Cartoon Choon was underrated as well. Lovely piano on that.
Finally, some 90's stuff.
Ham's remix of Above The Clouds is without a doubt one of his finest tunes.

Just had a closer listen and I've spotted what you're talking about. The guy really was a wizard of a engineer and his composition skills were just as great.
He generally had a very unique production style. His tracks are highly recognisable in the same way as someone like Scott Brown.
Damn, I miss Ham. :(

And of course his work with others:
Angel Eyes with Brisk
Here I Am with Demo & Justin Time
Etc. Etc. Etc!!!
The man was a brilliant hardcore producer and he is definitely missed on my end!
All great tracks. I could've named almost every single tune he's ever made. It's easier to pick out the bad ones. He was so consistently brilliant.

I'm going again with another 3: Be Happy, Epic Riff, Love U Tonight
And another: Dancefloor Is Open, Anything For You, Skream
And again: Heart's Desire, I've Got A Feeling, Let The Rhythm Flow
More: In Your Eyes, This Emotion, Here I Am
Some older stuff: Life '98, On & On, Shooting Star mix
And now I'm bored. But I enjoyed being positive about hardcore for a change. Shame I only managed to do it by talking about a producer who left the scene.

The Bang! mix of Twelve Midnight that he blatantly engineered his one of his finest examples of engineering as well.

Come again was my favourite Ham track. Was a hidden gem if I remember correctly, on the b side of a better known tune.
Hardcore is definitely missing the brisk and ham sound.

I agree...this man is an unbelievable producer! Too many hardcore tunes to mention but does anyone have a digital copy of Ham's 99 Breakbeat Remix of Musik? I've messaged Hamilton on soundcloud but nothing as yet! I've also messaged Demo but no response and Slipmatt said he didn't have it. Gold star for anyone that can help :)

all his Kniteforce stuff like Most Uplifting remix, Green Eggs & Ham (is that what its called?), Higher & Higher, his kickdrum stuff like Is There Anybody Out There, Here I Am, The Big Spill, his amazing remixes of Shooting Star and Cloudy Daze, About U with DNA, Jump To The Groove, Epic Riff, the instrumental rip off in 2008 (can't remember title right now), he is a true legend of our music!

Yes indeed. Seriously, though, it's easier to name the tracks that aren't great.

New Style was a very decent one too, from about 1998 I think.
