Out now via Spinnin’ Records, the new edit sees the Dutch dance music superstar take the classic yet haunting lines of Pink Floyd’s timeless 1979 hit into a house anthem. Heldens draws the track into even deeper club territory, whipping out punchy kicks and dynamic percussion to pair with moody synths and long, winding crescendos. The uptempo rendition makes it impossible to not dance along while the song’s deep, psychedelic sound design takes on a trance-like backing rhythm...

With each new single, Hardwell pours gasoline on the hype surrounding REBELS NEVER DIE. After today’s release of “LASER,” he has now unveiled 11 singles from the long-awaited comeback album.

We managed to track down the origin of the sample, which interpolates a 1967 broadcast by legendary anchorman Walter Cronkite. Narrating an episode of the CBS documentary series “21st Century,” Cronkite explored the possibilities of the laser eight years after the technology’s first patent ...
