Artist bio

X3SK, also known as Carlo Kara, is a German DJ, producer and mixing and mastering engineer active in the harder corners of the scene. Rooted in Early Hardcore, Next-Gen Hardcore and Energycore, his sound combines precision, explosive energy and a strong underground mindset.

Starting out as a DJ at a young age, he built his name through underground events across Germany, especially in the south. Moving into production became a major turning point, shaping his identity as both an artist and a technically sharp engineer.

Beyond his solo work, he is one half of DLC, signed by Cyndium, together with Death Row, fusing modern early hardcore with raw energycore intensity. He is also founder of the DLC Academy, where he helps upcoming producers improve their production, mixing and overall sound.

His catalog includes tracks such as “Warning”, “Tormentum III Anthem” and “Evolution”, alongside a growing run of releases as DLC.
