Benny Benassi's back for "Let This Last Forever"

The dance music icon Benny Benassi returns with a beautiful visual for his new summer jam "Let This Last Forever" performed by Gary Go. The music video is a synchronized swimming dream and is bound to stimulate every man's senses with an erotic dose of synchronized swimming. You're probably at the end of a long, exhausting week. Well, skip the espresso machine Monday morning, enjoy the video and get ready for a full dose of electro house induced energy, and let this last forever.
Benassi pools talents with British singer Gary Go, who lends his vocals once again. Their new upbeat collab, a more relaxing tune, beams summertime vibes. The single will be included on the Italian producer's upcoming album, due out later this year via Ultra Music. It's a shimmery, uplifting dance song that's a perfect segue between afternoon day drinking and late night partying. "Let This Last Forever" boasts Benassi's beloved signature sound. Coupled with Gary Go's inspiring, summertime lyrics, some acoustic strumming and a soaring melody, this is sure to please dance fans across the globe.
If you aren't familiar with the world of synchronized swimming, the Aqualillies are who you call. Remember the Nicki Minaj pool scene in the Justin Bieber "Beauty And A Beat" video? That was the Aqualillies synchronized swimming behind them. They are usually a part of a production, but in the video for "Let This Last Forever," director Bryan Schlam makes them the center of attention, focusing the entire video on some of the Aqualillies performing in a pretty amazing looking house overlooking Los Angeles.
The clip depicts graceful water ballet and sensual pool frolicking on a hot and sun-drenched afternoon that features the Aqualillies, a way glamorous synchronized swimming troupe, and alternates between mesmerizing, kaleidoscopic shots of the ladies doing formations in neon, floral print bikinis and swimming around au naturel. Schlam plays that up in the video with plenty of strategically placed shots and lingering slow motion. It's simply stunning, and in this case, might as well keep your head underwater. Watch the "Let This Last Forever" video below in all its glory.

Benny Benassi unleashes "Dance the Pain Away"

Benny Benassi, the brilliant Italian EDM producer and DJ has recruited soulful crooner John Legend to sing the vocals on his new single "Dance the Pain Away." The studio edit of the song was released just mere days ago, and now Benassi unleashes the official video for the moody dance track via his label Ultra Records. "Dance the Pain Away" will be the first single off Benassi's forthcoming album; its title and release date have not yet been announced. Legend originally wrote the song as a guitar ballad for his upcoming album, "Love in the Future," due September 3.
Legend gets his feet wet in the electro-pop/dance world with Benassi on "Dance the Pain Away." Unlike many R&B artists who venture into this genre, Legend made certain to maintain his soulful delivery as he croons the uplifting and inspirational lyrics. Benassi's hard bass and Legend's smooth croon are an unlikely pairing, and the two musicians' dance-floor-ready collaboration on "Dance the Pain Away" was similarly unexpected partnership. "This song came about by chance. Working with John is the result of a series of coincidences," Benassi tells Rolling Stone. "Not only is he unbelievably talented, he's also really nice."
Benassi counts the partnership as one of his best moments, particularly Legend's surprise appearance when he performed the track for the first time at Coachella in April. "It was one of the highlights of my career," Benassi says. Legend's vocals are absolutely brilliant - the lyrics are a bit cheesy but his soulful vocals just don't really blend well with Benassi's super mega dance beat. Benassi's bass thumps still drive the track, but the synths wash over Legend's vocal caresses. It's even better here, as the ache in Legend's voice elevates this to a level above most dance anthems, proving that sometimes the heart beats louder than the rhythms on the floor.
Legend searches for an escape in the video for "Dance the Pain Away." Directed by Cameron Duddy, the black-and-white clip brings the song to life as it takes fans for a drive along the scenic and storied stretch of famous road known as Los Angeles's Pacific Coast Highway, with Benassi behind the wheel of a classic Porsche 550 Spyder, while Legend belts out the uptempo track in a black suit at the beach among the seaside hills, and a beautiful girl enticing the camera. The video grips the gut of the track and captures the essence of searching for escape.

Benny Benassi Debuts "Cinema" Feat. Gary Go

Italian electro/house DJ and producer Benny Benassi teams up with British pop-rock singer Gary Go, has just debuted a music video on mtvU to kick off Ultra Music Festival, in support of his latest single "Cinema," which has gotten remixed by the producer Sonny Moore, aka Skrillex, who really has become the hottest thing in upcoming electronic music, with his bass heavy bangers that almost everyone seems to fall in love with.
The video features the Grammy winning DJ and his featured guest Gary Go taking turns at some sort of visualization clinic where they wear a helmet that allows them to see a particular memory. And then there's a twist. The Italian disc jokey, along with his collaborator brings fantasies a little closer to reality in this newly released futuristic, sci-fi-themed video, which is either an homage or rip-off of Kathryn Bigelow's 1995 dystopian film "Strange Days," the duo, along with fellow Benassi Brother Alle, relives their most cherished memories via a virtual reality helmet.
The jam starts off upbeat and high energy, with the nice vocals you'd expect. It's a great party banger, turn the bass way up, "Cinema" is the second single taken from Benassi's upcoming fifth full-length album, "Spaceship," to be released later this year. The track will release on April 12, and is also featured in the game "Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit." It's got his signature sound, huge amounts of bass, yet somehow very calm at parts, but still has something extra to cater your party. If you love Skrill, his remix will do more than tickle your fancy. It will probably do something very explicit to you actually. The remix is jam-packed with the customary Skrill filth you know and love.
Electronic music producer Skrillex is taking the electronic music world by storm. He has released a ton of great remixes, including remixes of Lady Gaga's "Alejandro" and La Roux's "In For The Kill." Skrillex's powerful and eclectic approach to electronic music is perfectly shown in this new remix of Benassi's "Cinema." The hard-hitting drums and massive bass drops elevate this song into the upper tier of dubstep anthems. Benassi and Skrillex both dropped Skrill's epic dubstep mix of "Cinema" in their sets at SXSW last week, and the song was by far the EDM anthem of the fest.
