Tiesto Plans 'Club Life - Volume Two Miami' Mix

Tiësto is set to release a new mix album, Club Life - Volume Two Miami, on April 24th through his own label, Musical Freedom. It's the second part of the DJ and producer's series of mixes based on the city and its dance music culture. "I picked Miami because it’s one of my favorite cities in the world," says Tiësto.

The mix will feature brand new remixes of several familiar tunes, including Coldplay's hit "Paradise," Gotye's "Somebody That I Used to Know" and the Naked and Famous' "Young Blood," which Tiësto reworked alongside Dutch producer Hardwell.

'Mermaid Avenue Volume III' Coming Soon

A third volume of the Wilco-Billy Bragg collaboration Mermaid Avenue is in the works. Billy Bragg just announced on his website that Nonesuch Records will be putting out a new album featuring 17 previously unreleased songs from the original recording sessions that produced 1998’s Mermaid Avenue and 2000’s Mermaid Avenue Volume II.

The new volume will be part of a package celebrating the centennial of the birth of folk legend Woody Guthrie, whose orphaned lyrics formed the basis of all the Mermaid Avenue material. The four-disc set called Mermaid Avenue: The Complete Sessions will include remastered versions of the first two volumes of Mermaid Avenue, the new one, and Kim Hopkins’ 1999 documentary Man in the Sand, which chronicled the Mermaid Avenue collaboration.

While dates for the set’s release have not yet been announced, Bragg says on his website that he’ll be playing a series of shows focusing on Woody Guthrie’s legacy and the Mermaid Avenue songs.

"I’ll be playing acoustic instruments and singing from the book of lyrics which I compiled from the archives and used during the sessions, quoting from Woody’s handwritten notes that are often tagged onto the manuscripts," Bragg says.
