In the early 2000s, a new style of music appears in the bins: the Hardstyle. This sharper genre suited him well at that time and decided to create, with two friends, the team Brainquake (two DJ's and one MC).

From 2006 and sponsored by the Bernese producer Philippe Rochard, the three friends then launched into the musical production. The key is the release of an EP vinyl "The Worst" under the Swiss label Sector Beatz which will follow by two others: "In Da Club" and "Billionaire".

Following this, not only many Swiss clubs and parties opened their doors: Sonic (Basel), Energy (Zurich), Street Parade (Zurich) or OXA (Zurich), but also out of the country with performances at Techno Parade (Paris) or the Woodland Club (Lyon) to name a few.

Despite this success, Dan Mando put an end to this incredible adventure and decided to dedicate himself henceforth to the only music he really had in his guts since his debut: #Trance !
