Hard Beat Asylum is an outlet for Kashi, to express himself creatively. After dominating the reverse bass scene with partner James Swankie, HBA is a platform to get some of his more experimental ideas out there,directly through his own online shop. Expect an
ything from 160 BPM Hardstyle, Hard Electro, Hard House to even Hardcore at 180 BPM. Having been into harder styles of dance music for 16yrs, Kashi has been there from the beginning. He started playing Hard House,UK Hard Dance in the glory days, before gradually shifting to Italian Hardstyle. Massively influenced by the golden era of Hardstyle back in the early 2000's. S&K got together and have played every major event in the UK and Ireland, narrowly missing Australia (we won't mention that). S&K have made their own sound and plan to continue, but with HBA adding a new dimension and fresh ideas in the studio. It can safely be said that the sole purpose of setting the new label up was to produce quality harder edged music and get it out there as soon as possible, so why not set up your own online shop (Currently under construction).The future is exciting and Kashi hopes this new outlet swell as S&K Recordings can make a positive impact for the scene, and music he loves.
