What's the future of DJing? Just 23-years-young, fresh-faced, Dutch born-and-bred, Hardwell is already at the top of his game. Playing the main stage at this year's Creamfields and releasing Beatport top tenners 'Encoded', 'The World' and 'Cobra' through his own label Revealed have been lofty moments for him. He spent a good part of the summer touring with the mighty Tiësto. “It was a great experience for me!” he beams. Hailing from the same town, it was only going to be a matter of time before they hooked up. After an invitation to join Tiësto at Privilege, hitting the studio together was the natural progression. “One of the highlights of this year is the track I did with Tiësto, 'Zero 76', and because of that, we did a whole tour together in the United States.” Hardwell's remix of Tiësto's classic 'Love Comes Again' is out this month. And despite having a lot of new material for release, Hardwell isn't going to rush into album territory, preferring instead to steadily fire out big room solo tracks.
