Artículo WikipediaFuente Dbpedia

Hardstep (not to be confused with Hard D'n'B or the more recent Drumstep/Hard dance known as Dancestep) is a subgenre of Drum and bass which emerged in 1994. It is characterised by a gritty production style, that has an inner-city feel to it. The breaks are less cut-up sounding rather than oldschool jungle, and have faster and harder simple electronic melodies. One characteristic is an accentuated, yet sparse percussive beat. The genre found favour with junglists, despite being overtaken in popularity by techstep, the fans of the style still remain. Nowadays Hardstep is particulary popular in the North American drum and bass scene, with artist like Evol Intent, Ewun and Dieselboy. Earlier Hardstep artists include DJ Hype and DJ Zinc.
