Mirage Hard Dance Festival

Date: April 2－8 pm

Venue: Qianshuiwan Culture Art Center

Price: 220-420 yuan

Imagine yourself, dancing to the hardest beats of our generation powered by three of the most iconic Hardstyle Djs, each with his own unique style. Through their music they give a soul to the universe, wings to the mind and life to everything. If you can find joy in music, this is your chance to experience something completely new for the first time ever in Shanghai. Without any doubt, Atmozfears is one of the biggest names and a true legend in the Hardstyle community. His melodies are amongst the most epic melodies ever created, generating an incredible intense and uplifting aura, an aura thousands of Hardstyle minds are getting lost in every weekend. 2015 was the year of Cyber. Supported by almost every big name out there, The Swiss Dj made his way from small talent stages, to the biggest festival stages of Europe. His productions remind of the golden era of Hardstyle between 2008-2010. It was back in 2008 when the young Jesse Koch came in touch with Hardstyle. Even though he started out skeptical, this music grew on him like a virus. He taught himself how to mix and started promoting his mixes on the internet. Becoming a resident DJ on some of the biggest online hardstyle radio stations and playing some smaller gigs, he realized that he had to start producing to grow further, which he did under the alias Festuca. A lot of proactive hours later, Festuca was able to create his own sounds and at the moment things are going really fast for him. With gigs like Qapital, Defqon.1, and X-Qlusive Holland in the past year, Festuca is one to watch. During the LAST 15 minutes of MIRAGE indoor festival, MOTI DANCE has prepared a fabulous and breathtaking endshow for everyone who made it to the end. Lights, laser, dry-ice and other scene effects will be on full throttle. With a special Hard Dance set, composed for this night only, the 7 hours roller coaster ride will come to an end－with a blast!
