Wiwek Is Back on Revealed Recordings With His New Hard-Hitting Jungle Terror Single “Remedy”

After 9 long years, the Dutch DJ and super-producer Wiwek returns to Hardwell‘s Revealed Recordings with his new release “Remedy.” As the creator of his signature genre “jungle terror,” Wiwek truly brings the heat with this one; the track begins with a driving, minimal bassline and prominent whistle effects, then he turns things up a notch with multiple layers of adrenaline-inducing beats. The crescendo of “Remedy” has a nearly hardstyle flavor, making for a sinister sonic experience that’s bound to heat up the rest of the summer and beyond. Wiwek last released on Revealed Recordings in 2015 with his collaboration with Hardwell himself, “Chameleon,” and some listeners may even find the return ironic with the slightly nostalgic rave sound of “Remedy.” The single follows Wiwek’s “Rush” (Rave Culture) and his “Jungle Terror vol. 5” EP (Barong Family) from earlier this year. 

A true rebel with a cause, Wiwek isn’t just a DJ, he’s a genre pioneer. Carving out his own sonic space with “jungle terror,” a wild fusion of electronic madness, tribal percussion, and animalistic energy, Wiwek has soundtracked international films, collaborated with Skrillex on genre-bending anthems like “Killa,” and built his own creative haven, Maha Vana Records, a label that lets artists run wild. Fresh off his debut album “Cycles,” Wiwek is ready to unleash a new sonic adventure, one that promises to push boundaries and ignite dance floors. He’s also the mastermind behind the “The Free and Rebellious” EP, which became the soundtrack to a film shot in Bangkok, further solidifying his unique blend of music and storytelling. With a constant stream of new music and exciting projects brewing, 2024 is shaping up to be another explosive year for Wiwek
