Hardwell

About

He's the Dutch titan who redefined big room house, a sonic architect capable of whipping stadium crowds into frenzied euphoria with a single drop: Hardwell. Born Robbert van de Corput, Hardwell ascended from teenage prodigy to global DJ icon, leaving an indelible mark on the EDM landscape. His sound, a potent blend of high-energy electro house, progressive house melodies, and trance-infused atmospheres, quickly became a festival staple. Breakthrough moments like his official remix of Rihanna's "Where Have You Been" and his legendary "Spaceman" propelled him to the top of the DJ Mag Top 100, a position he held for two consecutive years. Beyond chart dominance, Hardwell built a cultural empire around his Revealed Recordings label, nurturing emerging talent and championing the big room sound worldwide. Collaborations with Tiësto, Armin van Buuren, and W&W further cemented his status. After a period of reflection and creative rejuvenation, Hardwell made a triumphant return to the stage in 2022, unveiling a darker, more techno-influenced sound that signaled a bold new chapter. This evolution showcases an artist refusing to be confined by past successes, continuing to push the boundaries of electronic music.
