KSHMR and 22Bullets Release Enchanting Club Record “Devotion” Sampling Nomad’s 1990’s Hit; Celebrate 10 Years of the KSHMR Project
Alright, party people, brace yourselves for some serious beats because KSHMR is back and better than ever! Fresh off celebrating a decade of rocking the decks as KSHMR, the LA-based legend has teamed up with Thai sensation 22Bullets to deliver an absolute banger titled “Devotion.”
Now, let me break it down for you. “Devotion” isn’t your average club track. Nope, it’s a whole vibe, blending hard-hitting basslines, funky synths, and KSHMR’s signature melodies into one mesmerizing masterpiece. And guess what? It’s all centered around a killer sample from Nomad’s ’90s classic “(I Wanna Give You) Devotion.”
Already causing a stir on KSHMR’s North American club tour and stealing the show at Ultra Music Festival Miami Main Stage, “Devotion” is the anthem you didn’t know you needed. Plus, this isn’t the first rodeo for KSHMR and 22Bullets – their previous collab “It Isn’t Me” was an absolute smash.
“I’ve been wanting to work with 22Bullets on a track for my sets for a long time; he’s one of my favorite up-and-coming producers that’s released on my label Dharma before. He’s also one of the few producers representing Thailand in the electronic scene. Flipping this sample was the perfect collaboration, I knew it would get big reactions live. It’s been a big hit throughout my sets on this club tour celebrating 10 years of KSHMR.” – KSHMR
“Working with Niles on this second collaboration is an honor. I had always wanted to do a club track with him and this one fits perfectly for our sounds. Working on this classic sample has been fun and I feel we made something exciting for the fans.” – 22Bullets
So, what are you waiting for? Grab your dancing shoes and catch “Devotion” live at a KSHMR show near you. Trust me, you won’t want to miss this one!
KSHMR
Niles Hollowell-Dhar is a globally acclaimed artist who originally began in hip-hop and moved into pop music with the 2010 global smash “Like A G6.” From there, he transitioned into dance music, producing tracks like the 2013 hit “Tsunami.” Next, he launched his own artist project, KSHMR, and took the scene by storm with 10 Beatport #1, such as “Wildcard” and KSHMR’s most streamed hit to date – “Secrets”‘ with Tiësto.
After releasing his debut album “Harmonica Andromeda,” he firmly cemented his reputation as one of the most dynamic and diverse acts in global electronic music, gaining DJ Mag’s prestigious “Best Live Act” award. As a pioneer and music enthusiast who values creative freedom, he created his Dharma Worldwide label in 2017 and, subsequently, Dharma Studio in 2020, where producers can find his tutorials and sound packs.
His sound pack series “Sounds of KSHMR” is among the most used in modern music, and his latest release, “Sounds of KSHMR” Vol. 4’ debuted as the #1 pack on Splice and has remained in the Top 10 since. In 2023 we saw KSHMR release his eagerly anticipated collaboration with MC Stan “Haath Varthi,” taken from his album “KARAM,” which dropped in November 2023 and featured the biggest artists in Indian hip-hop.
22Bullets
The Thai producer and DJ 22Bullets burst onto the scene with the hit “Everybody In The Party” in 2020. Since then, his career has soared, and with his ranking as no. 76 on DJ Mag Top 100 in 2024 (no. 83 in 2023), 22Bullets growth continues and he has cemented his position as one of the world’s most current and successful DJs. Today, 22Bullets doesn’t just listen to his idols – he has become one.
In fact, he is the first Southeast Asian DJ to ever appear on DJ Mag’s Top 100 list of the most high-profile DJs in the world. An achievement that emphasizes why some of the biggest stars – from David Guetta and Bebe Rexha to Fedde Le Grand and KSHMR – have collaborated with the Thai DJ. And with more than 100M streams across all digital music platforms, stage performances with the likes of Afrojack, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, and deadmau5, and at venues like World Club Dome in Germany and as the headliner at festivals like Ultra Music Festival and Creamfields, 22Bullets is ready to take the next steps in expanding his career outside of Asia.
22Bullets’ music always has an emotional touch – something that reveals his personality and gives listeners a dynamic and moving experience. The 22Bullets universe focuses heavily on melodies, which are meant to take the audience on a unique journey – from the first to the last song in his set. Therefore, one experiences much more than just the typical bangers when 22Bullets takes the stage.
With megahits like “Bang Bang” and “Mr. BigBoom,” he demonstrates his musical intelligence and unique approach to club music, and with high tempo and dynamics, they fulfill 22Bullets’ mission to make music that is as non-static as possible. As a global priority with the record company Spinnin’ Records, 22Bullets has established himself as Southeast Asia’s most recognized and biggest DJ.
