Desudo kicks off the night with a massive mix that celebrates the birth of brand new label Gearbox Digital. With 2 brand new tracks from the label being played out for the first time, this mix is full of brand new tracks with some excellent forgotten tracks from the past few years. Be sure to tune into this mix to check out the brand new Gearbox Digital material.

Chris Dynasty is Australia's tech dance god and for good reason too. With massive hard trance bangers like Don't Waste The Bass, Chris has shown a real talent in producing minimal techno influenced tracks with a harder edge. His style is very apparent with his mixing too. You will definitely not be disappointed by this mix. Also, if you tune in you will hear his brand new releases for Analogue Is Dead, to be released later this year.

Pred is back again with another massive mix that incorporates almost all aspects of the hard dance scene right now. With tracks from excellent names such as Kujin Fu, Evanti, Gatty, Tranz-Linquants and Josh Lang, Pred really delivers on a mixture of different styles. Also stay tuned to his mix to hear his brand new release for Tranztek.

DJ Practice is one of the most talented Australian DJ's as he manages to blend a whole host of different styles in a dynamite and jam packed set full of the best, the hardest, the filthiest and the most unexpected tunes you'll hear in an hour. Sit back and enjoy while Practice takes you on a journey thorugh the harder sounds!

20.00 - Agami Mosh
21.00 - DJ W
22.00 - Drivium
23.00 - SickMan


Agami Mosh is really starting to make a name for himself in the tech dance scene right now after working on a good few collaborations with Antadecent Life and soon to be working on a collab with Ukraines SickMan for the Gearbox Label. There is a lot of undiscovered talent coming from this producer year. Watch out for this name.

DJ W is also a brand new name to the hard trance scene that has been making a massive name for himself, especially after he dominated the trackitdown charts with his pounding remix of Max Savietto's Loop Hole. This is another name that you should expect to see on the Gearbox label soon!

Drivium are just off the back of producing a beatufiul release for the Therabyte label which uses samples from that famous scene in Reservoir Dogs when Michael Madsen goes on an ear cutting mission. This track retains the dark nature of this scene in an absolutely thumping track that you cant help but pay attention to when it comes on. This set is a techno influenced monster that shifts bpms pretty heavily half way through the mix to take you on a real journey.

And Finally we have the tech dance master SickMan who's tracks have been getting harder and harder and could soon be described as pure Schranz if he keeps going the way he is going. This is going to be another heart stopping mix with full force power and mega number of drum kicks.

21.00 - Desudo
22.00 - Danny V
23.00 - Busho & Louk


Lee Mac continues his onslaught on the hard dance world by furthering his career in a big way. It seems like every time Lee has a new mix he has exciting news to broadcast and it doesn't bigger than the news we have for our resident now. Lee Mac has only gone and got himself a gig at Defqon.1 hasn't he?!?!? sensational news for the man from Ireland. Also, we await his massive release of NanoTech on Gearbox Digital. look out for this release on trackitdown where it will be exclusive as from the 12th of April. In this mix we have a couple of new remixes for Digitally Infected and for AID. Big time excited for this set!

Desudo is back with another mix and why not when he continues to be sent Grade A productions for the gearbox Label. This mix will see new tracks massive and unbelievably quality tracks from Dermot Bateman, Johann Stone, David Rust, Azat and a few classics thrown in for good messure.

Polish hard trance sensational Danny V is back on Gearbox with a massive mix of Hard Trance classics! Danny V really is the epitome of classic Hard Trance in the current day in age. He has unlimited skill as he produces all sorts of monsters ranging from tech trance beauts to rasping hard trancers. This mix is one not to be missed!

Ending the show are two more legends of the hard trance world Busho and Louk. These two have had a massive influence in the scene and are highly regarded as two of the best professionals in the business. Both running two of the most successful labels out now and producing some of the best material to be heard, they are not short on talent, and this mix taken from a recent live gig, does nothing but prove their talent.

20.00 - Johann Stone
21.00 - David Rust
22.00 - Dermot Bateman
23.00 - Loony


Johann Stone is one of the worlds best talents right now. His incredible cross breed sound is perfect for both a trance set or a hard trance set which is why his productions are just so popular right now. Having already received support from Armin Van Buuren in the trance world and names like Thilo and Evanti in the hard trance world, this lads future is looking incredibly bright. Especially since some of his productions will be coming from the Gearbox Digital label!

David Rust is another artist who is really on top of his game right now. This year he has 3 incredible productions waiting to be released on the Gearbox Label, Rave Me and also on Virus Audio, also receiving remixes from 3 of his favourite producers in the world riht now, Johann Stone, Diablik and Audiowarp. Watch out for David this year as he is a man on a mission right now!

Dermot Bateman is another name who we will be seeing a lot more of this year. He is just off the back of finishing off 3 major tracks that are bound to be big hits, atain, one of these tracks will be released on the Gearbox Digital label. This mix will contain these brand new tunes as well as many other smashers out there now.

