Paris, France – October 16, 2025 – In a legendary moment for electronic music, international hardcore artist Hysta has delivered a spectacular 60-minute DJ set from the second floor of the Eiffel Tower. Consequently, she becomes the first French artist to represent hard music from one of the world’s most iconic landmarks.

The Historic Hysta Eiffel Tower Set Performance

Premiering today at 8:00 PM CET on YouTube (@HystaOfficial), the Hysta Eiffel Tower set marks an unprecedented fusion of French cultural heritage and hardcore electronic music. Moreover, filmed at sunrise from Paris’s most recognizable monument, this performance represents a watershed moment for the genre. It demonstrates that hardcore music has evolved from underground raves to commanding the world’s most prestigious stages.

“I never imagined that one day I’d text my grandmother: ‘Hi Grannie, this morning I played on the Eiffel Tower,'” Hysta shared. “At 16, I was playing illegal raves in forests with a crate of vinyls. Today, however, hardcore resonates from the Eiffel Tower.”

Two Years Behind the Eiffel Tower DJ Set

The Hysta Eiffel Tower set took nearly two years of independent planning to realize. Most of the budget went toward venue rental. Meanwhile, a small team of dedicated friends handled all production. Additionally, the crew faced a tight two-hour window at sunrise to set up equipment, record the performance, and break down.

Significant logistical challenges nearly derailed the project. For instance, the day before filming, protests in France canceled numerous trains. As a result, Hysta almost couldn’t reach Paris. Fortunately, her sister woke at 6 AM to drive her to the station, ensuring she could make the shoot. Against all predictions of rain, the weather cleared at the crucial moment. Therefore, this allowed the team to capture stunning footage with Paris as the backdrop.

Born Thaïs Morel in Nantes, France, Hysta spent her childhood between French Brittany and life on a sailboat across continents. Consequently, guided by resilience and devotion to her craft, she has risen from underground venues to the world’s biggest stages. Subsequently, she’s earned the title “The Heir of Hardcore.”

Starting at age 16, Hysta developed a unique style that honors hardcore’s origins. Furthermore, she infuses it with modern, melodic elements. Her performances at major festivals have established her as a boundary-pushing artist. Notably, Tomorrowland, Defqon.1, Boomtown, and Thunderdome have all featured her sets. In addition, she’s brought hardcore music to audiences across Europe, North and South America, Asia, the Middle East, and Oceania.

“My heart belongs to Hardcore,” Hysta emphasizes—a phrase that has become her signature motto.

Exclusive Track Debuts in the Hysta Eiffel Tower Set

For this unique performance, Hysta composed an original track titled “Little Things” to open the set. Specifically, the composition pays tribute to France and its cultural heritage. It reinterprets an iconic song from the beloved French film “Le Fabuleux Destin d’Amélie Poulain” (Amélie). Therefore, by blending this timeless theme with hardcore’s raw energy, she creates a powerful statement where tradition meets modernity.

Overall, the visual narrative captures Hysta’s artistic duality.

Puretone – Addicted To Bass (Dom Dolla Relapse)

The Australian king of house, Dom Dolla, puts his Midas touch on a certified classic with his Relapse of Puretone’s ‘Addicted To Bass’. Dom delivers a thick, rolling bassline and sharp modern percussion that breathes new life into the iconic vocal. It’s a nostalgic yet forward-thinking club weapon that has been a staple in his massive festival sets over the last few months, and it finally arrives today to dominate the charts.

Hardwell, Vini Vici & Mr.Black ft. Liquid Soul – Crazy People 2026

Hardwell, Vini Vici, Mr.Black, and Liquid Soul join forces for a 2026 update of the psy-trance-influenced anthem ‘Crazy People’. This version is engineered for maximum mainstage impact, featuring thunderous triplets, distorted kicks, and a relentless energy that bridges the gap between big-room techno and pure psy-trance euphoria.

Max White x Mindgazm – Midnight Voyage

Max White teams up with Mindgazm for a hypnotic indie dance collaboration, ‘Midnight Voyage’. Built for late-night momentum, the track is driven by a rolling groove and melodic textures that evolve with intention. It successfully blends emotional depth with an irresistible steady pulse, creating a moody, atmospheric record that locks the room in from the very first drop.

AFTER MIDNIGHT (Matroda & San Pacho) – Rich & Handsome

Acclaimed house innovators Matroda and San Pacho officially unveil their new collaborative project, AFTER MIDNIGHT, with the debut single ‘Rich & Handsome’. Designed specifically for the after-hours environment, the track merges Matroda’s technical precision with San Pacho’s raw energy. Led by CREG’s magnetic vocals, the record is confident, hypnotic, and built for movement. With a debut live performance set for Do LaB at Coachella, ‘Rich & Handsome’ establishes the tone for a project built around scarcity and cultural weight.

Nostalgix ft. Kiesza – Dancing Through It All

Trailblazer Nostalgix drops the final pre-album single from her debut LP, ‘Inferno’ (arriving March 27). Joining forces with the iconic Kiesza, ‘Dancing Through It All’ is an electrifying bass-house anthem built for celebration. While previous singles like ‘Fall Apart’ explored vulnerability, this collaboration is a heavy, dancefloor-ready reminder of Nostalgix’s high-energy roots. It’s the perfect hype-builder as she prepares for Ultra Music Festival and her upcoming headlining tour.

DJ Mii – BREAK YOUR NECK

Japanese powerhouse DJ Mii makes a massive statement today with ‘BREAK YOUR NECK’ on Monstercat. Known for blending hardstyle and live guitar, this release marks a deliberate pivot: her first track that is 100% dubstep from start to finish. Stripping back the hybrid structures, DJ Mii returns to the “core” tension and physical impact of the genre. Following support from legends like Hardwell, this high-energy experience is set to introduce her signature precision to a global audience.

R3HAB & RHODES – Right Here…

R3HAB leans into his melodic sensibilities alongside the soulful vocals of RHODES for the moving single ‘Right Here…’. It’s a beautifully produced mid-tempo record that balances R3HAB’s polished electronic layers with an organic, heartfelt core.
