It is with both sadness and respect that we announce that Hardwell will take a break from his tour life and will stop doing live shows in the near future.
In fact, the 30 year old Dutch DJ and producer Robbert van de Corput aka Hardwell, has just announced that he will take a ‘’step back’’ – we actually see this as a step forward on his career and personal life – and will stay away from the decks for a while. He did not assure a come back, but he will still keep producing and bringing us the best he can do when he is his spaceship studio with nothing but his genius mind.
This was probably one of the hardest decisions in Hardwell’s life and if he doesn’t actually come back to the big stages, he will always be remembered as one of the most important artists for the growth of electronic dance music all around the world. From sold out venues to charity events, Robbert is one of the DJs that has had a major impact in people’s hearts.
Hopefully he will take this time to be with his loved ones, to rest his mind and most importantly, to find the strength to come back stronger and better.
You can read all the reasons behind this retirement on his latest Instagram post:
Hardwell will still play at ADE this year, so if you want to see him one last time, you must attend one of the biggest electronic dance music events on the planet.
