Merow Talks “Different Dimension” at Space Plus Bangkok
Merow Talks “Different Dimension” at Space Plus Bangkok for the STMPD RCRDS 10-Year Tour During Songkran in Bangkok
Merow talks about Different Dimension and her Bangkok show during the STMPD RCRDS 10-Year Anniversary Tour at Space Plus Bangkok, where the night also tied into the club’s reopening during Songkran. The tour marks ten years of STMPD RCRDS since its launch under Martin Garrix, with a roster that continues to bring both established names and newer artists into the same space across club and festival lineups. Merow is part of that newer group, building her presence through releases connected to STMPD RCRDS and performances alongside artists from the label, including shows linked to Martin Garrix at Ushuaïa Ibiza. In conversation, she spoke about her track Different Dimension, which followed her earlier collaboration The Mind Shaker with Moxy, explaining that the track came together quickly in the studio, with the melody in the break playing a key role in finishing the record and developing the drop. She also reflected on returning to Ibiza, her first time playing during Songkran in Bangkok, and how her recent shows across Asia are influencing her plans to play more festivals while continuing to test new ideas in her sets.
To start with your track “Different Dimension,” what was your creative process behind it?
“Well, I made a track with Moxy before. It’s called ‘The Mind Shaker,’ and it really does well live. So we were like, we need to get into the studio and make another song. We went to the studio and within a day we had the full track. For me, it’s the melody in the break that gave us a lot of inspiration to finish it and work on a drop as well.”
How does it feel to be on the Ushuaïa Ibiza lineup this year with Martin Garrix?
“It’s always so special. This is my third time now, I think. Every year it’s just super special to be there. I love Ibiza. It’s always sun, beach, and good vibes. So yeah, I’m very happy to be back again.”
Now we are here for the STMPD RCRDS 10-Year Anniversary Tour and Space Plus Bangkok reopening. How does it feel to be here and play during Songkran season?
“Yeah, this is my first time playing during Songkran. So for me it was very special to see everybody with the water fights and everything. We went to the club a few hours ago for the sound check and it looks amazing with the visuals and the LED screens. It’s just crazy. So I’m very excited for the set.”

How do you feel about Bangkok as a whole?
“I love the crowds. They’re always very energetic and the community here is always very good. Last year I didn’t have much time to explore the city, but this time I have a free day after my show. So yeah, we’re definitely going to go explore the city and check it out.”
Looking ahead, what are your plans and future prospects?
“For me, I always love playing in Asia. The crowds are amazing, so I would love to play more festivals as well. I’ve been playing a lot of clubs, so I would love to experience that too. Next to that, I have a lot of collabs that I’m working on and I’m going to play a lot of new ideas. I’m just super curious to see the reaction of the crowds and I can’t wait for that.”
This stop in Bangkok adds a different layer to Merow’s schedule, with her first time playing during Songkran placing the night outside of a regular club booking. At Space Plus Bangkok, the setting connects directly to the STMPD RCRDS 10-Year Anniversary Tour, where her appearance sits within a lineup that reflects how STMPD RCRDS continues to bring newer artists into its shows during a milestone year.
Merow Talks about her time in Asia as something she wants to continue building on, especially with the response she has been getting from crowds across recent shows. That direction also links to her plans going forward, with more festival bookings in mind while she continues testing new ideas in her sets. In that sense, the night in Bangkok does not stand on its own, but connects to a period where her studio work and touring schedule are moving alongside each other, leading into the next run of releases and shows tied to STMPD RCRDS.
