But when I heard the original song in the context of remixing for the album, I immediately wanted to pitch it up and make a happy hardcore rave edit with an EPIC trance breakdown...
So, that's the story! And now go enjoy the remix!!!
Hardcore became very popular, and with all the attention came a negative general opinion. Which made me ashamed of liking the music, none of my friends in high school listened to it "because it was for nazis and junkies".
I had no idea it was for raves, that people did drugs. I just loved the energy that came from those early compilation CD's (and being a little teenage boy, I loved the corny scary artwork on the thunderdome cd’s!)
I went into an old obsession that I was embarassed about for years: I used to love happy hardcore and gabber when I was a little 11 year old Thys. I was in awe of the power of the music and the energy of the sounds.
The concept of the album is: "what would you say to yourself if you could speak to yourself as a child?"
I chose to remix his song with Kucka, which speaks about self-acceptance and hope.
AND WOULD YOU BELIEVE IT MUSIC FRIENDS!
Another day, another release!
On his birthday, Machinedrum released the remixes for his album 3for82.
ANOTHER RELEASE! My third in 4 weeks. I love when it's release season!
This time I'm teaming up with Nikki Nair & Kelbin to finally deliver the long awaited Cheese Interface (that bouncey ball track) and The Wasp (that stingy electro tune).

Admin hack: if you buy music professionally (on bandcamp for instance) getting yourself gift cards with big amounts means way less work declaring the expenses.
I just buy 100 euros worth of credit and then I can buy a lot of tunes, but just one email has to go to the accountants.
Lol. Kidding. Just something funny that I noticed they all do.
All good, I know these kinds of formatting frames are helpful to structure something you’re making, and more so if these frames are memetically shared by more/most makers.
YouTuber: blablablablabla. And then always the audacity to say “without further ado, let’s jump right in”. Wtf just skip the ado if you wanna jump right in?
Nobody’s forcing your initial ado.
So stop it with the “without further ado”.

My resolution for 2025: not becoming a video-focused social media character in order to promote a career in music.
I will share some opinions here, and I'll try to promote shows and releases despite the algos tanking any attempt to promo.
But my creative energy goes into music, not social content.
