I haven't been into hardcore for very long... or been on these boards long... but apparently I don't necessarily listen to Hardcore or "Good Hardcore".
So can some people name me some artists who are good to start with when listening to hardcore??? Because, as much as I want to get into hardcore, I can't if I'm listening to the wrong influence. :P

Just sample a few compilations and download as many mixes of forums like this one as possible that should set you off nicely for now. And keep checkin back on here, eventually you'll know all about good hardcore.

Well, people say DJ Fritzy isn't a good hardcore DJ... he's the DJ that got me into HH...
What about DJ S3RL, DJ 0blivi0n, Scott Brown, and Kevin Energy? Are they good Hardcore artists?

There's a lot of Hardcore out there to look into... Don't take people's opinion on what's Good or Real Hardcore for facts, but make your own opinion I say. A lot of people on these boards have really narrow-minded opinions about good hardcore, so be aware and don't take people's opinions too seriously.

Music is all about personal taste - no one can tell you what to listen to in order to get into a style of music. You like what you like simple as. If what you are listening to now is good for you then that's fine...it's good for you. Other people have their own music taste and if you set about changing your taste to suit other peoples then I doubt you'll get into music at all. Go with what you like.
The best thing I think you could have asked for is a list of similar artists and DJ's as the one's you are listening to now. I bet you'll discover more on your own doing it that way as only you really know what you like - after a while you'll really start to find you hardcore music taste.

It depends what type of hardcore you like theres the happy hardcore , happy vibes , hardstyle type of hardcore and more depends what you like more nice and peacfull or the full bouncy sets and different things like that.. Oldskool hardcore wil set you of in the right direction mate thats what got me into hardcore ..
Scott brown and kevin are good like but theres is thousands more artists out there who can do alot better, not everyone likes the same tunes so dont listen to other opinions because they might like something totally different a bit more hardstyle compaired to others so everyone has different opinions on who there best artists is..

S3RL is one of my favorite new artists, mostly cuz I like really bouncy, frantic songs.
I don't know who 0blivi0n is, but Scott Brown and Kevin Energy are bordering on legendary.

I'm guessing "Bang!" means good...
0blivi0n is a friend of mine, but more of a friend of DJ S3RL's. He and S3RL REALLY got me engaged in the Rave scene... DJ Fritzy got me into HH... :P
