About an hour ago Electro wunderkind and GDD™ fav Porter Robinson posted on his Facebook that he’d be giving away one of his patented live edits once the post reached 400 shares. Those edits, until now, have been reserved only for him and those witnessing one of his sets in the flesh.

20 mins later, the post had well exceeded its goal thanks to his nearly 180,000 fans. I’ve heard the balloting was neck and neck, so Team Porter has decided to release all four edits for free! Just in time for one of the biggest weekends in Electronic Dance Music.

If you’re still wondering why we like the kid so much, besides the obviously ridiculous and continually evolving productions, just take a look after the jump at this little blurb he posted on his Facebook not too long ago. Take note, humility and gratitude do take you a long way. Get the four free downloads after the jump as well!

You’ve all heard it, and like it or not, this song is everywhere. I happen to enjoy the happy hit from the NYC-based American Indie Poppers, fun., and today our good pal, BetaTraxx, has released his hard-hitting remix of ‘We Are Young’ on Big Beat Records. We’re happy to hear that BetaTraxx is going to have a busy summer, with another remix coming out on Big Beat on May 15th, an EP coming out sometime in June, and of course, his massive Electric Daisy Carnival debut in Vegas next month. Big ups to ya bud!

For those of you that didn’t know already, Insomniac has put together a documentary with live footage from last year’s Electric Daisy Carnival that took place at the Coliseum in Los Angeles last June, along with artist interviews and some other great festival content. The documentary will be reaching the big screen in 520 theaters across the United States for one night only on August 4th, but the premiere will be in Hollywood at Mann’s Chinese Theater next Wednesday, July 27th. Here’s where the cool part kicks in:

The lovely lads in a little group called SWEDISH HOUSE MAFIA are giving us a pair of tickets for 2 of you lucky kids to see the Experience before the rest of the country. This is a HUGE opportunity and probably one of the best giveaways we’ve been able to do thus far, so get excited. Here’s how to win:

• ‘Like’ the Gotta Dance Dirty Facebook Fan Page
• ‘Like’ the Swedish House Mafia Facebook Fan Page
• Write your favorite artist that played at last year’s EDC and your favorite part about going to an Insomniac event on the Gotta Dance Dirty Fan Page wall.
• You must live within 50 miles of Los Angeles to enter
