Gearbox presents Desudo's Birthday special @ HardStation.fm
For my birthday I have arranged a Gearbox special. I have decided to ask various dj's ranging from New up and coming talents to well recognised names, dj's who have helped me progress as a dj myself and Regular hardstation names.
The night will follow a typical Gearbox path as it starts with some tech trance and progresses through hard trance and ends with hardsyle.
Thursday The 4th Of November
14.00 - DJ Practice
15.00 - Brian Hayes
16.00 - Lee Mac
17.00 - Loony
18.00 - John Cove
19.00 - Stana & Desudo
20.00 - KloneZ
21.00 - Tonic Wasterz
22.00 - Geck-O
23.00 - Pithune
Brian Hayes
Our first dj has only been mixing for 7 months but has shown incredible promise and I'm delighted to give him his first airplay as his drive, devotion and love for the music is utterly incredible. Brian will spin an hour of the best new tech trance going at the moment.
Lee Mac
Lee also hails from Ireland and is another name to look out for. His mixes incorporate a perfect blend of nice tech trance and banging hard trance. As well as being a skilled dj, his productions never sound out of place when being played alongside some of the most banging tunes out there at the moment.
Loony
Loony has been an inspiration to me and has helped me improve as a dj over the past year and a half. His excellent track choice and excellent mixing skills finally paid off earlier this year as he landed a residency as Glasgow's Soundhaus and has played alongside some huge names in the hard dance seen.
John Cove
When I first started listening to hardstyle John's show on Hardshockers.fm is one I tried to catch as much as possible. As a regular Thursday night resident of Hardstation.fm, I thought it only fair that he also spins an hour for us.
Desudo & Stana
I am absolutely delighted and honoured to be mixing with Swedish Tech Maniac Stana. Stana has given himself instant Legendary status within the Tech Trance genre after he burst onto the scene in 2008 on the Darksquad and Theracords labels. Stana's talent was recognised instantly and it didn't take long before he was rewarded with a gig at Defqon.1 and his set was defiitely one of the best of 2010's event. I will start the mix off with some older tech trance tracks that got me into this style in the first place.
KloneZ
One of the best prospects on the Kiddfectious label is Canadian DJ KloneZ. He is making a great name for himself within hard trance with some great releases and fantastic remixes - including his remix of Kiddstock Theme 2010 which I regard as the best of the bunch. He is making a serious impression within Europe which we can see from his recent appearance on Fausto's Crossover Show. Tonic WasterzMyself and Crysonic will then spin an hour of various genres in a track packed mix that has a little something for everyone.
Geck-O
Geck-O has established himself a the golden child of Theracords records with massive releases such as Smasher, Full Force and his most recent release alongside DJ Thera - Hysteria. Geck-O is not only a fantastic producer and huge prospect for the future but he is also an excellent dj who's tracklists never cease to amaze.
El Grekoz
These talented lads from Greece are making great tracks in hardstyle and they have various record labels interested in them. Knockout Beats released what is probably their best record to date - Kayem and El Grekoz - Dance Like A Pro. El Grekoz are firm favourites of the show and I'm delighted to have them mix for my birthday.
Pithune
Everyone knows the talents of Pithune already as he has been mixing online for years and various different stations that include Fear.FM, Real Hardstyle Radio and now Hardstation.FM. Pithune has been a big influence over the past year as he has given me a lot of feedback and advice as a dj. I feel his talents as a producer -
