Welcome to a new edition of Hardtrance Classics! Once again I've chosen to showcase a true hardtrance/-style pioneer. The one and only Italian harddance master: Luca Antolini!

So many great productions, I don't even know where to start. Lots of those you can also find in my 'Saifam Speciale' mixes. Luca (co-)produced many early hardstyle bangers. Artists used alot more aliases back then. It wasn't always obvious who made what tracks. (still isn't, lol!)

For this mix I focused on the hardtrance side of Luca. The era I picked the tracks from range from about 2001 till 2005.

Tracklisting:

01- Giada - Song For A Princess (Luca Antolini DJ Remix)

02- Luca Antolini - Secret Dream (Original Vocal Mix)

03- Atlantic Wave - Kataklisma (Luca Antolini Original Mix)

04- Pacific Link - Rings Of Jupiter (Luca Antolini DJ Remix)

05- Luca Antolini - Heat (Original Hardtrance Mix)

06- Spiritual Project - Any More (Luca Antolini DJ Remix)

Another Scot Project showcase! Scot released some amazing bangers the last couple of months. Reviving hardtrance in a way not heard before! A pioneer as always; would we expect anything less? :D

The first half of the mix are the recently released tracks. The second half are some of his older tunes; all hard stuff! Fits great together IMO.

I hope you'll enjoy these tracks as much as I do!

New mix alert!! A follow up in my series of showcases about the Saifam labels (BLQ, Dance Pollution, Green Force, Red Alert & Titanic records). Productions by artists like Technoboy, Tuneboy, Luca Antolini, Ricky T etc.

2003 is a special year for me since it's the year I think hardstyle was born. Most of the things before had more trance or acid influences. It was also the year I picked up DJ'ing AND the year I discovered a program called Soulseek (p2p sharing) which blew my mind back then! :D Suddenly all these full length versions of tracks were available to me. It fired my passion for the music even more. AND it was the year I started to go to many awesome hardstyle parties!

Enough talk! Please enjoy this hard and fast mix (152 BPM!)

Analogic Disturbance is an alias from the Italian masters Davide Sonar and Julian DJ. These guys made so many bangers back in the days! People who follow me probably know I'm still a big fan of Davide!

A short note: I left out some tracks like Hunting 1 (still partly present in the Lunateck track), Trashin' Madness remix (just couldn't fit it in) and maybe some other Limpar tracks (too trancy). Hope you won't mind! ;)

Welcome to my showcase of Yoji Biomehanika's early works. I picked tracks from 2005 and before because this was the time early hardstyle really matured. The hardtrance influences are heavy in these tracks. You could also call it hardtrance with early hardstyle influences! ;) Yoji truly is one of the pioneers of the harder styles!

TRACKLIST:

01- Yoji Biomehanika - Hardstyle Disco

02- Yoji Biomehanika - Never End (Derler & Klitzing Remix)

10- Yoji Biomehanika - Never End (Exclusive Groove Edit)

11- Mauro Picotto - Iguana (Yoji Biomehanika Hellhouse Remix)

12- IK - X-Bass (Yoji with MC Magika Hardstyle Remix)

Please enjoy!

P.S. : I know I snuck in some remixes from other artists. They fit the Yoji style so well I couldn't resist! :D

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 linked to nustyle that I could easily put 90 minutes of tracks together. Next to that it's very melodic. A huge contrast with early hardstyle. I still enjoy it though!

01- Zanza Labs - Control The Mind (Abject Remix)

02- Tuneboy - Dirty (Wildstylez Remix)

03- Project One - The Story Unfolds
