Loud Luxury, the LA-based Canadian production and DJ duo of Andrew Fedyk and Joe Depace, is enjoying top 20 status this week with a track they released a year ago through Armin van Buuren’s record label, Armada Music (Sony).


“Body,” featuring vocalist Brando, debuted on the Billboard Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart at 49 and climbed into the top 20, selling a bundle and garnering massive streams. With Sony behind it now, the single is exploding at radio and is one of only two CanCon songs on the Canadian Hot 100, the other being Drake at No. 1 with “God’s Plan.”

Here’s what Loud Luxury has to say about their single: “‘Body’ is one of our favourite songs we’ve ever written. For us, it represents mixing the R&B and hip-hop that we listened to growing up in Toronto with a classic Loud Luxury Sound. We made it just for the late-night drives and getting into trouble in the city.”

On tour in the US now, the duo appears at Vancouver’s Celebrities Nightclub on April 28 and Whistler’s Maxx Fish the night following.

On March 30, Loud Luxury released a new song, “Sex Like Me” featuring Dyson.

Consumers Council of Canada Seeks to Sue Live Nation to Divest From Ticketmaster

Citing anticompetitive exclusive promotion, exclusive ticketing and radius clauses, the group seeks to breakup the companies, void contracts with artists and venues, and secure compensation for consumers.

The Consumers Council of Canada has filed an application with the Canadian Competition Tribunal, seeking permission to sue Ticketmaster and its parent company, Live Nation.

The Canadian consumer group’s claim alleges that the merged live entertainment companies force artists and venues to accept anti-competitive exclusive promotion, exclusive ticketing and radius clauses. If they don’t comply, they risk losing access to the company’s wide network of connections.
