Nah, Scantraxx owns Italian Hardstyle.

I don't see ItalianHS-related material on the Scantraxx website. When did this happen?

[Orbi]

It's not a sublabel like others and it seems somewhat 'hidden', but Scantraxx definitely own or have some share of Italian Hardstyle.

Check the sidebar of The R3belz' Soundcloud, it's referred to as the "Scantraxx-Italian Hardstyle Group" implying that there's a business connection between the two. Plus, those scandalous chat logs between Bioweapon/Audiofreq Sam and Nikkita mention that Dov (Elkabas, The Prophet) wants to "keep gerardo [Roschini, Zatox] to make money off of him," implying that there's, again, a relationship between the two labels. There was also a slip-up on some download portals in 2010 where an Italian Hardstyle release (can't remember which but the image is still probably around) was released under Scantraxx Italy. Could've been a clerical error but the stores just report what you give them, so that's a little more 'evidence'. There's one other link which I'm really tentative to make since it requires a bit of jump in logic; last year for the Hard Dance Awards two labels released samplers containing tracks to try and get the fans to vote for them: Scantraxx and Italian Hardstyle. Not to mention that the artworks were very similar. It's not concrete whatsoever but you can definitely see the connections.

Oppressive Scantraxx is oppressive.

Donkey Rollers will always be the kings of hardstyle, but they are increasingly irrelevant in the modern scene. Their time has been, and new acts have taken their place. When I say "best", I'm talking about from a labels perspective, and I don't think anybody in their right mind could make an argument that the Donkey Rollers are a bigger act to have on a label than the Noisecontrollers, unless Pollen and Zany actually decide they want to devote time to it again. Which they won't. It's not like the Donkey Rollers have lost their skill, they just pretty much don't exist anymore.

Also, just because a group releases frequently doesn't make them good. And Donkeys are making a new track, look in the Unreleased Tracks section.

More fuel for the conspiracy fire! Found this while searching around on Google. Why do MYD (who own Tillt and Neophyte Records) have a mirror of the old Scantraxx website? Might just be because the people who created the MYD website also made the Scantraxx website so they needed a place to host the old one just in case something happened. Or maybe it's something more sinister. Oh who knows, not like we get told anything these days. I've kind of stopped caring about who owns what these days, it's getting too confusing.

Make You Dance is a Scantraxx owned company, I remember reading it somewhere when it first launched.
