STOMPING
In 2002, Alexander Azzi, otherwise known as the hardcore/gabber electronic act, Perfect Dark, dropped a six-song EP titled Here I Stand. It was released by DJ Rob GEE, who signed Perfect Dark to a record deal and helped the project break out into the aggressive hard dance scene.
After an indefinite leave and losing touch with his label, Alexander moved on to other things, including a venture into the dubstep genre under the name Drop Goblin, which received notable success.
Now, 2022 marks twenty years since the release of "Here I Stand" as an EP and song. Alexander Azzi says, "I thought it would be fitting to release a single titled "Still Standing" two decades later to mark my re-entry into the genre of hardcore/gabber music for anyone that remembers me. I haven't truly gone anywhere, and I am still standing to this day."
"Still Standing" is currently available as a digital single. Further release plans include a remastered re-release of the 2002 Here I Stand EP which will include a newly re-imagined version of the original "Here I Stand" track. The release will be available for free.
Im Jahr 2002 veröffentlichte Alexander Azzi, auch bekannt als der Hardcore/Gabber-Elektronik-Act Perfect Dark, eine Sechs-Song-EP mit dem Titel Here I Stand. Es wurde von DJ Rob GEE veröffentlicht, der Perfect Dark zu einem Plattenvertrag verpflichtete und dem Projekt half, in die aggressive Hard Dance-Szene einzudringen.
Nach einem unbestimmten Urlaub und dem Verlust des Kontakts zu seinem Label ging Alexander zu anderen Dingen über, darunter ein Abenteuer in das Dubstep-Genre unter dem Namen Drop Goblin, das bemerkenswerten Erfolg hatte.
Jetzt, 2022, ist zwanzig Jahre seit der Veröffentlichung von "Here I Stand" als EP und Song vergangen. Alexander Azzi sagt: "Ich dachte, es wäre passend, zwei Jahrzehnte später eine Single mit dem Titel "Still Standing" zu veröffentlichen, um meinen Wiedereintritt in das Genre der Hardcore/Gibber-Musik für alle zu markieren, die sich an mich erinnern. Ich bin wirklich nirgendwohin gegangen, und ich stehe bis heute."
"Still Standing" ist derzeit als digitale Single erhältlich. Weitere Release-Pläne beinhalten eine überarbeitete Neuauflage der Here I Stand EP von 2002, die eine neu gestaltete Version des ursprünglichen "Here I Stand"-Tracks enthalten wird. Die Veröffentlichung wird kostenlos verfügbar sein.
