The less hard house that makes it way anywhere near techno the better... its like a Yorkie except it is only for girls - oh, and playing at children's parties and Heaven. No eurphoric breakdowns/builds and really no woop-woops, please.

Really what has hard house/dance to offer techno apart from a big dose of water and knock any edge out of a tune? If you want roller coaster precussion you'd be better looking at SUF for some direction. And IMHO hardstyle is the bastard son of mokum playground music and well... arse.

Only my opinion... but damn right ;) But then again if it makes you smile then its great for you.

buzz, buzz, clanky clank, boom boom boom, peace.
