For this twenty ninth episode of our popular Electronic Beats TV blind test series we lay focus on the Hardcore and Breakbeat sound coming out of the UK between 1990 and 1993. This iconic era of the genre saw the sound break out of from its home turf of the UK, expanding throughout Europe and beyond. Eventually this led to the formation of Drum & Bass and Jungle.
In this episode we put a number of aficionados of the genre to the test, namely Acen, a 90’s UK Hardcore stalwart known for many classics on Production House. Dutch DJ Estella Boersma steps up, notably known for her releases on Unknown To The Unknown’s Dance Trax imprint. London’s Louise Plus One also joins, a staple of the scene in the 90’s through her performances with the Shtonka Sound System crew and her own ReRaveAll parties. We also welcome DJ Pooch another legend of the scene and producer under numerous different aliases, additionally joining us is one half of the groundbreaking Ragga Twins duo Flinty Badman and lastly Joe Nebula who was a beacon of light for the Northern English Hardcore scene and along with his crew launched The Warehouse in Doncaster, which went on to become one of the most vital club spaces for the sound across the country.
Please note that this video is not filmed in real time. It’s edited to create some tension so that you in front of the screen can guess as well. It doesn’t say anything about how fast the participants recognised the track etc.
All contestants receive one point for both artist and title correct, but only half a point if they can only guess the artist or the title.
