Hardcore- what is it?

I personally think its the hardcore of all types of dance music mixed in together in a big remixer and put over that beat and out comes lots of different stypes which different djs specialise in- which is why i dont get people who say this or that djs stylie isnt hardcore when it's still over 165bpm and still get the hardcore raverz going

like a secret religion, always there but hidden

yeah, its a hard definition. I once saw somewhere to think of the word.. And this was defined as a Hard core with a soft outer i.e hard beats and vocals.

F**KING AMAZING! thats what!
but i find it hard to explain too. I tend to say that it's Fast paced Trance like stuff with vocals and better sounds! (it's not how i see it but thats how i explain it and people tend to understand it like this and know what i mean...) - And i'm ready for the Assault from Smilee now...

another name I call freeform is trancecore..

definition of hardcore to me:

take the best of trance, the best of drum n bass, put them together and speed it up. You get hardcore.

Listen to New Years Day, you'll hear some oldskewl sounding jungle/drum n bass right after the break.

"hardcore's much harder than trance anyway"

obviously that's the whole point.

Not harder - faster... most hardcore isn't hard, just fast. e.g. boomstick is "hard" but not many tunes are except some gabba stuff. Shooting star is not "hard"....

Its all just speedy beats.

A Cross between drum n bass and trance would be something like this

Man you all got it wrong. Hardcore is a lifestyle it is something that unites us. Give us peace. Something thats hidden man, something that give us a rush. Without drugs. Hardcore any form is a drug itself. I'm addicted, are you?

The music unites us, the beat frees us. They can't control us.

Yup! What i like about the hardcore scene is that everyone is pretty open minded. Look at how many different styles of good music there was at the fasttrack on NYE- nothing compares to it. I think that's why hardcore ravers dont have any set dress code or any real image- theres one thing that unites us and its music and drugs, which is why a hardcore rave is the ultimate
