Frenchcore pioneer Dr. Peacock has just released his ‘Tripping with Dr. Peacock’ album, via Frenchcore Worldwide. The ‘Tripping with Dr. Peacock’ album marks a new chapter for the Frenchcore producer, taking fans on an immersive musical journey across the globe through 17 explosive tracks.

Following the successful conclusion of his monumental 15 Years of Dr. Peacock Tour, which culminated in a sold-out finale at Bootshaus Cologne (ranked #4 club in the world), the Dutch producer shows no signs of slowing down. The ‘Tripping with Dr. Peacock’ album serves as a celebration of his iconic “Trip to” series that has defined his career from the beginning.

The album features several high-profile collaborations that showcase Dr. Peacock‘s genre-crossing vision:

‘Trip to Kyoto’ featuring Anamorphic serves as the standout single and intro track to his live sets. With mesmerizing vocals and a cinematic build-up, it has quickly become a fan favorite.

‘Trip to Italia’ with Rooler fuses Frenchcore and Hardstyle with lento violento, the style first invented by Gigi D’Agostino. This collaboration has been embraced by fans across both genres.

‘Trip to The Future’ with JDX earned the prestigious honor of being chosen as the official soundtrack for the Defqon.1 Opening Ceremony.

The album also features collaborations with Uptempo artists like Lil Texas on ‘Trip to USA’ and Pinotello on ‘Trip to The Arcade’, bridging Frenchcore with the most extreme ends of harder styles.

Despite not being able to travel by plane due to health reasons, Dr. Peacock remains one of the most in-demand artists worldwide. Festival promoters go the extra mile to bring him to their stages, even booking him for virtual experiences. At Midnight Mafia 2025 in Australia, hosted by HSU, Dr. Peacock showcased a full performance recorded in the Netherlands and streamed live at the event, proving that distance is no barrier to his creativity and fan connection.

The artwork and concept for the album reflects his signature style, trippy, colorful, and immersive. The visuals transport audiences through diverse landscapes, worlds, and iconic landmarks from the countries featured on the album. His upcoming ‘Tripping with Dr. Peacock’ shows across Europe will feature brand new visuals, fully time-coded to the music, creating a complete sensory journey.

Steve Dekker, known professionally as Dr. Peacock, is one of the most influential figures in the global hard dance scene. As a pioneer of the Frenchcore genre, he transformed the underground style, characterized by roughly 200 beats per minute, into a worldwide phenomenon.

His catalogue features standout hits such as ‘Trip to Valhalla’ and ‘Drink’, along with crossover collaborations that have expanded Frenchcore’s reach. Together with his longtime ally Sefa, he earned a Golden Record in the Netherlands for their track ‘Muzika’.

Dr. Peacock has performed on the world’s most prestigious stages, including Defqon.1‘s legendary mainstage, Parookaville, and Dominator Festival. He has also laid the foundation for the future of Frenchcore through his record labels: Frenchcore Worldwide, Peacock Records, INNERCORE, and most recently, UNIFYD (co-founded with Doris and D’ort).

Sub Zero Project returned to Asia with a bang, catching up with us at Together Festival to talk Thailand, Tomorrowland, and more.

After a long-awaited return to Asia, Sub Zero Project sat down with us at Together Festival to share what it feels like to reconnect with their fans in Thailand, reflect on a career-defining Tomorrowland debut, and dive into their explosive new collaboration with Hardwell.

How does it feel to be back playing at Together Festival?

It’s amazing. We haven’t been back to Asia in a while so to be back in Thailand for us it’s always amazing. As you’ve said, we’ve been playing here for several years now and the crowd always feels so warm and welcoming. We just had a meet and greet with all the fans and they’re all so happy. We just can’t wait to play.

How was debuting on the Tomorrowland mainstage this year?

It was the biggest highlight in our career and we looked up to that moment for a long time. Every one knew what happened with the mainstage, and that the festival went through made people go ten times as hard. It was a big relief and it was a day we will never forget. Given that the stage was lower this time, and really close to the crowd, you could really hear the people and what they were screaming which was really cool. It’s always nice to have like a club setting which was what it felt like where you can connect with the people. It was new Tomorrowland to have a mainstage like that but maybe for the future they could do something like that again with the normal stage.

Could you tell us about your collaborations with Hardwell? How has that been?

It’s been amazing and it was about time we did a follow-up to Judgement Day with Hardwell. We have such good chemistry in the studio and you can hear that in the track (Brace For Impact), it’s been one of our highlights in every set since we’ve been playing it and there’s a whole hype around it at the moment so its amazing. Hardwell is such an amazing guy and a great producer and we always have the best fun with him in the studio.

EDM pioneer Rob GEE is back with a new track that bridges the gap between old-school rave energy and modern production techniques. “This Is My Sound” showcases the veteran producer’s ability to evolve while staying true to his roots; delivering a fresh perspective on dance music that’s already igniting dancefloors across the globe.

Known for his signature 200 BPM productions, GEE takes an interesting turn with “This Is My Sound,” setting the tempo at 168 BPM. This deliberate choice allows the track’s powerful kick drum to breathe while maintaining the high-energy atmosphere that fans have come to expect. GEE dubs this fusion of groovy beats and hard dance energy ‘NüCøre,’ marking an exciting evolution in his sound while staying true to the harder styles.

The track has already proven its worth in clubs across the Netherlands, United States, Italy, Austria, and Australia and lit up the dancefloor at major festivals such as Defqon1, Escape, and Ground Zero, demonstrating that GEE’s musical instincts remain as sharp as ever.

“I wanted to go back to my roots a bit and really bring the 909 to the forefront because there’s a lot piepness going on right now,” GEE explains. “At the same time, I wanted to put some of today’s sauce on it production wise, and most of all I just want to see people dance.”

The track features GEE’s distinctive vocals and melodies, but with an endearing twist – the vocal samples used in the track are actually the same ones he uses to communicate with his famous dog, Buster Black. This personal touch adds another layer of authenticity to a production that’s already brimming with character.

Speaking of Buster Black, the track’s artwork pays clever homage to the iconic RCA Victor logo, which featured Nipper the dog listening to a phonograph. GEE’s modern interpretation places Buster Black in front of a wall of speakers, creating a perfect visual metaphor for the track’s blend of classic and contemporary elements.

In an era where many artists chase trends, “This Is My Sound” stands as a testament to GEE’s commitment to artistic authenticity. The track’s groovy, yet energetic approach demonstrates that innovation doesn’t require abandoning one’s musical identity. Instead, it’s about finding new ways to express that identity while keeping the dancefloor moving.

“This Is My Sound” is available now on all major platforms from GEE thAng Music.