Finishing off the night is non other than our Gearbox resident Loony who has been pounding out heart stopping mixes for us for years now. This mix is no different in terms of class than his previous productions as he picks out an incredible tracklist of proper hard trance bangers.

20.00 - DJ W
21.00 - DJ Thera
22.00 - Nomad
23.00 - K-Cin

Kicking off the night is one of Holland's brightest potentials in hard trance, DJ W. After gaining massive support after his remix of Sa.Vee.Oh's Loop Hole, DJ W is now looking to continue his onslaught on the hard dance scene with more reverse bass bangers and something that will be released on Gearbox Digital in the future as well.

Then we have none other than one of the most influential characters in the hard dance world today, DJ Thera. After a very successful period in Early Hardstyle under the alias Brennan & Heart, Thera took a long time out of the business only to explode back onto the scene creating a diverse sound in Hard Dance and most importantly a sound that he loved. Thera is now on top of the world, but somehow still manages to do it with an original, underground sound that he loves, and Gearbox are delighted to announce that we are the new home of DJ Thera's Hard Trance sound as he is going to be mixing for us bi-monthly. HELL YES!!!

Nomad then takes to our airwaves with another explosive mix full of real classic hard trance sounds. Nomad is the king of the true hard trance sound and continues to push this sound despite the business losing some of its key players in recent times. Nomad is now the lynch pin in the game and we hope for hard trances sake that he continues to produce more smasher tracks that set dancefloors alight.

ending the night is Fear.FM's very own K-Cin. K-Cin first got recognition for his beautifully constructed Early Hardstyle sets before he took on a slightly harder genre in Hardcore. K-Cin is now the man behind the harder stream on Fear.FM, but we will never forget his talent for putting together excellent Early Hardstyle sets, so we have invited him back to close an excellent and extremely hard night on Gearbox.

21.00 - Shaun T's Open Your Mind Podcast with special guest Argy
23.00 - Dermot Bateman



Aussie sensation Pred has been creating quite a stir in the hard dance scene with his production duo 'Bangerz & Masherz'. After having already gained a hard dance number 1 on trackitdown with their debut release, Bangerz & Masherz then had their second release on Gearbox Digital and again dented the top 10 in the hard dance charts.

Shaun T gained his reputation in hard dance by putting together ridiculous 3 deck mixes jam packed with the a variety of hard dance tunes. His skills saw him take place on Manchester's Global Radio station but now, he takes his brand new podcast to Gearbox and for the first edition of his podcast he invites the hottest property in tech dance music today - Wales very own Argy.

Dermot Bateman is a man on a mission at the moment as he drives his style to the masses of hard dance fans - and they love it!! Every release that Dermot has at the moment is instantly in the top 10 on trackitdown and we hope that doesn't change any time soon because his track 'Flashbacks' is due for release later this year on Gearbox Digitial.

Their new Harder Edge sound has sparked a breakthrough in hard dance where more and more artists are going for a hard electro sound, but no-one has come close to perfecting it the way the Organ Donors have. Make sure you tune in for this set.

Shaun T is the man behind the man behind the Open Your Mind Podcast that features mixes from Organ Donors and Re-Tech. But make sure you catch his set to hear a monsterous mix that blends a mammoth number of different tracks into one hour. Talented DJ to say the least.

22.00 - Louk
23.00 - Pred



Without any shadow of a doubt, DiabLik has been my (Desudo) favourite artist over the past year in hard dance. Everyone of his productions is absolutely busting with class, quality and originality. This DJ has made his mark and solidified his sound like no other artist around and not only that but he now runs one of the best new Digital Labels in the business 'Rave Me'. It is an absolute delight to ask DiabLik back onto Gearbox and as you will probably already know - this man can mix like a demon as well!

Andrea Montorsi is one of the biggest names in hard dance, hailing from Italy and working on many productions with Luca Antolini, Andrea has also established a specific sound within hard dance which the masses absolutely love. Hear yet another mix of absolute banging tracks that no doubt, you will be playing yourselves soon enough when they are released in the near future.

If you can believe it, this is Louk's very first Gearbox mix. Years of hasslings seems to have finally paid off as Louk provides us with a live set that he has re-recorded from his latest liveset last weekend. Louk is one of big players in UK hard dance scene as he runs the very popular Compulzion record label! It is a delight to get Louk back on the show, make sure you catch this set because you will be treated to every aspect of his hard dance collection as he picks out a few classics in amongst a few of the best new tunes going right now.

Pred will end the show with a delightfully deep and almost chilled out hard dance mix, which showcases a few of his new tunes, one of which is to be released on Gearbox Digital very soon. This aussie always picks out an outstanding set so don't be surprised when he blows you off your seat once again.
