The Rocketman Launches Outcast: A Year Long Release Campaign
Spanning 20 Tracks, Global Performances, And Major Collaborations

Dutch dance artist The Rocketman is entering his most ambitious chapter to date with the launch of OUTCAST, a year long album campaign that combines new music, international touring, high profile collaborations, and a creative vision centered on individuality and artistic freedom.

The Rocketman awakened on Earth during the pandemic and has since been bringing his signature shows and music to audiences worldwide, blending techno, rave, trance, bounce, and 90s inspired sounds into a style that has become distinctly his own.

Over the past several years, The Rocketman has established himself as one of the more
recognizable emerging names within the international dance scene. His performances have included some of the industry’s most respected stages, including Tomorrowland, A State of Trance, and Luminosity Festival, while his headline events continue to attract a dedicated following. Recent milestones include a sold out All Night Long at Toffler Rotterdam, a sold out Amsterdam Dance Event boat event, and the announcement of a new All Night Long show at Levenslang Amsterdam.

The momentum accelerated throughout 2025, when The Rocketman released thirteen records, including Una Hora Más, Loca, Papi, Phantasy, Rewind, You & Me, and his reworks of Carte Blanche, Strange World, and Never Alone. Collectively, the releases generated more than 50 million streams on Spotify, earned multiple #1 positions on Beatport, and received support from leading figures across the dance music world.

Among those supporting the project were artists including Armin van Buuren, Charlotte de Witte, Amelie Lens, Maddix, Hannah Laing, Deborah De Luca, Marlon Hoffstadt KI/KI, Patrick Mason, and many others. Several of those relationships would later evolve into collaborations, further expanding The Rocketman’s creative reach and industry presence.

New Music Takes the Spotlight in 2026

Following the success of 2025, The Rocketman has launched his most ambitious release campaign to date. Kicking off in April, new music is arriving every two weeks throughout the year, creating an ongoing rollout that will ultimately lead to a twenty-track album unlike any previous release in his catalog.

The campaign has already introduced fans to the opening chapter of the project through:

“Oh Lord” — The Rocketman & Nano
“Here We Go” — Showtek & The Rocketman
“Mirage” — The Rocketman & Edo

These releases highlight the project’s diverse sonic identity, fusing elements of rave, trance, techno, bounce, and modern dance music while staying firmly connected to club culture.

The campaign continues with:

“Make You Move” — The Rocketman & Afem Syko
“I Don’t Care” — The Rocketman & Airod

with additional singles scheduled for release every two weeks through December.

Complementing the ongoing release schedule, 2026 will also feature collaborations with Showtek, Maddix, Dimitri Vegas, Joyhauser, Hannah Laing, T78, Matty Ralph, Johannes Schüster, Afem Syko, Ruben de Ronde, Nifra, Bassjackers, Mr. Polska, Pawlowski, Jokesonyou, and more, marking the most collaboration-driven chapter of The Rocketman’s career so far.

OUTCAST

More than an album, OUTCAST is a year-long music campaign featuring twenty releases, seventeen previously unheard tracks, and collaborations that bring together multiple generations and styles of dance music.

The project represents The Rocketman’s ongoing dedication to creating without limitations. Unrestricted by any single genre, OUTCAST combines inspirations from ’90s rave culture, trance, bounce, techno, and contemporary dance music while uniting artists from diverse backgrounds, scenes, and musical influences.

From April through December, a new installment of the story is revealed every two weeks, with each release adding to the broader OUTCAST narrative and further extending the vision behind the project.

Beyond the music itself, OUTCAST will be accompanied by a comprehensive creative campaign incorporating visual storytelling, digital content, radio features, media coverage, billboard and poster promotions, club shows, festival performances, and special All Day Long and All Night Long events designed to bring the project to life across both digital and live environments.

One of the campaign’s defining moments arrives with The Rocketman’s All Day Long performance at Boomerang Scheveningen, offering fans a fully immersive experience centered around the music, atmosphere, and creative vision behind the project.

Throughout 2026, The Rocketman continues performing across Europe and Asia while also preparing for his anticipated debut U.S. tour later this year, introducing OUTCAST to new audiences and further broadening its international reach.

As OUTCAST continues to unfold over the coming months, The Rocketman builds upon an established catalog of releases, live performances, and creative collaborations. Through a consistent flow of new music and an unwavering dedication to creative authenticity, the project is moving into its boldest and most far-reaching chapter to date.
