RE: haaaaardcore
hey thea
was off for a couple of days. back now!
harcore programming is not so easy as many people think i reckon. if you are leaving the 200 bpm aeria you have to programm very exact - cause of the speed. eveything ends up in a big noisy mess. you have to hit exactly this point where music goes noise.
high speed won't admit to have 10 tracks or whatever at the same time. you have to choose wisely.
for producing hardcore you don't need much. a computer and a mixer. and gooood samples.
in fact the most important thing is making samples. you need a strange taste and a well working brain to get fast structures.
hardcore is a completely understimated form of music, describing exactly where we are living right now, or better, where we are going to.
industrial, overload, fast.
i think there is not much good hardcore around, most is fuckin' boring party music without any intellectual elements (oh yeah! good hardcore IS intellectual). most people who listen to hc sometimes just like the fastened rave-beat. you won't see many dancing to 'till morning. don't misunderstand me! i don't dance to hc 'till morning either. but i do respect it as a unique style of muzac, invented by a future generation.
fuck the system because it sucks US! (did you get the double-meaning pot headz??)
