Krowdexx

Krowdexx are an Italian DJ-producer duo comprising Giulio Destefanis and Simone Calvino, dedicated to Raw Hardstyle. Their music combines euphoric melodies with powerful drops – a contrast the pair describe as central to their sound.

They met at the same school in Alba at the age of eleven, becoming close friends after starting out as classmates. At fifteen, they bought their first MIDI controller and then discovered music production while experimenting together on a computer. Before becoming Krowdexx, they performed as Noisedominators, but felt the name was too close to Noisecontrollers. Their first track, “Y.A.T.”, was released on X-RAW Records at the end of 2015, followed by a move to British label Gearbox Digital in early 2017.

Their first show in the Netherlands came on 5 November 2016 at “Radical Redemption – Militant Mayhem”. They later collaborated with Malice and Thyron, among others, and released an EP on Scantraxx Records in early 2018. In 2019, their collaboration with Physika, “Bassline Homicide”, reached number three in the hardstyle.com Hardstyle charts. They released their debut album, “ICONS”, in 2023, and have performed at Intents Festival, Defqon1 and Masif Saturdays in Australia, among others.

Their music has remained prominent in the years since: “Eternal Pulse” was the Shutdown Festival 2025 anthem, while further releases followed in 2026. Anyone seeing Krowdexx at a festival can expect a duo that combines melodic moments with hard drops and has spent years performing on major Hardstyle stages.
