Review by Fluffbomb Mar 13, 2007 (edited over 2 years ago)
Luna-C and Kniteforce records have produced so many Hardcore anthems its amazing. I don't think a single label & artist (under his various aliases) had a bigger impact on the early Happy Hardcore scene!

As Happy Hardcore changed in the late 90's it went in a different direction but Luna-C & Kniteforce (Again) are still producing Hardcore tunes to a smaller (but probably more dedicated) audience and moved into the Hardcore Breaks scene with great success.

His Supersets and Live DJ sets are well worth catching as he mixes up a selection of new & old tracks from the Hardcore, D&B, Gabber & Hardcore Breaks scene with a bit of humour thrown in as well!
Review by cutups Jan 07, 2005 (edited over 4 years ago)
One of the most important and influential artists in the history of UK breakbeat hardcore music. One of the earliest shapers of the "Happy Hardcore" style as it moved from the slower tempos of older breakbeat house through hardcore and parallel to jungle.
