The new generation of Happy Hardcore has been a let down in my opinion, I mean come on. Bring on the OLD SKOOL!

I dunno, i think it's evolving quite nicely!
You got whacked cuz your weak! |

Well for a start its not even happy hardcore. Music has to evolve or a scene starts to die (period 1998-2000ish). The new UK style is amazing, so much feeling in the music, and imo most the new stuff is better produced. :)

I know how you feel, because I felt like this at first. I have loads of old skool classic vinyl (together forever, eyeopner, origonal heart of gold etc etc) and thaught he new stuff wasn't a patch on it.
But I gave it a chance, and now I love it, having just orderd and recived shin + wizzardy from NG and defintion of a bad boy from IMO.
The new stuff is defiantly more 'deep' and perhaps a little more serious compared to old skool happy hardcore (if you kno what I mean) Don't get me wrong I *love* the old stuff, but the new stuff is really growing on me. give it a chance ok? :)

i agree i love the old stuff but i think theres little better than inovation. .. .. u cannot recapture somethi9ng that has already passed .. it would become stale. .. u can try but it will never b as good. so u need to move on.

na i reckon the newer stuff is wkd. u cant have old skool forever man, things have gotta move on. i love proper happy hardcore man but it aint 1996 anymore. u just got 2 except that things change bud.

But in my oppinion I feel a lot of todays (new uk style tracks) are "over produced" if you know what I mean.

I'm really enjoying (and buying :)) the Evo and nex gen/bb stuff :) most of it's happy, but with a lovely new skool edge :)
But yes old skool is just that, old skool :) We need to move on, and new classics are being made, no-one is going to take the old ones away, and they'll still be classics sets - like the exllent sy one on bonkers 8 as someone mentioned :)

Wow at least someone agrees with me :)
It aint Happy Hardcore! Its just Hardcore innit :)
And Happy isn't Old Skool, but I dont really wanna get into that at the moment.

It's hard to explain but to me it seems the newer hardcore sound is missing something, the sounds are too "perfect" and the flow often to "Smooth" if you can see what I mean, It's bloody hard to explain. (Just listen to some older tunes then some newer tunes they just seem "over produced" kinda)

Yeah but i still think if the song is good (as in good meody) then it dosn't matter how overproduced it is, it will still be good :)

^^ oh, so you think the tracks aren't as good because they're too good?
Seriously, though, I understand what you're saying ... with the tracks sounding so clean it's almost easy to forget that this is supposed to be an underground scene, and our music just isn't meant to be produced to the same high standards as the more mainstream varieties, is it?
Honestly, it's a lose-lose situation for the producers here - pull off a half-assed effort and people say it isn't good enough, but work on it and produce it well and it becomes overproduced. What do you do?

stuff breaks in hardcore and happy hardcore. all its goood for is break dancing.
Thats y breaks enver worked out so much in hardcore and happy haredcore cause it does nothing.

^^ breaks add an extra dimension to hardcore, especially if the track's at the slower end of the spectrum. Me, I like a hard, fast kickdrum, but usually I wouldn't mind a bid of breaks action so long as it doesn't overpower the kick.
