Crafting an enchanting soundscape, the tribute captures the essence of Come With Me, combining touching piano melodies, soaring vocals and rhythmic percussion to radiate positive and uplifting energy.

Speaking about the release, Nora En Pure mentioned:

“‘Do No More’ is a little ode to ‘Come With Me’, which has played a big role in my musical journey, so to celebrate its ten year anniversary I wanted to create a summery track with a similar vibe, with a modern twist.

Don Diablo is back on Spinnin’ with an updated version of his hit single ‘Cutting Shapes,’ which was released via HEXAGON/Spinnin’ in 2016.

‘​​Cutting Shapes’ is slang for Shuffle Dancing, and Don Diablo’s original ‘Cutting Shapes’ release was a big track for the shuffle community (the video has over 57M views!) With “Still Cutting Shapes,” Don pays homage to the shuffle community with a fresh dance-pop track that hits the club space while also having solid crossover potential. We’ll undoubtedly be hearing this one at the finest music festivals all summer.

“My fans have been asking me to do a throwback to my traditional piano house sound, so making a brand new version of one of my biggest tracks was a no-brainer. When I started to play it out in my shows, I got so many requests to release it we had to oblige. Being reunited with Spinnin’ Records for this release feels like everything is going full circle. We are going back to the future, and we are “still cutting shapes!,” Diablo says

To step inside the mind of Don Diablo is to step inside the future. The Dutch visionary demonstrates a total immersion in his craft that has seen him challenge perceptions and break down creative boundaries with his numerous endeavors across the music, art, fashion, and tech realms.

Displaying an almost prophetic ability to tap into future trends, the forward-thinking Digital Artist refuses to be pigeonholed by just one avenue of his illustrious career. Currently voted the world’s #9 DJ on the prestigious DJ MAG Top 100, the sought-after producer has collaborated with and remixed a wide range of artists, including Dua Lipa, Justin Bieber, Gucci Mane, Ed Sheeran, Mark Ronson, Travis Barker, Miley Cyrus, Rihanna, Madonna, Ty Dolla $ign, The Chainsmokers, Coldplay and many more.

Mau P is returning the favor after the legendary Armand van Helden released his official ‘Drugs From Amsterdam’ remix back in March. By being commissioned an official ‘I Want Your Soul’ remix, Mau P is joining an exclusive club of artists who’ve been given the honor.

For the first time in close to a decade, an official remix of Armand van Helden‘s seminal I Want Your Soul has been released on Southern Fried Records, this time by none other than Mau P. The prodigious DJ and producer has delivered a thumping contemporary cut while maintaining much of the original’s trademark sound. The Mau P remix is part of an exchange by the two artists, following Armand van Helden‘s Drugs From Amsterdam remix back in March.

By being commissioned an official I Want Your Soul remix, Mau P is joining an exclusive club of artists who’ve been given the honor. Mau P said about the release;

“Being told that the I Want Your Soul edit I made was going to become an official release was another pinch me moment. Armand van Helden is one of my all time heroes and I Want Your Soul is such a classic. I must’ve played it hundreds of times at house parties and even to this day it always hits the spot. I hope I did the track justice with my version, I guess we’ll find out soon enough.”

I Want Your Soul has gone down in the history books as one of the all time classics and gained worldwide notoriety due to its incredible infectiousness. From Marco Carola to Peggy Gou, I Want Your Soul is an instant crowd pleaser to this day. The release has stood the test of time like no other and is exemplary of Armand van Helden‘s genius as a producer.

Mau P is currently helming what might be one of the most rapid ascents to the top in recent house music history. Less than a year after bursting onto the scene with his iconic debut single Drugs From Amsterdam Mau P is hitting milestones at an unprecedented pace. The aforementioned debut has now been streamed over 100 million times on Spotify alone and was the predecessor to a multitude of successful releases. Most recently, Mau P teamed up with Kevin de Vries for his first release on Afterlife with Metro. Metro has been one of the year’s most anticipated releases after becoming a highlight in Tale of Us sets.

Mau P made his Tomorrowland debut last weekend and is already in the midst of a run of US shows, including elrow in New York and Marquee Dayclub in Las Vegas. Additionally, Mau P announced his very first headlining Amsterdam Dance Event show at Thuishaven on Wednesday October 18th, at which he’ll perform from open to close.

Discover all of Tomorrowland’s 2023 stages

The Rose Garden stage

People of Tomorrow from all corners of the world have made it to the third and final day of the second weekend of Tomorrowland in Boom, Belgium. From the iconic, ever-changing but always magical Mainstage to dancefloors overlooked by giant mushrooms to a peaceful, out-of-this-world face overgrown by jungle plants to a friendly giant dragon, Tomorrowland’s magic is made in large part by its stages.

