STÜM Sets the Global Stage Alight with High-Octane New Single ‘The Look’
The global electronic music scene is currently witnessing the meteoric rise of STÜM, the Melbourne and London-based producer who has become synonymous with “chaotic and sweet” sonic energy. Following a whirlwind year of sold-out tours and record-breaking sets, STÜM returns with his latest single, ‘The Look’—a masterclass in euphoric trance-techno fusion that cements his status as a leading voice in modern dance music.
The Evolution of the STÜM Sound
For those following the underground’s transition into the mainstream, STÜM (the visionary behind Happy Wax Records) is a name that commands respect. His signature style is a high-speed collision of:
-
Euphoric Trance: Shimmering pads and nostalgic melodies.
-
Punchy Techno: Driving basslines designed for the world’s most demanding sound systems.
-
Emotional Storytelling: Music that doesn’t just move the feet, but captures the “immersive” feeling of a 4:00 AM dancefloor epiphany.
‘The Look’ continues this trajectory, offering a pop-leaning accessibility without sacrificing the raw, industrial edge that earned him a slot on HÖR Berlin and Boiler Room.
From 40,000 People at BTV to Global Charts
It’s hard to discuss STÜM without mentioning his legendary Beyond The Valley 2023 closing set. Ringing in the New Year for over 40,000 fans, STÜM proved he can command the massive scale of a festival stage with the same intimacy as a London basement like the Pickle Factory.
His 2024 Solar Safari Tour served as a turning point, with tickets for his 5,000-capacity Melbourne shows evaporating in under five minutes. This demand isn’t just hype; it’s a testament to the community STÜM has built through his multifaceted brand, which includes his STUM Productions streetwear line.
Key Highlights of ‘The Look’
| Feature | Why It Matters |
| Genre-Bending | Blurs the lines between hard dance, trance, and electronic pop. |
| Production Quality | Polished, heavy-hitting percussion balanced by soaring synth leads. |
| Club Readiness | Already a staple in his high-energy sets at Terminal V and Drumsheds. |
A Creative Polymath: Happy Wax & Beyond
STÜM’s influence extends far beyond the DJ booth. As the founder of Happy Wax Records, he is actively shaping the future of electronic music by championing forward-thinking artists. His collaboration with industry giants like Untitled Group and representation by Sweat Lodge Agency (Europe) and Proxy (Australia) ensures that his creative vision—a blend of sonic and visual identity—reaches every corner of the globe.
Where to Hear STÜM Next
If you missed the Solar Safari tour, you can catch STÜM’s high-velocity energy at major upcoming stops across Europe and Australia. With ‘The Look’ currently dominating streaming playlists, expect this track to be the anthem of the 2025 festival season.
“STÜM isn’t just making tracks; he’s building a world where fashion, vinyl culture, and 150 BPM techno coexist perfectly.”
