Dimitri Vegas, Bountyhunter & BRANDON – ‘Woops’
Label: Smash The House
Release date: 25th September 2026
Listen now: Spotify

One of the year’s most unavoidable dancefloor IDs has finally received its official release. Dimitri Vegas, Bountyhunter and BRANDON unite for ‘Woops’, a rave-charged, bass-heavy record that has already made a serious impact at clubs, festivals and online before reaching streaming platforms.

Out now via Smash The House, ‘Woops’ is the payoff to months of anticipation. The track has been turning heads throughout the 2026 festival season, becoming a staple in sets from artists across techno, house, hard dance and mainstage EDM. Its reach has been so substantial that it emerged as the number-one most-played track at both Ultra and Tomorrowland this year.

Built around an instantly memorable vocal — “Bring That Bass Back” — ‘Woops’ wastes no time getting to its point. The production carries the rough-and-ready force of classic rave, sharpened with contemporary low-end, driving percussion and a festival-ready arrangement. It is a record that thrives on contrast: nostalgic in its references, but thoroughly engineered for today’s high-impact dancefloors.

A major part of that identity comes from Bountyhunter, whose connection to Belgium’s 1990s hardcore and rave movement brings genuine heritage to the release. ‘Woops’ traces back to that legacy, while Dimitri Vegas and BRANDON reshape the concept for a new generation of listeners.

Dimitri Vegas has spent much of 2026 leaning further into faster and harder sounds, and ‘Woops’ continues that trajectory. Following the success of ‘Turn The Tide’ and ‘Makina Time’, the collaboration offers another example of his ability to bring intense club energy into a global festival setting. BRANDON completes the equation with a groove-led, bass-forward house influence, helping the track move naturally between different electronic music spaces.

The list of DJs backing ‘Woops’ speaks for itself. Anyma, Solomun, Charlotte de Witte, Amelie Lens, Dom Dolla, Chris Lake, Eli Brown, Cloonee, Cassian, Vintage Culture, Odd Mob, CamelPhat, Miss Monique, Kevin de Vries, Lilly Palmer, Nico Morenoand Novah are among the underground and club-facing names to support it. On the larger festival circuit, it has also landed in the hands of Swedish House Mafia, Tiësto, Armin van Buuren, The Chainsmokers, Diplo, Afrojack and Oliver Heldens.

That rare crossover has helped ‘Woops’ become a phenomenon outside of sets as well. The sound has already fuelled billions of views, hundreds of thousands of TikTok creations, tens of millions of YouTube views, over 500,000 Shazams and more than 100 million streams. It has also remained a regular entry in Beatport’s Hard Dance Top 100, consistently finding its way back toward the Top 10.

Now officially available, ‘Woops’ gives listeners the full version of a record that has been soundtracking the season from underground rooms to massive festival crowds. Whether experienced through a heavyweight techno set, a hard-dance rave or a mainstage spectacle, its appeal is clear: direct, loud, nostalgic and impossible to ignore.

Dimitri Vegas, Bountyhunter & BRANDON’s ‘Woops’ is out now on Smash The House.
