Hardcore dance music



Hardcore (sometimes 'ardcore) is a term that has been used to describe a variety of related electronic dance music styles over almost two decades. While the term "hardcore" was first used in a musical genre title with the emergence of hardcore punk in the late 1970s, it was also used in the early 1990s in reference to both hardcore techno, an intensified and harsh form of techno that emerged from Europe, mainly Netherlands, and breakbeat hardcore, which emerged in the UK from acid house and breakbeat.
