Started this because a) it feels like no one really pays attention to the normal Track Of The Day thread, and b) it'll be a good way to discover some Freeform gems that I don't know about (i.e. fcuking loads).

Neither of those really do it for me funnily enough. :-(

There seems to be more talk of freeform on this site these days than any other hardcore, its brilliant!
i remember a few years back it was few and far between, nice to see its settled in :)
one of the greats...

definitely one of my all-time favorites. The Douglas remix is pretty incredible too.

@Ken: Yeah man, definitely! It's fantastic. :-) It's another reason why I started the topic, too. Just to generally keep the Freeform visibility/discussion/activity as high as possible. :-)
P.V.C. is sick. Do you remember/know 35 Cycles that was also on that release? Fcuking MASSIVE.

I'm not going to lie, a few years ago I thought I had a pretty good handle on what freeform hardcore was, now it seems pretty much anything that isn't deemed super happy (i.e. UK hardcore) is classed as freeform. Personally I'm not fussed as I'm not one for pigeon holing every single track, but I am a little worried that it's turning into a 10 pointer on the buzz-word bingo.

Agreed mate.
Where there's a bandwagon.....

I guess I must be guilty of this! I've not really been into Freeform for all that long, relatively, and without being familiar with it's heritage I'm kind of bound by the current definition.

Thanks , the full version has a lot more too it , rising acid , epic breakdown , I guess by definition I would call it Freeform Hardcore
Freeform for me , although shouldn't probably get into this debate is early Nu Energy, also Finrg , Hybridize , not forgetting earlier stuff like Helix and Fury and my favourite producer Lost Soul
But there's so much stuff that could be both , the genre is very diverse
anyway back to the thread

That's because what was once called UK Hardcore is now called Freeform.
