Valentino Khan Unveils Video For “Pony” That Will Leave You Wondering What You Just Watched
Valentino Khan is back with a mind-bending music video to accompany those dancefloor-ready beats.
A few weeks ago Valentino Khan delivered his new booty-shaking Bass House track “Pony”, and now he’s back with a mind-bending music video to accompany those dancefloor-ready beats. Be warned: this one will make you do a double take. We’re introduced to the video’s unlikely stars, a group of older women who conduct some questionable rituals in the high desert, with plenty of equally dubious dance moves in between. However, the leading role is the mysterious white horse that serves as the track’s namesake, which befalls a shocking fate at the video’s end. See for yourself by pressing “play” on “Pony” and see if you can spot Valentino Khan in his cameo! Stay tuned for more news about Khan’s upcoming EP and exciting collaborations coming soon.
The world was introduced to LA-based DJ and producer Valentino Khan in 2014, when he burst onto the scene with his debut EP “In Khan We Trust” on Skrillex’s OWSLA label. Khan’s sound possessed a unique versatility, incorporating elements of trap, bass, hardstyle, house and more into a driving, often heavy sound that found homes on labels such as Mad Decent, Spinnin’ Records, and Ultra. In 2015, Khan’s original track “Deep Down Low” became an international sensation, earning the title of “Most Played Track” of the year and topping Sirius XM’s #1 Song of 2015 on Electric Area. Since then, he has earned a reputation as a remix master with official renditions of RL Grime’s “Pressure,” Alison Wonderland’s “Good Enough,” Calvin Harris’s “One Kiss” and more. His original productions include “Pump,” which has over 23M streams on Spotify, “Gold” with Sean Paul, “Novocaine” with Kayzo as well as production credits for the likes of 2 Chainz, B.O.B., Dizzee Rascal, Iggy Azalea, TI. and more. Khan has set the stage for his best year yet, and with the release of “Pony,” he’s well on his way to achieving it.

The newest release from the Protocol Recordings camp comes from veterans Teamworx and debutant on the label MR.BLACK. Their collaboration “We Are Lost” rides high on minimalistic progressive melodies and a steadily grooving bassline, allowing the soulful and slightly ethereal vocals to add emotional meat to its sonic experience. Feeling just as at home played through your headphones, “We Are Lost” carries both radio and dancefloor appeal. The collaboration is the first between the Israeli artists; Teamworx is known for their collaborations with Nicky Romero and some high profile remixes. MR.BLACK has previously released on Revealed Recordings, Spinnin’ Records, Musical Freedom, and Dharma and did an official remix for Tiësto’s “Boom.”
Founded by Nicky Romero, Protocol Recordings is one of the leading imprints for innovative house music; it boasts a roster of heavy-hitters complemented with immensely talented up-and-comers, all with a diverse range of sounds that are guaranteed to light up a dance floor. “We Are Lost” marks Teamworx’s epic 10th single on the label since the Israeli exports first exploded onto the scene with Corey James and their track “Make The Crowd Go,” which received massive support from industry heavyweights, such as Steve Angello. They’ve collaborated with Nicky himself on “Champion Sound” and “Deep Dark Jungle,” as well as remixes for his tracks “Only For Your Love” and “Ring the Alarm.” In 2018, they played at EDC China as well as Protocol’s showcase at ADE, and this summer performed at Ultra Korea. MR.BLACK is most known for his original single “Boomshakalaka” and his remix of Tiesto’s “Boom,” both of which have amassed over 3M streams on Spotify. He has garnered support from industry heavyweights including Tiësto, David Guetta, Martin Garrix, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike and his home-label boss Hardwell. On Hardwell’s Revealed Recordings, MR.BLACK’s hits “Party People” and “Hu-Ha” hit number 1 on the Beatport charts. “We Are Lost” combines these two extraordinarily talented artists for the first time, and we can’t wait to see what the future holds for each of them.

