Hardwell & W&W feat. Fatman Scoop – Don’t Stop The Madness [December 22 – Revealed Recordings]

by JP Hadley · December 17, 2014

With the massive success of “Jumper” serving as a tough task to follow, the Dutch super team of Hardwell and W&W has reunited in the studio to create the third single to be released off of the upcoming Hardwell album “United We Are”. The tune has been absolutely killing the scene as an instrumental track, and aims to tear up more dance floors with the vocal assistance of American rapper Fatman Scoop. The drop made its first appearance in a Hardwell mashup from Tomorrowland 2013, and made its debut as a vocal track at the 2014 edition of the festival. The track goes by “Don’t Stop The Madness” now, and is set for a December 22 release on Revealed Recordings.

“Don’t Stop The Madness” starts off with a familiar sound in the breakdown, as the melody synth from “Thunder” makes another appearance. The melody then takes prominence for a few seconds, before Fatman Scoop makes his presence known. The melody grows into a louder and more defined sound, with the original synth layered with many more. The first 3 notes of the melody are then looped together as the buildup begins, and this sound is soon joined by a combination of percussion and more vocals. The drop brings a clash of big-room and electro house, as a giant bass kick and a bleepy top-line that has since become signature in the productions of both Hardwell and W&W.
