A few weeks back I heard a Frantic Euphoria CD and was expecting the usual club music yet I was pleasently suprised to hear some really good stuff- Don't Ever Stop by Tony De Vit (1998) I am now thinking about buying this CD which would mean it would be the first time in two years that I would have brought a none Hardcore CD!
Anyone else heard of this Hard House ledgend?

He was a good producer alright, shame he's dead. I loved his track "The Dawn", one of my favorite hard house tracks.

He died about 9 years ago. I used to work a few hundred metres from the church where his funeral service was held. A few strange day that was.
Some of his stuff was really good. A massive DJ as well.

Check out his mix on Global Underground #5. It's been a staple of my car CD case for years.

Yep a true legend. Was playing Hard house even before the genre was created
What would he be playing today if he was still alive.Hardhouse poss, maybe other styles would creep in R.I.P