R3HAB kicks off the new decade with “More Than OK” in collaboration with singer/songwriter Clara Mae and producer Frank Walker – a melodic and vibey tune that’s full of hope as much as heartache. The track opens with dreamy, organic instrumentals that create a sumptuous backdrop for Clara Mae’s stunning vocals as she performs lyrics about a couple losing the magic in their relationship. “More Than OK” is a song about never settling for love or life that doesn’t set your soul on fire every day, a message that many will relate to as they move into a new year of goals and resolutions. The new single is R3HAB’s first collaboration with Clara Mae, and the second time he works with Frank Walker, who enlisted R3HAB as a remixer of his “Heartbreak Back” in 2018, which went gold in Canada. Check out what all three artists had to say about this exciting collaboration below.
“I’ve been a fan of Clara Mae’s voice for quite a while, and when I got the chance to work with her, I didn’t hesitate one minute. ‘More Than OK’ is a cool vibey song with great vocals, including a message everyone can relate to, and a perfect way to kick off the new decade.” – R3HAB
“‘More Than OK’ is a reminder to never settle for less than what you want in life and in love. You want every day to feel special, and love like every day is your last. Working on this record with R3HAB and Frank Walker has been so much fun. I love the vibe they brought to the track. Shooting the video was amazing. It was a real challenge doing underwater scenes but also an incredible experience, and we had lots of fun together. So happy with how it all turned out, and Mario, the director, made the video look so beautiful!” – Clara Mae
“I’ve been a huge fan of R3HAB since I first started producing music and am lucky to call him a good friend as well. Around a year ago I reached out about getting him to remix my single ‘Heartbreak Back,’ which went gold in Canada, so I’m super fired up that we finally found the right record for us to collab on. Clara Mae is unbelievably talented, and her voice on ‘More Than OK’ really made this one special!” – Frank Walker
Over the last eight years, the Dutch/Moroccan artist Fadil El Ghoul – better known as R3HAB – has established himself as a leader at the forefront of modern electronic music. His talent has been called the “future of the craft” by the likes of Forbes and Billboard, and he’s circuited the globe’s best clubs and festivals, all without the backing of a formal record label. In 2017, R3HAB independently released his debut album “Trouble” through his imprint CYB3RPVNK, which amassed over a half-billion streams globally and officially placed R3HAB among electronic music’s heavy hitters. He made number 14 on DJ Mag’s Top 100 list in 2019, topping the charts with tracks like “Lullaby” and “Hold On Tight,” while his sophomore album “The Wave,” revealing more complex, emotional and experimental layers of himself, has amassed over 250 million streams on Spotify alone. In 2019 R3HAB’s “All Around The World” with A Touch of Class quickly became his biggest ever record already topping 200M streams across platforms and achieving gold & platinum status in 8 countries, while the follow-up saw him team up with none other than ex-One Direction phenom ZAYN. Stay tuned to see where R3HAB’s journey takes him in 2020!
After spending years studying jazz vocals and piano in her small town of Gävle, Sweden, Clara Mae garnered attention by co-writing with the likes of David Guetta, Tiesto and Martin Jensen. She soon after co-wrote and featured on KREAM’s “Taped Up Heart,” which boasts over 130 million streams and reached the top 25 on Billboard’s Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart. Her debut EP Sorry For Writing All The Songs About You (available now via Big Beat Records) collectively boasts over 75 million worldwide streams to date. The 6-track collection was heralded by the release of “Rooftop,” collaborative single “Better Me Better You” with Jake Miller (which the duo performed on the Elvis Duran Show and MTV’s TRL), “I’m Not Her” (praised as “a pop anthem” by Culture Collide) and “I Forgot” (deemed “the perfect anthem” for running into an ex-flame by Refinery 29). Most recently, Clara released tracks “Lost” and “Unmiss You,” in addition to touring in support of singer-songwriter Ella Vos in North America and European tours with singer-producer Alex Aiono and singer-songwriter Carlie Hanson.

Clearly, N2BLÜ provides singalong moments with their Pop/EDM crossover style. As a duo, they have a very interesting musical background. On the one hand, Jonathan Arceneaux is a vocally trained singer who loves writing contemporary songs. In the past, he explored the worlds of classical and musical theatre. While on the other, Konstantin Smorodnikov has always been interested in electronic music production and sound engineering. He’s originally from Russia, but he moved to America at the age of 18, where he began a specialization in this artistic field.
Together they joined forces and blend their abilities to create unique and catchy tracks. One good example is the new single, “Match My Crazy”. In my opinion, this tune talks about finding a good connection or the right person that meets your personality. Beyond this, Jonathan is sharing his personal experience through the lyrics in order to empathize with listeners who also struggle with love and relationships due to anxiety and depression. Nowadays, I love how music is a good vehicle to help end the stigma against mental health. Another highlight is the lyric video below, which encourages you to intone this song. Without further ado, start practicing for karaoke nights right away!

Bates Belk pays tribute to the Orlando shooting victims with a new song and EP titled “Dancing With Bullets”. Our heart breaks every time we remember those 49 innocent lives of the Pulse nightclub back in June 2016. For this reason, the producer is using his music to achieve a meaningful way of raising awareness about the gun violence problem. On a side note, royalties from this tune will benefit the onePULSE Foundation, which remains active in the fight against hate and discrimination.
Belk who is an American citizen, relocated to Germany to evolve as an electronic musician. Nowadays, he is in disagreement with the gun culture in the states because it takes the lives of hundreds of people year after year. With this in mind, here we have another upbeat protest song that addresses this issue just like Madonna’s “God Control”.
In his latest music video, you can learn the most important facts about the tragedy. Besides, this is a special song that spreads a message of freedom and living life to the fullest. Sung by Coco Safir, “Dancing With Bullets” forms part of ‘The Dark Spektrum’ album to be released on March 6th. Believe it or not, this upcoming material will feature the participation of 50 Berlin-based artists and even an orchestra. Isn’t that impressive?…
