EMBRYON EVENTS proudly presents...
HISTORY OF HARDCORE: YEAR XXV
Every year we take a good hard look at our scene. We see who's been moving the needle. Maybe it's their style. Maybe its how active they've been. Maybe they've put out a number of releases. Sometimes they've been busy organizing. Either way, we see who's been making waves and we put them on our stage. This event is about celebrating our own, no matter the subgenre, flavour or style.
We ask our teachers for the night to play their influences, to play the tracks that helped shape them, the ones that move them, the ones that define them and also to show us what's next. We encourage every DJ to step outside of their normal bounds and weave a sonic story for us all.
Your teachers for the night are from across a wide swath of the scene. We've got foundational djs in the scene and those just out of the gate that are swinging hard. We also usually have some surprises so stay tuned. ;)
