The brand behind the innovative concept is gaining financial traction, now that investors see it as a reality rather than an abstract project.

The grand opening of the Las Vegas Sphere happened this past weekend. A concept as original as a literal giant hollow sphere to hold different forms of entertainment had to live up to the hype. And live up they did, by bringing none other than Rock band U2 to inaugurate the centre. As you’d imagine, the venue did well, as their first-ever event handled the expectations in an elegant fashion.

The Market’s Reaction

Not only are the guys at the forefront of entertainment still steadily rising in popularity: they are rising in value as well. Upon opening on Monday, October 2nd, the first weekday after the shows, the stock market saw a spike in the price of Sphere Entertainment’s asset, SPHR. Take a look at the graph below, courtesy of Yahoo Finance, which shows the price and volume movements of the past five days, as of October 3rd, 12:22 PM ET.

As can be seen, the stock saw a big hike in the early active hours of Monday, having closed on Friday, September 29th with a price of $37.32, and being valued at $41.85 just one hour into the Monday period. The highest price achieved for SPHR came that same Monday, at 12:40 PM, when the stock closed at a price of $43.45. This represents a delta of 16.4%.

Also evident from the graph is the volume of trade, which shows much more action this week than it ever got during the late September days. Despite the volume seeing an increase, the price is currently undergoing a correction phase, and it’s falling from its all-time-high (ATH) price of $43.45, to $40.01 as of 12:22 PM ET. It all seems to point, though, to a final stable price that outperforms that of last week. You can follow the movement of SPHR through this link.

The Sphere’s Debut: U2

“Go big or go home“, is a classical phrase by now. Well, the Sphere guys sure went big, luring legendary rock band U2 to the stage. Around 18,000 concertgoers — among which stood celebrities such as Oprah Winfrey, Paul McCartney, Jeff Bezos, LeBron James, Jon Hamm, Aaron Paul, and Bryan Cranston — filled the inside of the Sphere, for U2’s residency ‘U2:UV Achtung Baby Live At Sphere‘. The show graced the place twice this past weekend, firstly on Friday, September 29th, and then the day after.

According to the New York Post, Sphere owner James Dolan closed a $10M deal with the band for a residency at the Sphere, which consists of 26 shows — two of which have already happened —, the last of which is set to happen on December 16th, 2023.

We’re yet to see future shows, residencies, and visuals Las Vegas Sphere will put on display to maintain the level of hype they’ve been able to hold for the entire year. For now, though, it seems like the newborn venue has no plans of slowing down.

Teamworx and Yam Refaeli Join Forces on Heartfelt Single ‘Until We’re Falling Down’

Teamworx Yam Refaeli 1024x576 1

In a remarkable fusion of creativity and technology, a collaborative initiative has emerged, bringing together five individuals from diverse artistic backgrounds to create a poignant musical experience. The team includes the dynamic DJ duo and producers, Teamworx (Ben Azoulay and Saar Lagziel), the renowned singer/songwriter Yam Rafaeli (X-Factor Israel finalist), and the visionary project leaders, Tamir Yeshayahu and Idan Shakorka.

Their journey took a unique and exciting turn as they delved into the creation of a song that transcends conventional boundaries. Leveraging the power of AI video technology, they artfully reconstructed the events of a tragic massacre, weaving together a narrative that seeks to leave a lasting impact.

The accompanying video is not for the faint-hearted, as the combination of evocative visuals and a compelling storyline ensures that no eye remains dry. The creators acknowledge that not everyone may be able to watch the entire clip due to its emotional intensity.

The genesis of the song lies in heartfelt conversations with survivors and extensive research across various networks. The lyrics encapsulate a range of emotions, from profound sadness and anger to a resilient hope that authentically reflects the human experience in the face of tragedy.

Beyond being a mere composition, the song holds a profound purpose—to inspire people to sing, dance, and engage with the accompanying video. The vision is to spread this musical tribute to dance floors across the globe, fostering awareness and creating a lasting memorial for friends lost on that fateful day.

At the heart of the song’s narrative are the stark events of October 7 at the Nova Festival. The lyrics vividly address a horrific massacre where over 300 attendees, seeking nothing but the joy of dancing peacefully, lost their lives at the hands of Hamas, a designated terrorist organization.

