[lurl="/records/record_artistprofile.asp?action=artistdisplay&artistinfoid=25"]Scott Brown[/lurl] (UK)
Scott Brown is undoubtedly one of the most important figures to come out of the Scottish music scene and is now rightfully known as one of Britain’s No.1 Hardcore DJs. His unique sound helped put Scotland and dozens of other hardcore artists on the world hardcore scene. As well as producing hardcore, Scott has hit the charts a number of times with his band 'q-tex'. Scott spends most of his life in the recording studio where he has produced tracks for labels all over the world including Neophyte, Traxtorm, Rotterdam Records, Mokum, Baby Boom, Industrial Strength, VHU, Happy Traxx, and so on.....
[lurl="/records/record_artistprofile.asp?action=artistdisplay&artistinfoid=975"]Rob Gee[/lurl] (USA)
Few DJs can play music that hits hard as hell and moves a crowd to dance. Few can write original songs that make you want to sing. Only a special artist can play live in front of 1 million people. ROB GEE can do all this and more…
GEE's history of DJing and live performance shows his dedication to bringing electronic music to a wide variety of listeners. GEE's love of hip-hop, breakdance, techno and metal set him apart from the rest. While other DJs make tracks, ROB GEE writes original songs, such as the acclaimed, "Ecstasy You Got What I Need". While others are just spinning records, GEE is a true entertainer who keeps bringing delirious audiences back for more.
[lurl="/records/record_artistprofile.asp?action=artistdisplay&artistinfoid=36"]MARK BREEZE[/lurl] (UK)
Ever since he can remember, Mark Breeze (a.k.a Breeze) has possessed a natural love and flare for music. Having enjoyed his first immersion into the world of the dance scene during the tender age of 15, it was in 1985 that Mark was drawn into the studio with a rap artist, who at the time was working closely with Double Trouble’s Leigh Guest and Michael Menson. The end product was a track that was to be engineered by the infamous Double Trouble at Noisegate Studio’s, London.
After this initial taste of the music industry, the realisation hit home that nothing else could ever come close to the fulfilment and buzz that was involved in producing quality music and ever since then there has been no looking back.
His first residency which helped contribute to the foundations of modern day dance music as we know it, was at the much acclaimed Langtry’s club in Beckenham, Kent. His prerogative – to instil a fresh, new, fast and frenzied electronic dance music to the clubbing scene. This style was to become known as Acid House and went on to send shock waves throughout the music scene, permanently changing clubbing culture forever.
During this time the dance scene literally exploded and Breeze continued to enjoy DJing and paving the way with the latest, most energetic and ground breaking styles to become a crowd puller in his own right, thus marking his name as a firm favourite with regular promoters, such as Taste, Fruit and Sweat to name just a few. This exposure and ever increasing popularity made Mark “hot property” throughout the dance scene, enabling him to develop permanent contracts with leading “big fish” promoters such as GodsKitchen after moving to Northampton in 1994.
[lurl="/records/record_artistprofile.asp?action=artistdisplay&artistinfoid=57"]DARREN STYLES[/lurl] (UK)
Encouraged from an early age by his father, an avid blues fan, Darren had always possessed a passionate craving for music. Many late nights were spent enthusiastically mastering his natural ability on the keyboard, engineering it into an undisputed skill whilst developing his own style, ever inspired by Dance music.
Armed with this passion and well-earned musical talent, this 16 year old with serious ambition was to become one of the biggest ever names in the Hardcore arena.
At every available opportunity, Darren and 2 friends could be found making original tracks in the music studio and at school lunch times, the 3 of them, under the name “The Evolution” would hold mini-raves in the school hall - along with strobes, smoke machines, their own tunes and even someone walking round with a bucket for charity donations! …Little did he know where it would take him!
In 1992, during a wintry February night out in Clacton-on-Sea, Essex, Darren had his first “hands on” experience of the then underground rave scene - the venue being none other than the un-forgettable “Oscars Nightclub” situated on Clacton Pier. This initial exposure instigated a desire to be at the heart of such a community, and since that rainy February evening, Darren has never looked back…
In 1993, Darren, had already gained much experience from a raver’s perspective, and alongside his diverse musical knowledge and curiosity, he found himself wanting to experiment with “the decks”. After saving the proceeds from a Saturday job stacking shelves in a supermarket, he became the proud owner of a second hand record collection (many of which are now true classics!) alongside some brand new Technics 1210’s. Needless to say, the combination of natural musical ability and a taste in vinyl, which echoed the dancers lust, culminated in an aspiring and highly motivated young DJ with seemingly effortless mixing skills. Later on in ‘93, he clambered further up the musical ladder, when he grabbed an opportunity to impress the owner of the aforementioned “Oscars Nightclub” with his DJ’ing, and in a bid for a residency, rightfully walked away with the job!
Following a chance meeting at Oscars that same year, his budding hardcore collective “The Evolution” formed an alliance with local hardcore legacy, DJ Force (Paul Hobbs). The resulting production entitled “Fall Down On Me” (by DJ Force and Evolution) was to be released on the “old-skool” acclaimed Kniteforce Records, and went on to become an anthem of it’s time. Very soon after, their efforts were finding their own way from the school dinner hall, into record boxes up and down the country – and maybe most significantly of all, the record box of the then hardcore master, DJ Carl Cox!
Musically, Darren and Paul were evolving fast, and eventually, the two of them agreed to team up, and “go it alone” without the remaining 2 members of “The Evolution”. This shrewd decision ignited a spark, and the two became the legendary duo with the Midas touch, the possibly biggest ever act on the happy hardcore scene, Force and Styles.

Promoters must like Rob Gee. I haven't had a chance to hear his set yet, so maybe this time. With Scott Brown and Breeze and Styles, looks like a good night.
