i associate it with the old Scooter sound- endless summer etc...

To me it's more like fun from time to time, but i can't enjoy it for longer than half a minute anyway

i didnt compare them in terms of their musical similarities, thought u'd understand that.

i compare them because i think all those genres are useless.

so is your face.

Happy Hardcore has always been an misunderstanding genre especially in the past..

iinteresting...i didn't think you could classify Prodigy as Happy Hardcore. I thought happy hardcore was the trade mark high bpm cheese with high pitch vocals thats always blasintg outisde video game arcades over here.

You're telling me that Prodigy - Outta Space/Music Reach/Wind It Up aren't happy hardcore

Older Prodigy is vastly different than the stuff they've done recently, their sound has really evolved.

I just dont see the simlarity between that and the chipmunk vocal high BPM stuff.

Yeah, same here. I'd put the early Prodigy stuff as Oldskool/Jungle. The Happy Hardcore stuff (the chipmunks) sounds more refined to me. Depends, too, on how pedantic one is about the genres of course.
