This month the Danish production guru calls on Jamaican dancehall monarch Mr. Vegas to provide vocals for the reggae-tinged 128 BPM heater “Love.” The single is the latest in a stellar 2016 catalog that proves MORTEN isn’t slowing down any time soon.
MORTEN kicked off the year with “Beautiful Heartbeat,” a track released onPRMD, featuring official remixes from Deorro, RAC, and label head Avicii. After two standout records on Monstercat and Armada, respectively, he embarked on a Dim Mak takeover that saw him drop three mammoth electro house tunes during a momentous summer for the label.

This was followed up with a remix ofGarmiani’s festival anthem “Bomb A Drop,” world premiered on R3HAB’s “I Need R3HAB” radio show.
