hardrush ALBUM - VINYLGROOVER, RIZE & SCAR!
The first Hard Rush albums are starting to come off the press and they look absolutely EPIC!!

Not only is it STACKED with the very best in global Hard Dance BANGERS but also features not one but TWO (like what I did there) additional mixes from our very own SSU supastar, James Rize but we are also wicked HYPED to announce a bonus bonanza mix from Hardcores leading lady herself Kaylene SCAR! Now thats some proper triple threat, speaker flexin, head banging mad rave business!
vinYlgrooveR - CHIN WAG
Lindsay managed to grab a quick chin wag with Vinylgroover to chat about tomorrow's Hard Rush event and he is beyond excited to be back in the mighty US of A! This will be the first time VG has been Stateside since a year before the pandemic. He absolutely loves the vibes here and always loves to come and perform. VG is also super hyped for the Hard Rush album which he has jam packed with a bunch of new Happy Hardcore thats really exciting him at the moment. The album definitely showcases the new sound of World of Obsession and the relaunch of TWO, which has absolutely blown the doors off the scene and wayyyy exceeded all of his expectations, which is a superb sign for the health of the scene in general. We are loving the variety of Stateside artists TWO is featuring and can’t wait for future opportunities for our labels to work together. In closing VG says get ya ass down to Hard Rush TOMORROW and lets F#CKING aveeeeeeeiiiiitttttt!
