My favorite Producers are CLSM, Stormtrooper, Dair, Uplift, Stargazer, Fade, Storm & Euphony, & Luna-C! Sooo how Underground am I?! And who's the most Underground Producers?? And that's just Freeform, Hardcore Breaks, Sike, Okay, forget it... This is too opinionated, I would say whatever sounds good to my ears, but not always what's hot! I just like the weird ones...... I guess I'm a DJ to myself, which is really true because, I listen to my own mixtapes only and I'm still bedroom! I also Street Team for Infared, which I lost touch with but, I hand out demos and mixtapes too... See Chicago doesn't really Rave like UK, 300-400 is about the max, and they like Hardstyle... I just sit in the back with my 40oz. and dance later and blog a review even later... Chicago, is mostly a Gay Club community which I have no problem with but I'm still 40's and Crunk ass parties!

"underground" is relative.
Still, from your list, I'd say it's fairly easy.....
Look for producer/DJs who are consistant in output, creativity, and wider "scene" contribution. Compare to "big event" line-ups. Work out which artists get regular play regardless of affiliation. Note disparity. Laugh knowingly.
( btw Stargazer has been "Cube::Hard" for a while, and Fade aborted about 5 years ago )
P.S: Buy "Hardcore Underground" 1/2/3. ( What it says on the tin ). Also "Hardcore Addiction" and "Hardcore Nation: Next Generation.

Do you know DJ Elekid (Jerry)? He plays in Chicago and he use to be a candy kid, dont know if he still decks out or not. He use to wear a Krispy Kreame box for a hat.

I knew he had gone to Hard House after 2005 (He came to Atlanta in 2005 and played at my 1st rave), but our friend "Tommy P" had told me he was doing Hardcore again as of early this year.
