Kölsch Crafts Poignant Piano-Led Rework of MORTEN and ARTBAT’s Anthemic Single “Hollow” ft. Bonn on Insomniac Records

Kölsch, the master of melodic techno, is delivering a fresh and heartfelt remix of  “Hollow, featuring Bonn, the dancefloor weapon from titanic artists MORTEN and ARTBAT, coming out on the tastemaking dance music label, Insomniac Records.

Where MORTEN and ARTBAT’s original was anthemic, focusing on intense, epic synthesizers, Kölsch supports the powerful lyrical messages with beautiful, resonant piano chords, demonstrating the wide range of emotions found within Bonn’s soul-stirring songwriting. As the track progresses forward, new melodies arise as if the sung words are transforming into swirling, shimmering sonics, perfect for those moments when the sun is rising and the music is still going.

The original has amassed well over 5 millions streams to date, and garnered press coverage from DJ Mag Latinoamerica, DJ Mag France, EDM.com, We Rave You, CULTR, We Rave You, EDM Tunes. It also found its way into a host of tastemaker radio shows fronted by Armin van Buuren, Yotto, Korolova, Above & Beyond, and Tiësto, to name a few. 

Kölsch has a longstanding history with both MORTEN and ARTBAT. Last year, the roles were reversed when ARTBAT remixed Kölsch’s deep, seething vocal track, “All That Matters” into a massive techno symphony complete with huge synthetic flourishes. In the case of MORTEN, he and Kölsch have been friends for well over 20 years. It’s only natural Kölsch was able to apply his creative vision to the work of these two celebrated artists in a way that reflects his unique musical identity while honoring the source material. Plus, both MORTEN and ARTBAT are thrilled with the result.

This latest remix caps off a banner year for Kölsch. After heading into 2024 on the heels of ‘I Talk To Water,’ his fifth album on his renowned home label of Kompakt, the Dutch-based artist of half-German and half-Irish descent released “Heartless,” a sweeping single with the live/electronic outfit WhoMadeWho, while also remixing exciting artists such as the Brazilian house maestro, Vintage Culture. These two new offerings add to his impressive catalog that includes entries on premier record labels such as Drumcode, Afterlife, and Crosstown Rebels.

Danish powerhouse Kölsch breathes new life into MORTEN and ARTBAT’s riveting collab “Hollow,” serving as a testament to the sheer brilliance of one of house and techno’s most prolific names.
