If you’re still on the fence about whether or not to take the plunge and enter the world of Hydeout, here’s a brief glimpse into the lineup, with 5 of our favourite performances on the platform so far.

Our Top 5 Sets on Hydeout: The Prelude

1. Charli XCX

Grammy-nominated British artist Charli XCX rose into the spotlight almost a decade ago, when she collaborated with Icona Pop to release the 2012 summer anthem I Love It. Over the course of her career she has gained a reputation as one of pop music’s most influential acts, and earlier this year announced that she’s working on her fifth studio album.

2. Martin Garrix

Stmpd Records founder and former champion of DJ Mag’s Top 100, Martin Garrix is one of the biggest acts to feature on Hydeout: The Prelude’s roster. Garrix is a name that needs no introductions, having gained fame that stretches far beyond the EDM community and headlining countless festivals around the world. At just 25 years old, the Dutch DJ even starred in dance music documentary What We Started, alongside British house and techno royalty Carl Cox.

3. Alison Wonderland

Aussie artist Alison Wonderland is another worth paying attention to on Hydeout: The Prelude. The bass enthusiast previously made news when she was crowned DJ Mag Top 100 DJ’s Highest Climber, jumping 52 places in one year to No. 44.

4. Tinashe

Describing her music as “rhythmic pop”, Tinashe is gearing up to release her fifth studio album this year, less than two years after her sensational album Songs For You. The American artist riled up fans in May by posting a teaser to social media, with the cryptic caption “333” leaving many guessing about what’s in store.

5. Sam Feldt

Joining the likes of fellow Dutchman Martin Garrix, Sam Feldt has a string of hits under his belt and is a must-see for fans of deep house. In 2020, Feldt released the first track Hold Me Close on his own record label, Heartfeldt Records, and also established his climate change-focused charity: Heartfeldt Foundation.
