D-Core

Hailing from the north east coast of England, Duane Payne aka D-Core is a fast rising star in the UK rave scene, with his productions receiving massive DJ support from the likes of Joey Riot, Re-Con, Technikore, Klubfiller and Chaos!
As well as releases on labels such as Original Hardcore, Ballistic Records and Revision Digital, Duane’s monster rework of Cruze’s “Beatific” saw him claim first prize in Trackmaster Music’s 100th Release Remix Competition – and, with it, inclusion on their critically acclaimed triple-CD album “Bang On!” – out now at www.bangonhardcore.co.uk
A dedicated Hardcore follower since the 90’s - influenced by scene legends such as Breeze & Styles, Scott Brown, Gammer, and Sy & Unknown - D-Core’s trademark tough beats, epic pads and powerful, euphoric riffs hark back to a golden era of rave music – whilst big remixes of modern classics aimed for peak-time, mainfloor damage make his music 100% current for the scene today.
