Dave Pearce "Pierre's mixes always go down a storm in my sets"
Lost Witness “Pierre Pienaar is a formidable young producer who has crashed onto the scene with his own inimitable brand of uplifting trance...one to watchâ€
Hailing from Namibia dance prodigy Pierre Pienaar has made a big impression on the UK & Worldwide club scenes as one of a handful of defining dance producers with an immense natural talent for crafting catchy, uplifting and euphoric trance sounds across all styles and for any occasion. 2008 has seen him spread his wings in all directions as manager for trance label Nukleuz Green which has allowed him to solidify the sound he’s known for, which is a combination of high energy, uplifting melodies, but at the same time cultivate and experiment with new sounds and new ideas.
Alongside this Pierre has been working with some of the biggest established and up and coming artists including JamX (DuMonde), Lost Witness, DJ Space Raven, S.H.O.K.K., Fubar from Ibiza Knights, Jason van Wyk / North Star, Lee Haslam, Will Atkinson, Steve Noxx, Audioscape, DJ Choose, Technikal, Ian Betts, DEREKTheBandit, James G, Steve Morley, Michael Dow, Boy Hagemann and many more.
Nick Sentience "Pierre is an exciting new producer who is making waves in the hard trance world, great to see a fresh face coming through"
2008 was also a great year for Pierre’s DJing career with highlights including spinning at Johannesburg’s super club Truth, being the first international DJ to play at TRAXX in Durban and being invited as a special guest for the spectacular waterpark festival H20 (15,000+ people) as well as appearing on radio shows hosted by Sean Tyas, Judge Jules and Tiesto. December sees Pierre tour South Africa with a supporting cast of both South African and UK DJs and is the launch pad for his new double CD Trance Adrenaline.
Lee Haslam "Pierre has established himself as one of the leading hard trance producers of today. His notoriety is well deserved and he has a glittering career ahead of him."
Trance Adrenaline features the best of Pierre Pienaar’s original productions & remixes alongside some of the hottest tracks and production talents around at the moment and is a showcase of where Nukleuz Green is now. Ranging from stripped down, slow, groove-based trance infused with house and electro, then up to vocal based trance and uplifting trance, then moving onto the harder and darker side of things with tech trance and hard trance.
With tracks from artists such as Mauro Picotto, Fonzerelli, Marcel Woods, Tito Puente Jnr, Ibiza Knights, Rachel Loy, Will Atkinson, JamX, CRW, S.H.O.K.K. and many more.
Andy Whitby “I’m a big fan of Pierre’s material, be it the tougher end of hard-dance or the uplifting side of trance. He has a rare talent that always keep dancefloors packed and DJs excitedâ€
