Benny Benassi Interview
"Push Me/ and Then Just Touch Me/ Til I Can Get My/ Satisfaction" are the words heard in clubs around the world in the smash hit "Satisfaction" by Benny Benassi. Coming from Reggio Emilia in Italy, Benny works with his cousin Alle as part of the Off Limits team organized by Larry Pignagnoli. Influenced by 80s electronica, Benny calls his unique style of dirty electrohouse "hypnotech."

April Harris of Seduction Interview
A staple of early 90s dance music, the ladies of Seduction gave us hits like "Could This Be Love," "Two to Make It Right," and "Heartbeat." With constant requests for live performances, original member April Harris has reformed the band and is readying a brand new album for release. It may "Feel Brand New," but Seduction is back and ready to give us dance music that we love.
