Paul Elstak’s hardcore legacy hits Bootshaus at HAKKE360

Lock it in: HAKKE360 presents 3 Decades of Paul Elstak at Bootshaus Cologne on October 10th, 2025. Three floors. No chill. Just raw, pounding beats and a crowd that lives for it. No excuses – if you’re serious about hardcore, you need to be there.

After the summer break, HAKKE360 will be back with a new edition, dedicated to none other than Paul Elstak – the “godfather of hardcore”, as he’s often called. Three decades of hardcore history, coming alive in an exclusive Germany showcase at Bootshaus Cologne.

Paul Elstak will not only take us on a journey through 30 years of hardcore history in a 3-hour solo set – he’ll also team up with Mad Dog and Panic for two massive back-to-back sessions. Three sets. One legend. One night you won’t forget.

But – that’s just only part of the story!

The second floor, BLCKBX, will be fully taken over by the PTP Hardcore crew – taking us on a throwback journey to the roots of hardcore with a heavyweight lineup that needs no introduction. Along for the ride: Marc Arcadipane, bringing those grimy kicks and pounding rhythms that already tore through warehouses and illegal raves back in the ‘90s. And we can also look forward to a set from Tensor & Re-Direction, carrying that spirit of the golden hardcore era into today.

The early terror heads will also get their money’s worth at the Dreherei floor:
Akira & Bruhze – All Night Long. Until the lights come up.

Anyone who’s already been to HAKKE360 knows: it’s that perfect mix of hardcore legends, underground vibes, and that tight-knit community spirit that makes it truly special. Let’s HAKK again!
