Ely Oaks Joins Select Circle of Heavyweight with New Remix for HAVEN. And Kaitlin Aragon’s “I Run” While His North American Tour Rolls On
Born in the Austrian ski town of Kitzbühel and now based in Berlin, Ely Oaks has quickly become one of dance music’s most exciting breakout stars. Blending underground club energy with pop accessibility, he’s built a massive global following—amassing over 12 million monthly Spotify listeners and nearly a million social followers. In 2024, TikTok named him Germany’s #1 most-followed DJ, highlighting his ability to captivate audiences both online and on stage. His viral hit “Running Around” surpassed 100 million streams and landed in Spotify’s Songs of Summer 2025, while collaborations like “Borderline” with LAVINIA and high-profile partnerships with Alok, Timmy Trumpet, and James Hype have cemented his crossover appeal.
Rooted in an eclectic background that spans indie rock, metalcore, and early dubstep, Ely’s evolution from small-town dreamer to festival headliner reflects a fearless creative drive. A viral Florence + The Machine remix launched his solo career in 2021, leading to performances at Tomorrowland, Ultra Australia, and Ushuaïa Ibiza, with a debut at EDC Orlando ahead. Whether through viral remixes or mainstage anthems, Ely Oaks represents a new generation of electronic artists—blending personal history, genre fluidity, and digital-native storytelling into a truly global sound.
After opening 2026 with his official remix of Opalite by Taylor Swift, Austrian-born, Berlin-based producer Ely Oaks keeps the momentum going with a new remix of I Run by HAVEN featuring Kaitlin Aragon. The original track has become a major streaming success, nearing 130 million plays on Spotify, and has already attracted official remixes from dance heavyweights like David Guetta and James Hype. Ely’s take leans into the club side of the track, tightening the groove with punchy drums, driving basslines, and the kind of high-energy build that feels made for big festival moments.
The release arrives while Ely is deep into a busy North American tour, bringing his sound to cities like Boston, Atlanta, Los Angeles, Denver, Vancouver, Calgary, Charlotte, and Charleston before heading into Miami Music Week. After a breakout 2025 powered by singles like “Running Around” and “Borderline,” he’s carrying that momentum straight into the new year — balancing high-profile remix work with a growing presence on the road as he continues to connect with audiences across both streaming platforms and dancefloors.
