The hard dance scene is set ablaze as KX CHR and MANDY join forces for “Everybody Dance Now”, out now on Tomorrowland Music. Blending the raw power of Hard Techno with the high-octane energy of Hard Dance, the track is a no-holds-barred invitation to lose control on the dance floor.
Already tested to devastating effect during Tomorrowland 2025 and Defqon.1 San Francisco, “Everybody Dance Now” has proven itself as a crowd-igniting weapon, driven by pounding kicks, a fierce vocal hook, and unstoppable momentum.
Adding a layer of nostalgia, the track’s title nods to the 1990 dance classic “Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody Dance Now)” by C+C Music Factory, a timeless anthem that continues to unite generations, now reimagined through a harder, darker lens.
“We wanted to take that iconic phrase everyone knows and twist it into something raw, powerful, and 100% made for today’s dance floors,” says MANDY. “It’s pure energy, from the first kick to the very last drop.”
The track bears all the hallmarks of Amelie’s peerless productions, with an intense, pulsing techno beat underpinning ethereal vocals and rhythmic and melodic elements of acid, trance and house – which, when combined, create a piece that continues to captivate on repeat listens.
‘Young Forever‘ is the first new music to come from Amelie since her ‘Serenity‘ EP released earlier this year, and her remix of ‘Voices In My Head‘ by Anyma, Argy, and Son Of Son.
The single comes during a landmark year for Lens. The Belgian-born pioneer played some of her biggest-ever headline shows in 2025, including to over 12,000 in Santiago, Chile – and closing the main stage at Tomorrowland Festival. She also debuted her new live production concept this year, entitled ‘Aura‘.
Amelie Lens – Young Forever
Designed and created by Lens in partnership with leading production company High Scream Studios, Amelie‘s new visual and creative direction ‘Aura‘ explores abstract artistic themes of light versus darkness, shadows, structures, movement and the natural world.
Amelie will continue to perform sets across the world throughout the rest of the year. For up to date live dates, please visit her official website.
Insomniac has unleashed the lineup for Escape Psycho Circus 2025, returning to the NOS Events Center this Halloween Weekend for two nights of music, mayhem, and new surprises on October 31 and November 1.

Escape Psycho Circus’ 2025 lineup is led by an array of dance music’s most electrifying forces, featuring a superstar back to back pairing of global hitmakers Marshmello B2B DJ Snake, melodic powerhouses Alesso and Dimitri Vegas who each bring a deep catalog of festival anthems, trap and bass visionary RL Grime who will showcase his label for a Sable Valley Takeover alongside an individual set, genre defying innovator Porter Robinson (DJ Set), dance music architect deadmau5, and a back to back electro-house masterclass from KSHMR B2B R3HAB.
For those drawn to the darker, heavier end of the sonic spectrum, Escape Psycho Circus’ 2025 lineup plunges into full-throttle bass with an earth-shattering NGHTMRE B2B Peekaboo set, alongside hardcore legend Angerfist, a rare and high intensity San Holo (Wholesome Riddim Set), the signature dystopian spectacle of Black Tiger Sex Machine, high-octane disruptor Kayzo, dubstep talent Ray Volpe, new school bass riser Jessica Audiffred, the mind melting sounds of Virtual Riot, and a B2B from the multifaceted ROSSY B2B Pauline Herr.

Among the chaos lurks the Ringmaster’s Troupe, a haunting ensemble of roaming performers who breathe life into every corner of the grounds. Towering art installations, neon-drenched environments, and explosive displays of fire, light, and sound transform the festival into a living, breathing fever dream.
At the heart of the madness lies Crazy Town – a strange and spellbinding hub charged with supernatural energy. Here, Headliners can sip cursed cocktails at Poison Ivy, pick up grotesque goods from The Butcher, or settle in to witness the spine-tingling spectacle of the Fire Organ.
Renowned electronic artist Armin van Buuren is proud to announce his first-ever acoustic album, Piano, arriving October 31 via Armada Music. In a unique partnership, Piano will be available exclusively on Apple Music and Apple Music Classical for one week before its wide release across all major streaming services on November 7.
