Man I know the feeling, they ain't what they used to be but immortalised and froze inntime during this era. 35 now and still remember my best mates older brother coming back absolutely fucked after sensations BLACK. It needs a revival
yea, idk why they are going for "whats popular" but they sounded much better when they made hardstyle like this. So many memories back in the day...and drugs.
BoardWalkToke In 2009-2010, Showtek broke away from Platinum Agency, the booking agency that is owned by or has some affiliation with ID&T/Q-Dance. Since doing that, it meant that Showtek no longer received bookings from any Q-Dance events. In turn this meant they were probably not receiving the money they once were, which is also probably another factor as to why they changed genres
Enkountor So true producers want to live on the street? They need to make money to fucking survive. It's not like theu stopped producing hardstyle. Listen to Get Loose. They're still working on crazy collabs, therefore they're experiencing with alot of different things right now.
One of my all time favorite hardstyle anthems, the vocal processing is so good and I just love the breakdown and different kinds of kicks. Brings me back to 2008 any time I hear it
Omg I don't f*cking know what this song has, but it's epic! They try to do everything nowadays with hardstyle, but they don't get even close to what used to be... Inovate my d*ck, bring back the 2007-2009 hardstyle and the 2000-2006 oldschool hardstyle.
I've used the lyrics at 3:55 for an English project once back in 09, high school. It was for poetry. I still think about it, how far the style has changed. I got full Mark's for the assignment btw.
They peaked at this moment, as a hardstyle lover through 18 years, i will say this gotta be one of the best hardstyle tracks in history, its godlike, this and the end of my existence, but this is 8 minutes of accelerating hardness, which possibly cant be matched..
Degenerated? It's called evolved. Don't tell me you missed out on all the great stuff that came out in the years after that. Things change, get over it.
They fall into more than many sub-genres, in a way, both of you are correct. French House, House, Funk, Techno, Acid, Glitch, Soul, Abstact, Experimental, Deep House, Rock, Metal, and Pop are sub-genres all displayed in their music, it just depends on the song and album. That's what makes them so great. They don't have to keep towards a single category. They are truly musical geniuses.
I've listened to hard style off and on this past year and honestly I only really keep coming back to a few select showtek songs. maybe I'm not a huge hard style guy but man I'd say if anything I'm a fan of showtek.
TheKinetic9 this is not a climax. The climax comes much later in the track and is the part where the melody and the kick come in together.This is a mid- intro to be precise, and because of the nature of this part of the track one can very well refer to it as a drop.
3 guys are in a cafe. One says: "I've got the smallest arm in the world!" Another says: "I've got the smallest head in the world!" The last one says: "I'm the most musical talented in the world!" The 3 guys go to Guinness World Records. First one goes first and returns happy: "I really have the smallest arm in the world!" Second returns happy too: "I really have the smallest head of the world!" The last one returns angry and screams: "WHO THE F**K IS SHOWTEK?!"
Funny to see how more and more people are coming back to this anthem, even though it's 2008.. U can really see hardstyle is becoming more populair amongst other countries besides Holland And Italy too. Heart For Hard
+Daniel Brooks Fun fact: Headhunterz - Power of the mind is in trailer to a movie about an addict. Doesn't quite fit with Hardstyle to a movie, unless it is a partymovie. XD
It's that shadowy appearance you feel, but you can't see. It's above and beyond you since you've chosen this path. It conceals overpowering strength and durability to an unknown degree. It's that word that strikes fear into your mind. It's like heading into a tunnel leading only to darkness. Giving you shivers down your spine. You've experienced it before, like you've been captured by that shadow. Boundaries are there to be broken. Admire that deepest fear. It gives you something to believe in..
was 16 when this came out. now im 31. my age may have changed. but this banger never will. RIP good Showtek. too bad you sold out years ago.
I'm glad I'm not the only one.
agree
this used too me my ring tone when back in 2010
Man I know the feeling, they ain't what they used to be but immortalised and froze inntime during this era. 35 now and still remember my best mates older brother coming back absolutely fucked after sensations BLACK. It needs a revival
They back now lol
Showtek will never be the same...
yea, idk why they are going for "whats popular" but they sounded much better when they made hardstyle like this. So many memories back in the day...and drugs.
Because they're analogue players in a digital world.

