Showtek
View on Wikipediafrom Wikipedia
Showtek is a Dutch electronic dance music duo consisting of two brothers from Eindhoven, Wouter Janssen (Dutch: [ˈʋʌutər ˈjɑnsə(n)]; born 20 August 1982).[2] and Sjoerd Janssen (Dutch: [ɕuːr ˈtɕɑnsə(n)];[a] born 6 April 1984). The duo regularly manages to reach the top of multiple music charts and work with artists such as Tiësto, Chris Brown and David Guetta.[1] Showtek was ranked 17th in the Top 100 DJs list of 2014 but by the magazine's 2016 list, they had dropped to 96th. The brothers, who have been musically active since 2001, also offer podcasts on their own radio show on the music streaming service iTunes.
Key Information
Biography
[edit]The brothers Wouter and Sjoerd Janssen began their musical career in electronic music, specifically in techno music in 2001[3][4] and subsequently moved to hardstyle in 2003.[1][3] At that time, Wouter usually produced hard trance under the stage name of Walt, and Sjoerd hardstyle as Duro.[5] They released their first album, Today Is Tomorrow in 2007 under their independent label Dutch Master Works. The album was well received in the Dutch music charts, reaching 68th place,[6] and received a score of 95/100 on Partyflock.[7] In 2009, their second album, Analogue Players in a Digital World, was unveiled at the Amsterdam Dance Event in the Netherlands and circulated by the Central Station Records.[1] The album was well received by the press,[8][9] which also allows them access to rewards.[3][10] The duo uses multiple aliases including but not limited to; Dutch Masters, Headliner, Lowrider, Unibass, DJ Duro, Walt, Walt Janssen, Mr. Puta, Boys Will Be Boys and Alan Misael.
In 2011, the group collaborated on the album Kiss from the Past by Allure, one of the musical projects of Dutch producer Tiësto.[11] In 2012, they collaborated with Tiësto again on the singles "Miami / Chasing Summers" included in the album Club Life: Volume Two Miami, and on a single titled "Hell Yeah!". In 2012, the Showtek brothers began a series of collaborations, a project called Crazy Collabs, with producers from some of the other genres in dance music.[12][13] Before the official announcement of their collaboration, they co-produced an EP with Tiësto and Angger Dimas entitled "We Rock" as Boys Will Be Boys. They have also worked with Tiësto, Hardwell, Justin Prime, Bassjackers, Ookay, MAKJ, and Noisecontrollers. Showtek also co-produced the upcoming single of Chris Brown entitled Nobody's Perfect with Lukas Hilbert and David Jost. Showtek has their own podcast, which is available through their website and iTunes.
In December 2013, the duo recently founded their own label "Skink", which is licensed to Spinnin Records but isn't a sub-label.[14] The song "We Like To Party" by Showtek was the first title to be released under the new label.
In 2014, they collaborate with Vassy and David Guetta for the single "Bad", which was listed for 239 weeks on 19 different music charts.[15]
In 2023, Showtek re-entered the hardstyle industry with their first public appearance on Qlimax: Enter The Void, 15 years after their last gig.[16] They also confirmed their upcoming hardstyle album, set to be released in 2024 to accompany their hardstyle-only set.[17] The album, titled "360 Blue", was released on 20 June 2024.

View on Grokipediafrom Grokipedia
Showtek is a Dutch electronic dance music duo consisting of brothers Wouter Janssen (born August 30, 1982) and Sjoerd Janssen (born April 6, 1984), based in Eindhoven and recognized as pioneers in the hardstyle genre with later expansions into big room house and mainstream EDM.[1] The duo, who perform under the Showtek moniker, first entered the music scene in 2001 producing techno tracks before shifting focus to hardstyle in 2003, quickly establishing themselves through high-energy productions and collaborations within the electronic dance community.[1][2]
Their early career gained momentum with hardstyle releases in the mid-2000s, including the 2007 album Today Is Tomorrow, which peaked at number 68 on the Dutch Top 40 and received critical acclaim in the scene.[1] In 2006, Showtek signed with Q-dance, the leading hardstyle record label, which amplified their reach. They released music via independent labels before launching Skink Records in 2013 under license from Spinnin' Records, allowing greater creative control over their output.[1]
Showtek's transition to broader EDM success occurred in 2013 with "Booyah," featuring We Are Loud and vocalist Sonny Wilson, which peaked at number 14 on the Dutch Top 40 and reached number 5 on the UK Singles Chart, marking their mainstream breakthrough.[2] This led to high-profile collaborations with artists such as Tiësto, David Guetta, Hardwell, Chris Brown, Vassy, and Moby, including the track "Bad" (with Vassy and Guetta) that charted for 239 weeks across 19 international lists.[1] Their music has appeared in major media like the FIFA soundtracks, while live performances at festivals including Tomorrowland, Ultra Music Festival, and Electric Daisy Carnival have solidified their global presence.[2] In the DJ Mag Top 100 DJs poll, they peaked at 17th place in 2014, reflecting their influence during the EDM boom.[1]
In 2023, Showtek returned to their hardstyle roots with a performance at Qlimax after a 15-year hiatus from the genre, releasing tracks like "Legends" (with Sub Zero Project and Doktor). As of 2025, they remain active, with releases such as "Slow Down Pt. 2" (with .EXA) in July 2025, alongside a busy touring schedule featuring appearances at events like Goldrush Fest, Dreambeach Villaricos, and Weekend Festival Finland.[2][3] Their enduring podcast series and ongoing productions continue to bridge hardstyle roots with contemporary electronic sounds, maintaining a dedicated fanbase worldwide.[1]
