Pioneering a bold new chapter in the ever-evolving world of electronic music, electronic music heavyweight Don Diablo unleashes "The Formula," the latest drum & bass anthem from his darker alter-ego, CONTROL ALT DΞLΞTΞ, which he launched with the single "Keep Pushin' (Beast)" with P Money back in November 2024. Teaming up with Dutch dynamos of the genre T & Sugah and UK rapper-singer-producer Kris Kiss, known for his explosive collaborations with Steve Aoki and Hardwell, "The Formula" is engineered to shake up the dance floors worldwide, no matter the size of the crowd. Clocking in with a hyperspeed BPM and armed with serrated synths, pounding basslines, and razor-sharp vocal hooks, CONTROL ALT DΞLΞTΞ's new production brings a high-energy fusion of gritty rave aesthetics and infectious hip-hop flair. Kris Kiss's adrenaline-fueled topline - written and recorded in just 15 minutes - adds a raw, magnetic pulse that elevates this already blistering cut into true festival-weapon territory. With the genre-bending creative genius of Don Diablo, who turns into gold everything he touches, this release is a strong follow-up to the project's launch earlier this year and subsequent releases. Read on for quotes from the artists on this hot new release:
"Hyped to finally share the ultimate secret weapon from my sets with the rest of the world! This one is for all the dance floors across the globe." - Don Diablo / CONTROL ALT DΞLΞTΞ
"Collaborating with CONTROL ALT DΞLΞTΞ was an absolute thrill for us. Don has been a huge inspiration to us, especially during our early days, and his longtime support for our tracks in his sets has meant the world to us. He was one of the very few EDM DJs regularly dropping D&B tunes, even before the big hype we're seeing now. Working together to combine our styles on this release was a true pleasure and an unforgettable creative experience." - T & Sugah
"I was in the studio in Switzerland and Don hit me up for a DnB vocal... I had been playing around with a few DnB things for a while so I snapped straight into it and recorded it in about 15 minutes. The concept is about the feeling you get when you find your formula for something and everything just flows the way you want it to. Like the perfect rave." - Kris Kiss

Currently voted the world's #15 DJ on the prestigious DJ MAG Top 100, Don Diablo has long been a trailblazer in electronic music, known for pushing genre boundaries with hits like "On My Mind" and "Cutting Shapes." The sought-after Dutch producer has collaborated with and remixed an eclectic roster of global superstars including Dua Lipa, Justin Bieber, Gucci Mane, Ed Sheeran, Mark Ronson, Travis Barker, Miley Cyrus, Rihanna, Madonna, The Chainsmokers, Coldplay and many more. A true visionary, Don's creative output spans far beyond music - his hybrid physical-digital fine art pieces have broken records on SuperRare, been auctioned by Sotheby's, and exhibited at the Venice Biennale, Art Basel, and beyond. In fashion, he helms HEXAGON's streetwear line, releasing capsule collections with the likes of Disney, Lucasfilm, and Netflix. A consummate presenter, Don has hosted his globally syndicated Hexagon Radio show for over eight years, currently broadcast in over 68 countries.

Ever the innovator, Don is also one of the world's top-selling crypto artists, making history with the release of his GΞNΞSIS NFT and the groundbreaking digital concert film NFT DΞSTINATION HΞXAGONIA. As CONTROL ALT DΞLΞTΞ, Don is all about creating something sharp, modern, and unapologetically different from his four to the floor output, a new lane, not a new mask. The name is no accident, either. Like the keyboard command, it's a reset and a creative override.
