this is a really stupid thing to post by the tracid guys. it's like me saying that because i've released a few hard techno numbers in the past that all new hard techno artists have totally copied my style. total rubbish.

it seems to me, from this statement - and those fortcoming releases - that tracid have quickly grown board of big bassline hard trance and when much of it was labelled hardstyle and blown up by the Italians and Dutch, thought that they would change directions and winge about it. Hmm... Yes they had a big hand in the build up to hardstyle but no-one copied Tracid. Influenced by it yes, but not copied.
