Eduard Shyfrin’s blues-rock outfit, Shyfrin Alliance, announce two brand-new remixes of single ‘Whiskey Blues’ by house pioneer Todd Terry.

The remixes reimagine the smoky, guitar-driven atmosphere of the original track through Todd Terry’s signature dancefloor energy, blending deep grooves, rhythmic house beats, and soulful textures into a fresh crossover release designed for both club audiences and longtime fans alike.

Originally celebrated for its gritty storytelling and blues-infused sound, ‘Whiskey Blues’ takes on an entirely new dimension in this collaboration, introducing the band to electronic music listeners worldwide.

“Whiskey Blues is not just a song, it’s a state of the soul. The remixes were chosen not to replace the original feeling, but to give the songs emotions a new pulse, allowing it to reach people in a new way.”

Todd Terry, whose pioneering work helped define global house music culture, delivers not one but two, remix’s that balance classic club sensibilities with modern production, creating a track equally suited for late-night dancefloors and summer playlists.

Beyond his musical pursuits, Eduard Shyfrin is internationally recognized for a multifaceted career spanning science, business, philosophy, and the arts. Trained as a physicist and later emerging as a successful entrepreneur and industrial leader, he has built a reputation for integrating rigorous intellectual inquiry with creative expression.

In parallel with his business achievements, Shyfrin has devoted significant attention to philosophical and spiritual studies, authoring works that explore the intersection of ancient wisdom traditions, modern science, and human consciousness. This synthesis of disciplines informs the artistic vision behind Shyfrin Alliance, where music becomes another medium for reflection, meaning, and emotional connection.

Stay tuned, as the Todd Terry mixes of ‘Whiskey Blues’ touch down.

New EDM Friday Sep 11 brings together new singles, crossover collaborations, remixes, and bass-heavy releases covering melodic techno, trance, house, bass music, dance pop, and electronic dance. From David Guetta and Hypaton with You and I, Me and You to Armin van Buuren and Pete Tong with Poppy Baskcomb on Toca’s Miracle, Kaskade with Satisfy You, Dillon Francis with Cry Myself to Sleep, the Monstercat vs. NCS 15 Year Showdown, and Tape B and Effin with I’ll Never Know, these are the tracks you should not miss on this week’s New EDM Friday.

David Guetta & Hypaton – You and I, Me and You

David Guetta and Hypaton reunite on You and I, Me and You, a new single through Atlantic and Warner Records that had already been tested across David Guetta’s summer shows. The track pairs soaring vocals and euphoric drops with the refrain “Me and you, together whatever we do,” continuing the nostalgic dance direction behind their partnership. It follows their official version of La Bouche’s Be My Lover, which has passed 350 million streams, along with recent 2026 releases involving Bonnie Tyler and RAYE that have also reached tens of millions of streams. After a summer that included UNVRS, Ushuaïa Ibiza, the Monolith tour, Stade de France, and Coachella’s Quasar stage, You and I, Me and You opens New EDM Friday Sep 11 with one of the week’s biggest dance releases.

Armin van Buuren & Pete Tong ft. Poppy Baskcomb – Toca’s Miracle

Armin van Buuren and Pete Tong revisit Toca’s Miracle with Poppy Baskcomb, bringing the classic trance record into this week’s New EDM Friday. The release is listed as Toca’s Miracle (Extended) on Beatport, with Armin van Buuren, Pete Tong, and Poppy Baskcomb credited on the track. The original Toca’s Miracle became one of dance music’s most recognizable early 2000s records, making this version another update of a track that has stayed close to trance and club culture for more than two decades. For Armin van Buuren, the release follows another busy run of trance-focused records, while Pete Tong brings his long-standing connection to dance music history into the collaboration. With Poppy Baskcomb adding the vocal presence, Toca’s Miracle brings a classic name back into New EDM Friday Sep 11 through a new 2026 version.

What started as grassroots, techno-driven warehouse parties has officially exploded into the largest techno festival the city has ever hosted.

Over Labor Day weekend on September 4th & 5th, local organizers Twisted Lines debuted Twisted Festival at Atlanta Utility Works. The result was an unapologetic, high-energy atmosphere that marked a turning point for Atlanta’s underground music scene.

The Atmosphere & Stages: Industrial Architecture Meets Raw Energy

​Historic masonry and sprawling ironwork set the tone immediately. Atlanta Utility Works provided an ideal industrial playground for the event. Overall, accommodating three distinct environments designed to give dancers room to move freely throughout the venue.

The Machinery: Enclosed within towering factory walls, this stage delivered the unfiltered, driving industrial grit techno was built upon.

The Ruins: Set inside the open-air foundry framework. This space paired weathered brick structures with precision laser projection as the backdrop.

The Industrial Forest: Tucked away behind the warehouse, this outdoor area combined strobes and organic canopy cover, creating a hypnotic open-air space.

Beyond the architecture, the crowd culture immediately stood out. The dancefloors felt genuinely welcoming, safe, and community-focused, prioritizing mutual respect and a shared love for heavy rhythms over club pretension.

Heavyweight Sound & Relentless Selectors

A proper techno gathering lives and dies by low-end fidelity. Twisted Lines brought in a heavyweight Funktion-One sound system, delivering chest-rattling bass without sacrificing midrange clarity. Acoustic bleed across the three stages was virtually nonexistent, and the audio stayed locked in without a single outage over both nights.

That acoustic power backed a stellar international and domestic roster featuring artists such as Kobosil, Onlynumbers, Ueberrest, EMILIJA, Fenrick, BAUGRUPPE90, and Selective Response. The curation bridged relentless techno, hard grooves, and acid textures. This kept the energy moving from early evening through the late night.

Logistics & Transit

Navigating logistics can make or break an urban event, but access remained straightforward throughout the weekend.

Location & Rideshare: Situated in East Point, the venue sits roughly 10–15 minutes from Atlanta’s International Airport. Rideshare fares generally fluctuated between $5 and $25 depending on departure timing and surge pricing.

Accommodations & Walkability: With multiple hotels located within a 5-minute drive, transit was minimal. The surrounding area also proved easy to navigate on foot, making for a manageable 20- to 30-minute walk (around one mile) to nearby lodging.

On-Site Flow: Bar queues moved quickly, water stations were easily accessible, and entry lines stayed organized even during peak hours.

​What’s Ahead for 2027

Twisted Lines took an ambitious step forward with this debut. They turned underground passion into an expansive, community-centered festival format. The organizers have already confirmed that the festival will return next year, with word spreading that the experience could expand across a full three-day weekend. If this first edition proved anything, it’s that Atlanta’s appetite for underground techno is not just thriving–it’s shaping the future of regional electronic music events.
