12:10 Yeah he sadly died, loved to see this tribute on such a beautiful stage. Ryan (known as Delete) was one of my favorite artists, and still is. His style was truely unique and unlike ever heard before. He is an inspiration to many (specifically noticeable in the record label he created called Spoontech) and will probably ever be. RIP Ryan, he'll always be a legend and a great inspiration.
Delete aka Ryan Biggs, was one of Hardstyles biggest pioneers and influencers. He has been credited of creating the "Gated Kick" that is so prevalent in Hardstyle. He was one of my favorite artists. I was at Defqon 1 in 2022 when they honored him with an hour memorial set "Ode to Delete" and played all his greatest tracks. A reaction to this would be great! - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UPqUPZpP3x4.html
He's an inspiration to many new and known producers, and his legacy, Spoontech, was just revived after having a few rough year(s). He was more than just a pioneer, he was a legend, an inspiration and truly one of the best producers in the scene (in my opinion). He might not be here no more, but his effect on the hardstyle scene will always live on.
I was there, as well as all the other editions since 2019, and I'm not breaking that streak any time soon. Love Intents so much, best festival out there imo!
The track 12:05 by Delete is titled "Alone". It's a colab. with a DJ named Deetox (Diana Zwerver). They did quite a few colabs together. Her and Ryan were very good friends. I remember chatting with her after his death. She was devastated for quite some time after. Deetox is known as the "Queen of Raw". You should react to some of her videos. She's fire!
