Oliver Heldens

A true superstar with No. 1 radio hits and over 5 billion streams, Oliver Heldens remains one of the most influential and innovative artists in electronic music today. With a strong focus on quality and a reputation for pushing boundaries, he has created a unique space across genres, blending high-energy house with melodic and peak-time techno under his own name and his darker alias, HI-LO.

Since bursting onto the scene with his 2013 breakout track “Gecko”—championed by Tiësto and later turned into a UK chart-topping, triple-platinum hit with Becky Hill—Heldens has consistently released genre-defying music and collaborated on boundary-pushing projects. His studio work includes teaming up for collabs with icons like Nile Rodgers, Kylie Minogue, Tiësto, David Guetta, and Armin van Buuren, while also remixing artists such as Dua Lipa, Calvin Harris, Coldplay, Depeche Mode, Jamiroquai, and Justin Timberlake.

As a tastemaker, Heldens continues to lead with his family of labels—Heldeep Records, OH2, and HILOMATIK—supporting a diverse range of emerging and established talent across house and techno. The imprints have featured releases from artists such as ALOK, Chocolate Puma, Eli Brown, Green Velvet, James Hype, and ZHU, and have hosted global label nights with special guests including Chris Lake, Dom Dolla, Enrico Sanguiliano, Idris Elba, Mau P, and Purple Disco Machine.

Heldens’ techno alias HI-LO has further solidified its position as a leading force, with numerous critically acclaimed offerings on Drumcode and Filth on Acid, including seven standout collaborations with Reinier Zonneveld. HI-LO’s catalog continues to attract support from top techno figures like Carl Cox, Solomun, Charlotte de Witte, Adam Beyer, and Amelie Lens. As the music expands, so does the audience—Heldens continues to perform annually to more than 2 million fans. Highlights for 2025 include headlining sets at The Indianapolis 500, F1 Dutch Grand Prix, Ultra Music Festival Miami, Tomorrowland, Creamfields, ÎLESONIQ, Airbeat One, London’s iconic O2 Academy in Brixton and many more!

Beyond the stage and studio, Heldens' influence reaches the airwaves through his long-running Heldeep Radio show, now with over 625 episodes syndicated on 180 radio stations across 55 countries, reaching more than 80 million listeners each month.

With relentless creativity and a steadfast commitment to quality, Oliver Heldens continues to thrive in 2026 as both a global hitmaker and a respected figure in the underground scene. Whether leading festival mainstages or delivering peak-time techno as HI-LO, he remains a defining presence in electronic music—bold, innovative, and always ahead of the curve.
