Gabber Syndrome @ Ouwe Stijl is Botergeil - 10 jaar Strength of Unity

Strength of Unity is a Dutch organization based in Amsterdam that focusses on organizing hard dance events. With the help of a dedicated crew filled with a couple of skilled DJ's we invite other famous or upcoming DJ's and Live Acts from the scene to perform at our heart pounding events.

On November 24, 2006 a new party organization was born in Amsterdam. A group of friends with a passion for the harder styles of house music noticed that there was a need for small inexpensive party's. From 8:00 p.m. to 2:00, the student pub 'The Kult' converted into an harder styles event called Kultbaze. From that moment there was no stopping us. In the course of five years, the organization has became a big name in the Amsterdam party scene. Good atmosphere, banging beats and surprising themes made every party unique and a must to attend. Strength Of Unity is also one of the few harder style organizations to take part of the annual Amsterdam Dance event.

Together with well-known and upcoming names in the scene, the organization sets down two big success formulas:

Brainburst, hard rough and experimental HARDCORE banging decibels. This event was the cause that the north south line tunnel trough Amsterdam had to be severely reinforced. The mixture between Early Hardcore, Gabba and Psycore sounds blended together with the new dark sounds of Frenchcore makes this party unique, in other words: 'there ain't no other'.

'Ouwe Stijl is Botergeil' (Old Style is Fucking Horny), is our most famous concept and without doubt one of the best parties in its genre. Here we return to the hardest and roughest sounds of Early Hardcore (Gabba). We prove that this style is still very much alive and that the 'gabber' (gabba) feeling still stands for companionship, great atmosphere and going out of your mind!
