moved 3 tropes to trivia & YMMV
Deleted line(s) 15,16 (click to see context) :
* ArtistDisillusionment: When hardcore suffered [[LighterAndSofter a drastic change in direction]], shortly thereafter the two members of The Outside Agency no longer felt that they could operate without restraint in the genre and started focusing their attention on DrumAndBass. Some years later hardcore had transformed yet again, and this time they were very pleased with the [[DarkerAndEdgier direction it had taken]]. They quickly started producing and playing hardcore again with [[HeroicSecondWind renewed vigor]].
Deleted line(s) 28,31 (click to see context) :

[[JustifiedTrope Justified]], because of their GenreBusting attitude in general.
* SampledUp: Many quotes from other pop culture media are sampled and incorporated in their songs. Here’s [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5wGyVQRcR9I Backpack Wisdom]], that takes this trope [[ExaggeratedTrope up to eleven]] with samples from rap songs. For more examples, see ShoutOut below.

''The Outside Agency'' is a Dutch HardcoreTechno act composed of DJ/producers Noël Wessels (DJ Hidden) and Frank Nitzinsky (Eye-D). They have a GenreBusting musical style, as they produce a variety of hardcore with elements [[{{Industrial}} from]] [[{{Dubstep}} several]] [[DrumAndBass other]] [[GangstaRap genres]]. Their tempos are extremely varied too, ranging from 110 to 280 BPM. Their SignatureStyle includes dark and brooding atmospheres that both artists add to their music.
