Carl Cox Creates ‘XMphony’ Using Sounds From The New BMW XM

Carl Cox has been flexing his creative muscles in a recent collab with BMW where he’s created a song using sounds from the new BMW XM.
While to some this collab may seem a bit out of the blue it is in fact a match made in heaven as Carl Cox is a prolific petrolhead.
Carl Cox’s history with BMW goes all the way back to his first car in 1990, the BMW 316 E30. It started a lifelong love for the brand with him always having at least 1 BMW in his impressive collection of cars. This continued adoration for the brand was bound to lead to some form of collaboration and what better way to bring these two worlds together than with music. Created using sounds from the new BMW XM including the rumbling V8, doors shutting, warning beeps, etc, ‘XMphony’ is a show of Carl Cox’s creative chops. He manages to transform these ordinary sounds into an emotional and powerful piece of techno fuelled by his love for motorsports.
Not only does Carl Cox have an impressive car collection for the road, but he has some impressive cars for the track.
Cox is a big figure in drag racing where instead of getting his adrenaline from DJing to thousands of people, he gets his adrenaline from driving cars with thousands of horsepower. Amidst his collection is a 5000bhp Pro Mod which he has fired down a ¼ mile in under 6 seconds. As well as this he founded Carl Cox Motorsports in 2013 with which he’s sponsored and supported various teams and drivers around the globe on 2,3, and 4 wheels. Cox’s face is one you see a lot in the music world, but in motorsports you see him everywhere. Moto GP, Extreme E, Extreme H, the Isle of Man TT. If there’s engines and wheels, he’ll be there.
Getting to see artists enjoying their own vices outside of music is always interesting and Carl Cox is certainly enjoying the world of speed and noise. ‘XMphony’ offered a new challenge to the legendary DJ of meshing precision engineering with precision production which he smashed in his typical fashion. For those that find themselves partial to music and motorsport, keep an eye out on the track for the blinding blur of Carl Cox Motorsports.

Petersky (PL) Unleashes New Single, ‘Take It’

Released on LVLD Music, ‘Take It,’ is Petersky’s latest record, delivering a deep tech-house sound to nightclub dancefloors. Its rolling groove has the power of keeping crowds on the move, providing a hot atmosphere to ravers.
The bassline is probably this song’s most important aspect, giving life to the production in a fun way, while maintaining the underground vibe of ‘Take It.’ Think of the famous sound of Chris Stussy tracks, but reimagined in Petersky’s own fashion.
Simplistic but catchy, the song can be the highlight of a set. Its punchy bass adds to the funky bassline, while hypnotic stabs join during the breakdowns, tingling the eardrums of listeners.

DJ Madam Filth Drops Drum and Bass Track ‘Got That Blow’

DJ Madam Filth Returns With Drum and Bass Track ‘Got That Blow’
Las Vegas-based DJ Madam Filth has released her second track on the Dancefloor Mafia label, titled Got That Blow. Known for her presence in the U.S. drum and bass scene, she brings another fast-paced offering that reflects her commitment to building both her sound and her label’s direction.
The track runs for just under four minutes and wastes no time setting its pace. It opens with a rhythmic pattern that leans into familiar DnB territory like quick tempo, tight percussion, and minimal melodic distractions. There’s a focus on keeping the structure clean and the transitions purposeful. Instead of throwing in multiple breaks or sound detours, the song keeps the listener on a straight course with steady layering and repetition.
There’s a vocal sample running through the main progression, acting as both a hook and a rhythmic anchor. Rather than relying on dramatic builds, the track maintains a linear intensity. That choice gives DJs room to use it mid-set to either maintain drive or transition without losing pace.
More Than Just a Single
Got That Blow is not just another release. For DJ Madam Filth, this marks another step in solidifying her platform. As a resident on Vibe 99.7FM’s Bass Nation and co-founder of the Konkrete Jungle event series, she’s not new to the genre or its surrounding community.
The Dancefloor Mafia label, which she launched independently, serves as a space for her to release her own music and to experiment with tracks built directly for the kind of dancefloors she plays regularly. Her style often leans toward straightforward arrangements that favor flow over theatrics. Got That Blow fits into that catalogue clearly.
For Listeners and DJs Alike
This track isn’t trying to reinvent the genre. It’s meant for settings where speed, precision, and familiarity matter. The production is tight, with all elements serving the rhythm rather than competing for attention. For fans of minimal, high-speed DnB, it’s a track that can slot comfortably into playlists or live sets without dominating them.
DJ Madam Filth continues to approach her releases with intention. Got That Blow may not be overly complex, but it’s well-built for the purpose it serves. If you follow her work—or just want a no-frills DnB addition to your library as it’s worth a listen.#
