Watch Live Sets from Ultra Music Festival featuring ZEDD, Steve Aoki, Afrojack

By |April 3rd, 2017|Categories: Music News|

Ultra Music Festival took place recently in Miami from March 24-26. International level electronic dance producers joined together to share the hottest music in grand fashion. The event sold out in advanced, but they did offer a live stream that we shared during Ultra 2017. Now we look back at the best sets from the weekend. Personally, I connect with Steve Aoki's music the most. His beat structure and dedication to his craft are two of the main reasons his music resonates with me so much. Tiésto threw down an impressive set. Watch back over the madness from Ultra

The music industry has gone through some major changes since 1997. Before the Internet reached mass market, consumers would go to central record stores, produced by large-scale corporate record companies, and buy copies of albums for sale.

As indie musicians took control of their music, they also took control of the financing and advertising their creative work. Overall, a majority of these startup record labels

Music and dance research has opened up different points of view on the health benefits that physical exercise, such as dancing, can lead to when practiced. One of the biggest topics that we cover is music. Some readers might consider music coverage 'fluff' or 'infotainment.' I find that music is a vital part to living a healthy and happy life. Dance and physical exercise are ways to keep your body in tune, flexible and adaptable. It is important to balance and treat our minds, body and spirit. NPR's social science correspondent Shankar Vedantam goes over some of the benefits connected