The first track, ‘Sonic Samba‘ from the album, is out now on Apple Music and Apple Music Classical. The announcement was celebrated with a surprise in-store performance from Armin at Apple‘s Leidseplein store in Amsterdam, followed by a panel and playback at Dolby Atmos House, both held earlier today during Amsterdam Dance Event.
Far from being a departure from his electronic roots, Piano emphasizes the classical influences that have long shaped Armin‘s sound. His music is deeply rooted in a lifelong connection to classical tradition —nurtured by a piano-playing father and an early immersion in composers whose works instilled in him a lasting respect for melody, harmony, and structure.
What began as a decade-long pursuit to learn piano—initially intended to enrich his electronic work and support his mental well-being—evolved into a creative journey of its own.
Growing bored of playing existing scores, Armin began composing his own melodies, which later developed into fully realized pieces under the mentorship of classically trained composer Geronimo Snijtsheuvel.
Armin van Buuren – Piano
Each composition on Piano is inspired by a feeling, emotion, moment, or person(s) deeply important to Armin, including his family — his wife, Erika, his father, his brother — as well as the natural world. The album translates these memories and emotions into piano-driven narratives. The first piece Armin composed for the project, ‘Fathers & Sons‘, set the tone for the album and inspired him to continue in a similar emotional vein.
Armin van Buuren says:
“Creating melodies behind the piano has always been the foundation of my music. Together with my teacher Geronimo, sketches grew into fifteen pure pieces, free from beats. This project shows another side of me: intimate, honest, direct.
My roots lie in a home filled with classical, rock, and electronic music, shaped by my father, brother, and artists like Vangelis and The Orb. After decades of trance and festivals, I longed for music without pressure — just fingers on keys. In 2025, I recorded everything in one take at ConcertLab. This album is my most personal work: from heart, to keys, to ears.”
Recorded and filmed at ConcertLab – the world’s first purpose-built filming studio dedicated to Fine Arts Music – in Utrecht in early 2025, and mixed in Dolby Atmos®, Piano was captured over seven days, with each performance recorded in a single take. The album features van Buuren playing the piano, both solo and with other musicians including a cellist and a chamber orchestra, notably the renowned violinist Lisa Jacobs.
The album’s lead single, ‘Sonic Samba‘, will be available across all major streaming services from October 31, offering a glimpse into the album’s offering ahead of the album’s wide release.
In addition to original compositions, Armin van Buuren revisits one of his all-time favorite trance classics, ‘Children‘ by Robert Miles, as a fresh piano interpolation that bridges his electronic roots with his classical sensibilities.
Piano will be available on Apple Music and Apple Music Classical exclusively from Friday, October 31 and released in Dolby Atmos®, and widely across all major streaming services from Friday, November 7.
Netherlands’ based Reinier Zonneveld and hardcore titan Angerfist have returned for the poignant release, ‘World on Fire’ via Filth On Acid. This follows after the news of Zonneveld debuted in the DJ Mag Top 100 DJs 2025 at #22, a testament to his rising stature in the global dance community.
‘World on Fire’ ignites a colossal fusion of hard techno and hardcore energy.

Following this summer’s major phase-one reveal, Atlanta’s Jungle Bells announces its single-day lineups and the launch of single-day ticket sales for its biggest edition yet — December 12–13, 2025 — starting with a dual-room kickoff on Friday and expanding into a full four-stage takeover on Saturday inside The Masquerade, each space carrying its own pulse, energy, and sound.
What began as a photocopied-flyer rave has evolved into one of North America’s most respected independent drum & bass festivals — a grassroots movement turned global culture hub.
The 2025 edition unites the most in demand international heavyweights, breakthrough innovators, and Atlanta’s underground crews for two nights that capture the full spectrum of the genre — from liquid rollers and techstep to jungle, neuro, and experimental bass.
Jungle Bells 2025 Single-Day Lineups
FRIDAY — DECEMBER 12
Anthems, Emotion & Pure D & B Energy
Friday sets the weekend in motion with sky-high intensity and melodic precision. Rudimental, the Grammy-nominated, BRIT Award-winning UK collective, brings their stadium-sized sound to an intimate setting — a rare U.S. performance that bridges festival euphoria with underground grit. Mozey and Sota deliver high-octane bassline anthems, while Goddard uplifts with liquid-driven melodies that shimmer.
