Article is new enough and long enough. The hooks are verified to the cited reference and are the correct length. I personally prefer alt1 and think UK hard house should be wiki-linked because I had no idea what it was (didn't even know it was a type of music). The only concern I have is the use of Skiddle as a source. Not only is it WP:SELFPUBLISHED but Skiddle is a for-profit ticket vendor and is not an independent publication. This content needs to be cited to a different source, and the skiddle source needs to be removed from the page per WP:VENDOR and WP:SPONSORED. Once this source is swapped for something better this article can be approved.4meter4 (talk) 17:30, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- Thank you for the review 4meter4. I did consider Skiddle sufficiently reliable as it was indicated as a "staff" article, and there was nothing really controversial, however I have now removed all reference to it and used different sources in the updated article. I've also updated the hook to ALT2 per your suggestion. ResonantDis_tortion 09:10, 2 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Looks good. Alt hook is verified to the cited reference and is the correct length. All of my concerns have been addressed. Approving hook Alt2.4meter4 (talk) 14:30, 2 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
