(Hardcore/Gabber starts at ~160 BPM and goes all the way up to ~300 BPM). Definitely too fast.
Gabber/Gak. Man I haven't thought about these bands forever!
The shizit was my favorite band for a long time. And rotterdam terror corps.
Not sure if "bands" is necessarily the right word here. Most of the artists are solo producers, and them touching anything acoustic for their music is a rare sight these days.
There's definitely still a huge scene out there for the Early Hardcore stuff, with most of the crowd going into their 40's now. And a lot of the originals are still performing to this day. Most of the scene is concentrated around the Netherlands though, as loud, obnoxious music is definitely in our collective DNA. But we are seeing increasing amounts of tourists traveling from far away just to be part of the larger events like Thunderdome, Masters of Hardcore, Ground Zero, Defqon.1, Dominator and so on.
Fair enough. I do call even single hip-hop artists 'bands' in normal speech as well. Possibly just a linguistic quirk on my part.