ShuffleKarlok oh shit. Checked some sources to see if this was true and it was. Thanks for letting me know man :D

10 years later this master piece continuous being one of the best anthems ever made in Hardstyle history.
Facts
ahead of it's time
even now
the Jensen brothers really fucked up with their choices
whoever showed them EDM needs to be headbutted
@@mysticnovelbro went mainstream house for the money sadly. cant even listen to their cookie cutter dribble anymore.
Back in the days this was the bomb. It still is great though.
Word. I love this style of hardstyle. I feel the newer songs have lost some of it's "spirit" so to speak.
you my channel subscribe
Now that I found this version much better I always wondered who copy edited my stuff now I found this
When showtek was the King of Hardstyle
one of the best hardstyle anthems of all time.

This is for sure the best track in history of hardstyle ever made.
5 years and this song still doesn't get old.
Always wanted to hear this song live, and then suddenly at qlimax '13 it was played by Wildstylez and Max Enforcer!
This moment was so fucking Epic
Fucking epic moment
I fuckin agree , i was shocked haha ! :D
Happy that I experienced that moment!
Richard de Jonge Dude Wildstylz played this at EDC Vegas 2012, I got a video of it. It drove the crowd fucking nuts the energy was next level
man i remember when this first came out holy crap i feel old !!!
You're not the only one haha
I still have the Sensation Black 2008 CD with this anthem :D
One of my all time favorite hardstyle anthems, the vocal processing is so good and I just love the breakdown and different kinds of kicks. Brings me back to 2008 any time I hear it
YOU NEED HEADPHONES! really - only this way you truly can enjoy this masterpiece!
same as Borderline - Tatanka
DarkAngelCookie True:)
I think, that 600W hi-fi is way better than headphones
Bose QC35's here. :D Though A Bose surround system is just as good.
Nah!! in a venue with thousands of people where you cant hear anything BUT the music. that is how you listen to music.
Woah, solange nicht mehr gehört. Old but Gold :)
Omg I don't f*cking know what this song has, but it's epic! They try to do everything nowadays with hardstyle, but they don't get even close to what used to be... Inovate my d*ck, bring back the 2007-2009 hardstyle and the 2000-2006 oldschool hardstyle.
best hardstyle track of all time

Showtek legend of Hardstyle.
2021 and I still come back to listen 🔥🔥🔥🔥
They peaked at this moment, as a hardstyle lover through 18 years, i will say this gotta be one of the best hardstyle tracks in history, its godlike, this and the end of my existence, but this is 8 minutes of accelerating hardness, which possibly cant be matched..
honestly these were the glory days of hard style. it has really degenerated from like 2010
2017 is being really good. Everything changes.
+Ilegator good but not as good as what we got in the past
Degenerated? It's called evolved. Don't tell me you missed out on all the great stuff that came out in the years after that. Things change, get over it.
you my channel subscribe
I love how Dark yet melodic hardstyle used to be
still listen in 2016......
this is when showtek was beast !!!!!! they stopped playing hardstyle ! what a shame
2019!!!!??? This song is a legend....!!

Best Part
23 mei 2021... 6 jaar BLACK meegemaakt... toon feestje.. ik zeg sensation black reünie in de Amsterdam ArenA🤯🤯
Just found out my neighbours dont like this lol
My neighbors are hardstyle fans and we on Saturdays drink and blare this play list. (( the Golden age of hardstyle))
🇬🇧🇬🇧
The best Anthem of Black. Nothing else can even compare to it. Now I must go suture up my ears.
Since showtek left the hardstyle, it should be called emotionalstyle. I miss tracks like that
you can never get enough of this music.
Showtek for as long as i live!!!
Nae neighbours like it yet ....fookin tune!
🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
This song made me a hardstyle fan over night, it's the only thing going through my head 2 days later
that melody tho!!
2:43 legit gives me goosebumps everytime, still the best hardstyle anthem ever made
Classic old school showtek amazing beats
I've listened to hard style off and on this past year and honestly I only really keep coming back to a few select showtek songs. maybe I'm not a huge hard style guy but man I'd say if anything I'm a fan of showtek.
I remember the day. Now I should to came back and save the day.
Showtek is definately one of the BEST bands ever and forever!
Don't leave before you hear 2:43
My #1 favorite hardstyle song ever!!!!!!!!!!
2:38
1:58 you mean! One does not simply skip one of the best drops in hardstyle history!
Memorax Its not a drop... dubstep has a drop, hardstyle has a climax if i am CORRECT!
TheKinetic9 this is not a climax. The climax comes much later in the track and is the part where the melody and the kick come in together.This is a mid- intro to be precise, and because of the nature of this part of the track one can very well refer to it as a drop.
Memorax I thought only dubstep had "drops". but now i know :)
TheKinetic9 House, Dubstep and Trap have drops
For life!!!! dude one of the best lines and songs ever ;)
3 guys are in a cafe.
One says: "I've got the smallest arm in the world!"
Another says: "I've got the smallest head in the world!"

