Carpe That DM 😈 - Tiesto's lawyer stole $70m from him, Starkillers calls Avicii a "dead, drug addicted loser," Sam Feldt is throwing a health music fest in Chicago, and much more...

Oh hey, how are ya - it’s Fourth Co.

Everyday, about 150,000 new songs are released to the world.

That means, there’s been over 2,850,000 tracks released since Beyonce one a rigged Grammy.

Only a handful of those deserve your attention, so let’s pitter patter…

Steal This - my most played song this week (probablyšŸ‘‡):

Why it gets me going - Doobie Brothers turned house? Doesn’t get any funkier or fresher than this type of house music. I’ve walked into the kitchen more than once with my mom making homemade lasagna blasting this tune (true story). The cowbell hits right in the pocket. I’m also boys in real life with Max Wagner so I'm obviously a little biased. Listen for yourself…

Notable News - 4 things:

  1. Sam Feldt is bringing his ā€˜Lollapalooza of Fitness’ festival to Chicago this summer - teaming up with ā€œFaces of Fitness,ā€ it’s going to be packed with health and fitness celebrities and live DJ performances during July 26-27. It’s too early to say, but I may or may not get involved with this as we get closer to summer 2025.

  2. Team Canada listens to Fisher while popping bottles after beating USA in the 4 Nations hockey finals - because that's what Canadians do. Win at the game we invented: Hockey. God bless Connor McDavid (aka McJesus aka McGolden Goal) on his now iconic Golden Goal. šŸ‡ØšŸ‡¦

  1. Starkillers goes off on Avicii rant over Instagram stories - I saw them unfolding in realtime and let me tell you, buddy did not hold back. I'm one to keep an open mind to all views and opinions and I will say, he sounded a little unhinged. Definitely provided me with a perspective I've never considered.

  1. Tiesto's lawyer pleads guilty to stealing $70 million from his high profile clients - you'd think this kind of shenanigans just isn't possible these days. But apparently not, because Afrojack used this same tax lawyer and was also defrauded by a web of offshore accounts and lies.

Do you use Protection… Ear Plug Protection that is?

If you haven’t heard… Martin Garrix annouced that he suffers from permanent hearing loss due to tinnitus. Alesso has also recently canceled upcoming shows for the first time in over 10+ years for the same reason. Protect your hearing people!!

I’ve been using Eargasm’s High Fidelity Earplugs for 2.5 years now and they’ve shielded my hearing like a knight in armor. Being in and around clubs with loud music constantly pounding my ears, tinnitus is the last thing I want to have to deal with.
