DIMITRI VEGAS REVIVES THE ART OF VINYL DJING WITH TOMORROWLAND 2025 SET – AVAILABLE NOW ON YOUTUBE

Brace yourself for a visceral wave of nostalgia and vinyl-fuelled euphoria as dance powerhouse Dimitri Vegas premieres his vinyl-only Tomorrowland 2025 Mainstage set on YouTube.



Originally performed on the Sunday of Weekend 2, the set almost didn’t happen at all. Yet, against all odds, the Tomorrowland team pulled off a near-miraculous rebuild. Erecting a streamlined but powerful substitute stage within 48 hours, Dimitri stepped up with a performance that became a defining moment of triumph. A set made even more powerful by the purity of his tools: four turntables and a crate of vinyl.



Offering fans worldwide a rare glimpse into a set that flipped expectations and turned heads across both weekends, this was a deeply personal return to the roots of DJing before the age of digital convenience.



“Before the downloads, the rider requests, and the lasers, it was always about records. This set was about going back to that.”, says Dimitri.



Recorded live at Tomorrowland’s Weekend 2, the set is a spine-tingling homage to the golden era of rave: thundering techno, euphoric trance, acid-laced anthems and hard-edged classics. It’s a love letter to ‘90s rave and early 2000s electronica, rebuilt with modern muscle via exclusive edits, high-impact remixes and carefully selected collaborations.



Drawing on the legendary sounds of Bonzai Records, Southern Fried, and Deconstruction, Dimitri’s selections tap deep into the archives: reworking cult cuts like ‘Adagio For Strings’, ‘Meet Her At The Love Parade’, and Jeff Mills’ ‘The Bells’ for a new generation of ravers.



At a time when USBs and digital files dominate the booth, Dimitri Vegas' decision to spin vinyl at the world’s biggest electronic music festival is a reminder that dance music’s soul still lives in the grooves.



Expect needle drops, crowd roars, and a masterclass in raw analogue energy.
