f someone would have told us two years ago that a marshmallow helmet-donning DJ would be the hottest thing in 2017, we would have never believed it. While we still aren’t entirely sure who’s behind all of the aural confections—his true identity is rumored to be Chris Comstock (aka Dotcom)—Marshmello has quickly become one of the biggest names in EDM. Just this year alone, the masked crusader has performed at festivals like EDC and Coachella. He signed to Skrillex’s OWSLA label and has dropped plenty of candy-sweet earworms, like February’s “Chasing Colors” with Ookay and Noah Cyrus.
If that wasn’t enough, Marshmello’s somehow found time among all his jetsetting to put in work in the studio. Last week, the DJ and producer teased fans with a series of tweets about his recent collaborations with Blackbear, Khalid and Selena Gomez, and he also debuted an unreleased record with Demi Lovato at this year’s Coachella music festival. Haven’t witnessed Marshmello live? Head to YouTube to watch his fully loaded set from this year’s Tomorrowland festival in Belgium for a taste, then go to straight to Intrigue on Thursday, followed by Encore Beach Club on Friday, for the real deal.

the Wayhome Music and Arts festival before returning to XS on Sunday for his last Vegas set until September. Don’t think for one second that means Marshmello is taking a break. In between his Vegas runs, the DJ will embark on a European tour. And hopefully, he’ll drop some of those tasty treats he’s been mixing up along the way. Marshmello at Intrigue at Wynn, July 27; at Encore Beach Club, July 28; at XS at Encore, July 30. –Leslie Ventura

teve Aoki has gone trap— sorta. His new album Kolony definitely deviates from the pulsating EDM soundtrack he established with his previous Neon Future studio albums. His fourth record, just released July 21, offers plenty of hip-hop-flavored collaborations with the likes of Migos, Gucci Mane, 2 Chainz, Wale and more. But it’s not a mash-up record; Aoki recently explained to Rolling Stone that his musical approach was intentionally altered for Kolony after spending some serious study time with Lil Uzi Vert, the Philadelphia artist who shows up on “Been Ballin.”
“My process changed in that session, because it wasn’t about the big drop, because it wasn’t about the EDM,” Aoki said. “It was about finding a section to allow him to be [himself]. My job in the studio was to give him that landscape.” Aoki got some essential assists from Yellow Claw, DVBBS, Bad Royale and Ricky Remedy in building those landscapes, then turned his other collaborators loose with the lyrics. Lead single “Night Call” is clearly a departure for the evolving producer, who drops a heavy beat for Migos and Lil Yachty to play with via their heavily processed vocals.
And just when you think Aoki has gone all-in on trap, introspective album closer “Thank You Very Much” (featuring Sonny Digital) reminds you that he has plenty more surprises left up his sleeve. “Energy is by far the most important element that surpasses trends, cultures, genres, styles,” he told RS. “When a hip-hop artist goes hard at EDC everyone wants to be a part of that. It might not be your shtick or sound, but you can do something that can be a part of that.”

Robots are taking over the world, and Ponytrap is helping them.
metal and mallets, whom Quentin calls Dotman—Ponytrap’s drummer.
The Austin, Texas outfit isn’t harvesting a massive mechanical army like Terminator’s Skynet or rebuilding the earth like Wall-E. Instead, the instrumental husband-and-wife pairing of Hilary and Quentin Thomas-Olive is building robots to create music.
“We never set out to be a robot band. [Dotman] was born out of Quentin’s lifelong desire for playing music, and his frustration with finding people to fit within his artistic vision,” Hilary says.
Ponytrap fuses the instruments and nuance of classical music with the pounding drums and brash nature of industrial acts such as Ministry and Nine Inch Nails. Think of it as a modern, electrified version of traditional chamber music, with an entirely unconventional approach. Quentin plays viola, Hilary plays cello, and the third member of the group is a towering 10-foot tall creation of
During live sets, Dotman is joined by what the couple calls “a small army of robot percussionists,” all converging to form Ponytrap’s unique, harsh sound. “There’s a weird master-slave relationship between us and the robots,” says Hilary. “When we’re making music, we control them, but when we play live, they control us.” Ponytrap has some lofty goals. “I would like to do this full-time, and play for as many people as I can,” Quentin says. Hil-
ary’s are more defined: “I want to play in Japan. I think we’d be huge there!” For now, the couple is in Austin, further developing the Ponytrap vision before their performance at Emerge in Las Vegas. “The robots are all batterypowered, so we sometimes pack them in the back of our trucks and have a mini parade on the streets of Austin,” Hilary says. “That’s just normal here.” –Ian Caramanzana Emerge Music + Impact Conference on the Las Vegas Strip, November 16-18.

