Linkage: Trent Reznor, Ed Banger, NYC's Cielo, Tiësto, Lee Burridge gets Balanced?

- In an interview with Australia's Herald Sun, the Nine Inch Nails frontman Trent Reznor talks about the current state of the music industry, ignorant record companies and more: "I steal music too, I'm not gonna say I don't."

- In a recent interview with clubZone.com the world's #1 trance DJ Tiësto talks - besides other topics such as AIDS - about his new album Elements Of Life. In his own words: "I’m just caught-up in two sounds at the moment. One is more my mainstream sound and then my roots from the underground are still in me." For some reason we can't think of anything "underground" on that album.

- Premier New York City club Cielo continues to bring world-class talent to its highly-acclaimed intimate club setting. This summer brings a series of events including several US exclusives. Just look at the line-up. Do we need to say more?

- Resident Advisor profiles the Paris-based label Ed Banger.
