German House Force Marten Hørger Delivers the Official Parookaville 2026 Anthem – “Rave.” Out Now via Kontor Records

07/03/2026 Brandon Stuhr

Germany’s Marten Hørger has become one of the defining names in modern house music, carving out a signature sound that blends classic house, techno and bass music into something distinctly his own. Dubbed “The Future” by DJ Mag UK, his forward-thinking productions have led to collaborations with artists including David Guetta, Dillon Francis, Tchami, Apashe, Habstrakt and Sonny Fodera. His influence continues to grow, with more than 150 million Spotify streams, recurring placement among 1001Tracklists’ Top 50 most influential electronic artists, and Beatport naming him the platform’s most successful Bass House artist of all time in 2022.

Hørger has also built a reputation as a powerhouse live performer, selling out club tours across North America, Europe, Asia and Australia while appearing on the main stages of festivals like Tomorrowland, EDC, Glastonbury, Burning Man, Shambhala and Fusion. His momentum continued with Faze Magazine naming him Germany’s National Breakthrough Act of the Year in 2023, alongside a #88 ranking in the DJ Mag Top 100 DJs poll, further cementing his place among electronic music’s biggest international stars.

“Parookaville Festival has become a second home to me over the years. I’m incredibly proud and excited to deliver this year’s official anthem.” – Marten Hørger

Marten Hørger is back with “Rave,” a massive new single out now via Kontor Records that’s been tapped as the official anthem for Parookaville 2026. Built around pounding house and tech-house grooves, the track is exactly what you’d expect from its title—a high-energy festival weapon made for packed dancefloors and main-stage moments. It continues a strong run for the German producer, following recent projects like “Arizona” with Robin Schulz and Men Machine, his collaboration with David Guetta.

The release also marks another chapter in Hørger’s long-standing relationship with Parookaville, where he’ll perform July 17-19 alongside Armin van Buuren, Charlotte de Witte, Fisher, The Chainsmokers, Steve Aoki, Boys Noize, Pendulum and more. This year’s festival will also be a little different, with the FIFA World Cup taking place during the same weekend. Fans won’t have to choose between football and music, though, as screens across the festival grounds will broadcast the matches while the party keeps going.

Make sure you check out “Rave” on YouTube below and over on Spotify!
