SPITZHACKE CAST 007 // PAROXYZM

[EN] For the first time, we welcome a Dutch artist : @paroxyzmdj!

Born in Germany, Paroxyzm quickly got involved in the electronic scene by settling in Amsterdam. He plays a lot in the Dutch capital, but he also founded the Spitzhacke project through which he spreads his vision of techno.
Intense, frenetic and dark, his music is intended to be like his stage name. To do this, he uses energetic techno to which he mixes trance and hardcore as well as rave sounds from the 90s.

[FR] Pour la première fois, nous accueillons un artiste néerlandais : @paroxyzmdj !

Né en Allemagne, Paroxyzm s'est rapidement impliqué sur la scène électronique en s'installant à Amsterdam. On le retrouve donc un peu partout derrière les platines de la capitale néerlandaise, mais il a également fondé le projet Spitzhacke à travers lequel il diffuse sa vision de la techno.
Intense, frénétique et sombre, sa musique se veut à l'image de son nom de scène. Pour cela, il use d'une techno énergique à laquelle il y mêle de la trance et du hardcore au goût du jour ainsi que des sonorités rave venues des années 90.

Démonstration dans cette course effrénée d'un peu plus d'une heure. Enjoy !

NECTAR - Paroxyzm - LIVE Recording @ ADEV 19.10.2024, Amsterdam

Paroxyzm – the unpronounceable and unwritable name, that stands for a sudden and powerful expression of a strong feeling, especially one that you can’t control. A feeling, that definitely parallels with Paroxyzm.

Finding inspiration in the hard and fast, the German-born techno DJ quickly became involved in the rave scene after his move to Amsterdam. Being part of underground circuits, he discovered his own personal style and passion; a hard, dark and deep sound. 

Driving usually at a blistering tempo, he melts different styles together, by which he creates his personal signature with a continuous galloping flow and powerful storyline. Paroxyzm touches upon a variety of genres, drawing mainly from techno to rave, hardcore and trance – combining elements of the 90s old school and new school. 

Thunderous and cathartic sounds are fired off, accentuating pace and power by hard kicks, daggering synth stabs and rolling snares to embrace tireless energy with a clear intention.
