    Ivy Insights

    The Keeping The Rave Alive! podcast has been a staple in my life since 2015. Kutski's ability to play all kinds of sets, providing 360 degrees of the harder styles, is truly impressive. I eagerly anticipate each new episode every week because once a month just wouldn't be enough. The variety in the wife genre of music is always refreshing and I'm constantly discovering new sounds that I love. One artist that stands out is Venjent, whose sound I believe Kutski would appreciate as well.

    One of my favorite memories was when I first found KTRA while I was on a 90m tower crane in Coventry. Raving in the air just seemed to hit harder and ever since then, I've been a long-term listener. The banging choons and nostalgic vibes take me back to raving in the early 90s, dancing under the stars and living the 'e' dream. It's the perfect soundtrack for my morning run.

    I can confidently say that KTRA is simply the best harder style podcast out there. Kutski consistently brings the beats week after week and his commitment to delivering the show every single week for many years is unparalleled. His cheerful and entertaining manner keeps me engaged throughout each episode.

    While there are no major drawbacks to this podcast, one criticism could be that it only releases one episode per week. As an avid listener, sometimes it feels like too few episodes and I can't get enough of this high-energy music.

    In conclusion, The Keeping The Rave Alive! podcast is a gem among podcasts in showcasing the dopest rave tunes of today, tomorrow, and yesterday. Kutski's dedication to bringing us quality hard dance music every week is commendable and greatly appreciated by fans around the world. From Utah to Walla Walla in WA to Reston in VA, people are tuning into KTRA daily for their dose of upbeat tracks and uplifting vibes. Thank you, Kutski, for keeping the rave alive!
