hey i was looking for some songs that are happy hardcore like the s3rl style, but have that digital voice like in little kandi raver. im looking for really upbeat songs and have a catchy toon. im already aware of dj's like hixxy, dougal, gammer, scott brown (fav dj), and styles. i need some new songs because i am playing at my schools talent show.

I've gotta say thats quite an awful tune. If I had to contributed anything it would be something like this:
probably not what you want, but imo much better
might come up with others.... probably not though
you say your "playing" at your talent show? what are you playing on do you have decks?

Well, you could check out:
"Rave Forever"-S3RL
"Move With You"-S3RL
I think both of those tracks feature Tamika on vocals. Not many producers are doing anything fancy with the vocals nowdays. It's just a cut, dry, & plain vocal sample.
Well see since I'm only 16 I needed a good pair for a good price so I got two cdj 200's cause that was the best thing I could find at a low price. And I'm usin a pioneer djm 400 mixer. Altogether they're great for what I'm doin but I hope to upgrade in the near future.

little kandi raver is probably S3RL's most awful tune tbh :/ (going as far to say it's worse than pretty rave girl. the drop in that's sweet though.) S3RL's been releasing some new stuff that's rather similar to his more popular hardcore sound. Go follow him on soundcloud. Quicksilvers post is pretty close though. God... I hate the original of that track hahahaha XD so rot your teeth happy.

well as much as many people dislike those songs i have to consider the way i introduce the raving culture to my school of the lifeless people who only listen to counrty and rap. in this sense they hear the lyrics to these songs and see how fun raving is (in a sense), and get more interested in EDM. thats my goal for the school, plus its fun to have a lot of people dancing around to these sort of things.

OR they will think that raving has some pretty gay, childish music. For the most part Americans think that almost all EDM has no substance at all due to its lack of lyrics, yet it's never the lyrics that make a person wanna get up and dance it's pretty much the beats.
anyways, i would rather stick to some of the harder UK hardcore, even some hardcore breakbeat tracks, as well as freeform. i personally love all subgenres of hardcore, but i just think it will be easier for people to enjoy these other hardcore subgenres than assume that hardcore fits the stereotype of being real cheesy.

Well as much as I love the uk hardcore, whenever I play it around my friends they don't seem to like it as much. So when I showed them the s3rl stuff they seemed to like the upbeatness and fun sounding, the other option is to play some good ole hardstyle which seems to be popular either way.

The way I see it, Breakbeat Hardcore and Freeform are probably as far as you can get from accessible and easy-listening music in the genre.
People like cheesy music, that's just the way it is! =)
For your show, I would go with upfront sounds, and remixes of stuff people might be familiar with.
Eufeion - Zelda's Ass (VIP Mix) - this track is a GREAT remix of the all-time classic Legend Of Zelda's theme, you can't go wrong with this, EVERYBODY and their mom knows that melody, and will be humming along, even it they've never heard Happy Hardcore Before.

I still consider S3RL UK Hardcore. You might as well blast noobs with what you like, there's no sense in doing the whole, "This is what these people like, but this is what I like." type of thing. Let them hear what you like, and then let them explore for themselves. They are not going to budge if they don't find at least one thing interesting in the music, no matter what you expose to them first.
