Dance music heavyweights HARDWELL and Will Sparks combine their talents on their new track, “Twisted,” via Revealed Recordings.
Speaking about the collaboration, HARDWELL says, “I’m a big fan of the direction that Will’s taking his sound. It perfectly fits what I’m doing right now, so after we talked about working together on a track, we decided to do something that would stand out in our sets. We both love the ‘Your Mind Is Twisted’ sample, which led us into creating this rework loaded with a dose of unrelenting dancefloor energy.”
While Will Sparks adds, “HARDWELL and I had been chatting, he mentioned he loved the new direction of music I’ve taken over the past few years. Talks progressed, and the idea of collaborating came about. So we decided to come together to create a whole new meaning to big room techno. The sounds and impact this record provide, I’ve never played or heard before. Robbert is an incredible producer and engineer, it’s been amazing working together on this track!”
Dutch DJ and producer HARDWELL, twice voted the number one DJ in the world, has topped the charts with hits like “Spaceman,” “Apollo,” and “Run Wild,” amassing hundreds of millions of streams, along with over six million monthly Spotify listeners. He’s remixed for mega-stars such as Rihanna, Calvin Harris, Moby, U2, J Balvin, and Coldplay, while also delivering crossover smash hits with Craig David, Jay Sean, Austin Mahone, and Jason Derulo, along with collaborating with artists like Armin van Buuren, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, Steve Aoki, Afrojack, and Tiësto.
On his part, double Platinum producer Will Sparks made an immediate impact with the release of his hit single, “Ah Yeah,” followed by “Bring It Back.” Since then, he has collected more than 600 million streams, pioneered the Melbourne Bounce, and performed at the world’s elite festivals, including Ultra Music Festival, Creamfields, and Tomorrowland as well as residencies at some of the best global venues.
“Twisted” opens on powerful vocals riding swirling, twirling leitmotifs, and then flows into a thumping big room techno beat of massive proportions. A shimmering drop, followed by oscillating textures topped by distant vocals, give the tune mobile sonic shifts, culminating in a colossal, hard-hitting finale.
With “Twisted,” HARDWELL and Will Sparks deliver dazzling energy and potent textures brimming with galvanizing momentum.
