I'm excited to present my HarderFaster Christmas Party 2024 warm up set, what a cracking party that was, all for a good cause! Which raised a whopping £1900 for Nordoff & Robbins music therapy charity!

I recorded this just after the party and what a party it was! It starts off as a blend of progressive house, trance and melodic techno, steadily building up to a heady mix of progressive uplifting trance. Which filled the room up ready for getting everyone in the mood for an who's who line-up of Trance, Hard Trance/House and Techno DJs, with an incredible dance floor full of up-for-it party people. You all rocked! It was a real privilege to be invited to be on this line-up, and play once again for the HarderFaster crew, thanks for having me!

HarderFaster Xmas Party 2024 Warm Up Set

Composer.
Performer.
DJ.
Guildhall School of Music & Drama.

Custard is a DJ who mixes across the broad spectrum of house, trance & techno. From prog house, trance & techno, to house party bangers, through to alternative & uplifting trance, and up to the banging side hard trance/house and acid techno.

Past DJ residencies include Planet Angel, Boundless and Chilled in a Field Festival.

As a producer he is 1/3 of the Nexus 3 collaboration with the uplifting big room trance releases 'State of Wonder and 'Last Flight' on Discover Records, plus remix duty on Activa's 'Temper' on the To the Point remixed album. 

He's also 1/2 of the Payoff Brothers collaboration; making whatever bootlegs they fancy in any genre. Whether it's fixing a broken remix to make something that makes sense, remaking really old tracks to bring the production up-to-date to make them playable next to modern tracks, or making bootleg remixes that are begging to exist.
