SCANTRAXX classics (2002-2004) (27.08.2021)

So I made a new mix showcasing the last decade of releases by the legendary duo TNT a.k.a. Technoboy & Tuneboy! I've been a fan of these guys since the beginning and they're still going strong. Really digging what they're putting out there lately. Bringing back those 'true' hardstyle vibes. Which means: less melodic, no pitch shifting kicks and more screeches! And let's not forget the revival of the gated kicks! I love it!

02- The Music Is Moving (with Rudeejay)
03- FYAH

A short note: I left out some tracks like Hunting 1 (still partly present in the Lunateck track), Trashin' Madness remix (just couldn't fit it in) and maybe some other Limpar tracks (too trancy). Hope you won't mind! ;)

Anyone here who remembers this artist? Da Boy Tommy was an Belgian jumpstyle/hardstyle producer in the late '90 / early '00. He had some great success with his tracks like Kol Nedra, Halloween and Full Moon. I knew those ones from his album 'I Love School' and you'll mostly hear tracks taken from that one in this showcase.

Sadly Tommy passed away in 2013 after a heavy car accident :'( R.I.P. Tommy! Hopefully many will enjoy your music for years to come and I hope this showcase will help with that!

Hello again! It's been a while. Hoping everybody's safe and sound!

Time to kick off the year with some classic hardstyle. It's my ultimate take on Josh & Wesz and Low-E (Glowiej). These guys were releasing some bomb tracks when I was starting to get into DJ'ing.

Ultimate JOSH & WESZ x LOW-E classics showcase (2006-2011) (26.01.2021)

EARLY HARDSTYLE fanatic! 

If you want to book me or want me to do a guest mix or whatever, DM me please!

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.

SIDE NOTE:
I love 'slow' mixing. Let the tracks breath for a bit instead of mixing 30 in 1 hour! Just my opinion ;)
