I've been doing a bit of digging into the archives, and I've found a lot of hardcore artists that never got the recognition they deserved. My top pick at the moment has to be Francis Hill. He's way too under-rated, and has a great voice. I'd love to work with him on some projects in future. Anyone know what he's up to now?

just being on a few released (at least officially) isn't being underrated though.
but I can't deny that Come Running is one of the few male vocals I can listen to in Hardcore without wincing.

Are so many out there. Stompy would be one. Was basically at the same level as Dougal when it came to his producing.
Probably should have mixed a Bonkers as he was a very good dj too with pretty decent scratching skills.
Dj Eruption of United Dance would be another one. I don't think he made a bad track back in the day.

Most of Stompy's back catalogue was engineered by Bradley Carter. Fade & Trixxy did a couple of bits as well. Don't recall D-Zyne being involved in any. Hmmm.

Wasn't Francis Hill just a studio vocalists? But yes, he has the perfect male vocal for HHC.
Here are some I can think of:
Ina-State (I know it's Hixxy & UFO, but you don't see the tracks from Ina-State used a lot).
Frisky
Flyin' & Sparky
Sytronic
I'll also agree with DJ Eruption. His tracks were everywhere, yet he never seemed talked about much

I never knew that. I know Fade was an unreal engineer, so no wonder they sounded so good.
