Seven years after beginning his career, Dutch hardstyle sensation KELTEK is set to release his debut album, ‘Music Is Magic’, on November 22 through SCANTRAXX. This 12-track album is a heartfelt tribute to the transformative power of music, blending KELTEK’s iconic sound with high-energy collaborations and exclusive tracks. Alongside his debut album, KELTEK also welcomed twins into the world this year, adding to his own celebration of magic. Amongst everything moving fast around him, his dedication to music ran high as he crafted an album that captures this journey, reflecting growth, and the ability of music to ground us even in busy times.
Known for his anthems and live shows at events like Defqon.1 and Intents Festival, KELTEK has solidified his status in the hardstyle scene. Earlier this year, he performed an exclusive ‘Music Is Magic’ showcase at Defqon.1, which received an incredible response from tens of thousands of hard dance fans. The album’s lead single, ‘Never Change’, sees KELTEK collaborating with hardstyle legend Ran-D. “After over two decades of friendship, creating a track together was a long-awaited dream!” says KELTEK. “This track captures our shared passion for the genre.” The result is a powerful anthem featuring bold drops and relentless kicks, sure to captivate hardstyle enthusiasts.
“Music Is Magic is the theme song of the album,” KELTEK explains. “I thought long and hard about what I wanted to do and created a mix of the classic hardstyle sound and today’s sound, with a storytelling vocal.” This title track reflects the album’s theme, blending classic hardstyle with a captivating storyline to embody music’s enchanting power.
Other highlights of the album include ‘Beautiful Day’, a euphoric track that captures the essence of summer festivals. KELTEK debuted the track during his Music Is Magic showcase, where it was met with a huge reaction. Another standout track is ‘To The Limit’, a high-energy collaboration with Act of Rage. This intense track is packed with powerful drops and drive, making it a fan-favorite during live sets. On ‘To The Limit’ KELTEK shares. “It was amazing to premiere it at Defqon.1 with Act of Rage, playing it live to a crowd of 30,000 people.”
Each track on the album brings something unique, like ‘Cage (Feed Them The Rage)’, a hard-hitting collaboration with Unresolved that combines KELTEK’s style with Unresolved’s intense energy. The 200 BPM track ‘Final Call’ takes KELTEK into Frenchcore for the first time, adding a fast-paced, even higher-energy twist to the album. Created with the rising Dutch artist D’ort, this track closes the album with a powerful finish that showcases the full range and excitement of Music Is Magic.
With ‘Music Is Magic’, KELTEK invites fans on a hard dance journey, proving that music truly has the power to connect, inspire, and transform!
