Global electronic music pioneer Don Diablo continues expanding his sonic universe with the latest release from his darker alter-ego CONTROL ALT DΞLΞTΞ — a high-octane drum & bass cut titled “The Formula.” A bold collaboration with Dutch D&B duo T & Sugah and UK powerhouse Kris Kiss, this track follows the project’s explosive debut single “Keep Pushin’ (Beast)” featuring P Money, released in November 2024.
Built for the peak of the rave, “The Formula” delivers adrenaline at every turn. It’s packed with thunderous basslines, edgy rave synths, and an instantly infectious topline from Kris Kiss — reportedly written and recorded in just 15 minutes. The result is a high-speed fusion of D&B grit and hip-hop swagger, engineered to dominate dance floors of any size.
CONTROL ALT DΞLΞTΞ is Don Diablo’s creative reset — a deliberate shift into unfiltered, future-forward sounds. “The Formula” marks a strong continuation of this vision, channeling raw energy into something fresh, sharp, and unafraid to break boundaries.
Artist Reactions to “The Formula”
Don Diablo / CONTROL ALT DΞLΞTΞ
“Hyped to finally share the ultimate secret weapon from my sets with the rest of the world! This one is for all the dance floors across the globe.”
T & Sugah
“Collaborating with CONTROL ALT DΞLΞTΞ was an absolute thrill. Don has been a huge inspiration to us since our early days. He was one of the few EDM artists championing drum & bass before the genre’s mainstream resurgence. Creating this track together was both a creative and personal milestone.”
Kris Kiss
“I was in a studio in Switzerland when Don reached out for a DnB vocal. I’d been experimenting with a few ideas, so I jumped straight in and recorded it in 15 minutes. The lyrics are about that magic moment when you’ve found your formula — and everything flows. Like the perfect rave.”
About Don Diablo / CONTROL ALT DΞLΞTΞ
Currently ranked #15 on DJ Mag’s Top 100, Don Diablo has cemented his place as one of the most forward-thinking artists in electronic music. Known for genre-defining hits like “Cutting Shapes” and “On My Mind,” his work blurs the lines between house, future bass, and now, drum & bass under his alter-ego CONTROL ALT DΞLΞTΞ.
Diablo’s influence stretches far beyond the DJ booth — he’s a top-selling crypto artist, acclaimed digital visual artist (with showcases at Sotheby’s and the Venice Biennale), and the founder of HEXAGON, a label and fashion brand known for collaborations with Disney, Lucasfilm, and Netflix. His HEXAGON Radio show reaches over 68 countries weekly, and his NFT concert film DΞSTINATION HΞXAGONIA set a new precedent for digital music experiences.
CONTROL ALT DΞLΞTΞ isn’t just a side project — it’s a total creative reboot. Much like the keyboard command it’s named after, it’s about overriding expectations and exploring a darker, sharper sound palette outside of the four-to-the-floor format Don is traditionally known for.
