I can't believe this page hasn't been created yet! I'm new to wiki and a big hardhouse fan. Other hardhouse fans should help me out here.

"The music is often liked by younger clubbers because of its easy accessibility, meanstream attitude and suitability for dancing to while on Ecstasy."



This is almost true. By the way, I can't decide on if this article is on Hard House, or on UK Hard House, or on NRG. Someone should rewrite the whole article about original (aka. Chicago) Hardhouse, and make a new one for UK Hard House. These two genres are really far away from each other. Ishkur's guide describes the whole thing...

"Hard house is typified by a set formula of up-tempo compressed kick drums, signature acid house style basslines and the use of 'hoover' type sounds." Again this is UK Hard House, Chicage Hard House uses distorted TR-909 kickdrums. Acid house has offbeat bassline like uk hardhouse? Really?

Ah, at least this article should be renamed to UK Hard House, please...
