To be honest, I really don't get all the hate for Zatox on this forum. Compared to a lot of other producers he has a unique style that sticks out from the rest. It might be true that vocal-wise his tracks have a very commercial approach, but nevertheless they are extremely energetic with some of the best sound design the scene has to offer.
By the way, this here is coming from someone whose favorite artist used to be Zatox Pre-2009.
(Not trying to defend other DWX producers or colleagues, but just my two cents.)
I don't hate Zatox or his tracks, but this track misses everything that I look for in Hardstyle. This track has no atmosphere, no feeling, no complexity (not talking about complexity in producing technique/quality) and IMO this track isn't unique or original at all.
Sound design might be something producers appreciate the most, but most fans don't give a shit about that. That might sound harsh, but in my experience it's the truth.
