DJ Cquenz "How Did You"

Today, we present you with a glistening new, electro-offering from Belgium's DJ Cquenz.

Today's release comes in the shape of the highly charged "How Did You", a track that boasts a heavy bass line, pitched vocals, bags of energy and a festival ready sound that pays homage to the impending arrival of summer, sunshine and the party-season!

Let the Antwerp-based dj/producer introduce you to his stimulating electro-bass driven sound, a journey of clever production work and a dramatic signature sound that will live long in your memory.

"I wanted to create a festival track where the energy continued throughout. The chopped pitched vocals on "How Did You?" support the breakdown, which rhythmically doesn't stop, instead growing slowly toward the drop"

Iconic Platinum-Selling Vocalist Anita Ward Returns To Celebrate Pride 2016 With Empowering Dance Anthem "Another Bad Mistake"

Alongside the global celebration of June as Gay Pride Month, the LGBT community抯 momentous strides have a potent new party anthem from a voice that has been there since the beginning. As equality continues to become the undeniable law of the land, beloved platinum-selling dance artist Anita Ward is back with the single release of "Another Bad Mistake."

Her maddeningly catchy uptempo confection - which playfully acknowledges a relationship that might have betanter been left unrequited - is the latest release from New York City-based independent label Young Pals Music. The song was co-written and co-produced by Sahin with hit songwriter Bernadette O扲eilly, who has also worked for three decades in artist relations, management and song placement. Canadian singer/songwriter Karine Hannah is also a co-writer.

Opening with a force field of percolating, nervous and cleverly dissonant rhythms, "Another Bad Mistake" roars into a raucous frenzy of mad beats in the chorus, as Ward exclaims, "She turned my star-filled sky into rain, as the blood froze up in my veins, Cause she抯 aimless and brainless� It抯 dangerous how shameless you are/She was a bad, bad, bad mistake."

Ward is, of course, renowned for her seminal No. 1 single "Ring My Bell," which roared to the top of the Billboard Hot 100, Disco, and Soul Singles charts in 1979. It also reached No. 1 on the U.K. Singles Chart, while striking the top 5 in a dozen other countries. And since, demonstrating the enduring appeal of her treasured hit, in 2002, Ward performed "Ring My Bell" in New York City's Times Square as part of its official New Year抯 Eve celebration. In 2005, she headlined New Year抯 Eve on Beale Street in Memphis. She has also toured the world, including a heralded 2006 turn with comrades Chic, Village People, Thelma Houston and Rose Royce for the FIS World Cup in Zagreb, Croatia.

"Another Bad Mistake" is the fifth single release from "Pop," the first full-length namesake collection from Young Pals Music founder Ayhan Sahin. In April, the album was awarded by The Akademia Music Awards as well as The Global Music Awards for Best Rock Song for previous single "Drink." The album offers 12+ diverse vocalists & musicians across a myriad of styles, including R&B & soul, dance, jazz, country and of course� pop.

As a songwriter and producer, Sahin has achieved notoriety in pop, rock, dance and musical theater, while working with Olivia Newton-John, Melba Moore, Phoebe Snow, Broadway star Bianca Marroqu韓, Turkish superstars Sezen Aksu and Sertab Erener, Sandra Bernhard and five "American Idol" finalists. He has appeared live on Telemundo, while Sahin抯 music has been featured on CNN, The Los Angeles Times, Playbill, MTV, Yahoo! Music and "The Wendy Williams Show"; and heralded by USA Today, New York magazine, MTV and The New York Daily News.

Zaena Morisho Releases Smash Singles 'BS' & 'What Do U Want' In Anticipation Of The Highly Anticipated EP 'Zaena Now' To Be Release Worldwide July 29

Female recording artist & performer ZAENA MORISHO (or ZAENA M. for short) is releasing her new EP 'ZAENA NOW' worldwide on July 29. Teaming up with industry powerhouse marketing team INDIEPOWER and industry leading distributor INgrooves, Zaena is making moves, releasing singles and is performing on more and more higher profile shows and industry events.

In anticipation of the long form release are the release of the current singles "What Do U Want" and "BS" and videos. Zaena is originally from Africa and raised in Houston Texas. She moved to Los Angeles a few years ago to be closer to the industry and pursue music, modeling and entertainment industries at the highest levels. The song "What Do U Want" tells of the challenges in a relationship, where the highs & lows can be confusing and draining, asking your mate 'what do you really want from me'. Falling in & out of love with a person can be taxing on the mind and soul. 'BS' is another tale of falling for someone, who already is in an another relationship, unbeknownst to you, & the games that go on with this 'double dealing' two timer. Enough of the BS 'games', as it's hard to give your all to a relationship that isn't giving you a singular focus back.

Other songs on the 'ZAENA NOW' EP include 'Diva', 'Be Your Girl', & 'Into You'. 'Diva' is an empowering song, by an independent woman, who is not waiting for a man to 'complete' her. She is making moves on her own, & in control of her own destiny. ZAENA is a main featured performer at three major BT AWARD Weekend Industry Showcases (www.VIPawardShowcases.com) and the upcoming global music & entertainment conference IES � the Indie Entertainment Summit in Los Angeles (www.IESfest.com). Her fanbase is growing worldwide, building anticipation for the EP and follow up album, slated for a 2017 release, followed by an international tour. ZAENA is one strong artist making major moves, independently and proud. www.ZaenaNow.com

DJ Maestro Becomes The First DJ To Perform On Lokrum For The Soundplate Records Showcase - Part Of Croatia Music Adventures 2016

On 28th July DJ Maestro will perform an intimate set to 200 ticket holders on the island of Lokrum - famously the location for the city of Qarth in Game of Thrones - for the Soundplate Records showcase, as part of Corona Sunsets Croatia Music Adventures (CMA) 2016.

The Dutch artist, whose newly released 'Nina Simone Little Girl Blue Remixed' album for Soundplate is the most recent addition to a discography which includes nine platinum albums for Blue Note.

CMA is now in its second year and distinguishes itself as a festival by curating a line-up that connects world class musicians with exceptional Croatian locations and deliberately keeping the ticket numbers low so that the experience is more akin with a secret gig or underground party.

Headliners of CMA 2016 include chart topping acts such as Sigma and Clean Bandit, who will perform on Dubrovnik's Banje Beach - a beautiful sundown party location and one of the top ten Mediterranean beaches - on 28th and 29th July. Corona are the key sponsor of the CMA 2016 event, making this the first 'Corona Sunsets' event in this part of Europe.

More DJs and acts to be announced.
Matt Benn, founder of Soundplate Records, who partner with CMA for the first time this year says:

"We could not be more excited to announce our partnership with Croatia Music Adventures (CMA). The organisers of CMA have sourced some of the most beautiful venues for music in the region and are working hard to program some very impressive line-ups for this year's event. At Soundplate, we always believe in working with like-minded, creative people on innovative projects and CMA felt like a natural fit for us.

CMA is different from other festivals in the region, it not only showcases amazing music but it does so while shining a light on the natural beauty of the island. By picking venues that have rarely been used for events of this scale and limiting ticket numbers CMA has created a unique atmosphere and something very special that we are proud to support.

As part of our partnership we will be bringing the incredibly talented Dutch DJ/producer, Maestro to the festival for a special showcase of his 'Nina Simone - 'Little Girl Blue' remix album which we released in the UK. We hope to expand on this relationship in years to come and to continue bringing amazing events to incredible locations in Croatia."
