In 2012, the band was regularly traveling to perform in New York City, where Armbruster met and collaborated with producer Alan Wilkis on his new project Big Data . Armbruster wrote four songs, including the single “Dangerous”, which was recorded by Wilkis with Armbruster on vocals, and credited to Big Data featuring Joywave. The song peaked at number two on the Billboard Rock & Alternative Airplay chart in 2014. Following the viral success of “Dangerous”, Joywave performed at Lollapalooza in Chicago and made their television debut in July 2014 on Late Night with Seth Meyers , where they performed the song with Big Data, as well as their own song ” Tongues “. In 2015, they would also perform on Jimmy Kimmel Live and VH1 ‘s Big Morning Buzz Live . The band then signed a contract with the Disney -owned label Hollywood Records to form their own imprint, Cultco, and obtained unique permission to use samples from Disney’s movie catalog in their music. The band released their second EP, How Do You Feel? , later in 2014.
