Hardcore???

[Neble]

What is the general Feeling toward Hardcore? Its hardly ever booked on the eastcoast and I was just wondering why?

[brkbt junglegrl]

b/c its a thing of the past?! the trend died out a long ass time ago.

[DeAtHmOnGeR bEaR]

Musical preferences change.... hardcore just happens to not be very big in DC right now :crying2:

[brkbt junglegrl]

long live jungle.

[iminxtc]

ol hardcore... i recently just got into it.

[DeAtHmOnGeR bEaR]

Excellent, Amanda :yes:

I've been a hardcore fan for a while now.

[candypink]

hah this thread makes me laugh. i believe your best bet on the east coast would be nyc would it not? i personally like my hardcore happy. regular hardcore scares me :bolt:

[iminxtc]

ACEN owns me.

[brkbt junglegrl]

happy + hardcore

those 2 words should NOT be put together

[iminxtc]

happy hardcore is a tad too happy for me.

[brkbt junglegrl]

i dont think NYC has much either....at least from what i have observed.

[DeAtHmOnGeR bEaR]

I love happy hardcore, but I'm also a big freak for anything with the quick, hard beats!

Philly sometimes has some hardcore, and I know of a couple of kids who are putting together a hardcore party out in MD... but that's about all I'm aware of in this area.

[brkbt junglegrl]

Its pretty big on the West Coast...mainly b/c their massives are HUGE and consist of everything from hip hop to happy hardcore. Newbies tend to latch on to HH real quick.

[DeAtHmOnGeR bEaR]

I actually hated HHC when I first joined the scene, I was all about the dnb :shrug:

But my tastes have broadened, and I'm a firm lover of breaks and all types of hardcore now :wink:

[Neble]

Well, I been in the Rave scene fro about 4 years...3 of which have been djing Hardcore...I only ask becuase Hardcore it Huge over in the UK now. People are eating it up. Hardcore really isn't Happy Hardcore anymore. Its alot more trancier than it used to be. The hardcore Scene As changed quite abit...

I posted this mostly to see if people had noticed a change or paid any attention to it at all. I know the Eastcoast/Virginia is primarily house, breaks, and Jungle/Drum and Bass, and used to be very anti-hardcore. I'm also wondering if there was still animosity toward Hardcore.

I Love Hardcore! I Would love to see Some well know Hardcore DJs perform at buzz. I was also wondering if some people feel the same way...and if Scott brown, Brisk, CLSM, Breeze and Styles, Hixxy, Sharkey, Kevin Energy or any of those guys were booked to play buzz would you go??

[DeAtHmOnGeR bEaR]

I would DEFINATLY go see some good Hardcore DJs if they came to Cubik :yes:

Hey, here's a suggestion. Go to the Book Em Dano forum and ask for Hardcore :wink:

[the sex molesters]

i used to love the HHC... then i realized that yes, it really IS too fast. now i'm way down with the old skool. still love Dune though. wish they'd come back....

[E:go]

I still love happy hardcore, especially because they spin in so many of the old 80's tunes for the remixes. It's fast but it's definitely a great workout to dance to (or at least try to dance to).

Unfortunately, there is still a lot of animosity towards hardcore around here. People like it when it's played here, but really won't support it at all. That's too bad.

Everyone should check out some of the stateside hardcore djs as well. A couple good sites are http://www.sonicfury.net and http://www.pitchedup.net.

[JadedBlue]

[jungster]

*ahem* I actually find your comment to be quite ignorant. Anyone who knows me will attest to the fact that every time I go to a hardcore party, I'm usually totally sober.

Hardcore is a pathetic excuse for a genre of music. It takes no talent and is poison to the good music listeners ears. Keep it far, far away. Horrible!

[JadedBlue]

What happened to the :plurstick: ?

[beetfrk]

fuk plur.
