Art of Fighters started out in Brescia (Italy) in 1997, from the idea of 3 guys: Cristian Nardelli, Matteo Pitossi and Luca Lorini. Thanks to FastTracker, 3 years of try-outs, tons of rejected tracks and the big help of the Stunned Guys, the first record The Beat Can't Change came to life in the year 2000. In 2001 their second E.P. Artwork appeared in the stores, definately putting them on the map of hardcore. Their tracks appeared on many compilations and their fame began to expand.
Tha Playah, born as Jim Hermsen in 1982, has developed his own particular style from the very beginning. Few artists had a start that can be compared to the storm this man unleashed in 2002.

Being one of the few artists ever to be contracted from the very start of his career to a label as prestigious as Neophyte Records, this dj made it very clear he deserved that chance.
