Electronic music pioneer Paul van Dyk is launching CORE360, a groundbreaking 360° immersive performance concept, with the debut show taking place on November 29, 2025 at 99 Scott in Brooklyn, New York. The legendary DJ and producer will perform an exclusive open-to-close set spanning six hours, from 10pm until 4am, with tickets now available.
CORE360 represents a radical departure from traditional DJ performances, with van Dyk positioned at the centre of the venue on a circular stage, completely surrounded by the audience. This innovative setup creates an intimate yet high-energy experience that places fans literally at the heart of the music, breaking down the conventional barriers between performer and crowd.
The performance will showcase van Dyk’s full creative range, featuring multiple instruments and controllers that allow him to perform and improvise in real time. This setup enables the acclaimed producer to blend his signature sounds with spontaneous creativity and cutting-edge production techniques, with every angle, sound, and moment designed to fully immerse the audience within the core of the music.
“CORE360 is about breaking down barriers,” van Dyk explained. “It’s about bringing the audience closer to the creative process, surrounding them with sound and emotion. It’s a shared experience, we’re all in the middle of the music together.”
The concept embodies van Dyk’s long-held belief in the emotional and human essence of electronic music. For the German-born artist, every beat and melody represents a dialogue between technology and feeling, a reminder that at the heart of the global dance scene lies a shared pulse that connects us all beyond the lights and spectacle.
CORE360 represents a celebration of authenticity, spontaneity, and unity, dissolving the traditional divide between artist and audience into a single, collective rhythm. Through this concept, van Dyk reaffirms that the truest innovation in music comes not from complexity, but from returning to what is essential: the emotional core that has always defined his sound and the electronic music movement itself.
Building on his renowned VANDIT Records legacy and decades at the forefront of electronic music innovation, van Dyk continues to push live performance forward with this latest venture. The six-hour open-to-close format allows the artist to take fans on an extended musical journey, blending technology, artistry, and connection in a way that showcases his decades of experience and creative vision.
The debut CORE360 show takes place at 99 Scott in Brooklyn, a venue known for hosting cutting-edge electronic music events. Tickets are available now for what promises to be a landmark moment in immersive live electronic music performance.
