Hard Dance tutorial

completely over played in its day but you can hardly mention Hardhouse Classics with out This



Loved this track and still do



and this probably doesn’t come into the hard dance but you can’t mention hardhouse with out de vit



Lost count the amount of times ive seen the whole club bouncing around to this lol



[quote]jon_fisher (10/2/2009)[hr]hard dance to me was all the tracks and dj’s that didn’t want to be pigeon holed into either hardtrance or hardhouse. it was around 2000-2001 most dj’s started calling themselves harddance djs :slight_smile:



this is probably the most obvious one lol and one thats probably been posted on this forum a hand full of times already.

This one please!



Jon most that you posted were classic hard house, thing is, anyways, burning up was made back in the mid 90s and still has that ‘housey’ feel, it was back in the Trade days when hard house originated and progressed more and more away from house. Today you can’t even see a similarity at all, weird huh.



Anyways



here is more BK genius, actually you know what, i should have said in my post: HTSL BK (hard dance)

hehe :slight_smile:



BK - Revolution (above)



BK - Bad ***















I also nearly posted: Breather - Come On (Prime Mover Mix), i know that Jon will agree, top top tune!

to be honest roben there are sooo many good track from back then that i couldn’t remember the names so i just posted links to the ones i could remember.



i do prefer the techy hard house from 2002-2004

Oh god no, please dont give people more sub genre name ideas! lol



‘tech hard house’:smiley:

hahaha lol it was the only way to describe it

suppose the tech era of hard house 2003-2004 was ok, where more and more djs were playing the old Hydraulix and RAW stuff. was good but the crowd didn’t take to it much.

some suggestions from me… tbh any defective audio\base graffiti, karim stuff is all good. the harder the better!! hopefully the embeds work, neevr tried it before



















and what some people say is un-remixable and an all time classic



Good shout matt thumbs up

ok guys your calls were much better i think mine were a bit to old.



BUT PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOOD DON’T MAKE ANYTHING LIKE THIS

Hi people. I am new to sonic academy. i love hard dance, especially hard trance and hardstyle. i hope sonic academy will come up with hard trance and hardstyle tutorials soon because this are the only 2 genres that i would love to learn to produce. mainly in UK they play more hard trance with some hardstyle, hardstyle is huge is holland.

have a listen people!

If you want to sound like anyone in hardhouse then theres only person

and that is Dom Sweeten(Base Graffiti, Defective Audio, Tomcat and

afew more to boot) the sounds and tracks this guy makes are unreal:cool:

Love to see some tutorials on how to sound like kidd kaos and dark by design.

Ive tried to find tutorials on the hard trance genre and there is so little around and althought it has elements of trance,hard trance is ultimately a different feel.

The one thing i would love to learn is how they create those distorted raspy leads.Yes it has a lot to do with various distortion plugins,hyper compression,saturation but ive been trying to emulate some of kidd kaos’s sounds and its been a challenge to say the least.

maybe some members could help me with this.

Hard trance tutorials please…:slight_smile:

For me Its gotta be BK


















Just to re-itterate…



HTSL BK (Hard Dance)





No to hardstyle (sorry)

I’d love to see some tutorials on how to sound like Kidd kaos or Walt Jensen??
