Who is Delete? Delete Songs, Music, Discography & Artists Like Delete
When exploring harder EDM, you’ll encounter rawstyle and hardstyle artists who’ve mastered their craft in tight-knit scenes without chasing mainstream attention. Delete is exactly that: an Australian rawstyle and hardstyle producer bringing serious technical skill to every production. For fans of 4D4M‘s harder sound, Delete represents the refined aggression that defines modern hardstyle. Adam recognizes that artists like Delete push the boundaries of hard dance music, combining relentless percussion with intricate sound design that rewards serious listeners.
Who Is Delete?
Delete is the stage name of Ryan Biggs, an Australian rawstyle and hardstyle producer who operates in the space where technical excellence meets raw energy. Rather than chasing mainstream visibility and streaming numbers, he’s built credibility through consistent, high-quality releases on respected hardstyle labels, collaborating extensively with industry figures like Deetox, Warface, and Deadly Guns.
His sound sits at the intersection of rawstyle’s aggressive, distorted basslines and hardstyle’s energetic melodies. This duality: combining hardness with emotional resonance: defines what makes his work compelling. Delete doesn’t just make hard noise for shock value; he crafts compositions that evolve throughout their duration, rewarding active listening while delivering the kind of dancefloor punch that moves bodies.
Delete’s Sound Explained
Delete’s music occupies the intersection of rawstyle and hardstyle, two genres that share heavy, distorted bass and driving rhythm but diverge significantly in emotional approach. Rawstyle emphasizes raw sound design and aggressive production techniques: distorted kicks, industrial textures, sometimes chaotic arrangements that prioritize impact. Hardstyle pairs powerful basslines with more melodic elements: uplifting synths, emotional breakdowns, euphoric builds that provide contrast.
Delete manages to balance both aesthetics. His rawstyle tracks hit with uncompromising force: shaking systems and demanding respect from anyone listening. But even in his heaviest work, you can hear intentional progression and careful composition. Collaborations with Deetox bring out slightly more melodic sensibilities without sacrificing the core aggression.
The production is consistently high quality. His kick design is precise: that punchy, impact-heavy attack characterizing modern hardstyle. Drums sit perfectly in the mix. Sound design ranges from industrial and mechanical to surprisingly organic, incorporating vocal chops and atmospheric elements that provide contrast to heavier components. This is someone who understands that even the hardest music benefits from dynamics and variation.
