Da Tweekaz - Ducktool

How's this for a change- hardstyle! I have no idea how i started listening to this genre this afternoon, i was just going from song to song on the recommended list on the right and somehow got to this. Da Tweekaz are some of my favorite hardstyle DJ's though, but this is the first time i have heard this song by them.

Years and years ago back when i was into hard electro and such, i was VERY into hardstyle. The energy of the beat, and the melodies were something i hadn't heard anywhere else. That's when i learned how to shuffle and give light shows and all that. As i said, Da Tweekaz were one of my favorite artists. This is because they always use odd samples for their songs, I've heard video game noises, chainsaws (no kidding), and now a rubber ducky. Their melodies are also just so catchy, i would find myself whistling or humming along.

Hardstyle is where shuffling really grew out of. I know that LMFAO make that party rock song and 'everyday they're shufflin' but back when hardstyle was invented- it got huge in melbourne and people were dancing the melbourne shuffle to it. The artists started making music to shuffle to and it just progressed like that. The dance affected the music and vice versa. It was really interesting to watch. Nowadays though shuffling is done with most types of electronic music (except dub and dnb).

Something to consider with hardstyle though, the first half of the songs are commonly the beat only. It stays like that, just a hard beat and such, and then the break will introduce the melody in a really epic way and then the rest of the song will normally have it. I can't tell you why this is, but try to listen though (or skip through) a song if you know its hardstyle. Because the beginning may be boring or something, but you haven't really heard what its all about till you've heard it through.

Also sidenote: i laughed at the comment below on the youtube page. "Da Squeekaz" hahahahaha
