i never really played 'gabba' as such...

i only ever played the hard fast stuff for about 5 years since the really early industrial strength sound came out. it was called hardcore techno at the time. drop bass network was my fave label and i loved the network 23 stuff. then i think when it went more dutch and got labelled gabba i went away from it cause the 'techno' seemed to go out of it. not that i dont like gabba - i'll have a right good stomp to it if say producer or scorpio are no the decks - it just really wasnt my thing.
