It is impossible to mention Hard Dance in the UK without bringing Cally & Juice into the conversation.  Their clever and unorthodox style behind the decks has won them many admirers around the globe and their constant re-writing of the rules keeps people flocking to the front of the decks to see what they’ll be doing next.  Whether it’s frantic scratching over drum & bass or hip-hop beats, scratching with feet, blindfolded scratching or even hand-spins on the decks, you can guarantee these boys will keep you entertained.

In the UK they keep one of the busiest DJ diaries, and average around 3-4 gigs per weekend, with as many as 6 gigs some weekends.

  They play for the likes of Creamfields, Gatecrasher, Godskitchen, Slammin’ Vinyl, Frantic, Tidy, Helter Skelter, Dreamscape, Slinky and Polysexual to name but a few.  Overseas they have played for events such as Defqon.1 (Q Dance, NL), Q-Base (Germany), Impulz (NL), Eden (Ibiza), Manumission (Ibiza), Esparadis (Ibiza), Beachbop (NL), Masterdome (LA, USA), The Tunnel Club (Germany), Hackers (Phoenix, Arizona), have toured Taiwan, and have recently toured Australia.

On the production front, since parting company with Nukleuz a few years ago, the boys have launched their own label to push their unique sound, which they simply describe as “our own fusion of hard trance and hardstyle with elements of drum & bass, old skool, hip-hop, and any other genre that influence us thrown in for good measure”.  The label, aptly named ‘Ourstyle’ completely sums up not just their production ideas but also everything they’re trying to contribute to the scene.  In late 2008 they had the prestigious honour of remixing ‘Lost In Dreams’, the official Q-Base anthem.  They are the first UK act to ever be asked to remix/write a track for the mighty Q-Dance brand and it has received rave reviews from all over Europe.

Ourstyle Digital was also recently launched to capitalise on the ever growing download market and with several releases already under their belts and many more planned for the rest of 2009, you’re almost guaranteed to hear a Cally & Juice tune in most Hard Dance sets around the World from 2009 onwards.

With all that under their belts the boys show no sign of slowing down. Their passion and hunger for their work is stronger now that it was when first started playing back to back 10 years ago.  If you’ve seen them playing out recently you’ll know what I’m talking about.  If you haven’t seen them out recently, make it a priority...you won’t regret it.
