genius transition from 'straight' to triplets rhythm. showtek masterminds at work!

Finally managed to finish a new showcase! This time it's about the Dutch hero's SHOWTEK! Nowadays the brothers are far away from producing hardstyle, but back in the days they're always pioneering and leading the way!

Also, I left out a great amount of cool tracks which I will showcase in the near future. One about the real early stuff, and one more nustylish.

SHOWTEK classics showcase VOL.1 (2003-2006) (28.06.2020)

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.
