... in other genres.
I learned this week that Inverse & Orbit1 (from hardcore) together made up Bioweapon, a pretty big name in the Hardstyle scene. Inverse is now 'Code Black' in Hardstyle and has made some pretty huge tracks like this gem:
Obviously Ham has gone on to be very successful in Drum & Bass under the guise Hamilton.
Joey riot is doing very well in the European hardcore scene with Destructive Tendancies. Can you think of anymore hardcore artists who have gone on to be big in other genres?

Joey's part of Destructive Tendancies? **** didnt know that. But then I only got one track, their remix of Out of Control by Geminzers.
Not that I liked that kind of Hardcore, but isn't Carl Cox the biggest name that changed genre?
But I'd rather see a list of Artist that do well in other genre's, but still make Hardcore. Joey is definitly still here, and I could argue that it's not too far from "home" (considering Scott Brown has always been active in both brittish and dutch Hardcore scenes) to be considered another genre :P
Re-Con, Squad-E(?), Teknicore

Lumin8 & Cheever became Toneshifterz, although now that's just Lumin8 on his own.

Those that I know off the top of my head:
Brisk & Ham were hard dance producers under the guise of Stimulant DJs! They had some minor success. :)
Sy & Unknown released some tunes as Cheeky Trax, that saw some light on some compilations. A bit of trance and donk.
Al Storm is making some drum 'n' bass inspired stuff as "Eat Rave". Some nice stuff there!
Re-con (Mike di Scala) is a part of Ultrabeat (with Chris Henry who's also had some HC releases), he was also part of Rezonance Q that had some tunes like Someday and Sweetheart. A year ago or two he also produced a very big pop tune (can't remember which one).
Nightforce (freeform producer) has seen some success as his hard trance/hardstyle alias Stardriver.
Ephexis made some psy and released an album as Re:Creation (download it! it's for free and it's awesome!) and also nowdays as FireFarm (drum 'n' bass, drumstep, etc).
Squad-E is D:Code and Hypasonic.
Dougal & Gammer made a few Clubland tunes as Club Generation, but they were mainly just based on some of their hardcore tunes.
Maybe a bit unrelated but Darwin produces music for some Konami games. Like the tune "Lighter Than Air" with Ant Johnson was written for a Konami game (some dancing game). Also "Why Not".

Re-con is probably the most successful artist outside of hardcore. As already mentioned he produced a number 1 hit for Ne-Yo. Not forgetting his previous success in the uk charts with ultrabeat. He also makes a lot of popular house music using his real name Mike Di Scala.
Said it before but huge respect to him for continuing to produce/DJ hardcore when he's clearly making a lot more cash in his other projects.

Both Re-Con and Technikore came into hardcore from other genre's so I don't think they really fit the opening question 
Jon Doe does though. Very successful hard house/dance career.
Sequential One or ATB, trance producer. UK number 1 with 9pm.
DJ Isaac, moving from hardcore through hard house to hardstyle.
Both Billy Bunter and Slipmatt have gone on to do big things in various scenes.
I'm sure there are loads more.
