New mix alert!! A follow up in my series of showcases about the Saifam labels (BLQ, Dance Pollution, Green Force, Red Alert & Titanic records). Productions by artists like Technoboy, Tuneboy, Luca Antolini, Ricky T etc.

2003 is a special year for me since it's the year I think hardstyle was born. Most of the things before had more trance or acid influences. It was also the year I picked up DJ'ing AND the year I discovered a program called Soulseek (p2p sharing) which blew my mind back then! :D Suddenly all these full length versions of tracks were available to me. It fired my passion for the music even more. AND it was the year I started to go to many awesome hardstyle parties!

Enough talk! Please enjoy this hard and fast mix (152 BPM!)

01- Citizen - Toxic (Hardstyle Masterz Remix)
02- Speedwave - The Hardstyle Factory (Hardwave Mix)
03- Dark Oscillators - Nasty Jungle (Hardstyle Masterz Remix)
04- Timescape - The Ultimate Sad Action
05- The Raiders - Moonlight (Fullmoon Mix)

SAIFAM Speciale - Edizione 2003 (10.04.2018)

Trance Generator Live-Set @ Hardclassics RVRS Bass Stage 23-02-2019

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 ;)
