However, there's a multitude of genres available from NiTEFLARE, as it is not limited to just hardcore.

Biochip C. (The Speed Freak)
Last up is Biochip C. himself, better known as The Speed Freak. This German producer has been going at it since 1990 and has produced a variety of styles such as acid, breakcore and gabber. He is seen as one of the founders of the Frenchcore genre, a very fast paced genre full of hilarious samples, mindblowing kicks and earpiercing melodies. His latest project is his label NiTEFLARE, which he started with Rex Buron as previously mentioned.

edit: I'll add some genres to the labels/artists as well in the main post.

Re: _.Spitfire._'s Hardcore permissions thread
 

Two Steps From Hell pretty pleasee :)

Also sweet get's so far!

Re: _.Spitfire._'s Hardcore permissions thread
 

so we have permission to use the Shimamura and kors k tracks on Niteflare even though we don't have permission for them on FFR?

if so, oh my god... OH MY GOD.... dibs on Rock by Kors K for stepping..

Re: _.Spitfire._'s Hardcore permissions thread
 

omg tristan :')

Re: _.Spitfire._'s Hardcore permissions thread
 

Now it's playing the waiting game until I see that Jasmine file in ffr :D

Re: _.Spitfire._'s Hardcore permissions thread
 

Two Steps From Hell is not really the genre of music I'm getting permissions for haha. The Hardcore in the title is there for a reason. ;)
You should try getting it yourself though, but they sound pretty big so there's a chance they'll say no.

Yep 8)

You can buy the albums by e-mailing to info@niteflare.com and listing what you want. You can find their discography on the website http://niteflare.com/releases/
I'll talk to the manager to see if there's a possibility to link some free tracks or maybe a digital store.

Oh yeah, I still have to fix that up haha.

Re: _.Spitfire._'s Hardcore permissions thread
 

They sound pretty hardcore to me... *mumble mumble*

No I know what you mean. I need to get my lazy ass to do something anyway XD

Re: _.Spitfire._'s Hardcore permissions thread

Do people realize how outstanding this most recent permission is? This is incredible.

Re: _.Spitfire._'s Hardcore permissions thread
 

Haven't gone out asking for permissions lately but I was talking with the owner of Strictly for the Purist today and decided to go ahead and ask for permission for FFR as well. Turns out he was cool with it so here's permission lol



Strictly for the Purist
Label Owner: Ollie 'Obie' Brown
Permission Type: Blanket
Homepage: http://strictlyforthepurist.co.uk/
Soundcloud: http://soundcloud.com/strictlyforthepurist
Discogs: http://www.discogs.com/label/Strictly+For+The+Purist

Strictly for the purist is an amazing label full of well-known artists in the hardcore scenes, including people like Darwin, Fracus, Joey Riot and ofcourse the owner, Obie, with music ranging from gabber to freeform to some rap as well (Obie is an MC as well after all :)). SFTP has gained even more success with the recent release of 3D renegade (which sold out already!) and Obie winning a Hardcore Heaven Award for best breakthrough DJ! Check the music out on SFTP's soundcloud and support SFTP when you can!
