Paul Elstak Biografie – Book – Boris van Zonneveld

[Dutch] For almost thirty years, Paul Elstak, godfather of hardcore, has been reaping the rewards of his greatest hits Rainbow In The Sky, Luv U More and The Promised Land. But success had its price. In this candid biography, he tells journalist Boris van Zonneveld about the incredibly difficult years that followed that success. Paul was thrown up and pelted by the gabber crowd, hit rock bottom and ended up deep in debt, but also made a successful comeback. In this intimate portrait, Paul Elstak comes clean once and for all, so that he can face the future with an unburdened conscience. As he himself says: ‘This is not a book full of bragging about how good I am. This is my real story, how my life really went. That did not always deserve a beauty prize.’ Boris van Zonneveld (1978) has been writing as a journalist for magazines and newspapers for twenty years and has followed Paul Elstak's career closely. He published about the dance world in the magazines DJ Mag, Nieuwe Revu, Musicmaker, Interface and Buma Stemra Magazine. Easy to read, short chapters, for a nice insight into the life of the Godfather of Hardcore - Paul Elstak! Softcover 1st edition.
