Music Is Magic is the theme song of the album. “I thought long and hard about what I wanted to do and I made a combination between the more classic hardstyle sound and the sound of today, with a storytelling vocal. Special vibes that come together in one track. The track refers to the special and almost enchanting power that music can have, in line with the concept of the album."

With its standout lead single, ‘Never Change,' KELTEK collaborates with Ran-D. “After over two decades of friendship, creating a track together was a long-awaited dream!” KELTEK shares. In ‘Music Is Magic’, KELTEK invites even more big artists within to create collabs for the album. The track ‘To The Limit,’ together with with Act of Rage, exudes intensity, while ‘Cage (Feed Them The Rage)’ features Unresolved for that real raw sound. Other collabs include Devin Wild on 'Where I Belong' and a remix of KELTEK’s hit ‘Through The Night’ by the talented SCANTRAXX NEXXUS artist ERABREAK. 

‘Music Is Magic’ is all about blending hits and exclusive new tracks, with some differents styles within hardstyle. From the festival-track 'Beautiful Day' to the 200 BPM Frenchcore track ‘Final Call,' each piece brings something unique. The title track, ‘Music Is Magic’, presents the album’s theme, with classic hardstyle elements and with storytelling to reflect the enchantment of music itself.

KELTEK uses the Bitwig DAW to create rich, layered sounds that define his style. His album Music Is Magic highlights music’s ability to connect people. The artwork mirrors this, with each track’s cover art made to match its vibe - whether euphoric, intense, or raw - bringing tunes to life.
