With its relentless, driving basslines and pulsating energy, this track promises to ignite dance floors worldwide, drawing on the gritty influences of industrial techno.
“The last few years, I’ve been inspired and excited about what the next generation in dance music is up to, and DION and Funk Tribu have been two of my favorites from this new wave of uptempo rave music. We thought bringing our three worlds together in one track would be interesting, so we met in Amsterdam for a studio session. I showed them a particular euphoric melody that I had in mind for the track, and they both resonated with the idea right away; from there on, with their input, the whole track developed itself very quickly and organically. I think it was a step outside of our comfort zones for all three of us, but we all realized that day that we had an absolute tune in our hands!” - Oliver Heldens.
Heldens first previewed this collaboration for audiences during his Mainstage set at Ultra Music Festival, and it was subsequently played by the likes of Patrick Mason, Armin van Buuren, and Maddix. This collaboration unites Heldens' dynamic house mastery with DIØN’s deep techno roots and Funk Tribu’s raw edge, making it a must-listen for all dance music fans.

About Oliver Heldens
A genuine superstar with No. 1 hits and more than 4 billion streams, Oliver Heldens is at the vanguard of the new generation of house music stars. A resolute perfectionist who works tirelessly in his studio to craft new sounds and directions at every opportunity, he’s a truly dedicated artist who refuses to cut corners. This attitude to innovation also saw him launch his spectacular HI-LO side project, pushing his intricate and forward-thinking production aesthetic to its limits. His career has been a whirlwind of mind-boggling success after Tiësto picked up his 2013 single “Gecko,” which became his major breakthrough track. Pete Tong’s Warner Music Group imprint, FFRR, subsequently licensed it and took it to the #1 spot in the UK Official Chart with a vocal from Becky Hill, culminating in Double Platinum sales. One of the most talented producers in the game, Oliver continues to value the synergy of collaborations, delivering stand-out releases with artists like Nile Rodgers, Kylie Minogue, Tiesto, David Guetta, and brands like Call of Duty and F1, plus releasing official remixes for the who’s who of pop stars & cultural icons including Calvin Harris & Dua Lipa, Chic, Coldplay, Depeche Mode, Nina Kraviz, Glass Animals, Jamiroquai, and Justin Timberlake & SZA.
In 2014, Oliver Heldens launched his highly successful label, Heldeep Records, as a platform to showcase the new music of budding producers. However, Heldeep has since grown into a fully-fledged label that continues to be a leader in breaking tastemaker club and house records. Heldeep has since spawned two equally impressive imprints: OH2 Records (2020), which caters to the more commercial leaning, streaming-focused productions, and HILOMATIK (2023), the home for HI-LO output and cutting-edge techno from other artists, serving as a platform to bring the melodic techno world and the more driving peak time techno world closer to together. The family of labels features releases from respected talents such as ALOK, Chocolate Puma, Green Velvet, James Hype, Kai Tracid, Elohim, Example, Shift K3y, Eli Brown, Space 92, and Wehbba and has hosted legendary label nights across the globe with guests including Chris Lake, Dom Dolla, Arman van Heldens, Mau P, James Hype, Gorgon City, Idris Elba, Nora En Pure, and many more. Heldens continues to host his weekly radio show, Heldeep Radio, which has surpassed 500 episodes. Aside from the music, Heldens always likes to go one step further with his ideas to ensure that every element of his creative game truly stands out. Whether that’s with his hilarious social media hijinx on his massive channels, harnessing the power of his fanbase to create a dance craze for his track “Flamingo,” or creating his own Deep Water vitamin drink, there’s never a dull moment in his world
