Dating back as far as the early 90's at the age of 15, HardCut became involved in the rave scene in the southwestern most point of Texas, U.S.A . After decades of fine tuning his production and dj skills HardCut was soon being asked to perform on a regular basis in the states playing alongside local, national, and international talent ranging parties from as far north as Detroit and Chicago, and as far south as Atlanta and Miami. Noteable headlining dj's include Omar Santana, Dead P.A., Richard Devine, Ferry Corsten, Frankie Bones, DJ Venom, Angel F, and Woody Mcbride, leading him to be picked up as a resident for some of the most infamous events in the Detroit-Chicago area, the Hazardous parties.
