R3HAB and Afrojack Strengthen Their Friendship with New Single “Shockwave.” Out Now on MDLBEAST Records

Iconic Dutch producers and longtime friends R3HAB and Afrojack once again team up on a new collaborative release, “Shockwave,” their next festival gem that follows their 2022’s hit and Tomorrowland‘s official anthem – “Worlds On Fire,” featuring Au/Ra. With noticeable elements of big-room, house, and bass sound, it showcases both R3HAB’s and Afrojack’s signature styles while still standing out among the masses of other mainstage records.

With its stabbing synths, massive drop, and dancefloor-friendly bass, “Shockwave” is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser from these two heavyweights. Over the last decade, R3HAB and Afrojack have played back-to-back sets at the world’s biggest festivals, produced music together, remixed each other, and developed a long-lasting friendship along the way.

Afrojack and I have worked together for over ten years, and this last year has been the best yet. We released our anthem “Worlds On Fire,” remixed each other’s records, and played B2B sets at the world’s biggest festivals. We’re excited to start 2023 with “Shockwave,” which is unlike any record we’ve worked on yet. It’s been a staple in our sets as we’ve developed it, and it’s finally ready for its official debut. Each year keeps getting better, and we can’t wait to see what this one has in store.” – R3HAB

“It’s been great being back together with R3HAB. We’ve got many records ready to pop; you can find some already in our sets, and we’ve been testing “Shockwave” for a while now and we’re pumped to put it out now!” – Afrojack
