ZATOX - Italian Techno & Hardstyle

The Italian Hardstyle music icon Zatox is a fundamental character in the hard dance scene. With a career that spans over two decades, he has not only witnessed the evolution of the genre but has been a pivotal force in shaping it. From playing at iconic festivals to the groundbreaking tracks that have become anthems for an entire generation, Zatox's journey is a testament to a relentless pursuit of musical innovation.
Gerardo Roschini (Rome, Italy) uses his alter ego Zatox to bring his taste of raw and unpolished dancefloor gold to stages and clubs in all corners of the globe. His influence on the hard dance community is acknowledged worldwide, evidenced by multiple appearances in the DJ MAG TOP 100 and his presence on international stages such as Defqon1, Tomorrowland, EDC, World Club Dome, Mysteryland, and WDF Korea, among many more.
Zatox started his musical journey in the early 2000s, experimenting with sound to find a balance between capturing his inner turmoil and resonating with those sweating it out on the dancefloor. The creator of ‘Raw-Style’ (2010) continued his journey with the groundbreaking hit ‘My Life’ (2012) and maintained his success with tracks like ‘Rumble in the Jungle’ (2015) and the crowd-favorite ‘For Ever’ (2017). His latest album, ‘The Unstoppable’ (2023), reaffirms his dedication to musical experimentation, introducing new fusions of techno and intense dance music. Tracks like ‘Apollo’ and ‘Techno Power’ show a glimpse of Zatox’s future sound.

Hardcore Underground as a brand was born in 2006 when we released our first compilation CD in the UK & Ireland. Further critically acclaimed compilations have followed, and have featured some of Hardcore's finest DJs showcasing exciting, high quality music from both new and established artists alike. In 2009 we became a record label in our own right, with both the third and fourth albums finding their way into mainstream stores on a new imprint, free from any commercial affiliation with anyone; a truly independent record label. We began releasing singles too (initially on 12” vinyl as well as digitally) through all major stores, and continued to host our unique and popular club nights.

We have continued to release high quality music in various formats, including many landmark releases for the genre, both through our own platform and through other major vendors. We remain as committed to (and as passionate about!) pushing things forward as we have ever been. We will always strive to innovate, and we’ll continue to be at the very forefront of releasing modern music as a self-contained, self sufficient media outlet.

Dutch/Turkish award winning Dj, record producer and sound designer Ummet Ozcan has stamped  his name on the global electronic music scene with numerous Beatport #1’s and flaunting a prolific catalog of festival anthems. 

In 2014 he delivers a number of solid chart breakers like ‘Raise your Hands’ and  ‘Revolution’ which comes with a classic Mad Max style music video. The massive 2015 tune ‘The Hum’,  in cooperation with Belgium star’s Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, appears to be one of his biggest workings til date. And there are more highly successful joint efforts with other renowned Dj’s with the likes of Calvin Harris, Tiësto and Steve Aoki. 
Rewarded for his relentless dedication he lands the 19th spot in DJ Mag’s Top 100 DJ’s in 2016, the greatness that is Ummet Ozcan, only grows bigger.

Growing up in the known epicentre of dance music, The Netherlands, it isn’t difficult for Ozcan (1982) to plug into dance music at a young age. Since achieving his first major success in 2011 with ‘Reboot’, a firm #1 on Beatport, the veteran DJ’s major hits have been sampled in his peers’ radio podcasts and played at festival mainstages all over the world. In 2012 his genre-defying #1 smash hit ‘The Box’ is one of the most played records at EDC Las Vegas, while a year later his W&W collab ‘The Code’ is one of the most popular tracks at Ultra Music Festival 2013, followed by the remix of Fatboy Slim’s ‘Eat Sleep Rave Repeat’ together with Dimitri Vegas and Like Mike. In 2014 and 2015 Ozcan sees another amount of his tracks reach the highest chart positions. ’Smash’ and ‘Superwave’  become instantaneous hits, racking up millions of YT views and making it to #1. Also more recent titles like ‘Lose Control’ and ‘Stars’ are sure shots. 2017 brings a number of great releases and a critically acclaimed remix of Axwell & Ingrosso’s ‘More than you know’.

A success story that’s about to enter new grounds as In March 2018 he launches his own imprint ‘OZ Records’ which is a homebase for global Ozcan releases and for other talent. Also 2018 gives birth to his software developing company called ‘OzSoft’ that will be focused on providing gamechanging digital tools for the producers community and beyond. The first release that will make waves is the highly anticipated ‘Genesis Pro’ synth plugin.

With this latest achievement Ozcan passionately proves to be a jack-of-all-trades and keeps contributing greatly to the ever expanding dance music society.
