Biography Paul Elstak (Dutch)

For nearly thirty years, the godfather of hardcore has reaped the rewards of his biggest hits Rainbow in the Sky, Luv U More and The Promised Land, but success came at a price.

In his frank biography he tells journalist Boris van Zonneveld about the incredibly difficult years that followed that success. Paul was vomited and pelted by the gabber crowd, hit the ground running and ended up deep in debt, but also made a successful comeback.

In this intimate portrait, Paul Elstak cleans his house once and for all, so that he can face the future with a clear conscience. As he puts it himself: 'This is not a book full of chest-throbs about how good I am. This is my real story, how my life really turned out. That didn't always deserve the beauty prize.'
