I think, if you just put asides the fact The Qreator has no own music and you just visit/listen to his sets for going to a DJ-set, not for going to your favourite artist/brand - just for experiencing a DJ-set only, he really nails it imo.

For example his Qlimax 2021 set has a lot of 'forgotten tracks', he doesn't only play the well-known classics, but knows how to build a DJ-set and spice things up. He fills the gap that's been created since DJ's/producers basically became their own brands, playing only their own music + music of their close colleague's.

For well-mixed, well-thought DJ-sets with unexpected tracks, he's actually a good addition to the scene imo. Well done Q.
not only a dj set. basically a show act which qdance can decide what they do with it and that at the end opens new opportunity's show wise. i really like that.

Listened to the new Rooler x Sickmode EP and I legitimately thought it was a parody of Hardstyle, the fuck is that

Care to explain what's wrong with those tracks?

Lackluster drops, average-at-most kicks, reverse basses sound so bad and weak I almost think they're actually mocking it, melodies are at most generic, the Uptempo track is trash, the skits at the end are not funny when you have them on every damn track.

And I say that who really enjoys some Xtra Raw artists (Riot Shift, Ncrypta, Anderex...) but honestly those two guys got to be the most overrated producers within the scene since a very long time

Sorry I know this topic is for unpopular opinions but I disagree so hard (especially the last part). With their The Gang set they did the absolute best set of the evening (imo) and they showed that xtra raw mixes well with fun/melodies, the production quality of their tracks also is good, last act I'd call underrated is them (especially Rooler, he has proven himself bigtime over the years).

Edit: he's also one of the very few that can actually mix well and creatively.

Rooler and Sickmode just make non serious hardstyle. They just make what they feel like :)

People either dig simple party stuff or they don't.

It's not my style but nothing for me to cry over.

Unpopular opinion while we're at it (even though I've disliked making these through the course of this topic LOL)

Malice solo is far better than Sickmode stuff imo _O_

This doesn't seem too unpopular, everyone loved his stuff when it was just Rooler