30+ years later this is still a banger
I feel you buddy! 😂
what kind of hardstyle is this? sorry i want to know haha 😍
This is just hardstyle. Only the sound design changed a lot to this day.
This ain't no normal hard style, this is showtek!
ces573 hahaha yes ofcourse!!!
Just search for Hardstyle that was made before 2010.
FreakNZMedia u gay bruh
2:55 - 3:25
the best 30 seconds of hardstyle to ever be created
Insanity
Funny to see how more and more people are coming back to this anthem, even though it's 2008.. U can really see hardstyle is becoming more populair amongst other countries besides Holland And Italy too.
Heart For Hard
Why did they turn gay :(
Probably when they realized how much money you get as EDM stars.
Some play for the money.
Few play for the honor.
This is definetly my favorite anthem from all Harstyle festivals ever made.
This should be the soundtrack to a horror movie.
+Daniel Brooks Fun fact: Headhunterz - Power of the mind is in trailer to a movie about an addict. Doesn't quite fit with Hardstyle to a movie, unless it is a partymovie. XD
+Miamicop Can you send a link?
***** /watch?v=vA9SuwRfcGA In case the link doesnt work the movie is called "Heaven knows what" from 2015
lool nice, thank you
+AEEA no surprice that Headhunterz aint a great fit... His tracks are way to euphoric. No comparison to the dark, fearfull oldskool :D
Remember this like I was 18 again
Yeah man this shit is so nostalgic is legit depresses me to see where this scene has gone
Wat a tune I got up to all sorts back in the day
You ever hear a song that gives you goosebumps at the tight moments. This is that song :/ show ten will never be the same
You guys are amazing !!!!!
one of the best showtek has ever made, shits all over anything on their album
Ребят пишу что очень обажал все то время когда вы выступали в Sensation это просто шедевр!
i was searching this song for million of years!!! finally i found it :) thanks 4 uploading it
HARDSTYLE IS THE FUCKIN BEST MUSIC ON EARTH!!!!
My first hardstyle track i've heard.This track actually made me to love Hardstyle!!
Showtek are makking a new hardstyle album at the end of this year!!
Lies :(
fake ! You don't have source
MrMaxitize we are on the internet - who need's source?
this is the sound of my soul
I did find this song because of R33MIX and I love this song now. Thank you R33MIX. I listen to this song daily.
I was there, Amsterdam Arena ❤🎉
I was at this and I loved this anthem, I remember them playing at the Archys in Glasgow later that year and it was insane.
Showtek, one of the few producers' in the scene straying away from the crap that has infected q-dance and hardstyle
i love it omg it´s great showtek for live
This must be the best Showtek i've heard
Showtek will never die 2023/2024 🤙
It was my first hardstyle song which I ever heard and almost started to cry , I never back down with Hardstyle !
It's that shadowy appearance you feel, but you can't see.
It's above and beyond you since you've chosen this path.
It conceals overpowering strength and durability to an unknown degree.
It's that word that strikes fear into your mind.
It's like heading into a tunnel leading only to darkness.
Giving you shivers down your spine.
You've experienced it before, like you've been captured by that shadow.
Boundaries are there to be broken.
Admire that deepest fear.
It gives you something to believe in..
December 7th, 2008!
Oh boy! I can't wait!
This track is super awesome. Saw it live in Seattle!

Showtek on jumala! Jokainen asia, jonka olen kuullut niitä on maksamatta! Showtek ikuisesti!
@kpsnnf i thought a cupboard was the thing that you put your bowls and plates in above your counter...or does that have a different name in England?
@Caska4 Which is a huge rave with 45,000 some people in it. They hold one in the Netherlands and one in Germany
Showtek is the god...
