Speakerguyz

Speakerguyz is a Hungarian Hard Dance Project formed in 2013 originally as a duo, but has been operating as a solo project since 2017, led by the original founding member. The debut single, "Galaxy," was released in the summer of 2013 and quickly became a massive success among fans. In the summer of 2021, Planet Punk - one of Germany's largest dance label - released his official remix of the Russian folk song "Rodina." The "Rodina (Speakerguyz Remix)" was featured on the "Rave Culture EDM" playlist curated by the world-famous Dutch duo W&W, reaching over 130,000 followers.

While Speakerguyz was less active after 2014, the project made a major comeback in May 2024 with an 18-track album, followed by numerous EPs and additional albums. At the end of 2024, he collaborated with Tevvez and Andonis—two of the most influential figures in "GymBro" culture—to release a remake of "Galaxy." This version achieved even greater success than the original, garnering hundreds of thousands of streams across various platforms in just a few weeks. Speakerguyz is a highly prolific and proactive artist, full of inspiration. Although many know him primarily for "Galaxy," he is far from a one-hit Artist, having released over 70 original songs—none of which are covers.

The artist behind Speakerguyz began his musical journey as an amateur in 1997. He started with House music but quickly transitioned to Trance after discovering the In Da House 2 compilation (distributed by Record Express), which introduced him to artists like Brooklyn Bounce, DJ Quicksilver, Scooter, Sash!, Kadoc, and Sequential One... Inspired by this album, he organized his first private house party in August 1997. It was so successful that he began receiving more requests to perform in his hometown and surrounding areas. His first amateur recording, Masterz DJ Team - Finally, was completed in late 1997, followed by his first official EP, Masterz DJ Team - Pump It!, on September 18, 1998.

His official DJ career began in May 1998. He landed his first residency in November 2000, which lasted for over six months until the club closed. It was here that he earned the nickname "DJ Home," as he felt completely at home in the venue.

Alongside his DJ and production career, he launched an annual mix series titled "Startmix" in November 1997, which ran until 2010 (expanded with summer editions starting in 2002). His 2000 and 2001 mixes were officially released by the legendary Universal Music, though the releases were eventually withdrawn due to low sales and his lack of public recognition at the time. In the summer of 2002, he began creating mashups and bootlegs, and by 2004, he started producing radio shows. To further develop his skills, he began studying media and communication in September 2004, completing his first internship as an assistant editor at one of Budapest’s most popular commercial radio stations later that year.

The breakthrough came in 2005 when he performed at the Budapest Parádé, the capital’s largest open-air festival at the time. This led to an increase in bookings, particularly from abroad. He has toured in countries including Poland, Switzerland, the Czech Republic, Germany, Austria, Slovakia, the United States, and Japan.

In 2007, he met Daniel Bukor, leading to a professional friendship and the opportunity to present shows on Brother FM in Érd. Under the name "Prestige Night DJ Team," they organized events nationwide. By February 2009, he was hosting his own show, Prestige Night, on Radio 24 in Dunaújváros, attracting over 30,000 listeners. He also became a regular performer at Club Heaven.

In September 2010, he launched the "Hands Up Session Night" show on MIX8 TV alongside Bass Rider. This led to performances at Hands Up Session events (Living Room/Diesel Club) and Hungarian Hardstyle events at venues like Kashmir and Gicch Club.

On May 1, 2012, he founded his own label, Start Records Hungary. The Speakerguyz project was subsequently formed in the summer of 2013 with Sebeko Jr. Their first track, "Galaxy," became a hit shortly after its release in July 2013, surpassing the one-million sales mark (including streaming data) over a decade later. Their second and final joint single, "Remember The Summer," was released in January 2014 before Sebeko Jr. left the project in 2017.

After the DJ Home project ended in 2016, the artist reinvented himself in 2017 with a new image and sound: Dancecore Invaderz. These tracks are characterized by a straightforward structure that often defies standard musical rules (such as the 32-beat structure) and intentionally utilizes dissonant notes. While reception varies, the success speaks for itself—his Soundcloud profile (now deleted) amassed over 12 million plays in six years.

His most successful track under this alias, "Cairo" (2018), sold over 350,000 copies (including streams). The "Dancecore Explosion," was featured on the prestigious Deep Dance series (Vol. 156) and garnered 2 million plays. His bootlegs of "Higher Love" (89ers) and the "Mortal Kombat" theme also achieved millions of views. These successes attracted the attention of major promoters and distributors, leading to international performances in countries such as the Netherlands (including the Amsterdam Dance Event), Finland, India, and Russia, as well as the Reeperbahn Festival in Germany.

During the COVID-19 lockdowns in the summer of 2020, he returned to his passion for radio hosting, producing over 100 episodes featuring guest mixes and spots from genre icons like Attila Náksi, Special D., and the Danceland DJ Team. His guest mix for Attila Náksi’s "Sláger DJ" show on Sláger FM aired on December 26, 2020, and was highly popular.

Musically, he feels closest to Hard Trance and Dancecore. He has conducted extensive research into the evolution of these genres and cites influences such as Ralph Fritsch, Pulsedriver, DJs@Work, Cosmic Gate, DJ Shog, CJ Stone, DJ Scot Project, Gigi D'Agostino, and Starsplash.

In Summary: With over 28 years of DJ and production experience, 22 years in radio hosting, and 14 years in label management, he is a veteran of the scene. His body of work includes over 1000 original creations and releases that have been played globally and achieved millions in sales.
