well the other day i was trying to explain to my mate the main differences between happy hardcore and hardcore the only one i could think of was there seem to be more lyrics in hhc than hardcore and probably a more violent beat in hardcore(like it hits you more)

Gabber is more aggressive n is mind**** music i agree:)Happy Hardcore tends to have lower ( quite considerably) bpm's.....happy hardcore also tends to have more d n b style breakdowns in it...Gabbe ris just bnasically harder:)

I kind of agree with Lixx I don't like gabba but what he's saying is he likes hardcore.
Original hardcore is more drum & bass. Remember if it wasn't for hardcore they'd be no drum & bass!!!!

dutch "hardcore" was basically hollands answer to house, hence gabbahouse. it had it's happy phase in 95/96 and then went back hard.
the newer stuff coming out of holland now a days i don't particuallary care for. the stuff i loved was more the 93-96 dutch hardcore. 98 had a number of decent tunes put out but none quiet as great (imo) as the older stuff. the production was usually a lot better and they were basically breaking boundraries back then.
i guess they are now too but i don't care for the slower stuff =P
bring back the angry guitar sampling rob gee days ;)
hhc is usually a lot "cheesier" and not as easily respected by other genres than the generalized "hardcore."

I remember on another message board when someone had the same question... Deacon summed it up best by saying "HORAY FOR EVERYTHING vs. **** YOU"

While we're on the topic of gabber, can anyone tell me what the deal is with the 'hybrib' stuff Scott Brown plays (which I think has also been referred to as Nu-Style Gabber)? Like, I personally can't tell the difference between this and the Rotterdam stuff. Is there one, or is it just another horses**t genre?

Yeah in case I didn't say it clearly enough, I love happy hardcore, all the stuff from cheese to breakbeat to freeform, even a little happy gabber maybe. But straight out gabber hardcore, terrorcore, speedcore, all that stuff IMO is just mindless music that gives me nothing but a headache. I won't slag people for liking it but I have no problem stating that it just ain't my bag.

paul elstak played hard noisy (and 3/4 timed) gabba over here a few weeks back, i really dont like him.. or gabba anymore. I mean even after half an hour it starts becoming mindless and you find yourself doing aerobics on the spot.. maybe if i had a huge dose of drugs i would have enjoyed it like all the other speedfreaks.. but whats the point.
I say cheeze all the way.. and of course i love freeform and less cheezy hardcore just as much. but c'mon give us some melodies.
