Playlist For HardTechno Asylum Festival 2024

TECHNO, HARD TECHNO ARE MY DNA ❤️‍🔥💯⚡💯❤️‍🔥

Hi! My name's Raúl but my nickname as a musician is Jurgo, I was born and live in Valencia, Spain. Currently today I am a DJ and previously I was also a record producer, although honestly that stage of my life has been closed but it is likely that I will resume it again as I have recently resumed being a DJ, but do not worry that below I will tell you my story.

I was interested in electronic music from a very young age and when I decided to become a DJ and music producer for the first time after several years being a fan of this musical style was in 2014 and I was 16 years old. Back then the predominant electronic music was EDM and all its subgenres such as Bass House, Hard House, Jungle Terror, Melbourne Bounce, Progressive House, Tech House, Dark Techno, Melodic Techno, Dirty Dutch and Big Room among others. These musical styles were my first contact with the party and with my identity, so it pushed me to create my own music mainly and be able to DJ as a second plane, but after several years self-taught I decide to stop producing music in 2017 due to lack of resources and ideas to continue composing. Also as a DJ I was young, I had little experience and low self-confidence to make myself known or be able to play live music outside of my home or my comfort zone. This stage was the first and although it was short and not intense I remember it fondly because it was the beginning of my link with the world of music with songs at about 128 BPM.

I had a hard time taking back the world of electronic music, but that was the end of it. It took more than 5 years to do that but here we are back since 2023. Everything has changed a lot and we have adapted to it, because we have gone through the era of the COVID-19 and now in terms of electronic music we have increased the BPM because what predominates today is the Techno music and all their respective subgenres like Hard Techno, Schranz, Acid, Industrial, NeoRave, Makina, Groove, RawStyle, Gabber, NewStyle, Bumping, Frenchcore, Hardcore, HardBass, Tekno, XtraRaw and many more...

I can say that in this new stage it’s all the other way around, just like now my style is characterized by increasing BPM I’ve also increased energy, the illusion of giving the best of me and above all self-confidence when it comes to making myself known by playing live music and making sets as a DJ, as I told you at the beginning in this second part as a musician my main focus is to be a DJ and currently I do not contemplate producing and creating my own music as I did before but I definitely do not discard it and later possibly I will be in the process to learn from scratch to produce Techno and Hard music.

Currently I still maintain the idea of mixing at 128 BPM as I used to do with EDM music but sporadically and with more current genres like Melodic Techno, Tech House and Dark Techno. But my main focus is mixing songs that have at least 140 BPM and maximum 200 BPM. It’s f*cking Hard time!

HT Blue to polska DJ-ka specjalizująca się w brzmieniach hardtechno i schranz – gatunkach, które pokochała już w 2007 roku. To wtedy po raz pierwszy zetknęła się z ich bezkompromisową energią i ciężkimi rytmami, które na zawsze zapisały się w jej muzycznym DNA. Przez wiele lat grała wyłącznie dla siebie, aż do 2 grudnia 2022 roku, kiedy – po trudnym okresie w życiu – zdecydowała się wyjść ze swoją muzyką do ludzi i podzielić się nią z innymi.
Jej pierwszy publiczny występ odbył się w nieistniejącym już klubie w Nowym Sączu, a zaraz potem zagrała na Szpitalnej w Krakowie. Od tamtej pory pojawiła się na takich wydarzeniach i w takich miejscach jak Grota Rave i Techno Explore w Warszawie, HardTechno Asylum Festival w Jaworznie, Stacja Praga w Warszawie oraz Technocode: Time To Rave w klubie Spectrum w Łodzi. Ma na koncie także występy w Niemczech – podczas Maheti Records Marathon, Maheti Records Halloween oraz Casa Kay Streams – dzieląc się swoją selekcją z międzynarodową publicznością.
Jest współzałożycielką kolektywu CTTP Events, z którym promuje hardtechno i buduje lokalną scenę, wspierając innych artystów i tworząc przestrzeń dla fanów mocniejszych brzmień. Jej sety to hołd dla oldschoolowego hardtechno i schranzu – gatunków, które grają w jej niebieskim sercu i stanowią fundament jej stylu. Nie boi się jednak dodawać industrialnych akcentów, a w ostatnim czasie coraz bardziej zakochuje się w hardpsy, które planuje wplatać w swoje występy.
HT Blue ma na swoim koncie podcasty dla Beats Donor, Core Target Techno Productions, FNOOB Radio oraz CTTP Events. Jej podejście do muzyki to szczerość, pasja i bezkompromisowa energia – a każdy set to pełna zaangażowania podróż po cięższej stronie muzyki elektronicznej.

HT Blue is a Polish DJ specializing in hardtechno and schranz – genres she fell in love with back in 2007. That’s when she first encountered their uncompromising energy and heavy rhythms, which became etched into her musical DNA. For many years, she played only for herself, until December 2, 2022, when – after going through a difficult period in her life – she decided to share her music with others. Her first public performance took place at a now-defunct club in Nowy Sącz, and shortly after, she played at Szpitalna in Kraków.

Since then, she has performed at events and venues such as Grota Rave and Techno Explore in Warsaw, HardTechno Asylum Festival in Jaworzno, Stacja Praga in Warsaw, and Technocode: Time To Rave at Spectrum Club in Łódź. She has also played in Germany – at Maheti Records Marathon, Maheti Records Halloween, and Casa Kay Streams – sharing her selection with international audiences.

She is a co-founder of the CTTP Events collective, through which she promotes hardtechno and supports the local scene by empowering other artists and creating a space for fans of harder sounds. Her sets are a tribute to old-school hardtechno and schranz – genres that beat in her blue heart and form the foundation of her style. Still, she’s not afraid to add industrial elements, and lately, she’s been falling more and more in love with hardpsy, which she plans to weave into her future sets.

HT Blue has recorded podcasts for Beats Donor, Core Target Techno Productions, FNOOB Radio, and CTTP Events. Her approach to music is all about honesty, passion, and uncompromising energy – and each set is a fully immersive journey into the heavier side of electronic music.
