A decade since ‘Secrets’ initially dominated the globe, the dance music classic is returning with vengeance. The original – Tiësto, KSHMR, and Australian singer VASSY’s 2015 smash hit – peaked on charts in more than 30 nations, achieved over 10× Platinum status worldwide, and earned a permanent place in festival lore.
Now, in 2025, VASSY has collaborated with fellow countryman DJ/producer Tigerlily on reimagining the track, giving it a rework engineered to destroy today’s mainstages and club floors.
When ‘Secrets’ was released, it was this incredible moment in my career,” VASSY states. “It’s still one of the most requested songs at shows. This year seemed like the right time to go back and do it, particularly with Tigerlily, who’s been playing it in her sets for years. We retained the essence of the original but gave it a brand-new kick for the crowd today.
For Tigerlily, choosing ‘Secrets’ as the project to reimagine was an easy decision. “It’s one of those songs that just gets different in the club,” she says. “We wanted to pay respect to what made it so iconic but take it into 2025 with the type of energy people are looking for now – harder, faster, more intense.
The new ‘Secrets’ raises the tempo, raises the drops, and loads up on dynamic percussion with more aggressive sound design. The BPM is increased, the builds are increased, and the track has been optimized for the huge sound systems of the festivals like Ultra, Tomorrowland, and EDC. “Fans just kept saying to me that they wanted an even more energetic version,” adds VASSY. “So we gave it that punch of today without losing the feeling.”
Tigerlily makes a point that the remix too showcases the changing trends of electronic music. “The scene has migrated toward quicker tempos, particularly with the influence of TikTok and short-form content. People desire tracks that impact right away, so we cranked it up to fulfill that need without losing the magic.”
Beyond its new production polish, ‘Secrets’ (2025) feels like a celebration of two generations of Australian talent. VASSY’s soaring vocals remain front and center, anchoring the track’s emotional core, while Tigerlily’s modern production touch pulls it firmly into the present. The result is a version that works just as well for long-time fans reliving the original’s glory as it does for a new wave of listeners discovering it for the first time.
The release is already beginning to create waves, illuminating streaming platforms and finding itself in prestige DJ sets globally. It’s nostalgia, but it’s also evidence that an actually great dance track can be recreated for a new generation without sacrificing what made it unforgettable in the beginning.
With its explosive energy, soaring vocals, and mainstage-ready production, ‘Secrets’ (2025) is primed to be one of the defining festival anthems of the year. Whether you’re catching it under the lasers at a packed club or shouting the lyrics with thousands of fans in a festival field, this is ‘Secrets’ like you’ve never heard it before – faster, louder, and built for the future.
Out now on Soave Records sublabel The Circus, VASSY and Tigerlily’s reworked ‘Secrets’ is set to take its place as the soundtrack to 2025’s biggest dance moments.
