THE VIPER (Holland)
(Babyboom / Nepphyte / Rotterdam / Viper Beatz)
http://www.djtheviper.com
In 1996, The Viper released his first E.P 'The Beat' on Samurai Records. From then on The Viper was able to take his production skills to the next level and every subsequent release became an instant party hit. Several successful collaborations followed with top Dutch hardcore DJs/producers such as; DJ Isaac, G-Town Madness, Mad-E-Fact, Endymion, Nosferatu, Neophyte, Evil Activities, DJ D, and Tommyknocker.
In 2003, 2005, and 2007 The Viper worked on the 'Project Hardcore’ anthems with Evil Activities (2003), Endymion & Nosferatu (2005), and with G-Town madness (2007). Every remix he has made, has always become an instant classic. He has done remix work for 'Damage Inc. - Turn around', 'Tony Salmonelli - Hey' with Mad-E-Fact, and one of the most played tracks in 2006/2007 was his remix of 'Tha Playah - **** the Titties' with Tommyknocker.
In 2006, The Viper decided to start up his own record label called; 'Viper Beatz.' The first release, which was titled, 'Blow Da Club Down' was a true hit in the hardcore world. Every DJ in the Netherlands, Italy, Spain, Switzerland, and Germany played this record. Naturally, it continued to cross international borders, thus infecting the world. For the second release of Viper Beatz, he teamed up again with G-Town Madness with a track called, 'Come As One.' This track also became a massive anthem. Due to the success of this track, it was chosen as The Project Hardcore anthem of 2007.
The Viper has played at almost every big event over the last couple of years. These events include, but are not limited to; Thunderdome, Project Hardcore, A Nightmare In Rotterdam, Hard Bass, Defqon, Raving Nightmare, and Masters of Hardcore. His talent and skills behind the turntables shows how popular this charismatic hardcore DJ has become over the years. Needless to say, in 2009, The Viper is still one of the most popular DJs in the Dutch hardcore scene.
We here at Twisted & Brainfire are very excited about The Viper's T&B debut!
MARC SMITH
(Notorious Vinyl)
http://www.myspace.com/theoriginaldjmarcsmith
This man needs no introduction. Marc Smith is back in his home town and ready to rock Reactor once again. A favorite here at T&B Marc has been at the forefront of the Scottish hardcore scene for many years. Playing at all the big party’s from back in the day such as, Rezerection, Holocaust, Technodrome and Earthquaker to name but a few, right up to present day with party’s such as, HTID, Uproar, Slammin Vinyl and Twisted & Brainfire.
Whilst so many others follow the obvious fads and fashions, Marc Smith continues to reel in an abundance of main room bookings and make a Notorious name for himself by stamping out his own and his label’s unique party friendly sound without surrendering to the more mainstream oriented side of the hardcore scene.
Marcs own label Notorious Vinyl is hugely popular in the UK hardcore scene, with the latest release Marc Smith & Gammer – The Building Shaker EP, Tearing up dance floors across the UK!
Get ready for the usual turntable wizardry from Marc as he graces the decks at Reactor May 29th!
