AFROJACK, the GRAMMY-winning producer behind ‘Hey Mama’ and ‘Give Me Everything’, celebrates the 15th anniversary of his breakout single ‘Take Over Control’ featuring Eva Simons with a remix EP. Out now via WALL Recordings, the project titled ‘Take Over Control (The Remixes 2025)’ reimagines one of dance music’s most remarkable tracks through a new generation of producers.
A Track That Defined an Era
Released in 2010, ‘Take Over Control’ became a global hit that transferred from the dance music genre to mainstream music, followed by David Guetta‘s ‘Titanium‘. The track charted in ten countries and introduced AFROJACK as one of the leading names in the emerging EDM movement. With its then genre-defying production and iconic hook, it shaped the big-room sound that dominated festivals throughout the 2010s. Even today, it continues to echo across main stages, uniting fans who still nostalgically chant every lyric.
New Energy for a New Generation
For this career-moving release, AFROJACK handpicked six producers to reimagine the track for today’s dancefloor. Maddix brings a driving techno version that he debuted at Tomorrowland Brasil. Matt Sassari adds dark, rolling house energy, while Kasango blends tribal percussion with signature rhythm. HILLS transforms the song into a bass house powerhouse, Antoine Delvig offers a melodic progressive take, and BYNX closes the project with a sleek, modern production. Altogether, each remix celebrates the song’s timeless hook while expanding its impact across genres and scenes.
What has AFROJACK been up to?
The anniversary EP arrives during one of AFROJACK’s busiest years yet. In 2025, he performed ‘Titanium’ live for the first time with David Guetta and Sia at Ultra Miami, a viral moment that captivated millions. He also collaborated with Martin Garrix and David Guetta on ‘Our Time’, which surpassed 20 million streams within weeks. Between major festival sets at Tomorrowland, Parookaville, and Ushuaïa Ibiza, he continues to push dance music forward while growing his WALL Recordings label and mentoring new artists.
With ‘Take Over Control (The Remixes 2025)’, AFROJACK brings ‘Take Over Control’ back to 2025 dance floors in full force. The EP bridges eras of dance music, combining nostalgia with modern production. Fifteen years later, ‘Take Over Control’ remains a dance staple that continues to inspire producers and fans around the world.
