Jengi drops euphoric summer track ‘Closer’ on Tomorrowland Music

Dutch DJ and producer Jengi is turning up the heat just in time for summer with the release of his sizzling new single ‘Closer’, released on Tomorrowland Music.

With his newest track, Jengi takes a bold step back into the playful energy that first shaped his love for dance music. Building on his signature formula of chopped vocal samples, groovy basslines, and vibrant synth work, ‘Closer‘ shows Jengi evolving while still staying true to the spirit of his earlier productions.

After exploring 90s-inspired territory on Take U, this new release steers away from nostalgic predictability. Instead, Jengi draws inspiration from the sounds that shaped his musical upbringing—particularly the quirky and innovative electronic styles of Dutch producer Bas Bron (aka Fatima Yamaha). These local influences breathe a fresh yet familiar life into the track.

Closer‘ marks his third release on Tomorrowland Music, following ‘Take U‘ and Things We Do‘ (a crowd-pleasing collaboration with The Magician).

Jengi Closer

Here’s what Jengi had to say about the release:

“The production plays with dynamics: a stripped-back first drop led only by drums and a funky bassline, gradually building into a more expansive and euphoric second drop. When the synth stabs hit, the track fully opens up – mirroring the transformation shown in the accompanying music video, where a stiff party turns wild once the second drop hits.”

It might just be a metaphor for Jengi himself – someone who watches carefully before diving in, but once he does, there’s no holding back.

Rezz Revamps Fan-Favorite ‘Contorted’ For Long-Awaited Release via HypnoVizion

REZZ

Canadian producer Rezz is gifting fans with a long sought-after original ‘Contorted’ out now via HypnoVizion.

With ‘Contorted‘, Rezz is reflecting on her artistic evolution over the last decade. Initially a SoundCloud-only release, ‘Contorted’ surges with the midtempo pulse that carved Rezz’s early signature and has since cultivated a cult-like fanbase.

Widely recognized for its spiraling melodies, eerie textures and bone-rattling low-end, ‘Contorted‘ has been reimagined with upgraded sound design that sharpens its original edge without losing its raw essence.

Here’s what Rezz had to say about the release:

“This is a remake of an old song that only all the OG fans would know existed! This was a staple in my sets and never got a full release. This version is revamped and soooo much sharper! This song is part of a bigger future project but I wanted to give this to the fans asap.” 

Rezz Contorted

Over the years, ‘Contorted‘ has become a cornerstone of her live shows. The track was a centerpiece in her new audio-visual show PORTAL, which debuted to a sold-out crowd in the Bay Area last month. The show’s mesmerizing visuals synced in real-time with the track’s hypnotic rhythms, heightening its immersive atmosphere and reinforcing its legacy as a can’t-miss moment in her sets.

Contorted‘ arrives ahead of Rezz‘s annual return to The Brooklyn Mirage and festival appearances at EDC Las Vegas, Shamhala, Elements and more. PORTAL will make its second stop at Washington’s Tacoma Dome this September ahead of REZZ ROCKS VII at Colorado’s Red Rocks Amphitheatre in October.
