Was a great set.

I haven't expected anything else to listen to: a pussy (Darren Styles), which has developed way too much self-confidence than it deserves! I don't want to blame Kutski: he simply just plays the music that is out there these days and Darren Styles still is a name that other people seem to adore.
I personally have liked a handful of tracks of him only, but to my personal opinion Darren Styles would be no big loss to this genre! I'd bet money on him to become the next Deadmou5!

@Warnman: You trolling? some serious hate in your words? If you don't like some sort of music there is no need to hate. I don't like one direction or what they are about but I don't waste time hating them :)

But then One direction is proclaiming to be the saviour of Happy Hardcore :P

Gammer is also getting a guestmix on KTRA very soon.

Lol, what makes Darren Styles a pussy? Or too self-confident? :P

It's a forum, opinions should be allowed. Darren Styles' music is alright, but he comes across as the Bieber of Hardcore - if that's what Warnman is insinuating.. That said, he is from Clacton. I packed my job in to avoid that cesspit.
The mix is alright, but I've never really supported KTRA, and I've never heard anything that's made me much of a fan of Kutski. His show never really pulled in the new listeners in the UK that the scene expected, and it's not much wonder that he lost his position at BBC with that in mind. He has a certain cult following, but it still feels like a bit of a blown opportunity to make Hardcore a bigger contender in the industry. To balance that statement out, his shared mix on Bonkers 16 and HU4 were both brilliant.

Hello Silver,
Yes, I have to confess that I am a person, who likes to post its radical opinions and sometimes even drastic point of views! These days I haved developed being completely disgusted by sharing warm words to people, who simpy don't deserve such - and Darren Styles is one of them! I don't dislike the person Darren Styles and all his efforts that this guy has invested to Rave Music during the last decades, but I totally hate his productions he has published since many many years ago! To my personal opinion they are useless and complete nonsense to be able to push the sound of Hardcore!
I expect producers of such an unerrated genre to simply notice this development and to stop any kind of ego trips and share their passion for this music in unity instead. All other ravers are able to do it in their own individual kind of way, but many producers seem to have a problem with it!
This world doesn't respect our music, because we simply are unable to respect ourselves!

First of all: my statement that Darren Syles is a pussy is simply my own personal point of view! His self-confidence seem to has grown way too much than he musically deserves. Years of having spent the days at the top seem to have changed his attitude (at least what I have noticed on the internet)!
I've already mentioned that I totally respect his influence within' this genre in the past, but otherwise I dislike his productions and the way this guy is trying to take influence on this scene these days! Only the opinions of us - the ravers on the dancefloor - should be worth enough getting considered as fruitful critisism! Where is the self-critisism within the Rave Scene? All they do is to encourage each other in whatever the f**k they are doing at he moment! I havn't noticed any other developments so far at all!
Kindly clarify if I am totally wrong over here or do wrong to Darren Styles! I am very liberal for any open-minded kind of discussion!

Well, I dont think he has dropped the soap as much as you have :P

While I don't like everything Styles makes, he's a fab producer and in my opinion is the best DJ/producer that UK Hardcore/Happy Hardcore has ever made!
In my raving prime (apart from Kev Energy sets) his sets would be the ones I would most look forward to.

I'm not sure what your interpretation of the word 'pussy' is. I can appreciate English is not your first language but the word tends to imply a "scared" or "wimpy" attitude. I wouldn't say anything shows Darren in that kind of light, lol.
I also wouldn't say he shows himself to be too self-confident on his social media. I had to go to his Twitter profile to see becaue I never really notice him in my feed. He makes posts about what he's doing a lot, just like any musician who has a lot of fans. If you want to see self-absorbed, look at Kanye West. I think we know who's more down to earth. xD
I can't say I really listen to, or care for, much of his music recently, but I just don't understand where your interpretations of his character stem from. :P

BTW I haven't read the thread or listened to the mix ;)

other than kuski's part, it's basicly what you'd expect of a DS or Gammer set. EDM carbon copies

lol @ the people getting all pissy over a terrible mix that's SUPPOSED to be terrible. When you try and cram as many tracks as you can in 30 minutes when you're a DJ that's never been known to mix quickly it won't sound pretty at all. This isn't much different than what everyone else does for a guest mix on podcasts. The HU podcast have featured many of these type of mixes, but luckily the majority of them sound better than this one.
That being said, the tracklist on this mix is uninspiring. Oh goodie, a You're My Angel remix/update that no one asked for and only goes to show that you have less original work to offer because you're running out of ideas. Adding vocals to screwface just ruined that track. I don't know if those lyrics came from some other track or they were created for the track, but it does not sound good at all! I can't believe I'm saying this, but I rather have the asshole that is MC Storm rant over that track than those lyrics! Everything else just sounds like he's trying to mimic everything that Gammer has been doing as of late.
The only redeeming thing about that mix is Rest Of Your Life. Absolutely love that track.

i enjoyed it

The type of tune that keeps me interested in hardcore, such a buzz listening to it. Technokore done a tune with these lyrics but the riff in the styles version is awesome.
