In a massive move shaking up the electronic music landscape, Create Music Group has acquired Monstercat, the globally renowned indie EDM label. Known for its deep influence in music and gaming, Monstercat will continue to operate independently under its existing leadership.

Create plans to invest $50 million to supercharge artist development and global expansion. With hit releases from artists like Marshmello and Alan Walker, this merger combines Monstercat’s artist-first ethos with Create’s powerhouse infrastructure—unlocking new potential for creators worldwide. This deal sets the stage for a game-changing era in EDM and music tech.

ROZES, the voice behind The Chainsmokers’ hit “Roses,” has revealed she’s battling breast cancer. In a heartfelt Instagram post, the 32-year-old artist shared that the cancer has reached her lymph nodes and she is beginning her treatment journey.

Despite the difficult news, ROZES expressed unwavering determination to fight for her future with her daughter and husband. Known for pouring her life into her music, she assured fans that creativity will remain her outlet during this battle. Her openness and strength are already inspiring fans worldwide as she faces this challenge with courage and vulnerability.

John Summit is redefining rave culture, one burpee at a time. The superstar DJ and producer recently brought the heat to Club Space Miami—but not behind the decks. In celebration of Miami Race Week, Summit hosted a high-intensity interval training (HIIT) workout inside the legendary nightclub, giving fans a chance to sweat it out in a whole new way.

The event, cleverly dubbed “SUMMHIIT,” reflects Summit’s evolving commitment to wellness. In March, he announced completing an entire tour sober, and now he’s doubling down by turning iconic nightlife spaces into hubs of balance and health. Led by local fitness instructor Rick Chavez, the session was packed with fans and even featured guest participation from dubstep titan Sullivan King.

Known for marathon DJ sets that often stretch into the afternoon, Summit returned to Club Space that same weekend for his signature sunrise session, performing alongside Roddy Lima, Malone, Jason Rault, and resident DJ Monoky.

It’s clear Summit is proving you don’t need a hangover to have a good time—just some bass, burpees, and a healthy mindset.

In a powerful display of empathy and awareness, Brazilian DJ Mochakk halted his set mid-performance at Circoloco Napoli to help a fan in distress. As the energy peaked at the legendary Italian party series, Mochakk noticed people in the crowd waving frantically around an unconscious individual on the dancefloor. Without hesitation, he paused the music and called for immediate medical attention.

Videos captured by fans show Mochakk stepping away from the decks and urgently requesting help while instructing his team, including his videographer, to assist. His quick reaction ensured paramedics reached the collapsed attendee in time. Mochakk later shared on Instagram that continuing to play in such circumstances would have been irresponsible, saying, “People can die in these scenarios.”

He drew attention to past festival tragedies, such as the deaths at Taylor Swift’s Brazil show and the Astroworld disaster, stressing how dangerous inaction can be in densely packed crowds.

Mochakk’s move has been widely applauded by fans and fellow artists alike, reinforcing the need for crowd safety to be a top priority in live events. His actions remind us that the heartbeat of dance music isn’t just the beat—it’s the people.
