It's been almost 6 months since the last podcast for which I am deeply ashamed and apologetic for letting this go so long. Thank you for your wonderful patience. It's been a tricky time here but I am steady enough to get back to sharing my visions of mixing.

This is the story of my absence and what I've been through. 

I wanted to mix the way I know best like I have most of my life. Layers and cuts galore with a proper buildup.

Wounds, tricks, faults, cuts, layers, flaws and all.

Hey Everyone!

I've been grinding out a bunch of tracks lately and wanted to set a challenge to myself to remix a track using samples exclusively from Minecraft (with the exception of the kick/bass & leads)!

Hope you enjoy this fun and cheeky happy hardcore remix and I'm keen to share a bunch of other tunes I've been working on with you all very soon!

Each drop is themed around something different in the game, keen to see how many samples you can spot!

Sweden (dv5k Remix)

Hey everyone!
I’m dv5k — pronounced DUSK, not “dee-vee-five-kay”!

I’m a Happy Hardcore, J-Core, and Frenchcore DJ/Producer based in Melbourne, Australia.

I grew up during what I call the golden era of EDM — surrounded by incredible music from all kinds of genres. Monstercat was a huge part of that journey, and through their releases, I discovered my love for EDM. What started with Electro House, Trap and Brostep evolved into a deep passion for Happy Hardcore and J-Core.

Since starting my DJ journey in 2023 as a finalist at Your Shot (VIC), I’ve had the chance to play all across Australia for major promoters like PHD, Masif, XPR, Fortress, Happily Hardcore, Mirai Nights, Hoshi, and Yokai Beatz, as well as Festival Preparties for Knockout Outdoor & Gearbox Australia. I’ve also supported amazing artists including Wasted Penguinz, DJ Isaac, Tatsunoshin, Fraw, DEEZL, The Straikerz, BMBERJCK, Technikore, JTS, Suae, Unicorn on Ketamine, and many more!

In the past few years, I’ve been proud to help bring Happy Hardcore to a new generation of ravers — earning nominations for Best Overall DJ [Happy Hardcore] and Best Rising Talent [Happy Hardcore] at the 2025 Australian Hardstyle Awards.

My mission is simple: to share the music I grew up with and get everyone hyped on the genre that stole my heart.

You’ll find a bunch of live sets, mixes, and edits here on my SoundCloud — feel free to dive in! If you’re an artist and would like a flip or mix removed, just send me a DM and I’ll take care of it straight away.

Take care of yourselves out there — HTID. Hardcore Til I Die ❤️
