Freeform, at least at that time didnt change much, which is why a lot here seem to like it.



Freeform is more to the routes. It's biggest change would have been the break away from Happy Hardcore in the later 90s during the 'Trancecore' days. Listening to Sharkey's mixed on Bonkers 4 or 5 and comparing to say Bonkers 12 or 13 shows an evolved format.

For the mainstream it went less Happy Hardcore as time went along and only really kept the vocal part from Happy Hardcore and usually remaking the classics.

I was here back in the mid 2000's but registered under a different username. I just remember it being far busier. I do remember 95_was_the_time complaining about the current hardcore. It's a shame that the forums are dead now and that hardcore is in shambles.

This is the last hardcore forum on the web I believe, so if it were to go down one day, not sure where I would converse with other hardcore fans except at events.

I don't even know what hardcore sounds like these days, I'm guessing it's mixed in some modern "E D M" and 'trap' crap elements to try and win back some teenagers. The teenagers today are all clue'less though. I bet not a single teenager today even wants to explore underground dj's. All they listen to is chart and vevo shit music from the US. This is why us 30something/40something old ****s can be proud and say we explored the underground dance scene. Give a 15 year old a cassette tape they probably wouldn't even know what it is. fools.

saying that, I bet up north (like Sheffield or somewhere) the teens there have this whole heritage thing with scousehouse/donk scene because it's like passing the MC mic down like a baton to the next generation... but that's just cheap waltzer ride music basically.
