Another thing... There is a reason why promoters shy away from genre such as hardcore.

Look at the typical demographic of a hardcore fan... Young, student , unemployed (typically) and spends $20-50 on meth for the night and buys one bottle of water from the bar and refills it in the dunny whenever they need more.

Compare to a dnb or house fan who might spend that $40+ or on beer or vodka all night.

A turnover of $4 vs a turnover of $40? Covering costs or making some small coin as opposed to funding DJ Arsebanger from Newcastle out of their own pocket?

All so some kids can jump up and down in their fluro vests until 6am and crap on about being Hardcore until the end?

Tell you what I would rather do.

I knew you would say that ;)

Hence why I said the word "typically" :kiss:


Even if (for arguments sake) 500 (being generous) turn up at a hardcore party and 200 of them DONT do the bottle refill trick (also extremely generous). What would you rather do as a promoter?

5-800 pissheads at a dnb show or the alternative?

Its a culture thing. Its never going to change. It hasnt so far so it wont now.

no it doesn't really....

It gives a false impression that you are planning to put on another party and would like to know what/who everyone wants to see.

There are probably already many threads that people can talk about hardcore in...

This thread should be closed, its a waste of fuckn space :doze:

Thats exactly what I was thinking.

Is there ANY hardcore played in Adelaide anymore? And by that I mean real, techy hardcore like what Lenny played last time he was out. Even that wasnt overlly hard. All I hear is the same of 909, a cheesy sample and a riff that is made from a sample thats been used 45 times before.

Is there actually any progressive & different stuff out there. Are there any producers trying new things and new styles?
*



agreed. that's the style that i play snd produce, more industrial/experimental, harder hitting basslines, more experimentation in melody and more techy in structure. Similar style to Lenny and Promo, artists like obviously Lenny, Promo, D-Passion, Ophidian, Taphage, Unexist, Tieum, Radium, The Dj Producer, X-Fly etc. so to answer your question Noddy, yes.

Pigsarse Matt! The truth is, most of the hardcore fans and dj's have turned into pissheads and spend a good amount of $$ over the bar these days :thumbsup: :lol: Not that it really matters anyways. And most of my mates are steering away from drugs. I have my limits with hardcore and agree that some ppl go a lil' overboard. But there are others that are dedicated to the music and the dj's can put on a real "fuck-off" show most of the time. :troop:
Hardcore shows may not be as successful as dnb and house, probably because most people see it as headache music and don't take the time to listen to it. It takes a while to get used to!

...So maybe u should get used to it Matthew!! :tongue: :wink:
