nice! the hardstyle in that period of time was best hardstyle so far. today's hardstyle seems way too commercialised to me, it actually is more trance/dance music then hardstyle these days...
It's still hardstyle, though, because of the kick and basslines and whatnot. But yes, hardstyle is a lot more euphoric than it was for about 7 years ago. Even though it seems commercialised, it's still bloody awesome at festivals such as DQ1, Decibel, etc. Going to Defqon.1 this year... so
niiiice DQ1 is best! i'd love to go this year, but yeah...money doesn't grow on trees you know. i already bought my tickets to free festival next month, and i really want to go to indicator next week. also qlimax and dominator.... so yeah
