This genre is completely fictitious. I suggest it be removed from Wikipedia. --63.100.44.98 16:53, March 23 2006

nonsense. here's just a few references; [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7], [8], [9], [10] --MilkMiruku 17:54, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
Hard dance is like a new grouping for stuff that wasn't as hardcore sounding. It's more to do with the "club" scene than the old "rave" scene. More BBC Radio 1 stuff. It's things like UK Hard House and Hard Trance. Some of the new hardcore stuff could become blurred though.
I notice on the front page that Happy Hardcore is on here. It's use on Wiki needs to be discontinued. The term is outdated - there is no such style. It's being used greatly out of context. --Revolt 18:29, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Nu Style Gabba

Shouldn't nu style hardcore/gabba also belong to the hard dance group? It can be often heard on harddance events (typical dutch scheme - starting with hardtrance, going hardstyle, ending hardcore).

[edit] Importance of Hard Dance

I saw hard dance was included as one of the main electronic music genres: Ambient, Breakbeat, Drum and bass, Electronica, Electronic art music, Hard dance, Hardcore, House, Techno, Trance, Industrial, Synthpop. I think hard dance is mainly a slower spin-off of Hardcore dance music and not one of the main electronic music genres. Read the article Gabber music on Nuskool gabba / Nu style gabber.
