NightSoul i would have tae agree with 95 - 96

and only have tae say one word that says it all for me the event

((reZerection)) the equinox 95

whenever you look someone like me in the eyes, we demand absolute respect cause we are HARDCORE
Brian K my faves would be 94-95, just a big fan of the ruffer 4-beat hardcore and this year w/ those yummy raw elements releases & ham producing more =9

"As punishment for your desertion, it's company policy to give you the plague."
DJ Mouse 96-97 for me,around about the bonkers 2/hardcore heaven II era when i first got into it

--------------------------------------------------
DJ Mouse - "Winning a war doesn't determine who's right.... winning determines who's left"
Dj Tripnosis hmm, i'm thinkin 96-97. the ruffer hardecore was still being played but along with a bunch of other awsome tracks. ya definatly 96 - 97

Annex wow i wish i'd been into the scene long enough to respond.. *sigh* :)

ah well... i will learn more.. yes.. much more.... mwa! and then.. i'll come in and answer with an objective, retrospective view!
and or, i'll just sit here cackling, cuz i feel sorta like an evil genious or something today... (maybe it's cuz i skipped classes to sleep or something, and i'm overenergetic, i don't know)

Potatoe
Brian K hell yeah, heist knows the score! big up pianorama and fat kickdrums!

"As punishment for your desertion, it's company policy to give you the plague."
DJ Pathfinder i prefer hardcore from 1993 and happy from 96 - 97
tracks like time ,or stompy stuff. butt also breakbeat with pianos an vocals.

You can't see me,because i am the future.
Midway_raver 95-97...but 96 has 2 b my biggest fave from i listen to Helter Skelter pax from then n wish i was there
!!!

Like a bolt of lightning it's so frightning..Get ur brain now we're igniting
manic 95-96

" Hardcore is a feeling, not a fashion" DJ Scott Brown

I was sent to outer space to find another happy place. Now i'm left here all alone, a million miles away from home.
M.C Menace 95 to 96 because thats when i discovered happy hardcore and the first year was hearing everything for the first time. It was amazing.

M.C Menace - were raving from 7 till 11 were ravin in a hardcore heaven
DJ Bunnyboi I would have to say 96 even though I didn't even know what hardcore was until 98. But I have heard so much about it I would have to say 96.

::MAKE EM BOUNCE::
justrich First of all great topic of conversation.. :)

I am going to have disagree with most people here, I think the finest year of Hardcore is going to be 2002, and beyond...

Some of the tracks I have on Dubplate from the likes of Kaos, Ethos, Frisky (ATM), Storm, Energy, and the rest the crew are absolutely amazing.. Hardcore is changing for the better.. :)

Just wait and see.

cheers

justrich
Don Giovanni Hmm this is a damn hard question to respond to...I love it all so very very much.
I enjoy all the sounds of the different stages of happycore's developement. The more oldskool stuff is great. Love all the 4 beat stuff, but as I look through my collection I'd have to say the bigest time was in 96-97, so many big killer tracks released.
The year of 2001 was kind of interesting i heard alot of stuff i liked but i also heard some releases and changes i didn;t much care for. I'd have to sorta agree with Rich though, it looks as though 2002 is going to be one hell of a good year for happycore, but you never know...

BTW Rich when are you gonna play another happycore set in the Peg?...been since January that i've gotten any happycore sets at the local parties :(

silver Justrich: well I would have agreed with you if the topic read "want will be the best year" of hardcore... I think 2002 holds such much it's going to be the summer of hardcore!

----------------------------------
you, me and hardcore forever.
DJ Pathfinder i not agree that 2002 is the best year of hardcore there are many good tunes but not the same caliber as the older tunes.

You can't see me,because i am the future.
DJ Bunnyboi NOW IS THE TIME!!

::HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS::
PUREFM Ok, So.. I Got A New Question For Ya All Then.. If 96 Is Yer Fav' Year...

What Would You Say Was The Biggest Tune For You That Year.. And Why ??

I Gotta Agree, 96 as A Classic Year.. Good Choonz Coming Out Every Day, The Events Were Absolutely Packed, The Vibe Was High And EVERYONE Was Buzzing Off Those Happy Vibes !!!

=o)

But, What Was Yer Fav Choon In 96 !!!


Badboy,

www.purefm.org
farchid The best year for happy hardcore has been and probably always will be 95 all these new happy hardcore tunes really suck shit!

..._/-Cummin' up like a 747-\_...
PUREFM Well, I Agree N Disagree With That..
I Agree In As Much As 95/96 Rocked, And That I Dont Favour The NewStyle Hardcore As Opposed To The Old 4Beat Stuff, With Classics Such As Toytown, Party Time, Motorway Madness, etc.. Who can Blame Me..
Dont Get Me Wrong.. I Think That The Hardcore That Is Been released today Is Great, And The Production Quality On Most Of It Is Second To None At The Moment,
However Its Lost That Ruffer Edge It Seemed To Have In The Early Days.. Shame Someone Doesnt Bring That Back A Little..

Call Me Synical But, I Miss Those Break Beat Riffs Of Yesteryear.. It Doesnt Always Have To Be One Kickdrum !

But Anyways, I Guess Nowadays Everyones Gettin Hung Up On The "Happy" So Much, They Sometimes Forget About The "Hardcore"
Dont Mean To Piss No One Off, But.. Thats My Oppinion !
=o)


Badboy
Annex ok so this is sort of an offtopic thing, i can't help it

Riiiiiiiiich.. play more hardcore... you know you waaaaaaaaaaaanna (gah i hate those cheese commercials)

hehe ok.. and maybe it's not so much you waaaaaaaaanna... as i waaaaaaaaaant you to... but still ;)




Potatoe
CandyAss I guess 96 would be my favorite and the best track that came out that year is hands down HERE I AM!

As far as that goes have you heard any of the new stuff on KFA records from LUNA-C and crew? Probably some of the freshest music I've heard from any scene in a long time. Totally breakbeat and hardcore, you really need to check it out if you haven't heard these tunes.

i Do Luv Mi Oldskool BreakBeat And 4Beat Hardcore !!
=o))))


Badboy.

miss-mitzi i would say 1996 BUT its all goooode!!!

If computer games effected us kids, we would all be runnin around in dark rooms munchin magic pills and listenin to repetative music!
acidjoachim I think the middle of the 90's=94-95-96.
When the heavy underground house was growing to more commercial house like eurodance and so on.When the commercial Happyhardcore also founded gabber. But then the Rockmusic slamt in(Skaters!!!).
