Chasing Dawn

Hard Mike is a Chicago-based DJ and producer known for igniting dancefloors with his explosive blend of Dutch house, electro, and dubstep. Driven by a lifelong obsession with high-octane sound, Mike earned the moniker “Hard Mike” thanks to his unshakable love for the harder styles of dance music.

His journey began at just 14, when a friend’s older brother introduced him to the pounding rhythms of Hardstyle—an encounter that would shape his musical DNA forever. From that moment on, Mike dove headfirst into music production, experimenting with software and forging his own signature sound.

Over the last three years, Hard Mike has become a staple in Chicago’s club scene, rocking the decks at legendary venues like Crobar, Sound-Bar, Vlive, Enclave, Vision, Republic, Ontourage, and more. His high-energy sets have earned him opening slots for global heavyweights including David Guetta, Erick Morillo, Rusko, ATB, Ferry Corsten, and others.

Influenced by the genre-bending styles of Deadmau5, Skrillex, Feed Me, Afrojack, and Laidback Luke, Hard Mike fuses gritty basslines, crisp percussion, and melodic chaos into every performance.

With fresh productions on the horizon and a relentless drive to push boundaries, Hard Mike isn’t just part of the scene—he is the storm coming.
