I absolutely love this song. It's an hour long and you can download it, it's their official site.

Blizzard Tracks - Freeform Mix

I'm new to this. How do you download it? BTW, I live for techno!

Go to File > Save, and you should be able to download it then.

also, possibly worth mentioning. It's not actually one song, it's a mix, where DJ's take multiple songs and "mix" them in and out of each other so they match up and sound like a continuous song. It's very popular in electronic music.

That's actually gabber. Gabber's ok, though I still prefer the 4/4 stuff between 130/150 bpm.

This is neither "Techno" nor "Gabber". This is Freeform, a form of Hardcore Techno.

Get your facts straight.

(As a fan of Electronic Music I resent everything under it being called "Techno". Techno itself is a subgenre and doesn't sound anything like this.)

Don't mistake, I'm not dissing it. If anything it kind of reminds of a cd one of my friends had from 1994 called "Trance Hardcore 200 BPM" with Moonraver, Spastikman, Iconoclast, etc. I guess gabbwe's defined by what... distorted 909 base drum? Truthfully I guess your right though - I generally heard two different names for hardcore, happy hardcore and gabber, and typically thought that if it was 4/4 and above 160 bpm then it was generally classed as one or the other.

This is hardcore freeform..
Certainly not gabber

I prefer cheesier stuff..

Yeah, and you gotta keep in mind that Gabber isn't as melody oriented. The main melody is usually something resembling a hoover, and there's no prominent bassline other than the kick.
Wow, they had Trancecore in '94? I only knew about the eras of Jungle/DnB. It's a big shame about how a lot of today's "hardcore" is merely that, sped-up Trance. I used to be so into it, but the abuse of Supersaw leads/pads wore down on me a LOT.

If you ask me, I think old school U.K. Hardcore is the best. It's melodic without sounding too commercial which is a huge plus for me. That reminds me I should probably download some of the older Bonkers CDs. Good times, haha.

Sorry if I sounded rude, like I said I'm a little OCD for genres, haha.

Too bad old school is so annoying to mix.
And btw, i got some bonkers in plastic..

I can guess why. Too much melody clashing?

Cool by the way about having Bonkers.

I love this mix, Just the whole thing makes me feel good, I really don't know how to explain that but it does. (:
