I remember Joey Riot & Seduction did make some great collabs in the 2000s.




what is it about Seduction always selling off all his assets, then doing a disappearing act, One of the biggest Hardcore Rave labels and Happy Hardcore labels and one of the top 90's Happy Hardcore raves promoter and of course has one of the biggest DJs during that time, only to come back and do it all again for a SECOND time during the peak UK Hardcore, only to sell it all off again.

Hardcore Heaven and Uproar was some of the best raves i ever went to, and and Impact and Maximum Impact some of the best tunes of that era

Even his early Hardcore Raves tunes was entering the UK top 40 pop charts and has much has i loved the bedroom style producers back then, Seduction was definitely not one of them, already knew what he was doing from the get go.

Has he ever made a bad tune?

There have been the odd dodgy mid 90s Seduction tune but most are decent all through the impact catalogue tbh, but he wasn't the most popular DJ by any stroke. I went to god knows how many events over the years and he wasn't on all of them by any means. You'd have the regular names at most, like Slipmatt, Dougal, Brisk, Sy, Clarkee but Seduction was on n off.

(Darwin & Haywire - Another Life) You have to be kidding, we had 15 yrs of that same dated sound. That crap is dead and buried.
Is not even real Hardcore, just Trance riffs spead up to 170bpm.


Well the 00's sound is what I want to hear (at least updated versions of it).

Hey if the Kniteforce followers get to hear updated versions of old sounds why can the 00's get their due, which given that its the last time hardcore was really profitible of any kind. I would think there would be a market for updated 00's sound.

I'm not saying to have the other sounds as well. We need variety, and that is part of the problem as to why UK/Happy hardcore is in the slump its in.

Not many producers nowadays make any decent stuff compared to years gone by, that al storm mix on hixxys rinse fm show was awful. I respect al because he made some great tracks in the 90s and 2000s but not feeling this new 24/7 stuff at all and also I don?t like that rob iyf. Just my opinion by the way guys, I much preferred the Marc smith mix on the hixxy show.

The kick sounds like someone slapping a cardboard box. Maybe it sounds better on a big system(!).

Wasn't expecting this track to be this style. Prefer the style after first breakdown. After second breakdown more hardstyle.

Nice track but too slow.

I like it. Just two complaints I have about several more recent tracks. Choruses are too short, and I'm not a fan them adding in hardstyle for the second chorus.
