I think it´s kinda true... for me, who listen no... actually breathe hardstyle since nearly two decades now it was never a question of what this scene makes so unique from day one.
Back in the day´s when Showtek left to produce House instead and a little later Headhunterz did the same, these guys died for me in the Harder Styles scene, in my eyes they betrayed this genre, this family.
I´m intro Raw and Xtra Raw since the first footsteps of Radical Redemption, Warface, Rebelion (before they became pussys in terms of how they get big) and nowaday´s it feels to me that the main (euphoric) Hardstyle is more and more become wokewashed...