Yam Rafaeli’s impactful vocal delivery, combined with Teamworx’s masterful production, creates a connection that transcends the auditory experience. For those seeking a deeper connection, a compelling 3-minute video clip accompanies the audio, providing a visceral and emotional visual experience.

As the creators aim for the song to find its place in the playlists of renowned DJs and resonate across global dance floors, “Dance until we fall” stands as a powerful artistic endeavor—a tribute, a call to action, and a poignant reminder of the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity.

IMG 0439 819x1024 1 jpeg

I can’t really begin this article without commending Fred again.. for his insane production and mixing skills. Ok that feels better… Fred Again.. brings out an unique blend of Baby Keem’s ‘South Africa’ and ‘Bullies’ to craft ‘leavemealone’. The Atlantic Records track is a nasty electro journey with Jungle influences and incredible melodies. The result is 3:43 minutes of pure goosebumps.

The song introduces a blend of Baby Keem’s original tracks in a masterful positioning, adding reverbs and stuttering that makes transitions seamless. The build up is as emotional as it is sick in the best way possible. It’s so good you just want to cry on the dancefloor as you keep dancing and your tears turn into joy. The hip hop elements fuse with the Electro and UK style in a very dynamic composition. Fred again.. really outdid himself with this one. The repitches and stutters are so well presented it is truly a Grammy-worthy situation.

The American Rapper is known for his role on the Black Panther soundtracks, as well as credit contributions for Beyoncé and Kendrick Lamar. His free flowing style with heavy trap and bass influences made him the right candidate for the UK producer Fred again.. to ascertain his prowess and construct this masterpiece of a track.

Fred again.. and again?

The UK producer and DJ just gets better and better. He worked with Skrillex and Four Tet for ‘Rumble’. Besides, he produced happiness anthems like ‘Delilah (pull me out of this)’ Fred again.. is a force in this era. Alone this year, He managed to book an eight-night residency at the Shrine in LA. And, gave us three nights at Forrest Hills Stadium. Moreover, he is now a nominatee for Best Dance/Electronic Album at this year’s Grammy Awards for Actual Life 3 (January 1- September 9 2022). His ability to develop story like songs and albums that feel like intimate journal entries is such a beautiful ability.

Nevertheless, we present you ‘leavemealone’:

unnamed 1024x1024 1

Summer Camp Festival in Illinois has had an impressive 22-year run. The creators will enter an exciting new era in 2024 with their new festival concept: Solshine: A Music and Arts Reverie. Debuting at Summer Camp’s beloved venue of Three Sisters Park in Chillicothe, Illinois, the first-ever edition of Solshine will take place from Friday, May 24 – Sunday, May 26, 2024. There will also be a pre-party on Thursday, May 23.

The festival has expanded from 2,000 attendees in 2001 to over 25,000 attendees in 2023. They present a cross-genre music lineup and experiential programming helped cultivate a dedicated fanbase and inclusive community. Over the years the festival also hosted a wide variety of music acts including Tom Petty, Zac Brown Band, Skrillex, Diplo, Griz, Goose, Pretty Lights, Subtronics, Primus, Willie Nelson & Family, Liquid Stranger, Rebelution, REZZ, Slightly Stoopid, STS9, The Disco Biscuits, Excision, Zeds Dead and many more.

Looking toward the future while celebrating the past, Summer Camp’s organizers will channel their flagship event’s longstanding legacy into their new Solshine: A Music & Arts Reverie concept. The festival will host a diverse, cross-genre lineup of musical acts spanning jam bands, electronic, bluegrass, funk, rock, and everything in between. In addition to its music programming, the Solshine will offer a variety of workshops, food & craft vendors, and activities – the heart and soul of what made Summer Camp a ‘home away from home’ for attendees who returned year after year. 

Solshine: A Music & Arts Reverie will also retain Summer Camp’s core ethos of building an inclusive community around music. Through its mission of sustainability, the festival will aim to inspire attendees to live a life of intention and purpose to create a positive impact on the world. To capture this spirit, the festival will host the coveted experiential art area The Illumination Woods, and the permanent garden SOULPATCH as a dedicated area to increase knowledge of permaculture and sustainability.
