[@lordjashin7215]

[@Atty1997]

7:15 is so not Agony though sounds a lot like Radium

[@ZacAynsleyOfficial]

One of the best to grace the stage

[@DJFoxyOfficial]

Absolute goosebumps during the intro and then 20 minutes of destruction. PERFECT SET.

[@lucjansen7676]

This set deserved to be longer, at least 30 min of hardcore and then 30 min of frenchcore instead of 20-40.

[@oli3659]

No Frenchcore works too.

[@Glubre]

Yeah plus there's already Frenchcore in Mad Dog's set. Not that I don't like it tbf

[@djadaro]

🙌🔥

[@mitriroy]

Absolutely hands down best set of the night, so many classics and bangers. Non stop hakken for 20 minutes, this set gave the much needed hype and energy boost. Mad dog is the goat 🐐

[@marinejimenez4212]

When mad dog come energy come back!

[@Ometen]

@@marinejimenez4212 Its crazy how much energy reserves this set managed to activate. I am still getting ghoosebumps thinking on how strongly my body reacted to the music.

[@ForgottenEons]

Mad Dog should've been the last set of the night, he killed it with this 20 minute set, imagine if he had the full 45-60 minutes

[@razorsharp9850]

Actually him being earlier was much better for people. Many would leave before Sefa and Peacock anyways.

[@Everiony]

i totally agree

[@paulpremack4915]

Best set of the night. Mad Dog took the opportunity and knocked it out of the park. So much energy especially for how late it was. I’ve been watching qlimax since 2009, so sad it’s gone. And mad dog just gave it one last good bye by knocking everyone in the audience out of their shoes. Seen mad dog three times at defqon and once at Tomorrowland, met him at Tomorrowland. He is a living fucking legend LETS GOOOOOOOOO

[@franciscob361]

Qlimax 2009, my first Qlimax too....what a close of NOize Supressor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@misoduricaa]

Best hardcore dj for a while now

[@Ometen]

I thought I already pushed my body to it's limit but his set gave me tons of energy again. Even though everything was hurting and I shouldn't have energy left but out of nowhere my body activated some hidden energy reserves and I started going hard again. Just felt like a reflex. Happened automatically. At one point in pain and exhausted and suddenly 200% full throttle again. Wow ...

[@461emre]

That intro is superior

That is some FINE 100% pure hardcore sound! Glad that there was no uptempo shit in the mix! DJ Mad Dog did not disappoint!!!

[@gang9259]

He already deserved a spot in the previous years. One of the very few who actually produces hardcore and the best in the scene for me. Grazie Filippo❤💣

[@soylentgreen8466]

5:45 is where I completely lost myself at the party. holy shit hearing this mighty track at qlimax gave me so much energy. One of my all time favs in hardcore! After this set I was completly wrecked - but happy. (maybe getting on the bus at 11.30 that day and having a couple of beers the whole day contributed to that - but only a little bit ;-)).

[@back0ut92]

song name?

[@mikhaelpence570]

Good to see this set sadly it was not live but only a 20-minute set. Mad Dog deserves more than just twenty minutes.

[@CriticalThinker78]

The realest hardcore dj out there no shit kicks and shit beeps just hardcore as its ment to be ❤

[@marcovangelder1937]

It's a sign that so many people think this is (one of) the best 20 minutes of the party. Most complete events where like this in the past. The shitty 'hour long pauses' they call breaks or build ups are so sh&tty these days... Let's produce non commercial, full on energy tracks again please.

When I have a look at numerous sets of Defqon.1, Dominator and Qlimax, I must say that 2024 was the year when I finally switched from Hardstyle to Hardcore and Frenchcore

[@findlay1arches]

Mad dog crushed it. I can't believe they went with sefa and Dr peacock closing. What a joke

[@E-rad83]

Organizers will ALWAYS go with the money-makers before real talent. Hence, why the legends like Mad Dog get shit on with a 20 minute slot.

[@DJFoxyOfficial]

I do think that maybe if it was a 90 minute hardcore finale like in 2014 it would have worked better, like 30 minutes for each of our hardcore DJs. That would have been very nice tbh

[@findlay1arches]

Agreed. I thought this edition was so poor especially for the last edition ever.​@@E-rad83
