We don’t need a time machine to relive the 2010s because The Cataracs are officially back with new music. After 14 years, the duo has reunited and is set to release “Make Ya Body Whistle” with Dev on February 21, 2025.
For those who grew up on their music, this moment is surreal. The Cataracs were responsible for shaping an era of electronic and hip-hop-infused party tracks that defined a generation. Songs like “Like a G6” and “Bass Down Low” became global hits, introducing millions to their unique production style. The announcement of their return has sparked excitement from longtime fans who never thought they would see another release from them.
A Full-Circle Moment for KSHMR Fans
It is hard to believe that I have been a fan of KSHMR since his early days as part of The Cataracs, and now, after all these years, it feels like everything is coming full circle. Niles Hollowell-Dhar went on to become one of the most recognized producers in electronic music, but his roots were in this duo. Seeing him return to this project brings back memories of an era when their music was everywhere, and it is clear that many fans feel the same way.
The teaser for “Make Ya Body Whistle” suggests that this is not just a nostalgic throwback. The visuals feature futuristic, liquid-metal aesthetics with a whistle at the center, signaling a fresh take on their identifiable and unique sound. Instead of trying to recreate the past, The Cataracs seem to be embracing their evolution while staying true to the style that made them stand out in the first place.
David “Campa” Singer-Vine: The Other Half of the Original Duo
While KSHMR went on to dominate the electronic music world, David “Campa” Singer-Vine was equally instrumental in shaping The Cataracs’ signature sound. As co-producer and songwriter, he played a crucial role in crafting the duo’s infectious blend of hip-hop and electronic music, contributing to hits like “Like a G6” and “Bass Down Low.”
After departing in 2012 to focus on songwriting and production, Campa largely stayed behind the scenes, working on various projects outside the mainstream spotlight. Now, over a decade later, he is officially back alongside KSHMR, reuniting The Cataracs in full force. His return ensures that their upcoming music stays true to the roots that made them a defining act of the 2010s while embracing the evolution of their sound.
Dev’s Return Completes the Comeback
A Cataracs reunion would not be complete without Dev. Her voice was a key part of their biggest tracks, and her role in this comeback makes it feel like a true return rather than just a one-off release. Over the years, she has continued to build her solo career, but her chemistry with The Cataracs was something that set their music apart. Now, after more than a decade, they are back together and ready to introduce a new era of their sound.
What Comes Next?
With “Make Ya Body Whistle” just days away, there is already speculation about whether this marks the beginning of something bigger. Is this a one-time release, or could there be an entire project in the works?
Regardless of what happens next, the excitement around their return proves how much of an impact they had. Fans who spent the early 2010s blasting their music are now getting to experience a moment they never thought would come. Whether it is nostalgia or curiosity about their next chapter, one thing is clear: The Cataracs are not just back, they are making people talk.
February 21 is going to be a day to remember as we’ll be reliving all our 2010’s vibes all over again!
