I was 11 when Hardwell released “Spaceman”. It was a song that introduced me to the name Hardwell and from that day I was hooked on both the name and the genre. To share a stage with Hardwell just over a decade later, even for only an hour was a dream come true. It was inspiring to my own craft to see him play with such passion while following his own path. His set confirmed two things for me. Hard work and resilience does pay off; and of course, Rebels Never Die.
