‘Hi Hello’ had already been tested in DJ sets for a few months, but its defining moment came on The Holy Grounds of Tomorrowland in Boom, Belgium. During his MainStage B2B with Afrojack at Tomorrowland 2026, R3HAB brought out Korolova to play the track together for the first time. Footage of the moment went viral on 1001Tracklists and other channels, building anticipation long before release.

‘Hi Hello’ opens with a delicate vocal that draws listeners in. Then the mood shifts as a powerful synth-driven buildup takes over, leading into a drop made for the biggest stages.

“Working with R3HAB on this track was all about bringing our combined energy to the dancefloor. Premiering it together at Tomorrowland this year was a real highlight, and I’ve been playing it all summer. It’s one of those tracks that gets an immediate reaction from the crowd, and I can’t wait to finally share it with everyone.” - Korolova
"Korolova and I have been perfecting this record all year, and we're very happy to finally release it. Partnering with Tomorrowland Music feels fitting as Korolova joined my B2B with Afrojack to share the song with TML's MainStage audience this summer. The moment was electric and the song has quickly become a fan favorite. The wait is now over, enjoy!" - R3HAB
