Kölsch Boosts Kevin de Vries’ 'Dance With Me'

Kevin De Vries first came on the scene in 2015 and in the seven years to follow, he has made it clear why there is so much attention on the realm of melodic house and techno right now.

De Vries has championed a sound that is unmistakable. To be able to pour so much emotion; so much intrigue; so much suspense into music meant for the club is a talent sought after by many but attained by few.

His is music of self-discovery as much as it is self-indulgence. He creates the tracks that convince everyone on the dance floor to put away their phones and become drenched in the ineffable combination of techno and trance.

It’s no wonder he has caught the ears and hearts of some of dance music’s most celebrated record labels including Sven Väth’s Cocoon, Adam Beyer’s Drumcode and most recently Tale Of Us’ label Afterlife.

Afterlife is where he’s made real waves, perfectly aligning with the intentions with which the bosses, Tale Of Us, have built their own empire. His 2020 

with Innelea saw the two immense rising talents come together in a fashion that can only be described as epic.

Kevin’s DJ sets hone to the audio aesthetic of his original productions while expanding upon them endlessly. The sounds of tomorrow reside alongside 90s classics in a living timeline of club music that he has dissected in sets all over the world at major festivals like Awakenings and  Tomorrowland Winter.

All eyes are on Kevin De Vries at the moment, and he will surely continue creating reasons to keep that focus fixed and unwavering.

Tomorrowland is one of the world’s largest and most iconic electronic music festivals, held annually in Boom, Belgium. Since its inception in the mid-2000s, it has evolved from a modest one-day event into a multi-weekend extravaganza that draws hundreds of thousands of “People of Tomorrow” from around the globe. Each summer, the festival transforms the De Schorre park into a magical wonderland where music and fantasy converge amid elaborate stages and massive crowds.

Each edition of Tomorrowland is built around an immersive theme that influences everything from the décor to the Mainstage design. Over the years, the festival grounds have been turned into fairy-tale forests, enchanted kingdoms, and underwater worlds. Iconic Mainstage sets - from the giant open book of the “Book of Wisdom” to the carnival-style wonders of “Amicorum Spectaculum” - have set new benchmarks for festival production. Enormous moving stages, pyrotechnics, and synchronized light shows create a multi-sensory experience.

Tomorrowland boasts an unparalleled lineup of electronic music talent across all subgenres. Its stages have been headlined by superstar DJs like

Beyond the music, the atmosphere fosters a sense of global unity - attendees wave flags from every corner of the world, and Tomorrowland’s motto “Live Today, Love Tomorrow, Unite Forever” is reflected in the crowd’s camaraderie. This celebration of diversity and togetherness has become central to Tomorrowland’s identity, turning the event into a cultural melting pot.

Tomorrowland’s success in Belgium led to international editions carrying its spirit abroad.

Its high-production spectacle and emphasis on storytelling have set new standards, inspiring other music festivals worldwide. Through its aftermovies and live broadcasts, Tomorrowland has helped push electronic dance music into the mainstream. Today, it stands not just as an annual festival, but as a symbol of global unity and the transformative power of music.
