Heavyweight disruptor Kayzo returns with another massive hard dance release, teaming up with hard techno force Manji on “FKN LOUDER,” set to drop Friday, April 17 via his own Welcome Records.
“Manji and I linked up to bring heavy distortion and nonstop energy to this. Kick building was key to this song and we wanted to take you everywhere with it,” says Kayzo.
A blistering fusion of hardcore and techno, “FKN LOUDER” is driven by distorted plucks, punishing kicks, and precision-focused production. The track is anchored by Manji’s fierce, anthem-ready vocals, cutting through a relentless blend of hardstyle screeches, heavy leads, and rawstyle-driven drops.
Widely recognized as a defining voice in the hard techno and hardstyle space, Manji has contributed to some of the genre’s most impactful releases, including collaborations with Holy Priest. The partnership captures both artists at full force—merging Kayzo’s genre-blurring intensity with Manji’s commanding presence to deliver a high-impact anthem built for peak-time chaos.
“We stopped trying to fit in and ended up creating something new,” adds Manji.
The release follows Kayzo’s recent announcement of his forthcoming Mixmag LAB debut, set to take place this summer at Webster Hall in New York City. The show will feature his “Presents The Cage” concept in partnership with We Are Love, highlighting his full transition into hard dance—a shift that has redefined his global positioning. With headline appearances alongside major European promoters like Teletech and recent stages shared with leading acts including Holy Priest, Kayzo continues to cement his place among the artists pushing hard dance into new territory.
