10 Initiatory Tracks: Hamburg Hardcore

So we started this new series: "10 initiatory tracks: [xyz]".
this is aimed at newcomers to hardcore techno, or newcomers to that specific style.
it should give them a quick overview of that genre, and a good idea how it actually sounds like.
thus we will choose tracks that represent this concept.

these lists are not complete or exhaustive; there is much (much!) more stuff out there to be found.
these might not be the best tracks of the genre, or important artists might even be missing, due to the reduced amount of entries in these listings.

in these cases, you should feel very free to list these "missing tracks", or the tracks that *you* consider to be important and relevant for the genre, or even your very personal favorites, in the comments below!

10 Initiatory Tracks: Hamburg Hardcore

if you look at the global map of hardcore techno in the 90s, the major megalopoli were Rotterdam, The Hague, Amsterdam, London, New York, Paris, Tokyo, Newcastle, Frankfurt, Berlin... and Hamburg.

This urban freshwater-seaport agglomeration proved to be quite prolific, provident and innovative in its audio transmission when it came to gabber, hardcore, speedcore, and breakcore.

And that's why we look at 10 tracks of the 90s Hamburg Hardcore era.
