Progressive House
Chosen For The Main Stage – Cain You Feel It?
Youngster CAIN PRIDMORE stars at GOODLIFE and drops ‘XERO’ on AtomicSky Recordings
Sometimes joining a DJ competition is a very smart move. Ask young artist CAIN PRIDMORE. He entered for a spot at the Goodlife Festival and after multiple voting sessions he succeeded to claim a mainstage spot. Not bad for someone who just turned 17! Cain is very determined to make music his full time career, but it’s more than just a way to make a livelihood, he lives it and breathes it….
CAIN PRIDMORE’s new track is called ‘XERO’ – a high energy progressive house track with electric guitar synth… It’s a club track that gained quick recognition on several radio shows such as Kazuya De Jong’s Washine Machine, AtomicSky Recordings and on Cain Pridmore’s’ very own radio show called Xcellent Noises.
Before he won the Goodlife DJ competition, Cain always wanted to play at a big festival and as such entered the GoodLife competiton ever since the age of 15 without any luck…
But hard work and persistence paid off big time. He conquered that stage and thanks all those who voted for him, because without that massive support he knows he wouldn’t have had the chance. Cain lists artists such as Tom Tyger, Tom Staar, Kryder, Ivan Gough, Corey James and Nick Galea as people who have supported and encouraged him in recent times. Especially Tom Tyger who shared much of his time and knowledge.
Cain Pridmore: “Its pretty surreal to be able to chat to legends and people who are my idols about my music, I have been so lucky to have them in my corner but also just the added inspiration their tracks and the connection gives me.”
Cain is now waiting to reach the age of 18 so he can tour the clubs. “I’m excited to be able to unleash the music that I love in a dark club environment packed with true music lovers. I love to be able to take them on a journey through the music I choose to play, well, that’s just an honor…”

Nytrix returns to Steve Aoki’s Dim Mak with his stunning new single “Midnight,” featuring LINK, a dark Progressive House gem that positions the LA-based artist as both a strong producer and talented vocalist. “Midnight” opens with a combination of breathy, ethereal vocals and ominous melodies, leaving the listener wondering as to the genre of this boundary-breaking track. Nytrix picks up the pace with an undulating bassline that gives the production dancefloor credibility while maintaining the feeling of driving down a windy road on an ocean cliff at night with its hauntingly beautiful danger. Following a recent release on Dim Mak, “Midnight” continues to prove Nytrix’s power as a multitalented and multifaceted artist.
Nytrix caught the attention of the electronic music scene in 2015 when his first single – “Take Me Higher,” peaked at #7 on the Billboard Dance Chart for an astonishing 13 weeks, and he hasn’t let it go since. As a DJ, producer, and vocalist with a genre-bending music catalog ranging from melodic dubstep to various bass and electro-house recordings, Nytrix seamlessly fuses genres together for a sound that’s all his own. His music has found a home on labels such as NCS, Monstercat, Dim Mak, Proximity, and more, and he’s currently gained a viral imprint of over 100M streams, which is steadily growing. In fact, 4 of his past releases have also been featured on Billboard’s Dance Club Songs chart (all reached Top 10) and spent 51 weeks on the chart altogether. Nytrix has also had live performances and DJ sets that toured internationally through China, the UK, Canada, and the U.S. and has continuously delivered powerful records that have resonated with fans around the world. He’s only going up from here.

Fancy Inc
Coming from the south of Brazil, the music producer duo Matheus Rodrigues and Adriano Dub, aka Fancy Inc formed in 2014. They reached notoriety in 2019, an extremely prolific year for them due to a steady stream of hit releases. From “My Girl” in partnership with Vintage Culture, which reached #1 on the Beatport Dance Chart, to “In The Dark,” which reached #1 on the US Billboard Dance Chart and has been certified Platinum twice, to “Say My Name” with Bruno Be. Only these 3 tracks garnered more than 50M plays collectively across all digital platforms. Climbing the charts and having support from the main players in the market, Fancy Inc became a reference in the scene for popularizing the progressive house genre in Brazil. It’s impossible not to recognize the duo’s signature style when listening to their music, which led to invitations to officially remix David Guetta (Warner), Becky Hill (Universal), Joel Correy & MNEK (Atlantic), and Robin Schulz (Warner) to name a few. In addition to working with the biggest labels, in 2021 they released their single “Free” in collaboration with Vintage Culture and Roland Clark. In less than 2 weeks, the track reached the #1 spot on Beatport’s main chart.
