A couple of weeks ago, on an exclusive NYC yacht party, Bounce Boat, we had the pleasure of sitting down with the jovial DJ legend and man behind Sirup Music and PinkStar Records, bossman EDX A.K.A. Maurizio Colella. The Swiss/Italian DJ has had quite the career thus far, and in between topping Beatport’s Best Progressive House Artists and touring the world, Maurizio continues to improve his sound and deliver to his fans. While touring can take a toll on anyone, before the insane schedule of this year, EDX released his 14-track debut album titled “On The Edge” in 2012. With so many things on his plate, one of them also includes hosting his very own radio show on Sirius XM called “No Xcuses” where he recently announced a brand new giveaway to Nocturnal Wonderland on his jet (enter here) to see him play. While we are pretty sure EDX has been DJing longer than Madeon has been alive, you can delve into the mind of EDX and find out as we discuss his influences, his "No Xcuses" radio show on Sirius XM and his recent No Xcuses Ibiza contest and more. While we may have said Bounce Boat was on their final voyage this summer in last months review (here), it is certainly not the last party on the Hudson for the year. Bounce Boat will be returning on October 25th. Just in case you cannot hear bits and pieces of the interview (thanks to the loud people on the boat!), we've included a transcribed version below. Enjoy our interview with EDX, and check out the bonus re-cap video after the transcribed interview of his summer European shenanigans. Ciao!
This Sunday afternoon spotlight takes a deep look into hip-hop rising star and rapper Hopsin. Hopsin released his first single in 2008 and first studio album in 2009. He began gaining traction in the hip hop world with his release of "Sag My Pants" in 2010, and took off after putting out such hits as "Nocturnal Rainbows" and "Ill Mind of Hopsin 4." On top of his musical successes, he may be most notorious for his eerie, all-white contact lenses and shaved eyebrows. His aggressive lyrics and unconventional appearance may be a form of self-expression, or a facade to hide his inadequacies as an underground hip hop artist.
