DANCES WITH WOLVES
With 2015 the energetic and inescapable pair of electronic music’s
promises Wolfpack are celebrating their fourth anniversary and right at this
point we can state that it has only just begun.
Debuting at Tomorrowland in 2011 with their unique spark of uplifting
bridges and ruthless big-room drops, the brotherly duo of Dimitri Vegas &
Like Mike signed up to their Smash The House roster immediately.
«With the quartet all collectively hailing from the
town of Willebroek, Antwerp, the label bosses re-kindled their childhood
friendship with local natives Wolfpack, through a love of positively-led, bold
electronic music. Fast forward several years and the pair now find themselves
riding high on a wave of hype and success, as exclusive recording artists to
the Smash The House imprint and most enviably, official protégées of the
world-renowned brothers. But amidst this family-like affair, Wolfpack - also
known as Steve and Ruben to their nearest and dearest - have watched their
production work surge across the globe, catching the attention of fans, critics
and peers alike.».
Wolfpack believe that their name mirrors a group of friends in a day by
day growth, by the strong belief in living life without conforming to crowds
and helping each other, leading instead of following the flow - Wolfpack
demonstrate the ultimate unstoppable qualities that their music can manifest
itself into, considering themselves and their music fans together as a single
entity. «Their rise in 2014 was so
astronomical, Wolfpack debuted in DJ Mag’s Top 100 DJs poll at a well-received
#84 position, a win they described as “unreal”, though certainly not eluding
the worthy expectations from industry insiders and ravers alike.».
Aside the massive performances Wolfpack had at Tomorrowland, which
include a well deserved set on the main stage in 2012 and a headline the Smash
The House stage in 2013, they also blew minds internationally opening up for
their mentors on Smash The House dates across USA, Europe, India, South America,
the Middle East and beyond. The duo also take part to a starring appearance at
the inaugural American version of TomorrowWorld show in Atlanta back in 2013
and returned to blast away the Tomorrowland mainstage once more in 2014.
Collaborating with UK starlet Katy B for a vocal edit of the official
TomorrowWorld anthem, ‘Find Tomorrow (Ocarina)’ is only one of the great things
the duo achieved, along with the hot-off-the-press Bobby Puma collaboration
‘Jump’ and the GTA co-produced ‘Turn It Up’.
«Wolfpack’s reputation for providing electric sets
grows with every whirlwind journey across countries and continents, each
release also harvesting their deep-rooted passion for a collaborative essence,
weather this be their undeniable chemistry between each other as a unit, or the
internationally invited guest-stars they mould with, blurring genres and
ushering in new ears each time.».
In 2014 they performed on the stages of internationally-respected
clubbing houses from South Africa to Singapore at venues including Ministry Of
Sound, Las Vegas’s Light and hold down a weekly residency at Amnesia in Ibiza
before jetting on a party flight from Oslo, to take on Tomorrowland once more.
Then, there was their party-slaying sets at both Manchester’s legendary
Victoria Warehouse venue and Belgium’s Sportpaleis Antwerpen, as part of
Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike’s ‘Smash The UK’ and ‘Bringing The World The
Madness’ tours, proving these boys can hold their own, even on the World’s most
rousing stages.
2015 itself looks ready to be a massive standout year for the Wolfpack
duo, thanks to a combination of hotly anticipated productions. With label
link-ups for imprints such as Steve Aoki’s Dim Mak and their musical home,
Smash The House; Wolfpack are on the right track, and about to well validate
their position as frontrunners in the electronic scene for the upcoming years
