​2011 proved to be an enormous break out year for electronic music in America. EDM not only took over the radio waves and everyone's Spotify playlists, but parties such as Electric Daisy Carnival and Monster Massive were, well, massive news.  It's a genre whose biggest players are also fresh meat. As proof, here are our top five DJs under 25 to watch out for in 2012.More >>

​Insomniac's White Wonderland, held at the Anaheim Convention Center over the weekend, was a huge success, despite Kaskade's cancellation. We saw so many people in white--white bras, white boots, white masks, white tights, white bandeaus--that we just had to post the hottest of the lot. Check them out after the jump, and if you see your picture, tell us in the comments!More >>

Tiësto's brand-new clothing line, called CLVB LIFE, debuts in Los Angeles tomorrow.

The DJ, who was recently voted "The Greatest DJ of All Time," has created a collection of "high-end t-shirts catering to club culture." Didn't Ed Hardy pretty much cover that already?

CLVB LIFE's website won't be operational until tomorrow, but here's a taste of what you can expect to find at Kitson (of course at Kitson) tomorrow.

David Guetta is the first DJ to have his handprints immortalized at Grauman's Chinese Theatre.

The French native, whose mystical ability behind the booth has the power to reconnect the continents, was recognized this weekend by the iconic Hollywood theatre.

The bright side? His hands won't lie alongside Judy Garland's, Paul Newman's, and Marilyn Monroe's.

My Little Pony's DJ Vinyl Scratch + Skrillex

​When we were watching Futurama the other night, we fell in love with DJ Scratchmo, the robot DJ who dropped some rump-rattling beats for Bender and his ladybot. We then realized how many other shows we've seen have featured cartoon scratchers. Here are our top five favorite cartoon DJs. (List by Mary Carreon and Lainna Fader.)

Massive Monster Fail

​
Well, it finally happened. Monster Massive 2011 was canceled today despite Go Ventures'  enthusiastic claims to the contrary. Armin van Buuren's Armin Only Mirage show dropped out of the festival due to "reasons beyond their control." Erick Morillo also bailed on the clusterfuck that has been Monster Massive 2011.

Luckily, ticket company Flavorus will refund tickets to Monster Massive. Flavorus said it will begin the refund process later today.

Monster Massive 2008

​

UPDATE: Armin van Buuren and Erick Morillo just announced the cancellation of their Oct. 29 appearances at Monster Massive 2011 on their websites. Read about it here.

Oct 12, 2011, 4:12 a.m.: Go Ventures posted an update on Monster Massive's Facebook page around 3:30 a.m. Wednesday. This is not the official statement Gerami promised would be released Tuesday on the rave's official website. They repeat their assurance that Monster Massive will happen at Oak Canyon Park yet offer and apologize to customers for censoring their comments on Monster Massive's Facebook page. 

Go Ventures apologizes to all of our Monster Massive supporters and patrons for not meeting the timeframe for providing an update on Oak Canyon Park. We realize that this creates more uncertainty for everyone but we are working night and day to clear up the situation. Monster Massive will be at Oak Canyon Park and we will release more information shortly. We apologize for deleting some comments but we have read them all and will address the issues with facts, not rumors or hear-say. We have worked for nearly 14 years building the Monster Massive brand and over a year planning this show. We do not plan on letting down any of our customers, production staff, artists, employees or supporters.

DJDC at last year's Pacific Festival OC, when he tried to break the record the first time

​Austrian DJDC is planning to break the Guinness World Record for the longest club DJ set ever again. The current world record DJ set stands with DJ King at 120 hours and 19 minutes; DJDC (born Rene Brunner) performed a 121-hour set at Costa Mesa's Sutra Lounge last year, at Pacific Festival OC, but apparently that time wasn't recorded by Guinness and therefore doesn't count as the official world record. (Bet DJDC thought that was a waste of Red Bulls!)

At Yost Theater, DC plans to reset the world title and perform for over 150 hours with only a five-minute break per hour set. He'd already set marathon performance records of 76 hours and 93 hours before his world record was beat by his rival DJ King at 120 hours and 19 minutes. Now DJDC wants to outplay all competition by over 30 hours! More >>
