Germanys most supreme harder styles event returns to the Westfalenhallen in Dortmund. For the third time, Syndicate will bring you the ultimate experience in hardcore, hardtechno and hardstyle. A legion of the most powerful forces in the hardest life forms of electronic dance music will gather at the European capital of sound. The ambassadors of the harder styles have expanded their horizons and developed themselves into invincible machines. The Westfalenhallen maintained their throne when it comes to an ultimate acoustical setting for a massive event, and is the designated venue to bring you a night filled with distortions, mass hysteria and a musical climax of your nightlife experiences.



Masters of Hardcore

The Godfather of Hardcore, DJ Paul is perhaps the most influential artist in European hardcore since the beginning of the hardest life form of electronic dance music. He was essential in bringing Hardcore to the masses in the nineties and continued his quest for the highest quality in the new millennium.

Tommyknocker, straight from Italy, he will be rocking the decks of Syndicate. Tommaso is one of the key DJs / Producers from Traxtorm records, the number one Italian hardcore label.

Straight from Rotterdam, it’s the stagewrecking trio which will make your eardrums bleed on Syndicate. Since their first Release back in 1993, Neophyte has been one of the best production teams in hardcore History.

Catscan, who kept the core burning since the early nineties, as well as Noize Suppressor, who crashed parties like Masters of Hardcore, Thunderdome and their own event Hardcore Junky.





Hardtechno Force

Hardtechno, which once was named Tekkno, Techno or even Schranz, has developed itself from the beginning of the nineties, where hardcore was born as well.

Chicago-Based DJ Rush is known as one of the pioneers of the harder forms in techno. His raw and uncut technostyle is unique in the world and influenced a whole generation of artists. Isaiah Major Rush played at all techno events all over the globe and has enormous fanbase. He is one of the godfathers of techno – a living Legend.

Sven Wittekind, one of the worlds leading hardtechno-artist cannot be missed. The general of german hardtechno received loads of awards for his work as a DJ and producer. When the Frankfurt-based DJ enters the stage, hell breaks loose.

Mr. Bitshift, Robert Natus, is considered one of the most important artists in the global hardtechno scene. Besides his immense discography featuring nothing but highlights, Natus takes a hardtechno-set to the next level.

Although the masses only know her for her devastating hardcore-sets, DaY-Már is also an excellent hardtechno DJ. Dagmar Otto’s love for raw energy fits perfectly with the pumpin’ technosounds. Syndicate will be her biggest hardcore performance up to date.

Switzerlands Export genius, Greg NoTill has built a great reputation playing the best in hardtechno. Together with Kaoz, he is one of the most influential icons in hardtechno.

Peter Schmidt aka Arkus P plays a home game, as the hardtechno superstar lives in Dortmund. A very special performance is given by the man who already wrecked Syndicate 2007 and 2008. He has released EPs on all major imprints like Abstract, Inflict or Friendly Fire.

Brachiale Musikgestalter, the crazy duo from Frankfurt will destroy the speakers again, while Jane Ephex from Westfalen, Germany, one of the big female stars of hardtechno, has her syndicate debut with her live-act this year.



Hardstyle Prison

Hardstyle Prison presented by MC Linez, the charming lady, who turns into a beast when she enters the stage. She is one of the major MCs of the harder styles. Her versatile makes her a unique performer.

One of hardstyles most colourful acts is the brotherhood of Janssen: Showtek came, saw and conquered it all. They have performed on all major events in the world, but there was one specific event missing in their resume. This year Showtek will show everybody why they are in hardstyle’s hall of fame.

Chill-out? While Zatox is playing, this is just impossibbe. The Italian mastermind will test the construction of the Westfalenhallen. His collaboration with Tatanka is legendary and his discography is filled with slamming tunes.

Coone, the true king of harder styles in Belgium, as well as Josh & Wesz from the Netherland are some of the most talented and innovative hardstyle-acts of this time. Their releases can be found in every recordbag of all hardstyle artists.

Weichei, Germanys number one hardstyle DJ makes his debut on Syndicate 2009. He stands out because of his mixing skills and a large discography deaturing productions on Audible Sounds, outscore recordings and Aquabase Recordings.
