Inspired by JP's hardcore-video-download-threads I was wondering what has happened to all the big hardcore DJs from the past. Because I haven't really been into hardcore since say 1999 my knowledge could use an update.
I know for instance that a lot of names (Pavo, Isaac, The Prophet, Lady Dana, Gizmo) have turned to the hardhouse genre (recycling all previous hardcore hits and samples).
Patrick van Kerckhoven (founder of the famous Ruffneck/Gangsta label) is now spinning drum & bass, others like Nosferatu, Trypticon and Endymion have continued with the new Enzyme label.
And if I'm not mistaken "David Forbes" (the man behind "Questions Must Be Asked") is the same person as Davie Forbes, of whom I attended a DJ-set at Rave The City @ Rijnhal Arnhem back in 1995.
And there are of course DJ's that are still into hardcore (Darkraver, Paul Elstak, Buzz Fuzz).
Anybody has some information on the whereabouts of DJs/groups such as Dano, Weirdo, Neophyte, Rotterdam Terror Corps, Stunned Guys, Marc Acardipane, Bass D & King Matthew and so on? |
