DJ THE PROPHET is TERUG OP HET PODIUM na bijna 3 JAAR PENSIOEN 💿 | PLAFONDDIENST - Hardstyle Podcast

DJ The Prophet joins us for a new episode of PLAFONDDIENST - The Hardstyle Podcast. This week, we welcome none other than Dov Elkabas, better known as DJ The Prophet, who is returning (after a 3-year hardstyle retirement). As the founder of the harder styles, founder of SCANTRAXX, and The Godfather of Hardstyle, he laid the foundation for a genre that now reaches millions of fans worldwide. In this episode, we dive back into the early years of hardcore, the rise of hardstyle, and the origins of SCANTRAXX. Dov talks about the first record stores, the role of Q-dance, the period in which hardstyle got its name, and the artists who grew into icons within the scene under his wing. Naturally, we also discuss his farewell in 2023, the From The Hard tour, his final show at Defqon.1, and the period that followed. For after nearly three years of hardstyle retirement, DJ The Prophet is back with Distorted Construct: a new chapter in which he steps behind the turntables again, but this time on his own terms. Additionally, we discuss old anecdotes, SCANTRAXX stories, Project One, Noisecontrollers, Headhunterz, Wildstylez, Brennan Heart, his view on the current hardstyle scene, and why “when in doubt, overdrive” might just be the most important life lesson of this episode. 👕 This podcast is made possible in part by Malelions.
