The Electric Daisy Carnival in Las Vegas brings together the top DJs in the dance world every year for an estimated 500,000 attendees to enjoy over 3 days. For many EDM artists, playing the festival is a marker for truly “making it.” This year, Toronto-native, HNTR made his EDC debut. Although he didn’t have a set on the lineup in 2025, his presence was definitely felt. His remix of Cloonee and InntRaw’s “Stephanie” which samples Young M.A’s “OOOUUU” could be heard at practically every stage.

Fast forward one year and HNTR’s dropped his new track “Holla At A Player” featuring Academy Award Winner, Juicy J. We caught up with the DJ and producer to find out how the song came together, see what his life looks like after the success of a viral remix and get to know the man behind the stagename.
At last year’s EDC, I asked a bunch of DJs what the most played track of the festival would be and Tiësto, Alison Wonderland, Alok, Morten, and Tape B all said your remix of Cloonee’s “Stephanie” would be the most played song of the year. A year later, what was it like watching that song blow up?
