A RE:WIND in hardstyle is either completely unnecessary or it reveals something the original version buried — this one is the latter. Whatever was happening in the original version of Charged, D’s rework pulls the main energy to the front and strips back enough of the surrounding material that the kick pattern gets room to actually breathe. Dirty Workz has been consistent in the hardstyle space for years and this fits their catalogue without being a carbon copy of everything else on the label. The energy curve on this is good — it doesn’t peak too early, which is a problem a lot of hardstyle tracks have where they front-load everything and then have nowhere to go. Patience in the build phase is undervalued in this genre. This one builds, delivers, and exits properly. If you’ve been sleeping on the RE:WIND series, this is a reasonable place to start paying attention again.