Trailblazer Circadian injects a fierce, genre-smashing UK edge along with weird and liquid beats from Visages and Monroe supported by ATL favorites DJ Wednesday, Subconscious BSC, and 360 Degrees bringing local firepower to the mix, closing the night in true family-rave spirit.
The evening culminates in classic-meets-future form with Critical Sound System and a stacked cast of selectors — a main-stage experience that still feels handcrafted for the heads.
SATURDAY — DECEMBER 13
The Deep End: Legends × Next Wave
Saturday dives into the darker heart of D&B — a collision of eras and styles that defines the festival’s underground ethos. King of the new jump up sound BOU and Kings of the RollersftSerum, Voltage, Bladerunner + Inja lead the charge with their trademark chaos-meets-craft energy, while Roni Size returns for another round of Bristol brilliance going b2b with a Legend DJ SS from World of Drum and Bass.
Icons Dillinja and Danny Byrd anchor the night with raw sound-system weight, balanced by melodic visionaries like ÆON:MODE, Fred V and Tomorrowland’s resident, Andromedik.
The new-wave fire continues with Venjent, the viral D&B phenom alongside B-Complex, LSB & DRS, Basstripper, and Sustance creating a finalé that moves from emotional storytelling to all-out rave catharsis. Across the stages, regional crews and U.S. risers keep Atlanta’s late-night energy burning deep into the early hours.
Each Masquerade room — Heaven, Hell, Purgatory, and Altar — will transform into its own sonic world with custom lighting, projection mapping, and sub-shattering sound systems. Expect an immersive experience with four-stage interplay, upgraded visuals, and afterparties that stretch into sunrise — proof that Atlanta’s rave roots still thrive beneath the skyline.
“This festival has always been about authenticity — no gimmicks, just the music and the people who love it,” says co-founder Brandon Couturier. “The crowd here knows their history and shows up ready to go deep. That energy is what keeps drum & bass alive in Atlanta.”
As co-founder MJ Lee points out, the driving force behind Jungle Bells has always been its underground ethos — a refusal to follow trends or overproduce for mass appeal. Fans are “craving the underground again,” he says, “seeking that raw, real connection built on sweat, sound, and community”.
More than two decades in, their focus remains the same: respect for the artists, care for the fans, and a shared love for the music that built this scene.
“We say this every year — Jungle Bells isn’t just a lineup, it’s a family reunion,”Brandon concludes. “Half the crowd knows each other from other cities, and the other half leaves with ten new friends. That’s what keeps us doing it.”
Founded in 1998 by Brandon Couturier and MJ Lee, Jungle Bells is one of the United States’ fastest-growing drum & bass festivals and a leading culture hub for the genre. Born from Atlanta’s underground and built with global ambition, it has grown from grassroots parties into a two-day, multi-room event that draws fans from across the country and around the world.
Held annually at The Masquerade, the festival showcases the full spectrum of D&B and jungle music, pairing international headliners with rising stars and championing local talent.
Fiercely independent and community-driven, Jungle Bells is powered by a DIY ethos and a deep commitment to authentic culture, staying connected to its roots while pushing the scene forward.

Following the groundbreaking Unity shows at SPHERE Las Vegas, where Insomniac and Tomorrowland joined forces to deliver one of the most innovative live experiences in electronic music, they reunite on a new creative front. Their latest collaboration arrives through Tomorrowland Music and Insomniac Music Group with the release of “Moonshine”, a new single by Alan Walker and Elley Duhé.
The track, which premiered during Walker‘s Unity performance at SPHERE featuring a surprise appearance by Duhé, was written during an inspiring Insomniac x Kreatell songwriting camp at Insomniac Studios in Los Angeles earlier this summer.
“Moonshine” blends Walker‘s cinematic production with Duhé‘s soulful, magnetic vocals, resulting in a track that feels both nostalgic and electrifying.
“We wanted to make something that feels timeless yet fresh.” says Alan Walker.
