It’s been a stratospheric rise for talented Dutch producer Just_us, by any measure.  Just_us has had tours worldwide, playing some of the planet’s most revered clubs. Armin van Buuren called on Just_us to open at his 2022 Ushuaia residency and close out his Dubai NYE spectacular in Dubai. His 2022 Spinnin’ release ‘Speed’ saw major North American support from Kaskade, Zedd, and Deadmau5, as he signed Just_us to Mau5trap for an EP release, Kaskade co-producing seismic banger ‘Dance With Me’. Just_us closed out 2023 with two huge moves: the release of ‘Make It Count’ with Armin van Buuren and on Sony Music, a newer high-tempo, pop-influenced sound on single ‘Years’, the first to drop from a multi-track deal with the recording giant. As Just_us continues to grow, evolve, and increasingly influence the electronic musical landscape, the spark that came to life almost a decade ago is on course to become one of the brightest of his generation.
