That they put 10 artists in one area, before 2020 that was normal :?

P.S. listen to dnb, they still got 1 hour or even more sets with banging tracklist :D
Yeah but most of those artists from Shockerz back then had 60 minute sets :+ and a few had 45 or 30.

Now 30-45 minutes seems to be the norm :(

can't speak on behalf of ceero but check out Geck-o's latest hardstyle sets, you'll see and hear why many people including me praise him ;)

some will also name Ben Nicky but I don't like his track selections

Qountdown 2008 Look Back was awesome, some parts of the Qreator mixes from Qlimax movie is mixed greatly aswell, but I guess thats some Ableton pre-mix or something like that, I would prefer this over 25 minutes of breaks and sing a longs with 5 minutes of hardstyle :)
i see you with my x-ray

I was just about to say this. In DnB the mixing is incredibly fast and you hear bunch of different tracks and styles during a set.
Make Hardstyle great again

It's not only Reverze, it's been like this on a lot of parties that happened lately. Shockerz being just one example of them.
Then it's easy, innit? Don't support it by buying tickets and/or listening to those sets.

I think shorter sets are a bad direction for hardstyle sets to go to, I can voice that - that's what this topic is for, right? ;) I can and will still enjoy events, just prefer longer sets.

Honestly, DJs can't be satisfied with that either, right :?

I mean, up and coming DJs probably won't have a say in this, but the established ones certainly must have. If they have like 3 or 4 bookings on a day I can imagine them not giving a shit about it, but only one booking and then for 30 minutes only? I remember my days at university; going to school for only one class of one hour wasn't gonna cut it, so I stayed home lol :+ :D

Guys there's not DJing anymore, I thought we all knew this. You have to be a producer first and foremost. Pioneer and Ableton/Virtual DJ already simplified playing music in front of a crowd.

But that's not my point, 30 minute sets are too short, that's my point :p

Another two-third majority for 4 years for Orbán and co, fourth time in a row. I didn't expect the six-party coalition to win but also not to lose like that.

I feel like no matter what you do, they cannot be beaten :(
