First Hardwell Interview in Two Years on Revealed Podcast
In 2018, modern EDM legend Hardwell (real name Robbert van de Corput) announced his official retirement from live touring. Since then, he's been relatively quiet in the public eye. But now, van de Corput has sat down with his long time friend Domeno on the Revealed Podcast to speak out about what he's been up to as of late.
The hourlong interview covers a lot of ground. van de Corput speaks on everything from his early days coming up in the Dutch electronic dance music scene, to recent successes with his Revealed Recordings imprint.
Hardwell diehards are mostly wondering what the superstar DJ and producer has been up to during his break from world tours, however. His answer is simple: living his life. Taking the time to enjoy his family, hang out with friends, and have what some would call a "normal life," van de Corput says that his break was a much needed mental reset that's given him an opportunity to rediscover himself both musically and as a human being.
