Is it just me, or have we seen less year mixes? It could just simply be me, and my Soundcloud algorithm has changed, but normally I would see hundreds of year mixes , but I've only come across a handful of mixes. One of them being a well hyped year mix, by the successful Hardstyle label Art Of Creation. They had an extremely successful year, despite COVID happening. They made tunes, which became hit after hit. And to celebrate the end of the year, and the year they had behind, they made this mix. An hour and a half long mix, with 34 of their releases.
The label has got a lot of excellent producers, the names will blind you: Noisecontrollers, Headhunterz, Wildstylez, Project One, Bass Modulators, Sound Rush, and Audiotricz. And guess what? You will hear a lot of these producers in this mix. But not only will you find productions by Art Of Creation's own artist roster, but also a few where they have collaborated with big names, such as Darren Styles, D-Sturb, KELTEK, Demi Kanon, Sian Evans, and many, many more.
If you are into Euphoric Hardstyle, this mix is just your cup of tea. And if you miss hearing these anthems at a festival, you aren't the only one. We will survive this COVID shite, so be patient: you will hear these anthems somewhere soon. Somewhere, with thousands of fellow ravers. We will get there, trust me. You will hear the anthems which would have filled a field with ravers in 2020 soon. Maybe 2021 is going to be our year?

We can all say that we have had a shit year, and it's not been great, and so far 2021 ain't looking great either. And a lot of people have struggled, and still struggle. One of those group of people are artists, who solely live on performing and selling stuff. So why not, after hearing this mix, go to their website, and purchase some merchandise, some records, etc. We should support everyone who needs help, as much as we can, and we are all in this together.
2020 has been a great year, music wise. A lot of excellent tunes being released, and this tracklist shows us how great Art Of Creation's year has been. So many damn good releases. But is it just me who sees a lot of releases by Audiotricz? They were on a roll in 2020. But all the records in this mix has been successful: we just need to hear them at a festival, to hear them at their full potential. The time will come.
Obviously, on a production level, the records are awesome. Some I didn't really appreciate that much (for example: Sound Rush - Brothers), but I would say that 95% of all these records have been great. But which of these 34 records stands out the most? Well, that's an easy answer....
I do love the vocals and the actual lyrics from 'Different, which was done by Sound Rush and Villain. So suitable for 2020. And it's one of those records which remains in your head for quite some time. Very catchy.
A fantastic year mix. One you need to check out, if you haven't already.
FUCK 2020, 2021 BE DIFFERENT.
