HI-LO x Reinier Zonneveld – Saw Of Olympus [Filth On Acid]

Filth on Acid label head Reinier Zonneveld and hero of the underground has linked up with mainstay DJ/producer Oliver Heldens, more specifically his legendary underground alias HI-LO to explore a darker techno sound. The first fruit of their multiple studio sessions in Amsterdam is the new single ‘Saw of Olympus’.

The story goes that Oliver reached out to Reinier via Instagram sharing some of the HI-LO projects he was working on and after listening to the tracks Reinier asked to meet up in the studio. On that first marathon night they started multiple collaborative tracks, followed by more studio sessions and now have a wealth of material ready to release on Filth on Acid. Next to these collabs, there will be more such joint projects as Reinier has worked with Speedy J and Dyen, while HI-LO has linked with T78, Will Clarke and Kai Tracid.

‘Saw of Olympus’ is a superbly powerful tune with acid turning right through its centre. The drums that march along are huge, rock solid affairs, while more synth details and FX flesh things out to make this a truly robust bit of dance floor dynamite.

Oliver’s HI-LO alias is reserved for his deepest and darkest records, which have taken the techno scene by storm in recent months. After more than 25 releases under both highly-renowned monikers in 2020, Oliver was crowned the highest and best selling artist on Beatport in 2020, the most supported artist on 1001tracklists, landed in the DJ Mag Top 10 for the third year in a row, whilst remaining in the Top 450 most-streamed artists in the world on Spotify.

Techno giant Reinier Zonneveld is known for his unique live sets, highly respected for his marathon sets. His own imprint Filth On Acid is one of the best-selling and most supported labels in the electronic scene with releases of Carl Cox and many more, the label is claiming the number one spot on and off as the leading techno label on Beatport.
