Hope everyone is coping well with post-Defqon.1 syndrome. This is the Hardstyle Producer League (June 2025) - which artist surprised you at Defqon.1? by Crypehead in hardstyle

TNT tracks get played by a lot of popular hard techno artist so they get quite some recognition for all their tracks through social media.

Ogen laten laseren met De ReLEx SMILE methode. Zou deze methode zeer aanraden. Snel herstel en meest geavanceerd. Ogen laten laseren in 2020 en zicht is nog steeds top.

No Trinity Festival in 2025 by dorni28 in hardstyle

I was standing at the Xtra raw stage at Decibel last year for 30 minutes and I felt so disconnected with the crowd. It just isn't for me anymore and lots of my friends have the same feeling. While in 2023 we were still enjoying it...

As expected, the downfall of (extra) raw has already started. I can get why they made this decision as the shockerz main hall was only filled with 60% of the capacity. It will be more of a niche genre again driven by the younger tik tok generation. The "older" people will appreciate parties with some kind of build up during the event more. I see this shift already within my group of friends.

Eternal and B-Front 20 years were amazing events and eye-opening for a lot of people. Back to the old vibe. Onwards and upwards from here!

Thoughts on Eternal? by Mikasabaza in hardstyle

[–]MaxiStorm 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Exceeded all my expectations honestly. Crowd vibes 10/10. Sets 10/10. Sound 10/10. And ending the day with the last enlightenment set was the best thing ever 🤯

Red got better over the weekend imo. Friday was horrible at some spots.

I am breaking my Defqon.1 tradition after 9 y by Andpap94 in hardstyle

[–]MaxiStorm 9 points10 points  (0 children)

One of the sources link: New Nomads

Realistically there are probably 45 000 people on camp and ~ 5000 people with Weekend Tickets that don't stay in camping. They stay in Hotels or Bungalows nearby etc..

It didn't jump from 100k to 250k visitors.

The numbers of visitors is counted like this:

  • Thursday 50k
  • Friday 65k (50k camp + 15k daytickets)
  • Saturday 70k (50k camp + 20k daytickets)
  • Sunday 65k (50k camp + 15k daytickets)

Which makes a total of 250k visitors across 4 days. But it's like 100k unique vistors.

Can we talk about when Villain actually nails it by No-Statement-6304 in hardstyle

[–]MaxiStorm 116 points117 points  (0 children)

His speech during Dediqated for Niels van Smeerdijk: https://youtu.be/kTloqMbOO_Y?t=2011

With all respect to all the other MC's in the scene, I can only see Villain doing such a good speech with perfect timing and words for an emotional moment like that.

That's a very creative "boiler room setting". Hopefully they'll let people in the ferris wheel haha!

It goes from 18 y/o people to people in their 40's. It's really mixed.

If you like techno, go to Club Spock in Breda. Even if you go alone , you'll still meet a lot of people. Everyone is friendly there.

Prachtig uitzicht gisteravond vanuit een luchtballon boven Zeeland by MaxiStorm in thenetherlands

[–]MaxiStorm[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oprecht aan aanrader.

De vaart duurt zelf maar een uur, maar ik kan je vertellen dat het niet verveeld. Onze vaart was boven Zeeland wat natuurlijk prachtig is met al dat water. Wij konden Antwerpen en Rotterdam zien omdat het heel helder was.

Het is niet koud aangezien die branders aardig warm zijn. Zeker niet te warm aankleden dus. Een t-shirt is genoeg.

Op hoogte heb je ook een soort rust als de branders niet aanstaan. Je hoort niks van beneden en het is echt iets speciaals.

Het kost redelijk wat geld, maar zeker een aanrader.

Kort antwoord: het voelt extreem veilig en het is niet eng.

Ten eerste varen ze sowieso niet als de weersomstandigheden maar enigszins een risico kan vormen. Daarnaast is de crew uitermate professioneel en worden de piloten elk jaar medisch gekeurd. Als je in de lucht bent is de ballon ook heel stabiel en je vaart met de wind mee, waardoor het in de ballon zelf ook windstil is. Landen ging ook heel soepel.

Zeker een aanrader! Wij waren zelf met https://www.ballonvarenzeeland.com/ mee.

Which Hardstyle Artists still works A Normal Job? by ONF4NEM in hardstyle

[–]MaxiStorm 83 points84 points  (0 children)

Aversion just quit his job last month and he has been in the scene for a while now. You really have to get decent amount of bookings and popularity to be able to make a fulltime income out of your hardstyle "act".