As you will have noticed by now, there’s never a dull moment as you switch between styles such as big room, techno, psytrance, house, drum & bass, and hardstyle in front of varying backdrops. What’s more, the stages are always a visual fit to the walls of sound they host. Everything, in other words, is taken care of when it comes to the best settings for dancing. And just in case you missed something so far, here’s a tour of all stages.

‘Adscendo’ Mainstage

​The ‘Adscendo‘ Mainstage is the undisputed centerpiece of Tomorrowland, the one all People of Tomorrow are always most excited to see. In typical Tomorrowland fashion and following many years of tradition, the Tomorrowland 2023 Mainstage, representing its magical ‘Adscendo’ theme, is 100% crafted in-house at Tomorrowland, from idea to realization. From first idea sketches translated to mood boards and concept drawings to 3D-modeling and graphical assets, shaping of sculptures and manual production, the renowned creative team behind Tomorrowland has invented, drawn and brought the magical stage to life.

Tomorrowland Mainstage

The Rose Garden

​Entering The Rose Garden feels like entering the dragon-like Bruce Lee in his famous movie. The dragon overlooks the field and the adjacent lake while the People of Tomorrow dance to the most diverse selection of raging party sounds.

The Rose Garden

Elixir

​Built on the edge of the water, the Elixir stage is your safe haven for high-quality eclectic sounds. As you approach, the stage’s mesmerizing theatrical decor casts a spell, drawing the People of Tomorrow closer with its magnetic allure.

The Elixir stage

Freedom Stage

​The Freedom Stage is a technical feat of epic proportions. Armed with a massive LED backdrop, giant dragonflies, and spotlights scanning the room for happy ravers’ faces, this is an unparalleled experience.

The Freedom Stage

Atmosphere

​The Atmosphere is a massive indoor stage filled with all the top-notch artists your techno heart could ever desire. The custom-made tent structure caters to thousands of dedicated party people and has an immense backline of LED screens to further ignite the explosive dance floor. This stage is about techno in all of its relentless shapes.

Atmosphere stage

Cage

​At Cage, the darkness of clubs and warehouses is celebrated in full effect. The electronic music you’ll hear all over Tomorrowland emerged from such spaces across New York City and the Midwestern USA, before diverging into a plethora of new styles in the UK warehouse rave scene. The music today is a little different than back in the day, though. Cage is where you lose yourself to the sounds of modern techno, rave, and industrial hardcore DJs. If you love ultra-energetic vibes and rhythms, then Cage is where your friends will find you.

Cage stage

The Rave Cave

​Tomorrowland may have grown to be the ringleader of massive, epic, and larger-than-life festival experiences, but it will never cease to honor the roots of its musical success. The Rave Cave is the place to take you back to the original vibe of outdoor partying – back when all you needed to get down was a pair of speakers, a handful of dope-ass DJs, and a tunnel (aka the Rave Cave) to rave in.

The Rave Cave

CORE

​Enter the world of the incredible CORE stage, which has slowly but surely become a Tomorrowland classic. Now also an annual festival of its own, CORE has literally put a face to the music this year. Centered around a figure with a serene, upward gaze, the stage is a temple of human expression right in the middle of a mysterious forest. CORE is where the People of Tomorrow become one with nature while they dance to the sounds of the world’s best forward-thinking DJs.

CORE Stage

Crystal Garden

​Smoke on the water this year at the Crystal Garden! If there ever was an enchanted swamp worth visiting, it would be this magnificent piece of floating art. Drifting on the water and steaming on all sides, it oozes eclectic beats and enticing sounds. The hosting partners this year only add to the excitement of it all. Steaminess is guaranteed.

The Crystal Garden stage

The Library

​The Library is where you indulge in wisdom, surrounded by the giant books strewn all around the stage. Their presence is enough; there’s no need to read the pages. The Library is where DJs and performers fire their beats right at you as if they were poetry or literary fiction. The Library’s soundtrack throughout the weekend is a sweet and energetic mix of future house, big room, and even hardstyle.

The Library stage

Youphoria

​The wonderfully decorated Youphoria stage is where lush mushrooms grow abundantly, for an enhanced psychedelic experience. The fungi are delicate organisms and there is always a lot to look at here. The DJ booth is at the base of four of them, with a great view for the selector of the entire dancing crowd.

Youphoria stage

Terra Solis

​Terra Solis, Tomorrowland’s unique desert destination in Dubai, made it all the way to Belgium to host a stage. Adorned with desert-inspired decor, Terra Solis stage emerged like an oasis in the midst of the festival’s bustling energy.

Terra Solis stage

Rise

​One of the newcomers, the Rise stage, is nestled in green nature full of beautiful plants and summery vibes. The unique aspect of this stage lies in its dual role, as it not only showcases performances by renowned DJ stars but also serves as a platform for aspiring young DJ talents to showcase their skills through collaboration with the Tomorrowland Academy.
