Belgian techno DJ Amelie Lens bravely revealed her second miscarriage, aiming to raise awareness about this often-silent loss. In a heartfelt social media post, she shared the pain of losing a pregnancy at two months, her second such experience after a private miscarriage in India.

“Miscarriage is invisible grief,” Lens wrote, noting one in five pregnancies ends this way.

Despite her grief, Lens finds healing in music, planning to perform with her husband by her side.

Polish DJ Tom Swoon, now Dorian Numan, is back after a tragic 2017 DUI accident that claimed a life and led to a nearly five-year prison sentence. Once a rising star in EDM, signed to Spinnin’ Records and supported by Tiësto, his career halted after the crash.

Now, a decade later, Numan is ready to rebuild. “I’m a different person,” he shared on Instagram, promising fresh music from scratch. His journey of redemption aims to bring light through sound, one step at a time.

Swedish House Mafia’s label, SUPERHUMAN, has launched a sleek new “DemoDrop” site, making it easier than ever for producers to submit music. The platform allows MP3 or WAV uploads alongside basic details, cutting through the clutter of traditional email submissions.

In a forward-thinking move, SUPERHUMAN requires artists to confirm proper sample clearance before sending tracks—a proactive step in protecting creative rights. “We know there’s talent everywhere, but not always an easy way to get it heard,” the label shared. This streamlined approach could open doors for rising producers, offering a direct path to one of dance music’s most influential teams.

Grammy-winning producer Cassian has been forced to cancel several tour dates after undergoing emergency appendix surgery. The Australian artist revealed on Instagram that his condition escalated from mild stomach pain to urgent surgery within 24 hours, thanking doctors for a smooth procedure.

The health scare means his Dallas show and Montréal’s îLESONIQ set are postponed, but Cassian plans to resume touring later this month, with stops in Poland, Budapest, Turkey, and Ibiza’s [UNVRS] club on August 26th. While recovering, Cassian joked that his appendix “will not be joining the party.” Fans eagerly await his return to the decks.
