The other day I was on Soundcloud (like most days, if truth be told), and I found a mix which was shared. At this stage you are probably thinking 'TCD, tell us something new', but there's nothing new to mention. Maybe one tiny thing: I've been on this oldschool Hardcore buzz for a few weeks, and this is a Hardstyle/Rawstyle mix. It's been a while since I last heard a mix with big bangers in it. And it's been mixed by a newcomer in my books: Lizhard. That's an interesting and cool name. But is the name important? Nope, it's the mix that matters.
And her first solo mix is now on Soundcloud, and already has got raving reviews. But as she's new (as far as I can tell), there's nothing to mention about her. She's new, and she's got a cool name. And she loves Hardstyle/Rawstyle. Oh, and she also had a mix featured on the mighty Monkey Kong Soundcloud channel. That's a good sign.
Her first solo mix contains the finest and hardest Hardstyle anthems out there, all with a euphoric vibe surrounding it. Yes, the beats will come flying at you, but the melody will take you on another journey. You feel like you are in another dimension. I just love euphoric Hardstyle, don't you?
So her first solo mix. I hope that my review is going to be pleasant enough for her. But I think she will like the review, as I'm already impressed by the tracklist, and the amount of tracks crammed into a 45 minute short mix. 23, to be precise. But which anthems are in here? Well, these:
Coone & Joe Killington - Painkiller
Phuture Noize - The Aftershock
Bestia - Solar System
Da Tweekaz & D-Sturb - Anything (2021 Edit)
MYST - The Path We Take
Cold Confusion - Awaken
Adaro - A Deeper Space
D-Attack - Born For This
Cold Confusion - Drop That Beat
Warface - Blow The Speakers
Warface - Control The Soul
Sound Rush & D-Sturb - Embracing The Madness
D-Sturb - Fire & Blood
Act Of Rage - Raveline
Adaro & Vertile - Walk With Me
E-Force & Bloodlust - Death Blow
Bloodlust - Samurave
Killshot - Horrorshow
Killshot & The Straikerz - Here We Go Again
Crossfight - Crisis Evolved
E-Force & Luna - The Power
Minus Militia - The Code Of Conduct
Radical Redemption - Dominator Tribute
This is a very good looking tracklist. Therefore, this mix can not have a negative score, or anything below 2,5 stars. The tracklist is gorgeous, and if you love your Hardstyle, you will agree with me. So many dancefloor demolishing anthems. These are the tracks you want to hear at big events such as Defqon.1, Decibel, and more. Good selection Lizhard.
To me this shows that Lizhard has got a good set of ears, and knows exactly what the listeners wants to hear. The more euphoric, the better. Her selection of tracks brings the fire into our living rooms. My living room? Well, it's lit! And the car journey earlier was dominated by this bass ridden mix. The journey was short, but the music coming out of my speakers made me happy. Sorry people in Enfield if I annoyed you with my music. Blame Lizhard.
I can only provide positive feedback based on the anthems. The only tiny thing I would want to see change is the length of tracks. Some are played too short, and she's very eager to jump to the next track. Does that make any sense?
It was difficult to choose a favourite record in this mix, and I boiled it down to two records: 'Fire & Blood' by D-Sturb and 'Control The Soul' by Warfare. Two seriously insane monster anthems. Goosebumps galore!
Check Lizhard out. If her next few mixes will be as good as this one, she will bring the fire!
Ps. I am Dutch, hence the title of this website, but what the fuck does the title of this mix mean? 'Hagediscoklappers'? WTF?
