What type of music is it? What does it most closely resemble? I've heard it used so much but I don't know what everyone's talking about! Could somebody explain? |

Gabba is four/four techno, running at 200bpm plus (very verryy fast), often horribly distorted, sometimes with crazy dutch people swearing over the top. It\\\'s basically punk techno. More often than not it\\\'s abysmal, but when it occaisonally shines it can be f*cking brilliant fun. Get \\\'Constant Mutation\\\' by Hellfish and Producer on Planet U records for a demonstration of the correct use of gabba beats. oh and its pronounced Hubba, cuz its Dutch. |

Yoyoyo, here in Holland is it called "gabber", in english they say "gabba", (pronounce: gebbah) The guy in here that said gabba is 200bpm and more and sounds very dostorted is wrong! Gabba is most of the time around 160 to 180 bmp. Gabba is the more normal type of hardcore. With nice melody's and a hard kick. Check www.mastersofhardcore.com and then check the Top-40. Here you will find lots of realaudio files. There are different types of hardcore. For instance, Speedcore, which most of the time is distorted hardcore around 210 bpm. Then there is Terror or Terrorcore. This is the most crazy type, 'cause of it's high bpm and distorted sounds. This is weird shit. I don't like it. It can take up to 300bpm. Next there is Darkcore, this one is really great. This is mostly slowtempo hardcore with dark sounds. Sometimes experimental or industrial. In the top-40 on the Mastersofhardcore website you will also find some darkcore tracks. But beware, also a lot of crappy gabba. Good website to check is from the label from DJ Promo. www.thirdmovement.nl Listen to the realaudio samples from Catscan. This will give you a little impression about Darkcore. Hope you now know a little what "gabba" is. If not, feel free to ask. :) |

[arounf these parts ive only ever heard gabber.....these parts being from new york down to florida. but its irrelevant i suppose. gabber to me is the worst ever. if anyone read my one post somwhere dissing the 4/4 beat in electronic music, well, this takes the annoyance level of that stuff to a new level. hearing that same beat so fast and with such terrible kick sounds makes my head want to die. and its not because i dont like loud or heavy or fast music; im a gigantic fan of good industrial as well as alot of hardcore. basically its a cheap excuse for dumb ravers to think theyre being punk while still listening to shite. if you want hardcore/punk/electro, pick up an atari teenage riot album, or better yet, alec empire, who falls between that kind of stuff and idm in my eyes....] |

not being rude mate but the punk scene kinda died out in the late 80s and sortah only happened in the uk. the stuff we here today (pumped out like cheese to the hormonal pre pubescent teeny boppers) sounds like studioised shit and doesnt realy stand for any real anarchistic cause. as for electronic music such as gabba and other forms of experimental music sounding shit? i suppose everything has its own time and place but the concept of gabba is a whole lot more original than some twat in a union jack t-shirt wanking on about "takeing the power back"???? |

Argh... the punk scene here is dead. They go around.. [these are the "true" punks, that are hardcore and are "crust". anyway..] and talk shit, and its lame cause they are such hipacrites about it all. Nieve, and don't know. You know why im critizing these groups of punks in my city?. Cause I used to chill with tons of them. I was in hardcore/punk band, and we put on and hosted many shows, and gigs over the while. We were well known in my city of 890'000 people. And yeah... so I got out of that whole scene, and some of them are cool, about that and just in general. But the majority of them are all.... like hes a sellout. They want to be individuals, except they got all the same patches, all the same style clothes, all the same style music, all the same attitudes, even the beer! So.... there you go. The punks I know [and this ofcourse could be different for any of you elsewhere].. the punk scene,, yes died in the mid 80's. It became a unpopular fad.. if there is such a thing.. well in this case yes. So there you have it. |

Fuck you Punk Kicks ass to say bands like rancid is shit , is like saying your mums a bitch, you just don't fucking say it. Punk fucking started the ball rolling for alternative music such as the Sex Pistols if it wasn't for them we wouldn't have Aphex Twin. |

If you want to talk then fine, if you want to diss people for whatever music they do and don't like then fuck off. This is an aphex twin site in case you hadn't noticed and a wide variety of tastes in music is to be expected. |

"Kraftwerk I would agree on but in dance terms the orbital have great affects on the industry aswell, and scary bear fuck you, I wasn't dissing your bloody parents or culture you wanker I was mearly making a statement and to slam the alternative scene is a fairly stupid thing to do and pointing out that Im on an aphex twin site is another mistake considering it is heavily alternative. also you seem to have a go at me for slamming other peoples taste in music but excuse me is that not what i have just picked you up on "But its shite never the less" Wanker !! |

Punk has nothing to do with Aphex Twin, nothing. If your coming here yes, youd better expect many different styles of music to be liked/shared here. Scary Bear chill out, don't get kicked. |

