Previously nominated for "Best Breakthrough Artist (Solo)," Page receives his first nod in the prestigious “Best American DJ (North America)” category.

Yesterday, Canada’s premier music portal, MuchMusic, premiered the follow-up single to "In The Air" – “Body Work” (album version). Teaming up with Canada’s Tegan & Sara, the three wanted to write something together from scratch. The result is one of the most exciting tracks off the 2012 studio album.

Indie-pop duo The Submarines recently paid a visit to Daytrotter and recorded 4 tracks from their latest full-length album Love Notes/Letter Bombs.  Daytrotter posted the special session today; check it out HERE and stay tuned for more news from The Submarines.

Partnering with Lacoste, UK–based The Rifles, premiere the official music video for “Sweetest Thing.” Directed by Ferry Gouw (Major Lazer, Roxy Music, Simian Mobile Disco, Bloc Party), the video is a collage of handpicked video and photo images mixed in with band footage.

Featuring Paul Weller on guitars, the anthemic “Sweetest Thing” is from the band’s third full-length album, Freedom Run (out now). Recorded at Paul Weller’s Black Barn studio and produced by the legendary Chris Potter (The Clash, The Rolling Stones, The Verve), Freedom Run is shaping up to be their most accomplished album to date, developing the band’s sound into something fresh and energized, while maintaining all the hallmarks of a classic. Critical responses, so far:

Ladytron & MTV IGGY filmed a private concert at Brooklyn's Victorian Grand Prospect Hall during the band's recent North American tour.

Morgan Page appears in Billboard Magazine’s “Happening Now” section, the magazine’s spotlight for artists on the rise. The anthemic “In The Air,” a collaboration between Page, Sultan + Ned Shepard, BT and featuring Angela McCluskey on vocals, has exploded since its debut – reaching #1 at Billboard Hot Dance Airplay Chart.

“In The Air” is Page’s first #1 hit, despite a long history of Top 10 successes. Believe--Page’s 2010 follow up to Elevate, which featured break-out single "Longest Road" and fellow chart topper "Call My Name"-- continues to be a fixture on the iTunes Dance Albums chart with two former Billboard Hot Dance Airplay hits: “Fight For You” and “Strange Condition.”
