Artcore is a Hungarian electronic music band from Miskolc, Eastern Hungary. This band is rather an artist than a DJ-group. The story started in 2001, when Mayer vp and DBS (formerly Daniel D, but he changed his nickname becuse another artist had the same name) got the inspiration of making music. In this year, a band founded with the name of Seven At Work. That was a "collection" of their friends who have musical inspirations. The project was not so succesful, but only ended in 2004, when all the band members left the band except Mayer vp and DBS. They wanted to continue the work, but for this, they needed to found a new band, get a great music software, and finally, a great website to publish their tracks. That was the beginning of Artcore. The first single (Izba Izba) became popular, although it wasn't so good (but it was very funny). In February 2005, the first compilation released, that was the album Technomókus (in English: Techno-Squirrel). After that, the squirrel became the band's trademark until 2006, when it changed with a simple sentence: Music For The Best. In 2007, they released a very good album (Artcore 5) and announced their new trademarks: the locust with slogan "Miskolc Instrumental Power". In this year, they realized the popularity of jumpstyle songs. Because Mayer vp always liked harder styles, Artcore changed its style to an interesting jumpstyle-hard trance mixture. The result: a hard album called "Jump To It!" in late 2008. In 2009, the co-work has slowed down, because of Mayer vp's inactivity (he is really busy to make songs) and DBS' own inspirations. But new singles are coming... Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
