Monday Choon: Armin van Buuren & Hardwell - Follow The Light

 

It feels like dance music fans have waited an eternity for this one, Armin first dropped this one at Ultra Miami back in March. Since then, both him and Hardwell have been dropping it in their sets all over the world but kept us waiting for the official release. Well, last week Friday they finally released it and it was worth it. Following their 2015 collaboration 'Off the Hook', which became a global hit with over 100 million streams, the two superstars fuse their respective styles once again, blending Armin's signature euphoric trance melodies with Hardwell's cutting-edge big-room techno to deliver a powerful festival anthem that will undeniably thrill fans. Already a popular track in both artists' sets throughout 2024, the legendary pair teased the collaboration earlier this year during a special back-to-back set at A State of Trance Rotterdam, sparking a frenzy of excitement from fans both at the event and online.

Monday Choon: Hardwell & Machine Made - Human

 

HARDWELL has been enjoying a great come back to live shows from Ultra, to Tomorrowland and Parookaville to name a few. He's been teasing the audiences with new music during his sets and he just dropped one of his tracks a couple of days ago, a song that he did in collaboration with Machine Made, titled "Human". If it sounds familiar to you, its because the original was done by The Killers, back in 2008. The powerful release samples the original vocals from the 2008 anthem ‘Human’ and reinvents them around a braggadocious beat. The single is a tour de force of hard-hitting synth lines and pummelling drums, while the original melody is weaved amongst the penultimate crescendo. The result is an awe-inspiring future rave anthem that seamlessly fuses the familiarity of the original lyrics with a ferocious sonic landscape.
