^Regina Spektor is very cool. Quite cute, too.
hardcore, eh? Nice stuff.
I thought nobody around here listens to gabber and other hardcore genres. Then again, everyone says EDM's for gay people, yet every single club I know of plays some spectrum of it. On the other hand, you will never hear pop or rock music in the club and hip-hop, r&b and reggae have very little show in the playlist unless it's a club specifically for those genres. If you ask me, every one of those EDM haters are fakes and just posing for their friends because of some stupid urban myth started by rappers, what a sell-off.
As for gabber, even some pro-EDM people find it irritating, but what do you expect? Hardcore is the heavy-metal of EDM, it's not made to be easy-listening, nor is it made so you can shake your but to it.
I've never really got why someone would name a type of music after a building material.
I've heard there are raves around toronto and southern ontario, but I've yet to hear of an actual one happening. I guess it's much more underground here than in europe, with the cops being much stricter with noise violations here. Also, cops would be looking for raves like crazy in Canada ... because they know they're nesting grounds for drug dealers. Then again, it's just a party ... and like any party, you're bound to find someone on some substances that they shouldn't have consumed. There should be some websites with rave communities, but I wouldn't go to a rave, since if I can find one, the cops can too.
I not only listen to Gabber though, I listen to almost every genre or Electronic Dance Music. Everything from house, garage, trance, techno, hardcore, jungle, down-tempo, break-beat .. you name it.
Try this guide: http://www.di.fm/edmguide/edmguide.html, it's a guide to almost all the genres of electronic music. If you like Gabber, you might find other sorts of hardcore you might like.

^the lower they are on the social ladder, the more they're into hardcore
