Superstar DJs Steve Aoki & Nicky Romero come together for their Higher Off The Ground EP

Steve Aoki and Nicky Romero have joined forces on their Higher Off The Ground EP, a dynamic fusion of electro energy and tech house groove. The project features two standout cuts: “Higher Off The Ground,” a high-octane blend of driving basslines and electrifying synths, and “Day & Night,” a deeper, rolling groove that highlights both producers’ mastery of the tech house sound.

Aoki shares, “Working with Nicky on the Higher Off The Ground EP has been pure energy from day one. We’ve both been part of the dance music journey for so long, and this project is about pushing that evolution even higher. Every track is built for that moment when the crowd and the music connect – when you lift off the floor and hit that next level together. That’s the spirit of Higher Off The Ground.”

Romero adds, “I’m happy to be collaborating again with Steve after Be Somebody. It’s always a pleasure working with someone who has such a clear, creative, and conceptual vision. With the Higher Off the Ground EP, our goal was to create something that captures the energy of a mainstage/festival while maintaining the club feel.”

Both Steve Aoki and Nicky Romero have been key figures in the mainstage dance scene for years, and their combined efforts have proven to be a powerful force. With “Higher Off The Ground,” they elevate those skills – the EP is out now on Dim Mak / Protocol Recordings.

Driftmoon – High Wall

Tim Stark

‘High Wall’ unlocks the door to Driftmoon’s Sōnnux Music – the new recordings home that Juraj Klička, and Miikka Leinonen have built themselves.   Following the duo’s reunification in ‘23, when Miikka rejoined as a fulltime member, the pair have been on the march, not least with December’s extraordinary concept album, ‘Moonstruck’. Now, with Sōnnux, […]

Frankyeffe – Out Of This World EP

Tim Stark

Frankyeffe’s calling it an “EP”, though others might argue it’s closer to a full album. Either way, ‘Out Of This World’ makes one thing abundantly clear: when it comes to midnight studio oil and full-throated clubland firepower, Italy’s Francesco Fava’s not a man to do things by halves. Fresh from his ‘One More Night’ outing […]

Push – Known Universe

Tim Stark

This summer, Push returns to the album format with ‘Known Universe’ – the eighth longplayer in his eminent career. That ‘known universe’ specifically is the hardware-driven studio world that shaped his earliest work.

Having stopped to smell the roses for a few cycles, Roger Shah’s hallmark music compilation series returns to streams, stores and shelves in 2026. Onboard, naturally, is its usual, impeccable prog/trance/house blend of melodic-tropics, harmonic sonics, castaway chords, beachfront character and seaside atmosphere. Ready to do it to the summer, before the summer does it […]

Waking Up In A Northern Town by Christian Burns

Tim Stark

There’s been a long tradition of musicians from the north of England honouring their origins through their recordings – one that dates back as far as The Beatles’ penning ‘Penny Lane’. ‘North Country Boy’, ‘Hit The North’, ‘Life In A ‘Northern Town’, ‘The North At Its Heights’, ‘It’s Grim Up North’ – just a few […]
