Starting the year in truly epic fashion, Smash The House puts together a crack team of the biggest and best producers in the world for ‘Explode’, a potentially classic hardstyle-twinged big room track!

Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, Timmy Trumpet, Brennan Heart, and Darius & Finlay. All on one project, all behind one set of boards! This exciting and endlessly talented group of individuals come together to imagine ‘Explode’, a big room behemoth of a release that will be played in mainstage sets by the most sought-after DJs, guaranteed! When five separate acts get together like this, it becomes a moment, and that’s exactly how this feels: the group effortlessly blend their influences to arrive at a big room production that takes on massive proportions. From the earth-shaking bassline, catchy synth lines or the high-energy drop, this track has everything one may desire from a big room house release!

Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike and Timmy Trumpet, given their similar stature in the industry after such long and illustrious careers, have collaborated plenty of times in the past. Including releases like 2021’s ‘Feel Your Love’ and 2020’s ‘Der Alte (The Anthem)’, to name just a couple. At this point in their careers, these two acts need no introduction, but they both show no signs of slowing down, with a solid year of releases and collaborations under their belt for 2023. This time around, the two all-star acts of the scene enlist the help of three more artists to manage the load! You may be aware of Brennan Heart through his contribution to another Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike and Timmy Trumpet collaboration in ‘Sweet Caroline’, which has had massive success across the global EDM circuit. Since then, the Dutch producer has gone from strength-to-strength in the industry, hence why he’s landed another feature placement with the two legends!

These three EDM acts are already a force to be reckoned with. Still, when you add the unique expertise of producers Darius & Finlay, the project becomes one with incredible depth and imagination. Darius & Finlay add a classic feel to the project. The legendary German dance music duo are no strangers to a big track and show their unquestionable pedigree on ‘Explode’!

Electronic music lovers know Dimitri and Mike Thivaios as the monolithic brotherly duo "Dimitri Vegas and Like Mike". The brothers are superstars in the electronic music scene that earned the adoration of crowds around the globe. From becoming the first-ever duo to win the World #1 DJ's crown at the prestigious DJ Mag Top 100 DJs Poll in 2015 and 2019, the twosome has continued to stand firm and stay in the top 5 positions in the Poll since 2014.

Collecting more Gold and Platinum records than they can count, Dimitri and Mike have won the hearts of icons across genres collaborating with heavyweight hitters like David Guetta, Daddy Yankee, Natti Natasha, Gucci Mane, Snoop Dogg, Martin Garrix, Diplo, Swedish House Mafia, Steve Aoki, Armin Van Buuren, Afrojack, Ne-Yo, Wiz Khalifa and many more. An invite from Disney Records led the brothers to work with Hans Zimmer on a big room flavour of the film's lead score 'He's a Pirate' for the fifth instalment of the Pirates of the Caribbean movie franchise Dead Men Tell No Tales. They also created the theme for Mortal Kombat 11, the latest instalment of the iconic video game series.

After a stellar rise in the scene for many years, their monumental single 'The Hum' starring Jean Claude Van Damme and Charlie Sheen in the music video scaled new heights. Netting the #1 spot in their native Belgium, the single went platinum, with the music video receiving over 200 million views online. The brothers repeated their magic touch on the Ne-Yo collaboration 'Higher Place', which spent ten weeks atop the Belgian singles chart and secured the #1 Billboard Dance Chart spot. They claimed the #1 spot again with the release of their Diplo collaboration 'Hey Baby' and then again when 'Selfish' featuring Era Istrefi secured the #1 position on the Billboard Dance Chart. Their summer 2017 single 'Complicated', with David Guetta and Kiiara, became one of the year's biggest hits with over 165 million streams on Spotify and 88 million YouTube views. The duo joined forces with W&W on 'Crowd Control', the sonic representation of their iconic dance move. Their involvement on the All-Star collaboration 'Instagram', which included David Guetta, Afro Bros, Daddy Yankee and Natti Natasha, gifted the scene with one of the biggest songs of the summer in 2019 and which currently sits at more than 280 million streams on Spotify. In 2020 they released this monster hit Do It! together with Kimberly Loaiza and Azteck. The single has received more than 235 million TikTok views and over 80 million total streams.

The launch of their yearly homecoming arena concert in 2013 was another example of their enduring appeal. Nearly a decade later and after 25 sold-out concerts, welcoming more than 500,000 fans, Dimitri and Mike had firmly brought the madness of the biggest annual arena show to Antwerp's Sportpaleis. However, it's their position as the ambassadors of the worldwide phenomenon Tomorrowland which has seen them grow to an unprecedented level of stature, playing their part in the incredible rise of the world-famous Belgian festival.

Dimitri and Mike are locking up more than 30 million fans on social media, combined with billions of music streams and video views. In the meantime, they tour the world, selling out stadiums and arenas with immersive live performances. From iconic clubs like Amnesia, Green Valley, Ministry of Sound and Ushuaïa Ibiza, where the duo holds a summer residency in partnership with Tomorrowland, to festival mainstages such as Airbeat One, Balaton Sound, Creamfields, EDC Las Vegas, Lollapalooza, Parookaville, Soundstorm, World Club Dome, Tomorrowland, Untold and many more.

With a globe-trotting tour schedule while running one of the most iconic record labels in the scene and producing some of the biggest electronic records of the past decade, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike have proved that together, they have what it takes to dominate the scene as they persistently strive to give their global fan base the best experience and memories feasible.
