Bloody Mary @ Rave The Planet 2025 (LIVE recording)

“Music That Saved Me” – Chapter 2 🖤

This one is *huge* for me. “Meet Her At The Love Parade” was one of those records that made me fall in love with rave culture before I even really knew what it was. That rolling bassline, that simple hook, and the feeling that there was this massive party happening somewhere in the world that you *had* to find your way to.

This Hard Mike Revisit is my 2025 love letter to Da Hool’s classic – rebuilt for modern sound systems but trying to keep that pure parade energy alive. Big drums, updated low-end, some fresh synth work and arrangement flips, but the same heart: unity, nostalgia, and that bittersweet feeling of walking through a city at night after the party ends, still hearing the track in your head.

This is the second entry in my **“Music That Saved Me”** series: remixes of songs that got me through a lot and shaped who I am as a DJ/producer. If this tune ever meant something to you too, I hope this version gives you that same rush on a big system. 💫

Da Hool - Meet Her At The Love Parade (Hard Mike Revisit) (FREE DL)

Silver floats rising in the crystal skies
Pianos spark like sunlight in our eyes

Glittering heights, we’re flying free
In this shimmering grand odyssey

Piano waves glitter through the crowd
Hearts lift higher under voices loud
Every float unfolds a world anew
We breathe the shimmer, all in dazzling view

Glittering heights, we’re flying free
In this shimmering grand odyssey

Hands go higher, rhythm starts to bend
Drums push forward like the day won’t end
Waves of light carry us off the ground
The parade becomes the beat we’ve found

Glittering heights, we’re flying free
In this shimmering grand odyssey
Colours burst like stars in wide array
Euphoria crowns the parade today

Soft hush falls… then the piano bursts again
Golden flare rolling through the lane
Floating in the haze with widened eyes
Together held by the spectacle’s rise

Glittering heights, we’re flying free
In this shimmering grand odyssey
Colours burst like stars in wide array
Euphoria crowns the parade today

Macy’s Parade Euphoria

Flags stir in the warm morning air
Trolley wheels hum under a small crowd
Players lift their voices into the blue
Trumpet bright, clarinet smooth, trombone steady
Sidewalks open to dancers and wanderers
The old street lamp glows as the city finds its tune

We parade and bring the street alive
We raise the rhythm over the tide
We let the horns carry our refrain
We dance until the sun forgets the night

Brass echoes down Royal Street with laughter near
Children spin beneath the soft willow shade
Banjo rings, bass drum thuds, rhythm moves free
Night and day blend and the air turns to music
Lantern light glints on shoes as beads fall and roll
We hold our story in every beat
Horns fade into sunrise and the city wakes

We parade and bring the street alive
We raise the rhythm over the tide
We let the horns carry our refrain
We dance until the sun forgets the night

We march through alleys where the river meets brick
Our laughter travels through the folds of time
Each note lifts like a banner above the roofs
Together we become the shape of the parade

We parade and bring the street alive
We raise the rhythm over the tide
We let the horns carry our refrain
We dance until the sun forgets the night
We parade and bring the street alive
We raise the rhythm over the tide
We let the horns carry our refrain
We dance until the sun forgets the night

We parade

Rerun Series #12: Technoboy @ FFWD Heineken Dance Parade 2006

Great memories from the Village Parade concept
This was the concept I was resident for and set my mark as a deejay for playing electronic music.... 
So about all the stories then you heard about the village parade, they were probably all true.... 
This was an amazing time to deejay and sure party, something I often think about....
This live set was recorded 14 July from 0130 till 0300 before a crowd of approximately 500 people, the dj gear I used was I think djm800 & cdj1000 mk3...

The Village Parade Afterparty 13 July 2008

The entire sound is in my hands. I write cyber poetry, produce, and compose every track ready for Immersive 3D. Every beat is crafted for spatial and next-gen headphones.
Intimate lyrics, total immersion, every track.

For 30 years I kept unfinished demos to myself, never letting them out. Now I finish what I start and release it the moment it’s alive.

I use every tool available, human or machine, as an instrument.
Technology doesn’t replace creativity. It expands it.

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.
