All this talk about music being hard and not hard enough. What is hard to you?
I think a good hard beat could be anything from house to techno to trance. I dont think hard always has to be build ups and synths. A good acid house track is very hard as is a really well done breaks track. I remember the rhythm masters used to makes some really funky but hard house remixes. Sometimes i think buildups are really over done and its nice sometimes to hear a "hard track" that actually incorperates different sounds other than buildups to get me going. |

I can not point out all of the elements. For me it's mostly about the bassline - the element that actually gets me jumping & moving to tracks. The tempo it is going, how heavy it hits, and what background synths accompanies the bass beats to me, makes the big difference if it is "hard" or not.
I don't think build-ups have much to do with making a track hard. |

If the bass from the speakers shakes my room or puts cracks in my wall, then it is hard \o/ |

Seeing all the reviews sometimes i think buildups have everything to do with making a track hard for a lot of people |
