And to think of it the guy is only 18...... Must have a hell of a future in front of him...
It's pretty special how in the last two years names like Dark by Design, Technikal, Nuw Idol are getting through to the hardtrancelisteners. At least untill around 2004 I didn't heared about last two (DbD, yes)....
Because, whatever you can say Germany has been the leading hardtrancecountry for SO long. And now hardtrance is dying a slow and painfull death there. The dj's go trance (Cosmic Gate) or hardstyle (Gary D., DJ Dean) or cheese (Ralph Fridge). Uberdruck left Tracid Traxxx for being to commercial. DuMonde is responsible for the composing some Jamster/Jamba ringtones and they are starting to experiment with house, Flutlicht already saw it coming and called it a day, Scot Project stated that hardtrance is a dying genre in Germany and you hear it everywhere, many hardtranceartists are losing their touch. From Derb is nothing left, everyone moans about DuMonde's shift in style (I like it....but I can imagine people miss the old sound) and many labels haven't got any quality releases in ages.
And with the lack of quality coming from Germany, it's amazing how many quality there is coming from the UK lately. Everything is Technikal and Dark by Design lately. Names who were around for a long time, always standing in the shadow of the almighty German producers, like P.H.A.T.T., JK Walker, Tommy Pulse, are stepping out.
The 'UK hardhouse' matured and the German hardtrance slowly fades.....
This is my longest post on TA ever.... I probably get flamed....
