What is “The Untz”? The Untz is a website comprised of anything and everything you need to know in the world of EDM. The webpage layout is easy to navigate, which makes surfing the site interesting and enjoyable. The creators designed the website to give artists and promoters the ability to add their own events and music. The Untz also acts as a forum for promotion, from new song releases, to labels, merchandise and more. Seriously, this site has everything.
Who started it?
The Untz was established by Avi Gallant and Matthew Thomas back in 2009. The boys said it best when explaining the origins of the site… “As fans of electronic music, we were frustrated having to search so many websites to find the information we were looking for. Specifically, we wanted to track our favorite artists, search upcoming local area events, and listen to music samples from a variety of electronic music genres. We wanted to visit one website for all of our electronic music informational needs. The Untz was created to fill this void.”
Location, location, location
Even though the website is based in Vallejo, California, The Untz has employees and correspondents working from all over the nation. The Untz team is always on top of their game and works nonstop to bring us the best of what’s around.
Fan favorite
We consider Untz Wire to be the best part of the website. It’s a collection of news articles, remixes, events and anything else electronic music fans would find interesting. This section is updated just about every day and is a great source for quick tidbits on the EDM community. Check out the Untz Wire, podcasts and other awesome elements of the site by clicking here.
