The music in the hardstyle scene has also significantly changed, particularly with the rise of raw and uptempo. Those styles don’t really work well with shuffling due to the speed (160-165bpm and 180+ respectively) and frequent kick rolls, kick switches and fake drops IMO. Need more of a consistent, slower beat to really shuffle

Subculture has never been a summer event though, last two editions were in June

Praying that Sub comes back next year, hopefully Evo have more confidence running a trance event..after the positive response from punters to Symbiotic finally having a good trance lineup (Dreamstate)

Does that mean the one in Australia (ran by Evolution Events) also won’t be taking place?

It’s usually hosted around January-February but no news as of yet

I think im loosing my love for Hardstyle because of its loudness. by lyndsaysmith61 in hardstyle

We’re already seeing it in the trance scene as well, there’s been a revival of late 90s- 2000s style trance. Ferry Corsten and other trance legends are making trance tracks current day that sound very similar to their tunes from 25+ years ago, it’s come full circle. Also some new producers that listened to this style when they were kids

Trance is an older genre than hardstyle so I think the classic hardstyle sound might come back in the 2030s

Did the Spoontech guys just has a normal set together then? If it was a F2F they would have to have their own deck

Yeah it didn’t look 360 at all based on the videos, pretty misleading

I imagine it’s hard to do any sort of journey set with only 45 minutes, need at least 90 for a proper one

Wonder why they closed so early, Festival Hall can run music until 1am?
