HARD HOUSE ACADEMY
@ Brixton Academy, Stockwell Road, London
Saturday 25th February 2006

This is what we’ve all been waiting for! The biggest Hard House event in the world teams up with the people behind biggest dance music festival in the world for one unforgettable night! Hard House Academy goes GLOBAL!

UDC are the Dutch super-promoters behind the massive Dance Valley Festival, and also the immense HQ - Holland’s most successful Hard House club which hosts a 15000 capacity arena at the festival itself. If there’s any Hard House club in the world that knows how to party like Frantic - then HQ is it.

Frantic in 2006 is all about diversity. We are committed to bringing you only the finest Hard House, Hard Trance, Hardstlye, House and Electro on the planet, and will strive to keep our line-ups varied, exciting, and on the cutting-edge of electronic music.

In an intense battle of UK Hard House against pounding European Hard Dance, HQ and the CB Bookings DJ Agency will bring only their biggest and best DJs to HHA:

• Stomp your heart out to the true showman Fausto’s hardstyle rhythms, JP’s eclectic blend of tough beats from across the world and the seldom-seen-before in the UK Marzz with a live showcase of twisted tech-trance beats!

• Experience Hard House 21st Century style as the superbly talented Organ Donors and Kutski go head-to-head for an exclusive 4-decks, 2 mixers, FX + Scratch set that will be the most exciting thing Hard House has seen for years!

• Andy Whitby and Cally Gage finally return to the HHA Main Stage to show why Frantic is number 1 alongside a show-stopping live set from Nu Energy Collective!

The Foyer brings you the best in NuBreed UK Hard House talent alongside legends of the scene including Alex Kidd and Phil Reynolds with an exclusive Classic Frantic Closing Set! The Balcony Bar is looking unmissable, with the resurgent Oblivion Records bringing you the finest producer/DJs in the land, such as Steve Blake, MDA & Spherical and the super-talented Greg Brookman. Meanwhile those sexy Brazillians from Never Enough will be dishing out slick, dirty House and Electro grooves all night long in the Corridor!

We will once again be using the mighty festival-standard Line Array Soundsystem in the Main Room alongside punchy Funktion One systems in the rest of the venue. Plus we’ll be teaming up with Halo to create the ultimate stage and lighting experience! HHA will feature our most powerful laser ever!

HHA is known across the world as the be all and end all of Hard House and Hard Trance events. That’s why we’ve got 300 Dutch nutters coming over from Holland especially for the event, our Brazillian massive, hundreds of party-mad Japanese, and all types from across the UK - from glammed-up girlies to cybergoths - HHA is for everyone!

And to top it all off - those lucky Dutch people will be experiencing their very own HHA Holland on February 18th!!!
