“I Just Do Me” – Alexa Borzyk on Living Life 100%

Alexa Borzyk began her musical journey at the age of 8 as a violinist and a self-taught guitarist at the age of 15. After many years of involvement in Montreal’s Psytrance scene, her journey towards techno began as a collector of Dance music during her time in nursing school. Her trademark of high energy and spikes of 90s techno is born deep in the crate where she digs up her Belgian/Polish roots. From enigmatic breakbeat and trance samples offering elements of nostalgia, Alexa invites the audience’s participation whose musical appreciation eclipses that of just one genre.

Since 2016, having played Illusion Festival, the SATosphere, Salon DaomĂ©, Stereo, and Piknic Elektronic, Montreal’s techno scene is familiar with Alexa’s sound. From opening duties for Richie Hawtin and Reinner Zonneveld to playing along with acts such as VTSS and Stephanie Sykes in self-produced events at Le Livart and EntrepĂŽts Dominion. Her first release of 2022 was a 4-track EP debuting on the Belgian techno label Coincidence Records. In her young career, her track has earned its play at the world-renowned Tomorrowland by Nur Jaber, which was live-streamed from the festival. With her knowledge of production and passion for music, she doesn’t plan to stop releasing anytime soon. Keep your eyes peeled as there is more to come from this fresh talent.

    BREAKING: Tomorrowland Unite Stage in Spain Caught Fire Resulting in Festival Evacuation

    A large stage at Tomorrowland Unite in Spain caught fire tonight local time, resulting in the mass evacuation of up to 22,000 festival goers that were attending the event.

    The festival is a satellite event that is part of a global series happening alongside Belgium’s Tomorrowland, which is currently in the middle of hosting its second weekend in Belgium.

    According to eye witnesses the fire erupted following a series of fireworks, although no official word has come out from the festival yet as to the causes of the fire. Social media accounts state that the fire engulfed the stage in a “matter of seconds” while others report hearing some explosions as the fire raged on.

    At this moment there are no reports of injuries from the incident.

    TomorrowWorld’s Future Uncertain According to Festival Spokesman

    aTomorrowWorld

    Yesterday the dance music world learned that SFX Entertainment officially filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy, the latest step in the company’s attempts to take the company back private and out of its seemingly never-ending financial woes.

    SFX Entertainment holds a large portfolio of dance music entities and festivals across the United States including Beatport and the American version of Belgium’s famed Tomorrowland. While the former released a statement that things were business as usual, news coming out of TomorrowWorld’s camp were not as positive.

    Local outlet Georgia Unfiltered reached out to Tomorrowland spokesperson Debby Wilmsen about the future of the festivals in Belgium, Brazil, and the USA. Key parts of her statement distance the Brazilian and Belgian editions of the festival series from the event that takes place each fall in Atlanta, Georgia:

    “Since 2013 we have collaborated with SFX for the foreign editions of Tomorrowland held in the USA and Brazil. However, we have noticed that our vision and goals, including a long-term strategy, are different from those of the publicly listed company.”

    Wilmsen went on to assure that while the future of TomorrowWorld is uncertain, Tomorrowland and Tomorrowland Brasil will remain unaffected: “The Chapter 11 procedure will have no consequences for Tomorrowland in Boom,” she says. “The festival in Belgium is created, organized and managed for 100 % by the Belgian team. Tomorrowland Brazil will also take place as planned two months from now in Itu (Sao Paulo). Tomorrowland Brazil is being organized in close consultation with the Belgian team by a motivated Brazilian team that is able to work independently of SFX in North America for all aspects of the event.”
