Please enjoy my ALPHA BYTE records x RENEGADE SYSTEM showcase! 

Since the HARD TRANCE REVOLUTION sub label ALPHA BYTE recordings was launched last year I wanted to do nothing more than a cool showcase mix. This label solely consists of RENEGADE SYSTEM's own productions and is a playground for him to go back to those early hard trance/style days. He's also challenging himself to produce these tracks in old school ways. Awesome! #fanboy haha

Expect to hear influences from producers like SCOT PROJECT, UBERDRUCK, HENNES & COLD and legendary labels like TRACID TRAX, OVERDOSE etc etc.

TRACKLIST:
01- Everything
02- Black Mamba
03- Consciousness
04- Advanced (Renegade System Remix)
05- Wretched
06- Algorhythm
07- Another World (Renegade System Remix)
08- Global Panic
09- Wrong Is Right
10- Bringing It Back 
11- Delta Drama

MY definitions:
<2000-2006 = EARLY hardstyle
2006-2011 = CLASSIC hardstyle

I'm building an archive of all my favorite tracks. Especially honoring and showcasing the forgotten gems produced by my favorite artists!

BIO:
I started listening to hard dance music in 1999, at the age of 12, the year I went to high school. My taste was pretty random in those early days. But soon the Bitte Ein Beat series would change all that. After purchasing vol.2 and listening it over and over, I knew I had found a new passion in life!

Back then, the term hardstyle wasn't even conceived. We called it hardhouse at first, but that actually never felt right. Luckily someone, somewhere, came up with the name for this new sound: HARDSTYLE! And it felt right immediately.
