And the next single to be released from Avicii's new album is...

With a smash hit already under his belt for his upcoming album #TRUE, Avicii has decided that "You Make Me" will be the next single to be released:  

You think it will reach #1 again? I think it has a great chance. 

Have you ever heard of Dennis Waakop Reijers? Well you should...

With all of this talk about "star/silent-partner relationship" as of late, I thought it would be a good idea to post the most important interview that I've ever read in this realm when Beatport sat down with Dennis Waakop Reijers last year. Who is he you ask? Well according to discogs.com:

"The "unknown" producer of Tiësto. Dennis and Tijs met in the summer of 1998. Tijs asked him as a test to do a remix request for him. Since then they have worked together.

Tijs refers to them as "The Band". In Dennis' contract it says he can work with others, and release own material, but according to himself he doesn't have time for it."

With only 1 track listed officially under his name in Beatport, Dennis Waakop Reijers has admitted that he had a part to play in the production on two of Tiesto's most famous tracks:

"Q: What would you say your proudest production moment is?

Dennis Waakop Reijers: There are several. From the “Silence” remix I produced for Tiesto, which was a big success in a lot of countries, to Tiesto’s live opening in the GelreDome, using ”Adagio For Strings.” Of course, also the first time I heard my own production on radio."

Who cancelled the Daft Punk appearance on Colbert?

According to this latest Huffington Post article reporting on a recent interview of Colbert, it would seem that it was possibly Daft Punk that cancelled their highly anticipated appearance on the show:  

"Colbert says that he still was unsure why exactly the cancelation occurred. "MTV says they had an exclusive arrangement, Daft Punk says they don't have an exclusive arrangement," he told Mecurio. This corresponds with MTV's official statement, which was that the cancelation was the choice of the band, not the network."
