HSU is bringing a huge dose of hardstyle history to Sydney early next year. On Saturday, January 23, 2027, the Australian organisation will host KLASSIC for the first time: a one-off event dedicated entirely to the tracks that have shaped the harder styles over the years. With just four sets and nine artists, the line-up features the likes of Technoboy, Tuneboy, D-Block & S-te-Fan, DJ Isaac, Wildstylez and Brennan Heart.

Under the motto ‘Four sets, nine artists. Only Once’, HSU wants KLASSIC to be a night that truly happens only once. Instead of an extensive line-up featuring dozens of names, four specially curated sets will take fans on an eight-hour journey through the history of the harder styles.
Technoboy & Tuneboy celebrate 20 Years of Klassics
Technoboy and Tuneboy will join forces behind the decks for OMG: 20 Years of Klassics. The two Italians have been among hardstyle’s most influential names for decades and have built up an enormous catalogue of classics, both together and individually. Through numerous aliases and projects, they helped shape the early years of the genre. At KLASSIC, they will have the opportunity to bring twenty years of music and memories together in one special set.
D-Block & S-te-Fan and DJ Isaac bring Klassic Shivers
D-Block & S-te-Fan and DJ Isaac will also reunite for KLASSIC. The three Dutch artists share a long history and have been responsible for several major hardstyle tracks together, including ‘World Renowned’, ‘Harder State Of Mind’, ‘Slave To The Rave’ and, more recently, ‘Berlin’.
At KLASSIC, they will once again share the decks for a special set titled Klassic Shivers. With their extensive individual catalogues as well as several collaborative releases, D-Block & S-te-Fan and DJ Isaac will have plenty of material to draw from during this unique set.
Wildstylez & Brennan Heart bring their classics together
Another standout combination is Wildstylez and Brennan Heart. Under the name Let Me Lose My Klassic Minds, two of hardstyle’s most recognisable melodic catalogues will come together. Both artists played an important role in the development and international growth of hardstyle. In 2012, they also joined forces for ‘Lose My Mind’, a track that went on to become one of the most recognisable hardstyle records of that era.
HTID Crew completes the four sets
For the fourth set, HSU is looking beyond hardstyle alone. Gammer, Hixxy and Stonebank will come together as HTID Crew – Best Tunes Ever, giving the UK hardcore side of harder styles history a prominent place at KLASSIC. Villain is also part of the line-up and will host the event throughout the night.
HSU describes KLASSIC as a ‘full scale classics show’, featuring nothing but major anthems and legacy tracks from the past. “Relive the tracks that defined generations and the moments that made you fall in love with the music,” the organisation says.
