    Marking his biggest London show to date, Oliver Heldens will be putting on an explosive performance with fellow Hedeep Records artists and a packed set full of his own exclusive track drops.  The artist will be performing in Printworks’ cavernous Press Halls main area, which will be his first show in London since he sold out the venue in 2019.

    Because this will be his first return to London since the pandemic, tickets are expected to sell out quickly.  Fans can sign-up to receive access to purchase tickets to Oliver Heldens at Printworks London at the following link. 

    To coincide with this announcement, Oliver Heldens also revealed that he will be hosting a headline show at Amsterdam’s legendary Melkweg on October 13 during Amsterdam Dance Event.

    This news follows the release of two tracks where he showcased his darker techno alias HI-LO.  The first was a collaboration with Reinier Zonneveld on ¨Saw Of Olympus” and the second was with Will Clarke on ‘Check.¨ Within a span of a year, the artist has dropped 26 original releases and remixes under his two monikers, making him Beatport’s best-selling artist of 2020.  He also became the most played artist on 1001tracklists and one of the Top 450 most-streamed names on Spotify.  For additional information on Oliver Heldens, please visit his official website.

    Showcasing the artist’s sonic diversity, “Zapdos” is an electrifying dance floor-ready release inspired by the original legendary Pokémon.  With an aim to create the feel of the rising mythical creature phoenix, the track incorporates trailblazing percussive elements amidst brooding bass.  The release’s arcade-laden hook irresistibly stimulates the senses toward sheer aural bliss.

    “Zapdos” marks Oliver Heldens’ second release of 2020 and follows the release “Never Look Back” which went on to amass millions of streams in a matter of weeks.  Coming off an impressive 2020, Heldens released 25 stellar tracks under his own name and HI-LO alias and was crowned the highest and best-selling artist on Beatport.  He became the most supported artist on 1001tracklists, reached the DJ Mag Top 10 for the third year in a row, and remained as Spotify’s Top 450 most-streamed artists in the world.