Alan Walker and Elley Duhé – Moonshine
Lyrically, “Moonshine” captures the intoxicating highs and haunting pull of love that’s impossible to let go. “Loving you is like drinking moonshine, but it’s my fault, you’re so damn fine.”
With its emotional hooks and atmospheric drop, the song bridges the raw storytelling of classic songwriting with the euphoric energy of modern electronic music.
In a scene dominated by pounding kicks, euphoric melodies, and larger-than-life personalities, Lady Faith stands tall as the undeniable Queen of Hardstyle. Known for her fierce stage presence, high-energy performances, and dedication to pushing the hard dance movement forward, she continues to inspire fans around the world.
Following the success of her debut album Untamed and her explosive new single Like A Ghost with LNY TNZ, Lady Faith shows no signs of slowing down.
We caught up with her to talk about her journey, the evolution of the scene, and what fans can expect next.
Check out the full interview below!
It’s great to have this interview with you Lady Faith! You have lots going on lately, let’s get into it.You’re widely recognized as the “Queen of Hardstyle”, have you always played this sound, tell us more about your origin story as a DJ?
When I first started my career as a producer/DJ, at first I played a combination of UK Hard House and Hard Trance with a little Hard Techno mixed in. I have always gravitated to the harder music and have never really strayed off this path.
When I first heard Hardstyle, I fell in love – it just speaks to me. As more people get to hear it, they are also finding it speaks to them, so the scene keeps growing all across the globe.
Earlier this year you released your first album, UNTAMED. How long did this album take to make?
The “Untamed” album was my greatest musical achievement. It took about a year to complete.
My goal was to produce an album, something that had never been done in Hardstyle by a female artist that was also released on a major label, and because I am a perfectionist, every song had to be very high quality with no fillers.
Hopefully the fans feel that I achieved this goal, and I am very proud of every song in this album.
You’ve just released your latest single “Like A Ghost” with LNY TNZ, how did that collaboration happen?
I have known LNY TNZ for a while so this collab came naturally – we both wanted to make a track to be released on Basscon records and we had great synergy in its creation.
I was really pleased with the finished track – it has the best of both of our unique styles in it and the fans have really responded well.
As a touring female DJ, how have you seen the scene change since you started DJing?
When I first started my professional career, there were all kinds of challenges, especially having to carry hundreds of CD’s for every trip.
Now we use USB sticks and that has been so much easier. Over the years I have seen the music change, the DJ’s change and the fans change. It is constantly evolving and getting into areas none of us could have imagined a decade ago.
Who are some of your favorite DJs right now?
I like all of my colleagues in Hardstyle and really enjoy listening to their music so it would be too difficult to isolate all these amazing Hardstyle acts. Instead, I will mention some of my favorite non-Hardstyle performers.
I personally listen to Timmy Trumpet, Tiesto, Armin van Buuren, Charlotte De Witte and many more.
Is the scene different in the USA from Europe?
There are vast differences between the USA scene and the European scene, especially from a cultural standpoint. They love their EDM in Europe, its part of who they are and it means that so many of the top artists learn over there.
I will say that the American EDM scene, led by pioneers such as Pasquale Rotella, have shown much more love to the female artists in the scene. In EDC LV last year, more than 25% of all acts were women. It is an achievement that I personally hope is repeated by promoters everywhere and in all of the genres.
You’re headlining your own show at the legendary venue Webster Hall in NYC Halloween weekend, on November 1st, with hard dance heavyweight ANGERFIST. What can fans expect from this show?
I have no doubt that this show will be the most epic show over the Halloween weekend, so anybody able to get to New York should definitely make the journey.
It will be a hardpounding, over-the-top musical journey and I am blessed to be able to share that experience with the #1 Hardcore DJ on the planet. I mean, lets be real here, Halloween with Angerfist & Lady Faith – it doesn’t get better than that.
What’s next for you, more music, events, anything you want to share with the fans?
I am always moving forward and creating new tracks and getting opportunities to perform for a more diverse crowd. The overall scene is moving in a faster direction and for many fans they are just beginning that journey.
My goals for the future are to introduce more new fans to the world of American Hard Dance, and maybe I will do some more collaborations with artists from other genres. I believe that 2026 will be huge for Lady Faith, my Faithful and the Hard Dance scene in general.
