Beholder & Zany, The* - Bleeding For The Harder Styles - 19-Aug-08 06:41 AM
I found this release very disappointing to be honest. DJ Zany is one of the most finest and most notable hardstyle DJ's in the scene and most of his work is usually appealing, this term also applies to The Beholder (aka Neophyte, his hardcore alias). This duo has teamed up since 2006 and since then all their releases have been top notch in quality.
However, I have noticed the hardstyle quality has declined these last few years and this record is a distinct example of what hardstyle has become. The melody is commercial, mainstream and to make matters worse, it has annoying and unnecessary vocals which does not fit the track at all. If you thought the recent hardstyle anthems were a disgrace, then you might want to avoid this disaster.
The second track also disappointed me, pretty much what I summed up above, and this track did not needed to be remixed at any cause.
