He also played the decks all over europe and in countries like the USA.
His favourite styles are Hardstyle, Jump/Tek, Oldschool and of course the early Hardcore is where his roots are! When Ruthless plays, you can expect fast mixing, exclusive tracks and many different harder styles in one dj set.

After the release of ‘Ruthless & Vorwerk - I Feel Like Dancin' and ‘Jack & The Ripper - Whores In Da House’ things start to blow! Ruthless' solo records like 'Remote Control' and Knock Out, were big hits in Holland, Belgium and France! The following records of Ruthless & Vorwerk / Ruthless / and also Noise Provider were all big clubhits.
Most of his records were released on Ruthless' own label: 'Square Beats' and ‘Square LTD’.
