FusionCore Techno Project

Hello Wolves and Dogs,
It's time to unveil a new project.
The "FusionCore Techno" concept.
It was born out of a brainstorming session by The Gabber Elders (a Gabber Elder brainchild!).
Partly inspired by Nikaj's "Mainstream Pollution".

The idea is to fuse Hardcore and Techno with one other style. In a mix set, but also possibly in other ways (tracks? visuals? albums? global tours? - "hello New Zealand!").

In the past, some DJs did multi-genre or sound-clash mixes (for example in the earliest days of "dance music"...)

The FusionCore idea is kinda the opposite idea of that.

Because in multi-genre mixes, you would for example spin a gabber track, then opera, then synth pop... and these sounds... do *clash*!
And that's good, because this is abrasive, abrupt, adrenaline...
But the opposite is good as well. Instead of doing a "clash", of going as far apart as possible... you can also try to fuse, mend, blend, smoothen genres.

Let me explain what I mean.
Say, someone would mix a set with gabber and rap. Then the DJ might choose tracks that fit to the rap theme. For example, gabber tracks with hip hop samples. Or that "fit" in another way.
Yet... the more far apart the different tracks are, the more of a challenge it'd be to fuse them... and this could be interesting as well.

It will be a deliberate and difficult act of balance, that's for sure.

Some examples for fusions would be:

Making a mix with Speedcore tracks and Death Metal songs.
Making a mix with Hip Hop and Gabber (I already mentioned that).
Making a mix with Video Game Music and Hardcore Techno.
And and and...

Another option is that it is not two discrete styles, but a vector.
For example making a mix with Gabber, Acid, Trance, Techno (cuz they all are a part of the same "style arrow").

The sky is limited! [sic!]

So let's get ready for some interesting fusions in (and of) the future.

Here are three earlier mixes that already come close to the idea of FusionCore Techno. (Even if they were not made with this term as the banner)
