History
The origins of hardcore emerged in the late 1980s. It largely derived from the combining of techno with EBM and New Beat sounds coming from the Belgian club scene at the time.

The origins of the name are largely rooted in this scene, although hardcore also regularly incorporated elements of house into its sound.
