It’s the 1st of April and, as every year, brands, companies, organizations, and even record labels come out with the craziest news, as of April fools, of course. This year we have decided to regroup the best EDM-related April fools on this article.

TicketSwap launches HousemateSwap
It’s breaking news that the famous ticket reselling platform has launched a new service called HousemateSwap.
HousemateSwap is an easy-to-use, intuitive platform where you can casually and discretely discard your unwanted housemate onto another household! And in return you can take the housemate they’re also desperate to get rid of!
Remember when you first moved in together? It was great! It was a time when all their little habits were ‘cute’ and ‘endearing’? Surely there must have been a time before you noticed their extraordinarily loud chewing. If you have ever wished you could swap them for someone completely different… we’re here for you! – head of marketing Chris Carey
