The Artists!
The Beholder
The Beholder has a history of successes that is virtually unique. No man has produced so many classics as this man. With this background it’s no wonder that his own labels have very high standards when it comes to putting releases on vinyl. So it may not be a surprise that he is label manager of Seismic Records together with his buddy Balistic.
As producer he is responsible for hardstyle classics like “Beholder & Balistic - Decibel anthem”, “The Beholder & Max Enforcer - Pulse Protraction” and “The Beholder & Balistic Feat. Max Enforcer - Bigger, Better, Louder! (Decibel 2004 Anthem)”. But also his remixes of “DJ Rob – Boy’s Interface” and “Geal - Losing my feeling”, and his recent releases together with DJ Zany like “Euphoria”, “Bleeding for the harder styles” and “The New God” are well known by all hardstyle lovers!
His advantage of being a producer becomes very clear during his sets. His gigs at events like the Decibel Outdoor Festival, Q-Base, Defqon.1 Festival and Hard Bass set new standards for hardstyle which many DJ’s try to follow. When The Beholder enters the stage, the crowd totally goes berserk during his performances. Expect only the newest, soon to be released, and highly exclusive tracks to be tested on you. He already knows you like them, this man makes no errors. He just wants to see how high you can jump when you hear them!

NEOPHYTE
Since 1993 this man is without a doubt one of the most innovative and creative hardcore producers on this planet. In 14 years of releasing tracks this man has been setting new standards over and over again, and is still doing so nowadays.
Even during the period hardcore was experiencing a lack of interest, Neophyte stood his ground and continued his hard work releasing nothing but quality records; a remarkable fact that could only be accomplished by true dedication to his music.
In 1999 DJ Neophyte started his own record label "Neophyte Records" DJ Neophyte's recipe for this label, 'pounding beats, tight arrangements, creative sample and synthesizer use, but always with a party-minded atmosphere', has proven to be successful ever since Neophyte Records 001 was released. DJ Neophyte has been responsible for many advanced, experimental tracks and countless hardcore floor fillers that appeared on this label.
Together with DJ Panic, DJ Neophyte is also responsible for the creative part of Rotterdam Records, Terror Traxx and Forze Records. Due to great effort and excellent management, these labels are still standing strong after many years.
His DJ performance proves his status as a true artist. His performances are always filled with new exclusive productions, combined with excellent mixing and great interaction with the crowd. DJ Neophyte will provide you with a dj set you will never forget; you will believe you have just had a glimpse of the future. A remarkable fact, given the history this man brings to the decks.
