German electronic artist ONINE recently detailed his rapid rise in the dance music scene, highlighting his victory in the Tomorrowland Academy DJ Contest as a career-defining moment. According to an interview published by We Rave You, the producer described performing on the Mainstage at Bootshaus Cologne right after Oliver Heldens as something he could hardly believe, noting that the incredible audience reaction showed his hard work had paid off.
We Rave You reports that ONINE began his musical journey in 2019, initially creating hip-hop and trap beats inspired by Atlanta artists like Future before moving toward bass-heavy electronic genres. The outlet notes that the artist credits his first three years playing hip-hop with teaching him how to read a crowd and build engaging sets. These skills now inform his current Tech House and Bass House productions, which blend electronic energy with roots in trap music.
The interview source further details how ONINE used social media to accelerate his career, growing a TikTok following to around 25,000 users within a year. We Rave You states that this online momentum helped his track “WHERE U GOING MAMA?” reach almost 300,000 streams. Looking ahead, the publication mentions that ONINE will be hosting a radio show on Tomorrowland’s One World Radio and has several tracks ready for release in the near future as he aims to perform on bigger stages globally.
