Finland’s Darude and Australia’s Mashd N Kutcher recently released their new track, ‘HYPE’, which is out now on Vibing Out!
The collaboration began with Darude laying the foundations of drums, house piano keys and grooves inspired by the emotive sounds that have shaped his career. Mashd N Kutcher then injected their influence from UK hard house, Melbourne bounce and their own original rap topline. Darude then completed the track with a trance-infused breakdown and final mixdown.
Darude: “I hope listeners let go of any negativity and feel energised by the music. Let's come together to dance and get hyped!"
Mashd N Kutcher: “After meeting Darude on tour in Australia, he sent me over some stems to work on, I really wanted to make a record that was something ‘HYPE’ for both of our shows, safe to say this is what we have!”
Since launching in 2012, MNK have performed more than 1,500 shows across Australia, Asia, Europe, India and the United States, while earning multiple platinum records and a #12 placement in the Triple J Hottest 100.
‘HYPE’ became the closing moment of Darude’s STORM 25 World Tour, which saw him perform in more than 60 cities across five continents, honouring fans and friends for their support in his over two-decade career. Night after night, the track soundtracked the show finale as Darude stepped into the crowd to celebrate and dance with fans.
The track also marks the next public chapter for Vibing Out, Darude’s artist-first label platform that champions forward-thinking electronic music and community-driven culture.
