A minimal instrumental expressing quiet depression and disbelief.
An unnaturally warm December sets an uneasy mood, with soft chords and slow, fading textures that feel numb, reflective, and emotionally distant.

Two of the biggest names in dance music come together to make a real and timeless festival anthem in the form of Nicky Romero and W&W’s new collaboration “Ups & Downs.” Leveraging the progressive sound they both founded their careers with, Romero and W&W deliver big, bouncing basslines, soaring melodies, and a euphoric drop. Any experienced raver will relate to the simple and yet touching lyrics, touching upon dance music culture as self-expression in its truest form!

After releasing his dance-pop crossover earlier this month, Nicky Romero returns to heavier beats on his new single "Falling." Romero teamed up with fellow dance music veteran Timmy Trumpet for the track, which delivers all the elements of a tried and tested club anthem. Opening with enthusiastic melodies and soaring vocals, "Falling" kicks into high gear at a heart-pounding 138 beats per minute during its crescendo. Romero and Trumpet have already tested it out in their live sets, including during their b2b during ADE 2019 and at Echostage in Washington, DC, to rave reactions. This is a track for fans craving a classic party starter as well as new listeners waiting for an introduction to real club life. Let's hope this isn't the only collaboration we get from these two talented artists this year!

Release Date: Feb 21

🎵 OUT NOW: ‘Oh My Lord'

Beyond their breathtaking melodies and explosive live sets, you’ll find dance music's closest friendship. Dutch powerhouse duo Lucas & Steve have seen a momentous rise to stardom in recent years with consecutive summer hits, multiple platinum and golden records, an endless string of international performances and accolades from BUMA (The Netherlands), Fun Radio (France), DJ Mag, MTV and many more.

The pair are renowned for uplifting productions and emotive lyrics, etching their place in modern dance music with massive radio hits like "Summer On You", "Up Till Dawn", "Where Have You Gone", “Perfect” and of course “Letters”, the title track of their 2020 debut album: "Letters to Remember”. Their 16 song LP, which received the Netherlands’ prestigious Edison Pop Award, showcases their musical diversity and solidifies Lucas & Steve’s reputation as truly talented songwriters. With deeply embedded dance roots, the pair have collaborated with the likes of Armin van Buuren, Sam Feldt, W&W, Mike Williams and remixed many household names such as David Guetta, Robin Schulz, Kygo, Lost Frequencies and Illenium among many others.

Since, the Dutch tastemakers have continued their upward trajectory with a slew of highly anticipated and heavy hitting collaborations. 2021 saw Lucas & Steve first team up with R&B icons Blackstreet for the radio-friendly ‘No Diggity’, before bringing things back to the festival with ‘Paper Planes’, a joint venture alongside Norway’s very own Tungevaag.

Lucas & Steve’s infinite energy is best experienced in a crowd, which they’ve proven time after time with acclaimed live performances at Tomorrowland’s Mainstage, Creamfields, AMF, Parookaville, Sziget Festival, ElectroBeach, as well as continuous tours across Europe, Asia and South America.

As the world came to a standstill in 2020, Lucas & Steve continued to elevate their songwriting and recording process to new heights, resulting in the duo surpassing 1 billion streams from all corners of the globe. Lucas & Steve continued to up the ante throughout 2021, churning out trendsetting and memorable collaborations alongside industry icons like Afrojack, Tiësto, and Galantis. Most recently, Lucas & Steve expressed their excitement to bring their sound back on the road with the release of the aptly titled “Set You Free”. Completely reinvigorated, Lucas & Steve are finally emerging from the past two years with a whole new bag of musical tricks up their sleeves. With a succulent summer tour ahead, the Dutch duo is ready to show fans that the best is yet to come.
