I recently listened to a couple of oldskool sets when this track came across my mind:

A fast-paced track with a crazy melody...

What kind of genre is this exactly(the usual hardcore stuff sounds different)? Do you know similar tracks?

Hard trance.

Hard Trance, check out anything played at Mayday 1994 - The Raving Society. The whole thing was pretty much that.

mid 90s Happy Hardcore.

Hard Trance at the time was more out of Germany and featured slower beat, blistering acid and boisterous synths. Think Cocooma, Gary D, Legend B and the like.

That sample doesn't have much of a happy hardcore vibe though. It's more like Curare - Schneller Pfeil, which is definitely German hard trance.

you'd probably like the 'rave' and 'trance' compilations on ZYX Music records, hypnotic records, mms and Frankfurt Beat Productions. stuff like:

Alien Factory - Destiny

The remix of Destiny is a CHOON

Def old Prodigy like Out Of Space, Voodoo People, Their Law, No Good (Start The Dance), Break & Enter, Fire, Everybody In The Place (155 And Rising), Charly (Trip Into Drum n' Bass Remix)...stuff like that. People may call them "Cheese" but I think the spirit of Rave music is in upbeat and energetic..not always so serious dance music. Just about having a good time, and the music should reflect that.
