TLDR; NUSTYLE a.k.a. classics hardstyle. In short; LOTS of triplets ;) Back again with a new mix! I might have said this before, but I still call 'classic' hardstyle new-/nustyle! I'm trying to do multiple showcases of this one, starting off with Triplet Attack! The word triplet comes from music theory and means to divide a beat up in thirds (or a multiple of 3). This rhythm is so inextricably lin...

After one year I finally managed to make volume 2 of my beloved hard trance classics! This time solely devoted to the one and only hard trance master: SCOT PROJECT!

TRACKLIST: 01- Beam vs Cyrus - Thunder In Paradise (Scot Project Remix) 02-...

You can still hear the 'early hardstyle' influences very well, but also clearly the departure from the old sound. Lots of fast buildups with...

Finally finished a new mix! Took a while because we got blessed with a daughter 3 months ago :D And also started a new job recently. These things take up lots of time ;) So hoping to be back on a regular base soon! The mix I did showcases some of Activator's earlier work. Lots of these tracks are under different aliases, but it's all him. He's a mastermind, a true Italian master of hardstyle! Prep...

Basically it's hard trance at 170 BPM! I just love the energy in these...

Please check out my new 'ultimate' showcase! This time it's Davide Sonar in the spotlight. Especially releases between the years 2005-2009. I consider him a true 'nustyle' pioneer, since his release Y.R.M.L./Disco Hypno on Scantraxx was truely revolutionairy! I will also do a special on his productions pre-2005, but that's gonna take a little more effort! Think tracks from Analogic Distubance, Lim...

New showcase online! About the amazing Dutch producer A-Lusion. Awesome unique style within the scene, which says a lot!

You can conclude that A-Lusion is one of the pioneers of the newer sound, while maintaining the early hardstyle spirit. TRACKLIST: 01- Get Smacked (ft. MC Villain) 02- Give Me Your Soul Tonight (vs...

Next edition of my producer showcase. Portraying the transfer between 'early' and 'nustyle' hardstyle. So a nice balance of triplet climaxes and straight intro's.

This is a mix that I wanted to do for a loooong time. At the age of thirteen I fell in love with hardtrance and that never went away.

TRACKLIST: 01- Megara vs Lee - Full Intention (Club Mix) 02- Andy B. Jo...
