Why do alot of ppl from across the alantic not like Raver baby and jelly baby ect.
i find it very intresting any infomation about raves/music and that in other countries. I have startd to get the impression that alot of Americans or canadians dis like this sort of hardcore.
could you tell me why ?
is it bcoz, and this is not a slate at all, you are behind in hardcore in a way. Do you feel that after awhile your hardcore scene will change like ours has. he uk hardcore scene died down in 99 and has only came back staring form l8 2001. Will the same mistakes be made over there too, or have you learnt from us and feel this will not happen over there(us).
Do you fink the sort of hardcore hixxy and ufo and breeze, styles will get big over there in time.
any info would be much appreciated.

Breeze is playin' here april 13, wOOp! =)
But as far as those sounds go, they aren't big here cuz the flavor of the moment seems to be DnB and NRG, so the harder, bangin' stuff is in style around me atleast, the baby labels , in my opinion are good but are liter and more harmonic sounding. the scene here likes it hard =P

because most north american's prefer a harder sound. for the most part from a good portion of djs i've talked to they all pretty much feel the same way i do. it's great that they are pushing a new style, but it's not really want we are looking for.
keep it up if people over there are eating it up. for one it makes a new variety of hardcore (if i can call it that  ). i feel that there are several labels that are pushing stuff in different directions, which i feel is the best thing for the scene.

i personally like the raverbaby sound except for #4... but most dj's around here just prefer the harder pounding style... it just adds to the variety or different hardcore styles which is always a good thing

I love the tracks that RB, and JB have come out with, and so does every body i know.....
My god how long have those mice been living your back fat?!?!?! |
| virus |
i hate that beat that hixxy insists on using!!
its not very energetic either.. i like my stuff upbeat and bouncy, not laid back and trancy

i agree with virus. i hate mixing from a nice happycore beat into that beat hixxy uses on the raver baby releases. some very quality choons, but that beat REALLY annoys me. and it sounds exactly the same on every track. same snare drum, same kick, same bass.
anyway thats my whinge.

Aww come on Jelly Baby 1 is cool I think. Dunno the track names cos I've got a promo copy and haven't checked yet.

| Brian K |
maybe if he sampled 4 of the same kick drums overlapping each other it might sound a lil better =P

I always used to like the beats Hixxy would use like My way, i love that bass . I Find now , with his new labels and songs that ( aprt form the Trance style) the bass is almost sort of anoying, i mean , they only sound good with more trancy songs, it's like you can't even mix them into classic HHC. Well you can but it's a noticible change, not your usual flow. I don't know, i like the majority of the songs but i think maybe they could have been written a bit faster, i always have to slow down my set in order to mix them in, same with VinylGroover ( when he used to be happy lol ) i mean, C'mon, pick up the damn pace

hixxy's songs always have been slow,round the 155bpm mark. i can think of a few that are really slow like jackattack and his remixes of a sense of summer's on top.
then all his stuff on bonkers 7 - how slow was that?!?!
i'm fully agreeing with tripnosis here,up the tempo a bit!!!

99 saw the time when hixxy mad ehis trancey, way to trancey hardcore and it woz way to slow. i fink hixxy now makes and plays bangin sets, yeah its no brisk or Menis but still banging.
End of the day more hardocre, diffrent hardcore is good for hardcore, if ya know wot i mean.

yeah i agree definately pick up the pace..... does anyone SERIOUSLY play hardcore at that speed anymore. i like to play fast, and i find ravaer baby's (and that vinylgroover toytown) runs right away. not to mention the SOUNDS used also makes them a pain in the arse to mix into. i normally go from an evolution tune to make it sound as flowing as possible.
drugs is not the answer... drugs? is the question... yes is the answer |
| Brian K |
i play that slow, if i'm playing an old school set =P

hahahaha well some of us aren't old enough to be able to play old-skool hahahaha. yeah fair enough if you're playing old-skool i guess.... but then would you really chuck in a raver baby tune in an old-skool set?

The beat on the Raver Baby tracks is much differnt, and I dont particulary like it. I dont think they are real pounding either. I have RB 1-2-3 and when I bought them I thought they would grow on me, but they haven't. I also am a little dissapointed with the new track "Just accept it" among others from a lyric point of view, and well, I donno. I really dont like RB and Jelly Baby at all. Thats not to say these tracks aren't good/ my girlfriends favorites songs at the moment are actually Raver Baby releases (Come Together and Castles).
Peas,

I think Hixxy made sum classic trax and is still really experimenting wiv his style, if there selling well good luck too him just not my cup of tea.