hen you think of Las Vegas, you might not associate it with country music. But Las Vegas native and rising country singer Sierra Black says it was the perfect place to start her career.
A regular performer at Stoney’s and South Point, Black has spent the last year traveling back and forth from Las Vegas to Nashville, recording with famed producer Mark Bright, notable for records with Rascal Flatts and Carrie Underwood. “His resume is quite impressive,” Black says. “I’ve spent the last year just writing, and getting together these songs and pitching them to labels. I just finished. Everything’s mastered and ready to go.”
S i e r r a c o u n t r y
B l a c k a lb u m
Having recently signed with an undisclosed label, Black calls the upcoming fall album upbeat and “a lot of fun.” “I’m really exited for the next step in my career,” she says. “And I’m looking forward to everybody hearing the new music and hopefully going more national.”
She’s also shared the stage with Garth Brooks. Combined with her other Vegas residencies, it’s no wonder Vegas has been such a great launchpad.
Before her record hits shelves, the singer has already grown accustomed to performing with nationally acclaimed acts. She’s played with Keith Urban, singing a duet with the star at the Route 91 Harvest Festival. “I thought I was going to be shaking in my boots, [but] I walked out on stage and I was like, ‘Yep, this is exactly what I’m suppose to do,” she says of that performance.
“I think Nashville has had a big influence in Vegas,” she says. “There used to be hitching posts at the 7-11. It’s the Wild West. There’s a lot of people here that enjoy the genre—the most important thing you can do is captivate them.” –Leslie Ventura Photograph by Christopher Devargas

She rocked out “Green Light” in a makeshift karaoke booth on stage at the Billboard Music Awards in May at T-Mobile Arena on the Las Vegas Strip, captivating the crowd with one of the most intimate performances of the night. Then in June, the singer and songwriter dubbed “pop’s edgiest teen” by Rolling Stone in 2013 closed out the iHeartRadio MuchMusic Video Awards in Toronto by performing that hit along with “Perfect Places.” Lorde will be back in Vegas, and back with iHeart, in September.

deliciously convenient sportsbook bar and grill is a necessity for any great casino resort, and Wynn Las Vegas is about to get a new one. Taking the space of the former Zoozacrackers deli is Charlie’s Bar & Grill, set to open August 4. Created as a tribute to Charlie Meyerson, the longtime “super host” who worked with friend Steve Wynn for more than four decades, the new eatery will focus on classic American grill fare. Shareable snacks for the table, hearty salads and irresistible entrées will offer something for everyone, all complemented by an extensive beer and cocktail program. The Charlie Burger will be an American classic, while the Penalty Box will change it up with cheddar cheese, guacamole,

smoky bacon, pickled jalapeños and cream cheese on Texas toast. Crispy, tender cod is the basis for Charlie’s fish and chips, while the giant soft pretzel served with warm horseradish cheddar cheese dip and zesty whole grain mustard is sure to be a favorite shareable item. Combined with Wynn’s newly redesigned Race & Sports Book and expanded with even more comfortable seating areas, Charlie’s will get you on the path to victory.

This is the biggest crowd yet for one of chef Scott Commings’ Culinary Road Trip events. Tonight’s theme is “Vintage Vegas,” with Commings going heavy on family Italian classics—eggplant parm, arancini, meatballs and Caesar salad, all prepared perfectly. In past events, he’s focused on the cuisine of New Orleans, New York and his home state of Wisconsin. Regional culinary hopscotch is the perfect way to showcase Commings’ fare. “I love to cook everything. As a chef, you continue to learn new ways to do things all the time,” he says. Commings studied at Purdue University and moved around the Midwest before landing a gig with Loyola University Chicago, where he was part of a team that built a
sustainable campus with a five-acre organic farm. That focus on high-quality ingredients is the chef’s sweet spot, in the garden and in the kitchen. He believes in using good products and preparing them in ways that let them shine, one of the reasons Commings won season 12 of Hell’s Kitchen. The next step was working for the Gordon Ramsay brand and then landing at the Downtown Grand. The Culinary Road Trips are a microcosm of what diners can find at Freedom Beat, the Grand’s American-style eatery and live music venue where Commings designed the menu. As Downtown Las Vegas continues to diversify and grow, it’s nice to know the neighborhood has a boundary-pushing chef that—deliciously—represents its expanding philosophy. –Jason Harris
