Swedish House Mafia Masquerade Takeover

Swedish House Mafia's swan song parades through Los Angeles in March.  Its called Masquerade Motel, but may as well be a full on music festival with the way it is being marketed.  The acts final west coast performance is a two day extravaganza taking place at L.A.'s State Historic Park near downtown.  



Although Saturday March 9th is already sold out, you can still get tickets to the March 8th show here.  Support performers include Nero, Alesso, Clockwork, Monsta, Zedd, Sub Focus, No_ID and more.  

SUPERGOODMUSIC is hosting a contest for tickets to the show.  We will be sending a lucky winner to night 1 and another lucky winner to night 2 - each with a homie or homette of their choosing.    The way you enter is by emailing contest@supergoodmusic.com, reposting this link on your twitter, facebook or blog and/or tweeting out @supergoodmusic @livenation_LA #SHMcontest.  We will choose winners sometime before March 1st - so the earlier you enter, the better!

Cirque Du Soleil Goes EDM in 2013 with MGM Resorts & The Light Group

Cirque Du Soleil is getting the electronic music facelift in 2013 with the help of The Light Group and MGM Resorts International...and its going to be legit.  

The LIGHT at Mandalay Bay is launching in March 2013 as Cirque Du Soleil's first nightclub venture - entering with all the shock and awe that their numerous productions are known for - including video mapping, lighting and sound and special effects from experts Moment Factory.   The 38,000 square foot venue will "serve as a laboratory, very much like [Cirque Du Soleil's] special events and projects have done int he past, for different and new artistic possibilites," said Gay Laliberte, Founder of Cirque Du Soleil.  Joined by Amy Thomson, manager of Swedish House Mafia, and Light Group founder Andrew Sasson, the trio's joint venture looks to bring theatrical nightlife to a whole new territory in the epicenter of America's wild nightclub scene - Las Vegas.

You might be able to guess what artists are likely in the running to be part of some of the opening nights (ahem - Swedish House Mafia maybe???), but you can check all updates at http://haveyouseenthelight.com as well as the venues social media pages.    It's probably not a bad idea to book a room at Mandalay Bay for every weekend in March - it may give you your best chance at getting to experience The LIGHT!

SWEDISH HOUSE MAFIA DOCUMENTARY PREMIER!!!

DJ collective and dance chart toppers, Swedish House Mafia, stop in LA today (actually within the hour) to screen their documentary Take One. The premier comes amidst a very exciting week for the superstar DJ collective, who also released their album, Until One, which serves as a soundtrack to the film, just yesterday.

I'm anxious to see the film that MTV calls “one of the most ambitious documentary film undertakings with a dance music focus," and the times calls "Spinal Tap for the Acid House generation." With great buzz surrounding the film and release, I can only hope the premier it as epic as their dance tracks.
