define hardstyle? 
To quote wiki:
Hardstyle, sometimes referred to as hardbass, is a sub-genre of trance music that is closely related to nu style gabber and hard trance. It's a fusion of both Hard Trance and Hardcore aka nu style gabber to be more specific. Hardstyle is grouped in the Hard Dance section. Its sound is usually characterized by a four to the floor kick beat and an off-beat gabber style bass line, trance like synth stabs and sweeps and miscellaneous samples. Tracks often feature excessive reverb and/or other effects, breakdowns and occasionally small breakbeat sections. The average tempo is between 140 and 150 bpm, around 30 slower than nu style gabber. Many hardcore artists produce hardstyle songs, which sound very similar but are more accessible. Hardstyle is generally played alongside Nu-NRG and gabber in the UK and aside hard trance or hardcore in the rest of Europe. In Finland Hard Style is often played in vocational school pupil's tuning cars.
It is often what is played at raves and is the preferred genre fore the Melbourne shuffle
