Long-time Horsers will remember Tokyo Hardcore Construction, the best harder event of the time alongside Romancer. Kanon was a big reason for that, and happily she seems to be a lot more active in the scene these days.
Hardgate 10 was a massive event held in November at Womb, with what even I can see is a dream guest line up – Art of Fighters, Meccano Twins, and The Sickest Squad. From what I can tell this is a shorter set than she played at the event, but it’s still vintage Kanon and even before I saw the tracklist on mixcloud I recognised a good few THC anthems.

Finally some stuff to catch up on again! I finally got to hear Isabella last year, and even after years being crazy about the genre and going through hundreds of tracks, I can say it’s easily the best gabber out there aside from Pure Existence. I recognize a lot of these artists, but if they helped inspire that then this should be worth a go.
