The Ultra Main Stage witnessed something special as Afrojack unveiled his long-awaited collaboration with David Guetta and Sia, titled 'Awake Tonight,' during his headlining set at Ultra Music Festival 2026.
This powerhouse reunion comes exactly 15 years after the trio's legendary hit 'Titanium' dominated dance floors worldwide. But this wasn't some rushed studio session – 'Awake Tonight' represents nearly a decade of meticulous craftsmanship.
"We worked on the song for very long. I had [it] for about eight years, and we made 40 versions before we had a version that everyone was happy with," Afrojack revealed. "I'm very happy I got to do another song with Sia and David."
The Dutch superstar acknowledged the pressure of following up their iconic collaboration, noting that "the bar is high" when working with such established hitmakers. With Giorgio Tuinfort also contributing to the production, the track brings together proven architects of dance music's biggest moments.
The timing couldn't be more perfect. Last year's Ultra 25th anniversary saw Guetta and Sia join Afrojack on stage for a nostalgic 'Titanium' performance, reigniting fan excitement for new material from the trio.
For festival-goers and dance music devotees, 'Awake Tonight' represents more than just another collaboration – it's a carefully crafted follow-up to one of EDM's most enduring anthems. With eight years of development and 40 iterations behind it, this track promises to be worth the wait for anyone who's been craving that 'Titanium' magic again.
