Biografie
After a chance meeting at Trance Energy, Ward van der Harst and Willem van Hanegem came together in 2007 to form W&W and haven't looked back since. The past six years have seen this production and DJ super-duo transcend the boundaries of genre and traverse the globe with their music and performances.
Fusing styles and mixing influences W&W combine the uplifting and melodic elements of trance with the raw intensity of electro and progressiveness of house to create a sound uniquely their own. Infectious, rebellious and highly energetic, their list of productions is championed by the likes of Armin van Buuren, Tiësto, Hardwell, Ferry Corsten and more for its breadth, diversity and massive appeal to multiple audiences.
From their earlier works like the the deep 'Arena', to the acid-rubbed 'AK-47', synth-driven 'Alpha' and floor pounding 'Shotgun'; to more recent projects like 'Invasion', voted as the official anthem to the "A State of Trance 550" world tour, 'Lift Off', the embodiment of their multidimensional sound, 'D# Fat', their highly acclaimed collaboration with Armin van Buuren, 'The Code' with Ummet Ozcan, which became one of the most played tracks of Miami Music Week 2013, and their most recent remix of Armin van Buuren's 'This Is What It Feels Like' feat. Trevor Guthrie, it's clear each of the tunes leaving the W&W studios is a sure-shot of dance floor thrill.
As DJs they are also dominating dance floors and festivals the world over. Recently returning from a hugely successful Miami Music Week/Ultra 2013 and the A State Of Trance 600: "The Expedition" World Tour, W&W performed at a sold out Madison Square Garden for the A State Of Trance 600 final show followed by their own sold out headlining performance at Best Buy Theater. Showing no signs of slowing down W&W is slated to play the biggest festivals this summer including EDC and Electric Zoo, among many others.
If that wasn't enough, W&W continues to prove their status as innovators and tastemakers in the scene by also curating releases for their Mainstage Music label, an imprint of Armada Music, and their popular weekly Mainstage Music podcast.

W&W conclude sold-out rave culture Thailand show with new single and music video Sequel Gold
21 december 2020
A mere six days after rousing a crowd of ten thousand fans through the sold-out Rave Culture Thailand event they spent fifteen days in quarantine for, W&W keep building momentum in signature fashion. With 'Gold', the world-renowned Dutchmen not only deliver the follow-up to 'Rave Love', but also launch the hotly anticipated music video sequel, teasing all kinds of special – and upcoming – Rave Culture developments in the process.
De karakteristieke sound van W&W is al jarenlang een fundament binnen de dancemuziek, maar dat betekent niet dat er geen ruimte is om af en toe een andere weg in te slaan. En dat is precies wat het Nederlandse duo heeft gedaan met hun nieuwe single, 'Coming To Getcha'.
Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, het welbekende Belgische DJ/producer-duo, hebben onlangs alle zeilen bijgezet om hun fans met nieuw materiaal en door de lockdowncrisis te slepen. Eerder releaste het duo al 'Raver Dome' met Steve Aoki onder hun 3 Are Legends-alias (met Justin Prime en Sandro Silva) en gaven ze hun volgers een flinke dosis Tomorrowland-magie middels hun 'Garden Of Madness'-megamix, en nu komt daar een nieuwe klapper bij: 'Clap Your Hands', een samenwerking met Smash The House-stamgasten W&W en hitmachine Fedde Le Grand.
Twee grote dj-duo's uit Nederland hebben de handen ineengeslagen. Lucas & Steve en W&W releasen vandaag de track 'Do It For You'. Deze plaat is precies van wat we van dit dreamteam kunnen verwachten. Een heerlijke festival klapper, waarin een mix van de verschillende stijlen van de duo's in terug te horen is.
Het dj duo W&W neemt het team van 'Bij Igmar' (SLAM!) mee op tour in een privéjet voor drie shows in het weekend van 10 tot 12 juli. Nadat Igmar en Rens, de presentatoren van 'Bij Igmar', uitgenodigd waren om een weekend lang met hen op tournee te gaan, verrasten zij het Nederlandse duo live in de uitzending met een gouden plaat voor hun hitsingle 'Bigfoot'.
