KSHMR and Tiesto Finally Release ‘Harder’ And It Is Near Perfect, Listen Here
To say that this track has been a long time coming is an understatement. Ever since its debut at Ultra Miami fans have been hungry to be able to hear the full version of ‘Harder’. The track is not what you would expect from the two artists, it is filled with summer house, borderline tropical vibes.
Harder Is Finally Here
Tiesto and KSHMR have combined forces to create an absolutely stellar track. At this point absolutely anything KSHMR touches turns to gold (or platinum). ‘Harder’ is filled with KSHMR’s signature Indian based melodies with an infectious hook composed entirely of pitched and chopped vocals. Tiesto has been making a come back recently. The OG of trance fell off a little bit in recent years, but in 2017 he is back with a vengeance.
This song will rule the summer. Festivals, clubs, radios…you name it, it will be everywhere. Check it out below, because it does not get much better than this.
A Few Details On How Harder Came Together
‘Harder’ officially dropped through Tiesto’s own Musical Freedom imprint, the label he’s used for years to put out his club-focused, dancefloor-ready material. The track also features vocals from Talay Riley, whose pitched and chopped vocal hook ended up becoming one of the most recognizable parts of the song. Before it ever got an official release, ‘Harder’ had already been floating around as an unreleased ID, first previewed to festival crowds at Ultra Miami, which is exactly the kind of slow-burn rollout that tends to build serious hype for a track before it drops.
The pairing made a lot of sense on paper too. KSHMR had already built a reputation for blending his Indian musical influences into big room and progressive house records, and Tiesto was in the middle of a genuine career resurgence, leaning back into festival mainstage sounds after spending a stretch of years exploring more radio-friendly pop and electro. Put those two artists together on a summer-ready, tropical house-adjacent record, and it’s easy to see why fans had been asking for this one for months before it finally showed up.
