Zayde Wølf is starting out 2020 with the second release of his “reimagined” series, “New Blood (reimagined).” The original version of "New Blood,” released in 2016 has garnered over 25 million streams, and continues to be one of Zayde Wølf's top tracks across all streaming platforms and has been heard in numerous TV shows, commercials, trailers and films. The reimagined series sees Zayde Wølf mastermind Dustin Burnett reinterpreting some of his most beloved songs. “Last year I hit one of those songwriting walls,” says Burnett on how the concept of the series started. “I couldn’t get over it. No new idea seemed compelling. I was listening to alot of soundtracks and started writing mini orchestral type themes and song ideas and mixing those with my older songs. The best news is that these reimagined songs have helped me break out of the creativity slump and I have some new singles that I’m finishing up as well.”
“Oblivion’ is a beautifully layered and theatrical slow-burn that builds with stirring harmonies and intense instrumentals. It has all the makings of a sci-fi or superhero blockbuster movie soundtrack.” –Forbes Magazine (on the last reimagined track “Oblivion”)
With ZAYDE WØLF, Burnett has built a reputation for music that inspires, motivates and most importantly connects.

Burnett has also creatively expanded his reach by cultivating relationships with partners such as Dude Perfect, one of the top YouTube sports channels with over 40 Million subscribers and 7 Billion views. "I get all these emails, sometimes one a week,” Burnett told Billboard, “with all these stories about how the music has moved people in some way. I wanted to continue to make music for people to be inspired by."
In addition to Zayde Wølf, Burnett is also the co-owner of a drum sample and loops company called That Sound that has gone on to serve nearly 50,000 customers in over 30 countries around the world.
