[QUOTE="spaceface, post: 852107, member: 2243"] Slightly off-topic since i have no idea what modern hard-style is (or original hard-style for that matter, feel free to post some examples :) ). But i don't really think that it's old skool that is timeless. I [I]am [/I]an old skool fanatic though, so let me explain. My dad still listens to Bob Dylan and Bruce springsteen religiously, and i actually heard my grandad refer to the beatles as "modern rubbish" a few years back (he is in his 90's now...). It really hit home to me that every generation is the same - we all love what we grew up with. So it makes sense that most folks on this site feel like this about old skool, hip-house, hardcore or whatever it was you were into when you were younger. So as far as i'm concerned, no one here is unique. As regards recent music though, i think you're depriving yourself if you decide that there is nothing decent any more. The variation within music is infinite and there are always decent new tracks to be found. It can be a pain sitting on beatport, juno, or whatever and going through tons of crap, but i remember spending countless hours back in the day in record shops listening to piles of 12"s and only buying a few in the end. Nothing has changed really. There are still great tunes coming out. Just make the time to find them. How long did you used to spend at the local store listening desk back in the day? And my own personal tip is Simoncino (yes he's been around for a few years, but if you don't follow modern tunes, he's an essential artist). He's tipped as a real back-to-roots chicago/detroit techno guru, but to me a lot of his tracks sound reminscent of early italo deep house, which is what i really love. Bottom line, you'll still find amazing new tracks if you make the time. [/QUOTE]
