Atmozfears

Atmozfears runs on classical fuel: Tim van de Stadt grew up in a musical family and sat at a piano from age four, decades before his melodies filled festival fields. The project began in 2009 as a trio with Kevin Keiser and Michael Jessen; Jessen departed in late 2012, and when Scantraxx announced in July 2013 that Tim and Kevin were parting ways, van de Stadt carried the name forward alone, Keiser resurfacing as Infrno.

Living for the future

The turning point had already come: Scantraxx (the label of hardstyle’s Italian-Dutch crossroads) signed the act in February 2012, and the ‘Living for the Future’ EP that spring delivered the breakthrough. From there the euphoric lane was his: trancy buildups, piano-bred melodies, drops tuned for singalong rather than shock, on stages from Defqon.1 and The Qontinent to Tomorrowland.

The collaborative engine

Few hardstyle catalogues are as social: HDRR counts 170 Atmozfears releases, threaded with repeat partnerships: 13 shared credits with vocalist Energyzed, ten each with David Spekter and Audiotricz, and steady work with the euphoric new school: Sound Rush, Code Black, Devin Wild and Adrenalize.

Current form

The catalogue’s freshest chapter is its strongest on streaming: ‘Nothing Ever Feels The Same’ and ‘In The Cold’ (both 2026) lead his Spotify tracks in HDRR’s tracking, with ‘circles’ (2026) and ‘Hideaway’ (2025) close behind - euphoric hardstyle that keeps finding new ears fifteen years in.

Every new Atmozfears release lands on the Hardstyle Release Radar the day it hits Spotify. The full tracked catalogue is listed above.
