Following his #1 status, Hardwell arrived with a backpack full of unreleased IDs. This was the year he premiered Dare You live. The production quality of the set—synced perfectly with the floating "Book of Wisdom" stage design—was revolutionary. He didn't just play music; he orchestrated a narrative.
