Artist Files - S.H.O.K.K.
20th anniversary | Delivering universal Dance Music since 2005 Switzerland's S.H.O.K.K. played a major role in creating Joyride Music and its sublabels with his (their) remix of Dave Joy's "First Impression", originally released in 2001 on Planet Traxx/Drizzly Music. The Remix has emerged to be a relentless Hard Trance classic over time, being re-released on Joyride Music's sublabel Thrust Groove Records in 2012. S.H.O.K.K. quickly rose to fame, becoming the legend he is today with his original tracks as released on "Pulse", a sublabel of the long time defunct but still remembered Overdose imprint. Over the past two decades, he has continued to be on top of the scene with an impressive amount of remixes done for the likes of Cosmic Gate, Flutlicht, BBE, Signum, DJ Shog, DJ Joop, DJ Energy, Luca Antolini, P.H.A.T.T. and many others. Since 2017, he's one of the early days artists and regulars on Nick Coles' HTE (Hard Trance Europe) label. For the first time in 2016, S.H.O.K.K. joined Joyride Music's sublabel Phoenix Recordings with "Whisky Hotel", his first ever original, released on the Swiss Trance label run by Madwave and Dave Joy. The most recent track "Mirtazapine" was released at the beginning of 2025. More sounds to discover: https://linktr.ee/joyridemusic
