip-hop and R&B. The man born Robert Davis and previously known as the rapper Royce Rizzy decided to flip the script, re-envisioning his sound, style, and even his name…Having been through the game once, Twenty used his personal experience to help his younger brother MadeinTYO avoid many music industry pitfalls on his way to multi-platinum success. Vowing to keep things close-knit and family oriented, The Private Club movement was born.
Throughout 2016, 24HRS quickly ignited the next phase of futuristic R&B rooted in nineties vocal prowess and 21st century nocturnal rap production. He unveiled a series of EPs, including Open and Sunset Blvd. Ty Dolla $ign tapped him for “My Song” from Campaign and “Back Up,” while he cameoed on Blackbear’s “moodz” on the chart-topping digital druglord, “Down for Me” off Step Brothers by G-Eazy and Carnage, and more. He teamed up with Post Malone, Gucci Mane, and Juicy J for tracks as “You Know” cracked 2.2 million Spotify streams. Along the way, OVO Radio consistently spun his music. Simultaneously, XXL, Pigeons & Planes, Complex, and many others extended critical praise.

Nick Waterhouse

All of the new Waterhouse songs sound big. Brawny and muscular. The lyrics are suspicious, outraged and, at times, very vulnerable (muscle is just flesh, after all).Waterhouse uses an economy of words to deliver complex, coded messages. He offers upequal parts criticism of the time we live in and innate human flaws. He paints relationships under the cover of darkness, slashing through neo-noir fantasies that are romantic, blood-spattered and bracingly aware of the powerlessness felt among people, amid the rapid onslaught of commercialism and technological progress. And, as has become his signature, he throws in a tune written by a close friend. On this record, he covers “I Feel an UrgeComing On” in tribute to the song’s author, Nick’s own mentor and collaborator Joshie JoArmstead, who wrote music with Ray Charles and sang as both an Ikette and Raelette in the’60s and ’70s.
