Protocol Recordings label head Nicky Romeroand powerhouse veteran Florian Picasso have teamed up for ‘Midnight Sun‘, a summertime anthem that will make your soundtrack to the upcoming festival season. Drawing from both Nicky‘s progressive melodies and uplifting vocals as well as Florian‘s signature, groovy instrumental sounds, the track evokes feel-good, carefree vibes that will last long after its final notes. ‘Midnight Sun’ draws to a big-room crescendo at its drop, making for a guaranteed dance floor smash that you’ll be hearing played out at every festival on your list. Check out what the guys have to say about their second collaboration, as they’ve already worked together in 2017 on ‘Only For Your Love’:

Working with Florian is always a pleasure, and we have a ton of fun in the studio. From the moment we started on this record I knew it was special and it all finally came together when we connected in Miami for Ultra. I’m hoping the fans will love it as much as we do.” – Nicky Romero

‘Midnight Sun’ has a lot of my own style, but Nicky took it to the next level and really helped the record to get to its full potential.” – Florian Picasso

Nicky Romero has quickly progressed from a young musical prodigy to one of the most prolific names in modern dance music. He is not only a talented DJ and producer but also the label mogul of Protocol Recordings and a mentor to the up-and-coming artists whose careers he helps to cultivate. Romero has both high-profile originals and hit collaborations with artists including AviciiCalvin HarrisNERVOZEDDand more. His latest releases have spanned the spectrum of electronic music, including his recent ‘Ups & Downs’ with W&W, ‘Ring the Alarm’ with David Guetta, dance/pop cross-over ‘Sometimes’ with DallasK, featuring XYLØ, and remixes for Martin Garrix and Jess Glynne. Through the constant evolution of his sound and reinvestment in emerging artists, Nicky has proved his ability to evolve with the ever-changing landscape of electronic music. Nicky‘s collaboration with Florian Picasso takes us back to the roots of the prominent progressive sound. 

Florian is synonymous with a high-octane style of dance music that focuses on larger-than-life, unrelenting riffs and raw textures and is squarely focused on the dance floor. It’s evident from the perfect company he keeps in his release schedule that he’s an artist with high standards and one whose output is piquing the interest of electronic music’s uppermost elite. After being a good friend of Martin Garrix‘s for some time, Florian collaborated with the young superstar to produce the massive ‘Make Up Your Mind’: a turbo-charged, glitchy, rowdy slice of electro house. The track received over 2M plays in just three weeks after release, cementing Picasso‘s rapidly rising status and introducing him to a vast new audience in the process. Above all, though, he’s staying grounded through all this success.

New EDM Friday is back once again with fresh music from Dimitri Vegas, David Guetta, Loreen, FISHER, Oliver Heldens, EDX, WHIPPED CREAM, and more. This week’s roundup is overflowing with massive collabs, dancefloor-ready anthems, and genre-blurring heat that shows just how wide the EDM landscape has become.

Dimitri Vegas, David Guetta, Loreen – Pum Pum

It’s bold, genre-bending, and marks a fresh chapter for all three artists involved.

FISHER, bbyclose – Blackberries

FISHER and bbyclose just dropped a serious contender for song of the summer with ‘Blackberries’, out now via CATCH & RELEASE. Built on a juicy rolling bassline, sun-soaked synths, and lush pads, the track delivers pure summer euphoria. bbyclose brings a catchy, confident vocal that seals the deal. Already rinsed at FISHER’s [UNVRS] residency in Ibiza and festivals like Electric Forest and Solidays, ‘Blackberries’ is playful, punchy, and primed to dominate global dancefloors all season long.

Oliver Heldens x Poppy Baskcomb – Heart Cry

Oliver Heldens taps into a deeper, more emotional register with ‘Heart Cry’, a melodic techno-meets-trance collaboration with rising UK vocalist Poppy Baskcomb. Out now on Heldeep Records, the track blends cinematic sound design with haunting vocals, creating a slow-burning tension that feels both intimate and expansive. Following a massive global tour and continued momentum as both Oliver Heldens and HI-LO, this release highlights his evolving artistry and ability to surprise while still moving dancefloors.

EDX – Moyo

Swiss house icon EDX returns with ‘Moyo’, a powerful, rhythm-driven single that blends his signature progressive style with tribal-inspired textures and deep club grooves. Out now via PinkStar Recordings, the track’s title, meaning “heart” in several South African languages, perfectly reflects its emotional and percussive core. From immersive, hypnotic builds to a driving drop built for late-night floors, ‘Moyo’ captures both movement and meaning. As EDX celebrates the 25th anniversary of his influential Sirup Music imprint, this release proves he’s still innovating, evolving, and shaping the global house scene with every beat.

WHIPPED CREAM – collide

WHIPPED CREAM unleashes collide, a genre-bending festival anthem that pushes her sonic vision to bold new heights. Out now via Monstercat, the track opens with haunting vocals, delivered by WHIPPED CREAM herself, before escalating into a euphoric drop packed with pulsating bass, rapid hi-hats, and a futuristic Eurodance edge. It’s raw, emotional, and high-energy all at once, showcasing her rare ability to blend powerful songwriting with leftfield electronic production.

A post shared by Pasquale Rotella (@pasqualerotella)

Dreamstate is a staple of the U.S. trance scene known for its euphoric energy. It will be taking place on November 21–22 in Long Beach, California. The stunning waterfront venue is also right next to the iconic Queen Mary. Dreamstate stands as one of the few large-scale trance festivals in the country, alongside newer events like Into the Sequence.

Tiësto’s appearance at Dreamstate will follow up his surprise “In Search of Sunrise” set at EDC Las Vegas earlier this year. Overall, the set was an emotional throwback to his origins in trance. It served as a reminder of the timeless sound that first launched his global career. With this Dreamstate set marking only his second trance performance of 2025, fans are left wondering: is this the beginning of a full-blown trance resurgence for Tiësto?

While the success of his genre-blending Prismatic Tour is still fresh, many fans are hopeful that more classic sets—or even a dedicated return to trance tour—could be on the horizon.
