Hungarian DJ/producer Dirty Palm has teamed up with Spanish producer duo Bad Reputation to release their latest hit single, “Spellbound.” The song features the soulful vocals of UK singer and producer Diamond Eyes.
“Spellbound” has already gained a lot of attention in the Future House scene since it was first premiered by Martin Garrix in his DJ Mag #1 2022 liveset from the Empire State Building. The track has been one of the most requested IDs in the scene ever since. The song is a perfect blend of the unique styles of both Dirty Palm and Bad Reputation, with Diamond Eyes’ soaring vocals taking center stage.
Dirty Palm and Bad Reputation first met when Dirty Palm discovered some of their unofficial remixes on SoundCloud. Though their styles are similar, Dirty Palm was drawn to working with up-and-coming artists because of their raw production process. By adding his own touch and production experience, they were able to create a more mature and festival-ready sound. Both artists made unofficial remixes during the pandemic, but they decided to team up and produce an original song that would fit in clubs and festivals now that the pandemic is over. “Spellbound” is an excellent example of what can happen when two talented producers come together to create something special.

“On April 28th, Skysia presents a groundbreaking storytelling experience with his album, ‘Here.’ Accompanied by a feature-length film, this album is a journey through the full spectrum of life, from birth to death. The opening track, ‘Time,’ sets the stage for the beginning of life and the introduction to the world. The album then guides the listener through a captivating journey of the human experience, culminating in the track ‘Breathless Voyage,’ which symbolizes the end of life and the crossing over to the other side. Finally, the outro track, ‘Return,’ brings the listener back to the beginning, completing the cycle of life and reminding us of our connection to the universe. ‘Here’ is a powerful reminder of the importance of memory and how it shapes our humanity. It invites the listener to reflect on their own life journey and to find their center amidst the magic and struggles of being alive.”

SWIMM- Talk To Me
After a 6-week North American tour and a flourish of lauded singles boasting multiple high profile spots (from a Kelly Slater documentary, to the Hulu feature film The Unicorn, a national Progressive Insurance commercial, and a Juneshine commercial and ambassador event), LA-based psych-pop group SWIMM prepare to release their sophomore LP Best Comedown Ever on August 10.
The first single from the album, “Talk To Me,” is a playfully sardonic take on modern polyamory — its hook is a soulfully stacked harmony that repeats, “who am I to stand in the way?.” SWIMM’s penchant for writing seraphic hooks over infectious groove is nudging them towards the rarified air of dance juggernauts like Jungle and Caribou.
