Legacy Recharged
AFROJACK celebrates 15 years of Take Over Control with a six-track remix EP, underscoring AFROJACK Take Over Control as a cornerstone of big-room history. The 2010 smash featuring Eva Simons charted in 10 countries and helped EDM breach the mainstream. Its synth-stab hook and commanding vocals still ignite festival fields and club floors, a testament to its enduring architecture.
AFROJACK Take Over Control
The 2025 remixes offer a survey of today’s peak-time palette without diluting the original’s identity. Maddix brings ironclad techno pressure, echoing his momentum at Tomorrowland Brazil, pushing the track toward warehouse intensity. Matt Sassari leans into rolling house, tightening the groove and reducing the excess for streamlined impact. Kasango injects rhythmic fluidity, letting percussion breathe between vocal commands for continental swing.
Festival DNA
HILLS drives a bass house engine that grits the low end while keeping the topline bright. Antoine Delvig, paired with NLW, widens the melodic progression, recalling the euphoric rise that once defined mainstage sets. BYNX completes the package with a house rework that respects the hook while refreshing the drum language for 2025. Together, these versions trace EDM’s evolution from maximalist peaks to precision-engineered energy.
Artist Momentum
The EP lands after a high-velocity year for AFROJACK. He performed Titanium live with David Guetta and Sia at Ultra’s 25th anniversary, closing a loop between pop ubiquity and festival spectacle. He headlined Heineken House at Coachella on both weekends, reinforcing cross-format reach. Our Time with Martin Garrix and Guetta has topped 20 million streams, validating his collaborative instinct. In My World with Aloe Blacc marked a soulful turn earlier this month, while tour dates at Tomorrowland, Parookaville, Ushuaïa, and Cavo Paradiso kept the runway hot.
Remixes And Relevance
This EP argues for canon maintenance through reinvention. AFROJACK Take Over Control remains a DJ staple because its components are modular, inviting reinterpretation without collapse. The new mixes align with current club tempos and textures, from techno churn to bass-forward punch, meeting modern floors where they are. For listeners, it is a guided time capsule; for DJs, a refreshed utility belt.
Final Word
Fifteen years on, AFROJACK Take Over Control returns not as nostalgia bait, but as a live wire for 2025 sets. With six distinct remixes, the track reclaims its place in rotation while mapping where festival music might go next. The remix package is now available on all platforms, and for those who need a reminder of the original, here it is…
