After a year of well-received releases, exciting bootlegs and a tour-schedule that would cripple even the strongest seasoned DJ, it is safe to say that the punch behind Robbert van de Corput’s premature legacy is no short-lived fad. But still seeing tremendous support on his last solo single, ‘Spaceman‘, Hardwell makes his return to unveil the official video teaser for it’s very follow-up, ‘Apollo’.
First premiered at his Revealed event at club Escape in Amsterdam last night, ‘Apollo’ sees Hardwell joined by Sydney songstress Amba Shepherd for a concoction of his signature uplifting synth leads and ethereal vocals. Still packing a strong punch within its grinding low-end beats, ‘Apollo’ proves itself something of a solid mark of musical maturity from Hardwell.
Out on November 26th
In a return to remix duties, label head honcho turned DJ Mag #6 Hardwell and rising homeland peer Dannic continue their collaborative affair to take the reins of Franky Rizardo and Roul and Doors’ ‘Elements‘ for Hardwell’s own Revealed Recordings.
Digressing from the synth-laden sound that pervaded their remix of Example’s ‘Say Nothing‘, the duo swap the tropically tinted stylings of the original for a take of grinding chord play and hands-in-the-air moments. Despite not quite hitting in on the same inventive notes as the original, Hardwell and Dannic’s remix makes for a solid counterpart that is sure to be music to the ears of those more enthusiastic about the heavier-set realms of Dance music.
Out November 12th.
Stepping away from the drum-laden approach that has pervaded his latest originals, Hardwell protégé Daan Romers embraces his Dannic moniker once again to release his follow-up to ‘Fuego’ in ‘Flare’.
Dealing a blast of hard-hitting yet well-structured Electro House that touches on the rich Progressive vibes that his country has become synonymous with, Dannic’s digitally scored canvas of churning leads and mechanical beat work makes for a potent return to Revealed Recordings. Despite lacking a slight sense of originality, ‘Flare’ proves Romers worthy of the avenues that continue to open to the young Breda producer and his rapidly developing sound.
No strangers to the realms of unconventional club music, Franky Rizardo and Roul and Doors return hand-in-hand to preview their upcoming release on Revealed Recordings, ‘Elements.’ Showcasing the same, tropically tinted stylings that pervaded their successful ‘Blackout‘ release on Flamingo, the Dutch trio are back to continue their collaborative affair with another fine example of drum-driven House music. Without folding to the more stereotypical regions associated with their homeland, the track’s infectious rhythmic progressions make for a worthy debut on the record label of Hardwell.
Out in November on Revealed along with a Hardwell edit.
With his fingers well fixed on the pulse of European talent in line with his steadily expanding Revealed Recordings imprint, Dutch floor-filler turned DJ Mag #6 Hardwell brings aboard homeland duo Firebeatz for their debut on the label with their Tomorrowland-premiered, new single ‘Here We F*cking Go’.
Following up on Beatport #2 ‘Dear New York‘ alongside Schella, the duo continue their onslaught of festival-proof Dance music with a mix of dotted, screeching synth work and churning low-end. Breathing some promising energy into the popular sub-genre with little hints of contention, ‘Here We F*cking Go’ emerges as a solid character reference to this fast-rising mark on the European Electro scene.

Dealing a blast of hard-hitting yet well-structured Electro House that touches on the rich Progressive vibes that his country has become synonymous with, Dannic’s digitally scored canvas of churning leads and mechanical beat work makes for a potent contender for this year’s ADE.

Release date is set for October 29th on Revealed Recordings.
Breda’s new kid on the block Kill The Buzz may not posses the hallmarks of a household name, but joining the ranks of Hardwell’s Revealed Recordings, Tomorrowland-premiered ‘Party Hard’ may well be the tipping point for this young and restless producer from the Benelux.
Flipping from distant melodic play to grindy drops, ‘Party Hard’ is an aptly attributed festival cut in disguise. Putting feel-good flavours at the forefront of its sizeable progressions, the track’s digression into the well-manifested realms of peak-time Electro House make for a qualified pairing of muscle and melodics that compliment each other with a sense of unified energy.

Always on hand to show that Dutch House music isn’t all bleeps and euphoric synths, aspiring Breda producer Dannic and the likeminded homeland peer Jordy Dazz unite for a tough yet melodic upheaval upon the late summer clubbing season.
Back on track for Hardwell’s Revealed imprint once again, ‘Fuego’ embraces both artists’ obsession with intense percussive developments alongside the strong melodic surges and uplifting peak time energy that has characterised the label and its up and coming roster of late. In a sharp and defined installment of European Dance music at its more untamed heights, Dazz and Dannic breath another surge of adrenaline into the industry with yet another quality cut in the name of ascending Dutch talent.
