R:EVOLVE - Los Angeles, CA
R:EVOLVE is the brainchild and the production nom de guerre of Paulina Taylor. Having been involved with the hardcore scene since the early 1990s, R:EVOLVE became a project for bringing out the upbeat, blissful feelings and energy of the happy hardcore/gabber sounds that he grew up around and felt had gotten lost over the past decade. By modernizing the sound to reflect an emphasis on emotional melodies that evoke euphoric highs, backed by fast hard power-driven beats, he calls his sound Uplifting Hardcore.
