This aint hardcore ffs it's bloody popcore how many "UK Hardcore" producers have made tracks that sound almost identical to this
and seriously where the **** have the hard kicks gone??? seriously i've never listened to so many "UK Hardcore" tracks with absolutely pitiful kickdrums over the last few years it's disgraceful imo and the so-called "Top-Tier" really need to take a step back and let some new blood come through and not just the ones they choose coz 9/10 times all they've done is copy one of the "Bigboys"

I don't think it was an entire flop. His productions gradually got a bit better before the end of the year. His return definitely did not live up to the ridiculous hype that people on here gave him. He's been gone for over a decade I don't know how ppl thought he was gonna come out full-blast with some incredibly mind-blowing tune.
A lot of younger ones or those new to the scene might not know his tunes well enough to appreciate his return. I loved his happy hardcore, but to be honest I wasn't expecting any major new tunes all of a sudden, or a bunch of 96/97 style tracks. I personally would welcome a full time return to that style but I'm sure many wouldn't.
I think Vinylgroover announcing he was thinking of doing a hardcore track or two generated more hype.
along with all these comebacks what happened to dune?

Dune is long-gone by the looks of things. DJ Raw (as he's known) plays the odd event in Holland (and/or Germany?) as "Dune" and doesn't even mix - just plays one track after another. I would LOVE for Dune to return, but really can't see that happening :(
*edit*. If I'm wrong and there's a Dune PA / proper DJ set coming up at any point, then I shall be in attendance - don't care where it is :)

I have made a few tunes with hard kicks myself, it is just amateur producing but if I can throw in a few hard kicks that snub the majority of crap that has been out then that can't be a bad thing

you got them up on sc or yt would like to hear them my main "problem" with ukhc is it's just not hard and there really doesn't seem to be too much difference between a lot of tracks these days they all seem to follow the same pattern more or less i've noticed it with gabber aswell and imho producers need to go back to the old skool style where pretty much every track had something different to offer sure a lot of them may have used simaler samples etc but they did something different now all i hear is the same old shit time after time the same melodies, buildups, breakdowns, drops, basslines bl di bla di ***** bla in hardcore terms i would say the uk is a joke because the majority of the tracks just aint that hard
my opinion if anyone would like to tell me i'm wrong feel free but deep down you know i have made a very valid point

My main "problem" with ukhc is it's just not hard and there really doesn't seem to be too much difference between a lot of tracks these days they all seem to follow the same pattern more or less, i've noticed it with gabber swell. Producers need to go back to the old skool style where pretty much every track had something different to offer, sure a lot of them may have used simaler samples etc but they did something different. Now all i hear is the same old shit time after time the same melodies, buildups, breakdowns, drops, basslines bl di bla di ***** bla. In hardcore terms i would say the uk is a joke because the majority of the tracks just aint that hard

You have a valid point, i struggled to read it, please look at your newly punctuated quote and you'll agree it's more readable.

I think overall Joey and Kurt reviving the rave scene with a fresh new approach through Power Stomp is very significant for the scene and ensures it has a survival. As such the future looks promising to some extent although on an International standard the rave scene has gone to shit with the Australian scene dying up the ass as well as a few other countries - Canada etc... which had larger crowds in the past.
RIP good ol days...

Well, arguably, that's actually being technical for the sake of getting paid but, since in Gammer's case technical = getting paid, it's the same proposition.
This is ****ing hilarious. Oh no, he did exactly what people expected him to do and got paid for it! He must be less of a human being! It's not like he could actually enjoy doing that or anything.

Well I can't speak for Australia but as far as Canada goes it's alive and well. Certainly doesn't have the int'l exposure as it did when Hullabaloo was around, but still the scene is lively. Plenty of UK Hardcore DJs old and new are still in the scene. Some of the Canadian DJs have played at HTID ITS.

Ooh nice man! He's a real good guy been an active dj in Canada for over a decade. Judging from his fb it looks like he's having a real good time there in the UK
