squad-e is a really solid producer, c'mon, you have to be deaf to say otherwise. his tracks always sound amazing. if you don't like his style or think he lacks originality, fine, but he definately is a good producer. his basslines alone are insane, if you know what "preset" he is using, let me know.
anyways, what's a preset to you. every producer uses presets every now and then, and usually modifies them a bit, adds effects to them and improves them as much as possible. saying OMG SQUAD-E USES PRESETS just makes you sound completely ignorant..
I don't know the preset - probably Nexus something - but i can direct you to a very similair sample....

Well I have like 3 more respect points for him now.
Discogs dude, Discogs.
You have more respect for him because he takes his own Hypasonic tunes speeds them up and calls it a Squad-E remix? I wanna punch him in the face for it.

No, I have more respect for him because I like the originals. Not keen at all on his hardcore remixes of his own tunes - just read my earlier posts in this thread.

I direct you to this:
When Squad-E first emerged into the scene, I was impressed. His remixes of Promised Land & Out of My Hands were incredible. Ohh, how the mighty have fallen...
A string of reasonable / acceptable hits ensued. But now he continues to persist with remix after remix of god awful clubland 'classics.' And the fact they just finished up remixing a Tinchy Stryder tune says it all really doesn't it? Get back to the bounce scene boys, or wherever the hell you came from. Hardcore does not want you. Rant over!
Not yet actually, i thought a few of you chaps might say he's jumped on the bandwagon like the rest of so many other hardcore dj's so who's to blame him? Although this is true, artists such as Darren Styles & Re-Con thrive to produce quality tunes which maintain the respect of many in the scene and full time ravers alike, whilst also pleasing those who enjoy there music on a regular basis. It is clear Squad-E has far too many frailties to be respected by the hardcore industry. Rant over!!!

Or is it...
Yes it is
I agree with this.
Personally, I think its unfair to slate Squad-E if we don't slate Re-con. He's probably just as bad.
*cough* L'Amour Toujours Remix */cough*
*cough* Pizzaman Remix */cough*
That said though, Re-con made a couple of nice tunes.... eg. Gods Child. However, he successfully managed to **** that up by mashing it with 'Open your Eyes'.

this would be my line-up!
Luna-C & Kutski - mashup mayhem
Kev Energy & Mark Smith - godfathers of hardcore, mean and nasty
Brisk & Scott Brown - vocal, bouncy and then the gabber
Joey Riot and Darwin - UK hardcore at its best with a few twist and turns along the way!

Hell yes, out of my hands, what a tune!
Also, speaking of Re-Con, I think he has a pretty interesting way of producing tunes, at least he had back around 2006. You could hear it was him instantly. Don't think I've heard many tracks from him in recent times, so dunno if it still holds.

Also agree with Whittle's rant. But i do think although he's fone down hill lately Recon is a much better producer (or writer before wh get into the producer or writer debate again). Used to be much more consistent in terms of release quality and originality. His stuff with Ultrabeat is a ****ing joke though. That Use Somebody remix ffs that's awful lol
