Hardcell & Grindvik

How bloody good was the stuff they came out with circa the late 90's and 00's?

I remember buying everything that they released every week with my measly pay cheque and being absolutley blown away by it all?

Stuff like Square, Bitching Betty, Set it off, Silver etc etc...

And not to mention "Live Technique"- that is on my top 10 mixes live set list of all time.

Id forgotten how bloody good they are. Christ I miss em.

Looks like I gotta hook you guys up with some sets I got from them, that have been in my hidden gems collection for years.
Love these guys, Nils is one of the greatest influences on my work.
He had a way of making Tribal bang brutally tough, which I still have yet to see anyone match.
The only one I can hear that is getting to that level is Mattias Fridell.

oh man, you have to share :-) They always released absolute perfection. Track after track was completely beautiful. I think my views are slightly biased by the fact that the Gain line box set was some of the first vinyl I had ever seen (Techno-wise).

In the next few months expect some pretty broodish material to start surfacing.

Some releases with that driving knock I like to do, and others might be at 150 bpm...

a lot of the swedes are reverting back to their older styles
not quite as banging but it's getting more "techno again"

joseph capriati's sidechains ep on drumcode was fantastic
and beyers new ep on mad eye something to die for are really going back there.
still got the modern sound but the grooves are a bit more tough and having it.

I'll hook you up way before hand monger no worries, I'll check it out Henry.
I just think the swedes were on to something with how warm their stuff was for a while there.
Was never really dry, maybe its the low-end trickery, but Hardcell just had this broodish quality to his material even if it was on the congo bongoesque side.

I've heard some fairly recent stuff from Bacto and believe they still got it, but it's also a thing of families and accelerated responsibilities now.
Pratap has held the crown I think.

I'd really like to see more Mhonlink, Bacto, Hardcell stuff out.

I really liked some of their earlier releases, as you had pointed out.

Both of them seem to have lost that harder edge and have toned things down quite a bit. I remember for a while, they were definitely overtaking the older generation Swedish guys.

Definitely one of my favourite techno "duos" during that period. They rival and possibly surpass the Marco Bailey + Redhead duo.

By eons.
Redhead did most of the production in that duo regardless.

How many duo's are there out there worth their salt?

Advent vs Industrialiyzer and British Murder Boys springs to mind. Though unfortunately the latter is finito.

advent & industrialiyzer are not in the same league as hardcell & grindvik of old

Perhaps not, but I'd still say they are doing some great stuff right now.

Throw Radial in there as well.
