Following its surprise debut during a back-to-back performance at Tomorrowland, global dance music icon Steve Aoki and Dutch techno innovator Reinier Zonneveld have officially released their new collaboration, “On My Own,” featuring acclaimed vocalist Darla Jade.
Blending Aoki’s crossover sensibilities with Zonneveld’s uncompromising techno sound, “On My Own” delivers a powerful fusion of soaring vocals, hypnotic synth work, euphoric builds, and driving rhythms. The result is a melodic techno anthem designed to resonate equally on massive festival stages and deep into late-night club sets.
The collaboration made its live premiere during a surprise joint performance on the Dim Mak 30th Anniversary Stage at Tomorrowland, where thousands of fans experienced the track for the first time. The performance quickly became one of the festival’s standout moments, highlighting the creative chemistry the pair have developed both in the studio and behind the decks.
Reflecting on the milestone performance, Steve Aoki said:
“It was incredible to celebrate 30 years of Dim Mak on one of the biggest stages in the world. I’ve been performing at Tomorrowland for 15 years, and it’s become such an important part of both my story and Dim Mak’s. Every year the crowd embraces what we’re building, so we wanted to make this anniversary celebration truly special. Having Reinier join me to premiere our new collaboration made the moment even more unforgettable.”
Reinier Zonneveld echoed the excitement surrounding the release, adding:
“Super excited and happy to bring this surprising collaboration to the table! Steve and I have a really good click in the studio, and we’ve recorded some really cool underground tracks together.”
Musically, “On My Own” showcases the strengths of all three collaborators. Darla Jade’s emotive vocal performance provides a melodic centerpiece, while Aoki and Zonneveld balance cinematic atmospheres with relentless techno energy. The production seamlessly shifts between uplifting breakdowns and pounding drops, creating a track that bridges festival accessibility with underground club intensity.
The release arrives during another busy year for Reinier Zonneveld, who continues to push the boundaries of live techno performance. His packed summer schedule includes appearances at major European festivals such as Sunrise Festival in Poland, Isle of Summer Beach in Germany, R² Festival in The Netherlands, Creamfields in the United Kingdom, and Decibel Open Air in Italy.
Meanwhile, “On My Own” also serves as another highlight in Dim Mak’s ongoing 30th anniversary celebration. Throughout 2026, Steve Aoki has commemorated three decades of his influential label with special events, exclusive festival takeovers, and the global Dim Mak 30 Tour, celebrating the imprint’s lasting impact on electronic music culture.
Upcoming stops on the Steve Aoki Dim Mak 30 Tour include performances at SUMMER SONIC in Tokyo, The Rave / Eagles Club in Milwaukee, Bill Graham Civic Auditorium in San Francisco, The Armory in Minneapolis, The Rooftop at Pier 17 in New York City, and EDC Orlando.
With “On My Own,” Steve Aoki, Reinier Zonneveld, and Darla Jade deliver a collaboration that blends melodic emotion with peak-time techno power, further cementing the growing connection between festival-scale electronic music and the underground sounds driving today’s global dance scene.
