Yeah, Gabba is OK for me as long as it doesn't come to Terror and the other noisy styles. Speedcore seems to have become a hunt for the fastest song in history, but I really liked the tracks SFOB posted in here a few months ago.
I do enjoy Mixes using different genres/styles Gabba, Breakbeat and Happy Hardcore more than purely ones. The Al Twisted & DJ JFX mix on Hardcore Nation Next Generation is one example for some kind of mix-up.

I totally agree with Hard2Get.
I've listened to 'Hardcore' a couple of times. With that lead synth melody it is so totally and obviously Scottish it couldn't be anything else! 
It's so close to being brilliant but needs a lot of work. Every decent track tells a 'story' but at over 12 minutes it runs out of things to say so, imo, it needs to be condensed. 7 or maybe 8 min's is enough.
The sample at the start could be mixed in somehow? That'd be awesome.
Something else, as well as the "Hardcore" sample to add more variety?
I could go on but this has all the raw elements to make a great track.
....and of the other 5 or 6 tracks I had the time to listen to there wasn't one I didn't like, which for me is very unusual.
I think you've got some talent mate. Now you've got to hone and polish it.

or just a game of croquet hitting the ball into 1's mouth  thus causing a gag reflex because of deep throat.

Like spelling, for instance. ;)
I had a quick listen to your tunes, not my cup of tea really but production wise it didn't sound too bad. :)

I've taken your advice n added sum more vocals the layouts kinda changed tho as i've somehow lost the sample i used at the start but have no idea how also the name of the track is gonna change from "Hardcore" to "I touch heaven" thats because of an accapella i got from looperman n it goes really well with the track so i think in a few days it shud be up on soundcloud

ok. Extreme terror. I really liked the idea, was pretty decent.
A few notes
Firstly, if my screen saver turns on before the track finishes, there is an issue. WAAAAAYYYYYY to long.
2. It built fairly quickly, but didnt move on. After the piano had been going for a few minutes I was getting quite bored. Given the name, I was hoping for something fierce and belting - but that's just me, I was wrong. I liked the choral section around six minutes, and around 8 minutes was disappointed you didnt bring it forward more, so it was just under the piano rather than buried. Was also thinking it could have used a dirty synth layer level with the piano, possibly in a different octave to differentiate them (one or two octaves lower than the piano). However, that is my style and what I like, not necessarily yours and what you like. Oh, a belting kick really would have done it justice.
3. samples. Please, only use one or two. Maybe three if they are all from the same movie. Between the 15 of them, they really destroyed the feeling you were trying to build. Screams and fearful voices, crying etc would have helped build, the guy just talking brought it down I thought.
I thought it had the potential of being a very very heavy industrial track that I would have had on permanent rotation, but unfortunately for me it didn't go there.
