Posted by VMan on October 11, 2024
Don Fuego’s achievements have propelled them forward in the electronic scene. With over 230,000 streams and backing from names like Zeds Dead, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, and Diplo, their reputation is growing. Releases on Smash Deep, Dimitri Vegas’ label, and collaborations with artists such as ANDREWBATES and Justin Park have expanded their reach. On stage, Don Fuego has performed alongside ACRAZE, Walker & Royce, and Golden Features. Their career continues upward with the release of “Forza.”
“Forza,” their latest track, brings a deeper edge to melodic techno. With a steady bassline and chants from Inter Milan supporters, it creates an electric atmosphere on the dancefloor.

These elements drive the track, making it ideal for peak-hour sets, where its momentum truly shines.
Corey and Mahdi’s journey began long before Don Fuego was formed. Growing up in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, the two shared a bond built on a love for sports and outrageous pranks. After exploring different musical paths—Corey as a pro snowboarder and Mahdi as a songwriter—they reunited in 2020. Their shared history and passion led them to create the high-energy dance music that defines Don Fuego today.
