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 Center Stage in 2026

Building on the momentum of 2025, The Rocketman has embarked on his most extensive release schedule to date. Beginning in April, new music is being released every two weeks throughout the year, creating a continuous rollout that will culminate in a twenty-track album project unlike anything he has released before.

The campaign has already introduced listeners to the first chapter of the project through:

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

The releases showcase the broad musical range that defines the project, blending influences from rave, trance, techno, bounce, and contemporary dance music while remaining rooted in club culture.

The rollout continues with:

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

with additional releases arriving every two weeks through December.

Alongside the ongoing release schedule, 2026 will bring 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 others, making this the most collaborative period of The Rocketman’s career to date.

OUTCAST

More than an album, OUTCAST is a year-long release campaign consisting of twenty records, seventeen previously unreleased tracks, and collaborations spanning multiple generations and styles of dance music.

The project reflects The Rocketman’s continued commitment to creating without boundaries. Refusing to be defined by a single genre, OUTCAST brings together influences from 90s rave culture, trance, bounce, techno, and modern dance music while connecting artists from different backgrounds, scenes, and musical perspectives.

From April through December, a new chapter of the story unfolds every two weeks, with each release contributing to the larger OUTCAST narrative and expanding the scope of the project.

Beyond the music itself, OUTCAST will be supported by an extensive creative campaign featuring visual storytelling, social content, radio appearances, press coverage, billboard and poster campaigns, club performances, festival appearances, and special All Day Long and All Night Long events designed to bring the concept to life both online and on stage.

A major highlight of the campaign arrives with The Rocketman’s All Day Long performance at Boomerang Scheveningen, providing fans with an immersive experience built around the music, energy, and creative vision driving the project forward.

In 2026, The Rocketman continues touring throughout Europe and Asia while preparing for a planned debut United States tour later this year, introducing the project to new audiences while expanding its international footprint.

As OUTCAST unfolds throughout the remainder of the year, The Rocketman continues to build on an already impressive foundation of releases, performances, and collaborations. Through a steady stream of new music and a commitment to artistic individuality, the project is entering its most active and expansive chapter yet.
