The Decade of Hardcore Techno: 1998 (DJ Mix Set)
Low Entropy

"1998 was for my the last year of the first decade of Hardcore in which there was an over-abundance of great records and tracks. The sound had gotten more fierce, distorted and harder on the one side, and more experimental on the other. The Breakcore scene was forming and evolving into its own way apart from the rest of the "Hardcore" cohesion, Proto-Frenchcore was made, and an onslaught of Industrial influences.
What followed were for me meagre years - until Hardcore got on its track again and there was once again a flow of great releases - just my two cents, as I know a lot of people enjoyed the period "inbetween" that followed.
This is once again a multi-genre mix, with Speedcore, Breakcore, Acidcore, Doomcore and everything tossed up. To make it authentic, just like with my 1997 mix, I only used tracks from records that I owned and listened to in 1998, but that also made an impact on the "scene" back then. Enjoy - if you dare!"
