2x-Grammy-nominated, multi-platinum artist, producer, and DJ Steve Aoki has collaborated with Dutch powerhouse Quintino to release their second joint single “Motor.” Arriving just in time for the summer, the festival anthem is an infectious mix of Aoki’s signature electro sound and Quintino’s hard-hitting big room beats.
“Motor” is the highly-anticipated follow-up to Aoki and Quintino’s main stage staple “Mayhem,” which appeared on Aoki’s 5OKI EP. Initially premiered by Billboard, the track became a fan favorite amongst fans and DJs, receiving spins from the likes of David Guetta and Afrojack. To date, “Mayhem” has accumulated over 75 million streams.
Most recently, Aoki and Quintino have joined forces to remix one another’s work. Last year Quintino remixed Aoki’s HiROQUEST: GENESIS dance anthem “Save Me (ft. Harvey).” In February 2023, Aoki’s supergroup trio 3 Are Legend (Steve Aoki, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike) provided an explosive remix of Quintino’s hard-hitting tune “Name Of Your DJ (ft. MC Ambush).”
This summer both artists are scheduled to hit the European festival and club circuit. Fans can catch both Aoki and Quintino performing individual sets at Tomorrowland, Airbeat One, Amnesia Ibiza, and many other stops.
