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.
I'm still a fan of the earlier Trance influenced stuff. At the time it made a refreshing change from the increasingly cheesy happy hardcore. It sounded like people were still experimenting and not scared to try different things.

I've had Off Yer nut 2 for over 10 years, and yet for the life of me like Fury's mix (or was it Ramos?)

I've had em since they were released, i grew up with them they were kind of my staple hardcore albums...Ramos was on OYN 1, Fury was 2 :)
if you're on about the pure techno set, that was Ramos on off yer nut 1, quite understandable if you cant get into that, techno is a very niche genre, nicher than hardcore!
i used to listen to that mix whilst I was doing my homework - it was monotonus and didn't really distract me so it worked quite well!

I used to have both. ME & my brother bought them at a store that sold things cheaper around spring/summer 2000. I don't know what happened around 2002, but I only had Demo's mix left, but then I lost that aswell :(. Around 2007 I bought Off Yer Nut!! 2 again, so technically i never had it for whole 11 years. I usually played N64 games while listening to them :P
