At just 21 it’s fair to say he’s ‘been around’ if you take into consideration his achievements over the past 18 months. His passion for music, in particular his love of all things house, has helped this multi-talented producer climb his way to the top. Hardwell’s overall talent is recognised by the dance music industry as a new, exciting and refreshing take on a scene that continues to evolve and with an apparent everlasting shelf life! “Guess What”, a recent co-production with Chuckie, is likely to be one of the most played underground house records of the past two years, his “Show Me Love vs. Be” bootleg of Steve Angello and Sebastien Ingrosso’s track was one of the biggest dance hits of last year and “MRKRSTFT” has been included in almost all of the house compilations of 2008. On top of this pronounced success stories, Hardwell has also topped the leading Dutch chart ‘Dance-Tunes.com’ a grand total of 6 times in the past 12 months. He has also taken up remix duties for artists such as Chris Lake, Funkerman, Laidback Luke, Sharam (Deep Dish), Steve Angello, Booty Luv and Hi_Tack amongst others…need we go on? Behind the decks Hardwell never fails to deliver, his exceptional technical skills, variety of music and that added personal touch make him stand out, and he’s ready to bring this to the masses. There’s a new kid on the block, and he’s here to stay. | |
