Hardwell has always been a strong advocate for supporting new talent in the dance music industry. The no. 1 DJ in the world has time and again given fresh new blood a chance on his label Revealed Recordings. And in an interview with radio station Capital Xtra, the Dutch titan revealed the 5 producers/DJs he thinks will be making a great impact in 2015.
Julian Calor
“Sounds-wise it’s completely different from any EDM thing I’ve ever heard before.”
Hardwell compared the Julian Calor‘s sound to that of ‘Deadmau5 from back in the day’ and is especially impressed by the use of chords by Calor.
Kill The Buzz
Next on the list is Hardwell’s long time friend and fellow record label artist, Kill The Buzz, who with his constant original productions and remixes since 2012 has been gaining steady support from his peers.
DallasK
“He’s definitely one of the guys that’s going to break through this year”
Hardwell met DallasK back in 2012 and have constantly stayed in touch since. When DallasK sent Hardwell the idea for ‘Area 51‘, Hardwell instantly loved it and collaborated with him on the track, which eventually got released on his album ‘United We Are‘.
Joey Dale
“I’ve heard a lot of demos from his recent stuff, he’s really driven in what he wants…”
Another young Dutch prodigy, Joey Dale collaborated with Hardwell on the track ‘Arcadia‘, which also got released on Hardwell’s debut album ‘United We Are‘.
Thomas Newson
“He’s the son of Marco V – I think he learnt a lot from his dad.”
The son of legendary trance producer Marco V, Thomas Newson has been making quite the name for himself with a sleuth of original productions and remixes that have had people sit up and take notice. Hardwell describes him as “diverse” and “energetic”, something he must have learnt from his father.
