DJ HIXXY shows how he has remained one of the top dogs of the rave scene with another fascinating journey through the ups and downs of his career and the hardcore genre.
Starting with happy hardcore in a perilous state at the turn of the century, the DJ, producer and promoter – AKA IAN HICKS – talks about the disaster that was HELTER SKELTER Millennium Jam, how his trance-influenced RAVER BABY label helped the rebirth of happy hardcore, explains where the term ‘UK Hardcore’ originated, and revisits his success putting on events under the HTID brand.
Plus, despite Ian being sick of the questions regarding the re-release of the Raver Baby’s back catalogue, we push him on that burning question so many of you wanted to know…
The fourth and final part is coming your way next WEDNESDAY ahead of a rare interview with legendary ORANGE/ISOTONIK DJ, producer, popstar and promoter, CHRIS PAUL…who’s got bags of great stories to tell.
Before then, we will be finding out Ian’s hated Choon 101(which may or may not feature some of his own tracks!) in some more extra content that our MEMBERS RECEIVED FIRST!
