Oh Snap! Markus Schulz + Danny Tenaglia confirmed for Bal en Blanc 2012

So now I'm officially excited to start planning a trip to Montreal that Markus Schulz has been confirmed for the Bal En Blanc event in Montreal on April 8th, 2012. I think these guys are doing it right by booking a House DJ such as Danny Tenaglia (who will be playing for 5 hours to close out the night) who will delight the more hardcore EDM community out there while booking such strong trance DJs as Armin and Markus Schulz. Every set that Markus posts on his global broadcast DJ podcast are bangers that just make me want to move in my computer room each and everytime he puts out something new. To say that I'm excited to see him play live is an understatement.

The latest video for the song 'Glow' from the San Francisco based trio M Machine is receiving a lot of buzz from the Internet tonight. Check it out here. I think the video looks pretty fantastic with amazing visuals combined with just the right amount of 'WTF' to make it go viral.

The M Machine will be coming to Ottawa to perform live at the Ritual Nightclub on Thursday, February 2nd. For more details check out our calendar page.

Armin Van Buuren confirmed as the first DJ announced for the "Bal En Blanc" event in Montreal

The next Bal en Blanc event on April 8th, 2012 in Montreal, Canada has finally announced their first DJ booking for the trance room: Armin Van Buuren. I'm really happy to hear that the promoters went with Armin instead of someone like David Guetta which was Tomorrowland's first booking announcement that drew a lot of criticism on the internets. Armin has the ability to mix his more commercial trance with lesser known tunes which can usually satisfy the needs of his fans while electrifying the dance floor.

Amazingly enough this event has garnered so much buzz that the first batch of $95 pre-sale tickets were sold out in 6 minutes on January 14th without even announcing a single DJ! The current ticket price is $117 + around $15 of fees so get them quick before the price goes up.
