Grammy-nominated artist and producer Steve Aoki has joined forces with Swedish producer KAAZE for their first collaborative EP, Head Rush.
The project brings the longtime friends back into the studio.
It follows a series of recent collaborations, including Won’t Forget This Time and Whole Again featuring John Martin from Aoki’s HiROQUEST albums.
Earlier, KAAZE also delivered a remix of Aoki’s Kyro from HiROQUEST 2: Double Helix.
On Head Rush, the duo blends Aoki’s explosive electro style with KAAZE’s signature Hōt Teknō sound.
As a result, the EP delivers a collection of high-impact tracks designed for big festival stages.
The title track, Head Rush, features techno vocalist Sarah De Warren.
It combines powerful big-room energy with emotional, vocal-driven elements.
Meanwhile, Give It To Me and Self Control complete the EP with equally energetic and festival-ready productions.
Earlier this month, KAAZE joined Aoki on stage at Hypersonic Festival in Sydney and Melbourne.
During these shows, they premiered Head Rush and Give It To Me in front of thousands of fans.
