Speedcore is like, the hardest genre in the world to make properly. 99.999999999999999% is utter fucking shit, but when it's good, it's breathtaking. Especially the kind influenced by 20th century avant-garde compositions.
The Hangars Liquides label has released some of the best shit ever.
First half of it is just repetitive hard kicks going 1000 miles per hour (though the groove is good), but the second half is melodic bliss.
Aye, this isn't so bad I guess, get rid of those kicks though.

"its the one type of music that i dont think anyone would be pissed about if it was wiped from the face of the earth, apart from maybe a few dutch people...."

Also, I quite often put this tune on really loud and listen to every single hit like I used to...

Speedcore is.. kinda meaningless, really. It's pretty much hardcore at around 250 bpm or higher. Doesn't mean I don't love it, though. There's some really fun speedcore out there.
Gabber is characterized by having a certain distorted kick sound and it's about 150 - 220 bpm. Most of it is probably around 180 or something.
Hardstyle is more of an appropriation of hard trance with some mainstream gabber influences that might be present. It's not really related to hardcore music, to be honest. Or at least not from a cultural standpoint. I don't really know anything about it, but I'm not into it either
Nowadays the sound is pretty much the same as the vid above and I don't think that it's gonna change in the near future.
It still is very popular in Holland and even abroad (UK, Germany even in the U S of A lol) it's starting to get recognized.
