heh, please explain the difference in pronunciation? Maybe difference in spelling instead? Either way, Billy Daniel Bunter can shove it up his ass, even if he did invent it all.

I was just going to ask, what the hell is tranceore, it seems the older I get (and the more I sleep), the less I know about music, there's genre's popping up everywhere! Although I was once a member of the Hokey-Cokey-Core.

That's just standard Hardcore to me but if anything else then it's Freeform.

Trancecore was the term for today's freeform in the 90s, back when Sharkey, Kevin Energy, and few others were pioneering the sound. Think back to Sharkey's mixes on Bonkers 2, 3, 4, & 5.

I got to agree with your there, Bonkers 7 IMO was trancecore (note my spelling) in style

the word Tranecore has a good explanation on the back of WOW what a rush: a freeform hardcore experience, which was released back in 1999

http://www.discogs.com/Various-Chemical-Generation/release/191883


something you can actually use as a citation for wikipedia! :P


inside it details
"Bringing music styles together and working against segregation in the dance scene, some people call this Dance phenomenon TRANCE CORE, a tag which has caused mixed reactions from the would be purists of Hard Dance. But many of you will already be familiar with this term from for the merger between Hardcore and Hard Trance/ House."

thats copied word for word (capitalisations and everything lol)

not real point in me posting it, but makes for an interesting read i guess..dates dont really matter, each to their own really.

personally i think trancecore sounds and looks odd, don't really care what people call it though :)

I read, that Trancecore/Freeform showed up, when a couple of Psytrance-producers decided to mix up their sound with Hardcore Techno elements. I know, that Hardtrance is not very far away from Psytrance, but maybe someone is able to give me more information about the beginning of that Hardcore style.

I gues a lot of genres switch their names, everytime a new generation takes over, although the sound is closely related.

To me trancecore was the GBT & RSR stuff that Bunter and Ramos started playing in late 96, early 97 and the great Helter Skelter Series 1 CD of Bunter & Ramos and then Bunter's United Dance 6 mix. This music was heavily influenced by German stuff like Spaceflower, United Ravers, EDM & Tunnel tracks which made their way over here in 94/95 and made it into Skelter, Dreamscape etc in 96 ish. M Zone and Mark EG really pioneered it then Bunter & Ramos put their twist on it.

I remember early 97 going to a Skelter and Ramos and Bunter played a whole set of it, the room half emptied within 20 minutes as it wasn't happy hardcore but it just blew me away, Bunter playing stuff like his Let The Music remix, Stargate, Listen To That Fat Bass on Spaceflower, Tardis To Brooklyn etc, absolutely amazing stuff.

Some of my faves:









If anyone gets the chance to buy these, some of the best early trancecore/freeform ever written was on these mixes:

http://www.discogs.com/Various-MastersWork-Dance-Series/release/204251

http://www.discogs.com/Various-United-Dance-Volume-6/release/42898


then by mid 97 people like Eclipse, Helix & Fury were making some of the greatest music ever made!