What are we talking about in here, punk or gabba? Please stick a little bit to the topic. Thanx. :-) Yo Streamer. What you said there that gabba is for skinheads. You don't understand what you are saying man. Often people see hardcore/gabba freaks as skinheads/nazi's, but this is wrong, entirely wrong. Ofcourse there are some people who are skinhead and think they are gabba's or something, but they're not! We don't want em in our scene. They just fuck up everything. Nowadays, luckily a lot of organisators now have door-policy's at parties to prevent that skinheads will appear on hardcore/gabba parties. This is a big step in the good direction. Skinheads are just losers who don't have their own opinion about something. Ask any skinhead why he/she is so hatefull against foreign people. Most of the time you get the answer like "well, my friends are against them, so am i too". Could you spell W.a.n.n.a.b.e.!!!!!!!!!! Phuckin' losers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But don't say gabba is skinhead music or anything. We don't like skinheads as much as others do. |

Here in Vancouver, "Goths" listen to gabber...It's kinda funny! There is/was a night here at a the Purple Onion club called Sanctuary...went there a few times. It was funny to watch "the creatures of the night" dance to the stuff! As far as Hardcore stuff, I once owned a funny little cd called Terror Trance From Hell vol. 1.....it had some cool hard beats on it.....wish I knew what happened to it! It had some really sexy comic art on the cover too! Damn! |

I have been informed that he is a french man also known as: FRENCH CONNECTION There are other names associated with him including - 1. PCP 2. Dance Ecstacy 3. SS 4. Beast 5. Lunatic Asylum I don't know if these are his altered egos or record labels. But I am sure PCP has something to do with aphex twin ? The event is on at the venue in edinburgh next friday night |

[first of all....um, i wasnt defending the punk scene or any such nonsense...in fact, i despise most punk music and often disrespect it openly. i was merely commenting on the mindset of alot of the youth involved in the gabber trend, from my experience and point of view. everyone is so famn defensive here...christ. and, on another note, um, i was also talking about atari teenage riot, who DO have a very obvious punk influence, and a hardcore [not hardcore electro, hardcore] influence, which is based and has its roots in punk, you wanks. and if any of you actually listen to or have heard any gabber, i think the comparison is obvious, not only in musical style, but also in the associated culture. before you get defensive and start preaching about punk to me, maybe read what i wrote in context.] |

Yeah, DrMacabre is very cool. If you can, check his live-performance. He made a very good hardcore record called "Ghost Stories Chapter 1". With the all time favorite "Poltergeist". DrMacabre is really Guilaume Leroux. He is also the man behind Lunatic Asylum. (from the early big trance hit The Meltdown) Other projectnames from him are Manga Corps, French Connection, DrMacabre, Renegade Legion, Powdered Toastman, Slut Burger and some others. Back in the days he made some records with the guys from PCP. They released his big hit "Poltergeist". Also on Lenny Dee's I.S.T. label he released a record under the name Manga Corps which is called Wardancer EP. This is a co-up with France hardest producer, Manu Le Malin. :-) DrMacabre recently had his own label called Haunted House Records, on whcih he released two records. For now the label is dead. I sure may hope he will continue in the future, but it doesn't look good. For info check http://lunatic.france-techno.com/ This is his homepage. Don't get fucked or anything by the weird pictures or things he says. This is only to shock people. :-) Listen to the realaudio files, this guy is amazing. And yes, he is a frenchman, but now lives in Holland. And for the guy who said that PCP has something to do with Aphex Twin. Well just one time as far as i know. Aphex Twin did two remixes of We Have Arrived. (from Mescalinum United. = PCP) To make some things clear about PCP, here is some info about them. PCP started in 1989 in Frankfurt, Germany. Two friends who made music didn't want the bullshit with releasing on other labels, so they started their own label, called PCP = Planet Core Productions. The mainlabel was called PCP. Later on they started more labels for different styles. At one time they had a number of labels. The following labels : PCP, Dance Ecstasy 2001, Cold Rush (Lost), Super Special Corp., No Mercy, Kotzaak Unltd, Interzone, 100% Acidiferous, Fucking Loud, Thai, Future World, Pretty Asshole, Floorfiller, Countdown FFM, Adrenacrome, Tranceform, Techno Tribe, White Breaks, Test, Narcotic Network Recordings, Powerplant, F.O.G., Elastic and Dope On Plastic. They also had teir own distributioncentre called PCD (Planet Core Distribution) The main man who produced the most for PCP was the man who had started it all, Marc Acardipane. Also known as The Mover and a number of other aliases. At the end of 1996, beginning of 1997 the guys split up. This was the end of the famous PCP movement. Marc left Frankfurt and has moved to Hamburg. He still makes music though. On his own label called Acardipane Records. (which he started in 1997) Ok, this is the story in a few? words. :-) |

i don't think ATR [atari teenage riot is gabber] but.. they are good. I have 3 of their albums. I like them, have for about 4 years now. Good stuff. Gabber is alright, there is a time when it crosses over to Hardcore, with guitars and shit. |

Scary Bear: Atari Teenage Riot is many different things, if iam correct it is 2 guys and 1 girl. Or maybe 3 guys and 1 girl. Anyway, they are a mix of gabber - hardcore and metal, and even some drum and bass. Very agressive, but great tunes. Digital Harcore. Check it out man. |
