Inspired by his icons of evocative introspection, Jeff Buckley, Fabrizio De Andrè and Thom York, singer-songwriter, Mario Ciardiello, traced the reflectively candid echoes of his idols through the debut single, Miles Away, from his newly initiated solo project. Under the moniker, Nocebo, Mario is carrying the legacy of intimate songwriting on his guitar strings. In the production of his debut, raw unfiltered emotion rushes to the surface of the soul-bearing sonic escapade, which ensues from a stripped-back indie folk acoustic performance before a subtly striking Radiohead-esque crescendo delivers a rush of momentum and visceral emotion, visualising how affections ebb and flow through us, culminating in explosions of rumination. The versing of abstract consolation to an enigmatically tortured protagonist seeking sanctuary grips you through its compassionate intensity; even if you can’t find a piece of yourself within the narrative, you’ll find yourself in awe of Nocebo’s proficiency in hitting raw nerves with his arrestingly unique sonic signature. Miles Away is now available to stream on Spotify. Review by Amelia Vandergast

The British artist took to Instagram to announce their collaboration, telling fans it took him “around the other side of the world” earlier this year to meet with Cox.

“I had my most incredible adventure going and spending two days with @carlcoxofficial at his inimitable studio in Australia, learning all about his passion and love of music, his medicine, which he has shared with us,” he said.

“I so got to feel the love that radiates from Carl for his collection. I’m grateful to Carl for having trusted me to explore his vast collection of vinyl, which allowed me to create this artwork titled ‘Carl’.”

The upcoming collection will hit Brighton’s Enter Gallery on July 20, and will feature records selected by Cox, with the DJ saying (via MixMag): “Each record I choose has a story behind it and it was very emotional choosing the records that helped shape my journey.”

He called his collection, made up of 150,000 “all-time absolute superstar” records collected by both him and his late father, “the best of the best”.

“Every single one of these records are not promos, I literally went to the record store and stood there and went through the music,” he said of his records, which span multiple genres like jazz, funk, reggae, acid house and more.

He touched on the process of working alongside Vessey on the project, and said: “Watching Mark work really makes me understand how you can look deeper into art, and it makes me realise what a privilege and responsibility I have when sharing my love of music with the dancefloor.”

Vessey has also worked with artists like Fatboy Slim and Simon Dunmore on the Collections series. You can buy tickets for ‘Carl Cox by Mark Vessey’ here.

Cox also recently teamed up with Paul Oakenfold to have an “absolute blast” on their first ever collab, ‘Concentrate’.

Drama ensues! World-Known Dutch DJ and producer Hardwell decided to call out SAGA Festival during his set on day one. It seems like equipment was malfunctioning so he decided to stop his set, grab the mic, cuss out the event, and acusse them of not paying him for his involvement. However SAGA clapped back at him on social media. The festival is currently taking place in Bucharest July 5-7. In addition, it offers a wide array of artists ranging from Nicki Minaj, Armin van Buuren, Deborah de Luca, and more.

Hardwell at SAGA

As seen above, Hardwell addresses the crowd and puts the organizers on blast for the equipment failure. Moreover, the artists claims the festival did not pay him for his set but he still went there to perform as his commitment for his fans outweighted the inconvinience.

Nevertheless, the festival was quick to fact-check Hardwell’s hard claims. Per below, the festival explains that had the DJ brought it to attention that the equipment was faulty, they would’ve rushed to help and make sure his set ran smoothly. Furthermore, they stated that the equipment came to Romania from the Netherlands, at the same time the DJ traveled to the event. Lastly, the organizers claim that the DJ was indeed paid, and the stage was functional for another major Headliner Will Sparks. Saga emphasized that other big names in the industry performed in all other stages without any issue.

What team are you on? Was Hardwell on the right to call out the event halfway through his set? Should we believe the SAGA’s claims that they would’ve cooperated with the artist? Did he get paid? So many questions, so little answers. We hope that we can find the truth in the situation and have both parties receive their best outcome, whatever it may be.
