What makes a track an "Anthem"? Like, all the Hardcore cds coming out today say "## Hardcore Anthems!!!" Well, not EVERY track can be an anthem. One thing I liked about the old "Happy2bHardcore" cds, he actually picked 16 tracks from either of the beginning of the year or end of the year that stood out in the raves.

An anthem is a track that lots of people like...
In hardcore that seems to be a predictable vocal track... so yeah nearly every track can be an anthem .

Most albums these days are loaded with the DJ's own labels tracks, there are the exceptions of course, hardcore underground being one.

yeh a big example of that theory is the hardcore euphoria album, each mix is just basically promoting there own tracks/remixes
on the note of anthems, i dont really hear many anthems these days, 2 tracks that i class as anthems are
scott brown - neckbreaker
scott brown - make the beat drop
there just a personal taste tho

An anthem to me is the song that gets the whole place singing along. A track that most everyone knows the words to.

I think that a REAL hardore 'anthem' needs to have 1 thing and 1 thing only.............
The ability to bring emotion to u.
Sounds nuts but everybody on this forum will have an anthem that reminds them of 'feelin great' A tune that brings butterflies to yer belly and pins n needles to your brain!!!!!
Its hard to say what the 'ultimate anthem' is cos theres so many
Jack Speed - Everybody here tonight(bass d-king matthewmix)
A Sense Of Summer - Techno Round The World
2 of the finest.

In my opinion, nearly all of Bang!'s stuff are anthems, Force & Styles - Heart Of Gold remains a good anthem.. also for some reason, Nakatomi - Children Of The Night, and Charly Lownoise & Mental Theos stuff aswell.

i don't think it's the track itself that's the anthem it's what that track means to you for me it's either;
bang! - shootin star
or
force & styles - heart of gold
they always take me back to wen i were about 11 goin 2 an under 16's club nite with all my mates - probly the best days of my life so far... feelin all nostalgic now :)
