Hardcore

Hardcore is the alias of UK techno DJ and producer Dave Clarke. The name is associated with speedcore, hardcore and gabber, and it is also linked to Mokum Records, a label described as one of the early pioneers of this style. Clarke’s work in this area is noted for hard tracks with steady basslines, strong high and low frequencies, and breaks that suit remixing and club use.

The music connected with this name is also tied to play in New York’s Limelight, where it is used alongside the work of DJs and producers including DJ RePete, Rob Gee and Frankie Bones.
