I can't believe this page hasn't been created yet! I'm new to wiki and a big hardhouse fan. Other hardhouse fans should help me out here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Socialbeast ( talk • contribs) 09:57, March 2, 2006
"The music is often liked by younger clubbers because of its easy accessibility, meanstream attitude and suitability for dancing to while on Ecstasy."

in what way is HH commercial? chart hits? affinity with house-pop/dance-pop, their catchy melodies or soulful vocals? i don't see it - ecstasy fueled, maybe, but that doesn't make it more "commercial", or even accessible and mainstream. what does "mainstream attitude" mean: that the the people who go are especially normal, the way they dress or how they dance is "mainstream"? it makes no sense. i've heard comments like yours before, but i don't understand them.
Ok it's been nearly 4 years since the obvious need to edit this page was highlighted. The large history section in the middle of it has nothing to do with Hard house !
As people have already pointed out it's about the history of chicago house and it's affect on the UK dance scene; UK hard house whilst one of many offshoots of that scene has it's own history.
Even worse, try googling Hard house and you simply find other sites that have copied this history seemingly off this site (or perhaps another common, unreferenced source).
Come on guys, Hard house isn't my personal cup of tea but the scene continues to be huge in the UK; so many clubbers and DJ's love it with a passion, surely one of you can take a moment to edit this page ?
The first paragraph is fine, as well as the references to the UK Hard Dance and Nu-NRG page, but neither of those answer the question 'what is UK Hard House'
What about the much sung role of Tony-De-Vit in pushing and shaping the sound in it's early years - not even a single mention of him !
Anyway I propose editing the text myself and removing the non-relevant parts in the next few weeks if it remains unchanged. 13th February 2010
The list parts of the article have been removed (by another editor) because they are unreferenced. I was initially simply going to revert this, but for now I'll stop short of that and move them here. What should we do with these? __ meco ( talk) 12:55, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
is there any real difference between this and NRG, could the 2(i dunno what's meant to the difference between them 2) NRG pages be merged into this one? (PS I'M not taling about the 80s genre here) -- Monkeyatemydog ( talk) 22:32, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
yes there is a difference the synth lines used tend to be different and the basslines are more driving with nrg....nrg tends to me more experimental also...hardhouse os kinda slow and drags its feet!
if i played you an nrg tune and a hardhouse tune you IF you have a good ear and listened could tell there was a difference. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.171.129.69 ( talk) 17:36, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
Nrg has more trancey and psichedelic sound. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.144.102.201 ( talk) 13:29, 20 June 2014 (UTC)
can someone who considers themselves familiar with hard house / nrg upload some clips from good examples of the genre? i think that this is the most helpful way to illustrate the difference between the myriad styles of EDM and a lot of other pages have this.

This article have a lot of information but don't say anything about hardhouse itself, i think it would be great an article about all kinds of hardhouse, not only british or american, but also european. To find out uk hardhouse history, read the hard nrg article.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.136.184.168 ( talk) 12:08, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
