CMC$ and Terror Jr Join Forces for Euphoric New Single “Risk It All”
AMSTERDAM / LOS ANGELES – Dutch multi-platinum producer and DJ CMC$ has teamed up with genre-blending dark pop duo Terror Jr for a dynamic new single, “Risk It All”, a heartfelt and high-energy pop-house anthem that promises to make waves on both festival stages and radio charts.
Blending pulsing kick drums, ethereal melodies, and emotionally rich lyricism, “Risk It All” opens with an infectious energy that hooks listeners instantly. Fronted by Lisa’s soaring vocals from Terror Jr, the track explores the vulnerability and thrill of throwing caution to the wind for love—delivered with an emotional intensity that’s as moving as it is danceable.
“Lisa came to the Netherlands for a writers’ trip and rented a farmhouse somewhere in the countryside near Amsterdam,” CMC$ recalls. “I went over there, and we wrote the song together in the farmhouse living room. The process went really smoothly, and within a few hours, we had the song ready! After making several production tweaks, we finally nailed it. This one’s a smash!”
A Meeting of Music Powerhouses
CMC$, born Yael Nahar, is no stranger to global success. With over 1 billion streams on his co-written and co-produced hit “In The Name Of Love” by Martin Garrix & Bebe Rexha, and platinum and gold certifications under his belt for hits like “Not Going Home” (with DVBBS & Gia Koka) and “Parallel Lines”, he continues to carve his legacy in the global electronic music scene.
Beyond the studio, CMC$ has graced stages at Tomorrowland (Belgium), Ultra Singapore, and Parookaville (Germany), and has supported Martin Garrix at iconic venues like Ushuaïa Ibiza and Amsterdam RAI. His work spans major labels such as Spinnin’, STMPD, Ultra, and Universal Music.
On the other hand, Terror Jr—known for their moody, genre-defying sound and over 400 million streams—have steadily built a cult following. With viral hits like “3 Strikes” (currently surging on TikTok and Douyin in China), a sold-out U.S. tour, and standout appearances at Lollapalooza, Camp Flog Gnaw, and Osheaga, the duo continues to prove their versatility and fan devotion.
A Taste of What’s to Come
“Risk It All” is just a glimpse into what’s coming from both CMC$ and Terror Jr. With Terror Jr set to release a 16-track album and embark on a fall 2025 tour, and CMC$ continuing to drop high-impact singles and perform across the globe, fans can expect even more boundary-pushing music in the coming months.
The new single marks a seamless fusion of two distinct sonic worlds—CMC$’s futuristic house-driven production and Terror Jr’s moody, magnetic pop—culminating in a track that is both sonically sophisticated and emotionally raw.
Whether you’re vibing at home, hitting the club, or watching the sun rise at a festival, “Risk It All” delivers the perfect blend of melancholy and euphoria.
