The fastest corner of hardcore, tracked daily

Uptempo is hardcore pushed past 200 BPM, built on distorted, overdriven kicks and screeching leads, and it is one of the fastest-growing extremes in hard dance. The Uptempo Release Radar keeps up with all of it: every new uptempo release is added the day it lands on Spotify, from Masters of Hardcore and Spoontech signings to the flood of independent uploads that define the sound.

The radar treats the whole scene as one feed. Established names like N-Vitral, Deadly Guns and Lil Texas sit next to producers dropping their first track, and there is no editorial filter deciding who is big enough to belong. Tracks stay for their first few weeks and then rotate off as newer releases arrive, so the list is always what is fresh rather than a growing pile of everything ever released.

Spotify’s built-in Release Radar only shows you new music from artists you already follow, and only on Fridays. This one is genre-wide and the same for everyone, updated every day, which is how you catch the next uptempo act before they blow up. The biggest and most-streamed of these tracks also feed into the Hardcore Top 100.

New Uptempo lands here first. Once a track proves itself it climbs into the Hardcore Top 100, and every release we track is collected on the new Uptempo releases page, updated daily.

How this radar works

New releases, added daily

Every new Uptempo release on Spotify is added the day it appears, seven days a week. There is no weekly batch and no waiting for a Friday refresh.

A rolling few-week window

Tracks stay on the radar for their first weeks, then rotate off as newer releases arrive. The list never becomes an endless archive: it is always a picture of what is new in Uptempo.

The whole scene, not your follows

Unlike Spotify's personal Release Radar, built from artists you already follow, this covers all of Uptempo: major labels, small imprints and unsigned uploads alike, the same for everyone.

Follow it once on Spotify

The radar is a public Spotify playlist that updates itself. Follow it once and the newest Uptempo keeps flowing into your library, with every track linking back to its details here.

Questions,answered

Where can I find new uptempo hardcore releases?

The Uptempo Release Radar gathers every new uptempo release on Spotify into one playlist, updated daily. Follow it once and the newest uptempo hardcore keeps arriving in your library the day each track drops.

What BPM is uptempo hardcore?

Uptempo hardcore generally runs from around 200 BPM upward, faster than mainstream hardcore and gabber, with heavily overdriven kicks and screeching leads. Some tracks push well past 220 BPM toward terror and speedcore territory.

How is this different from Spotify’s Release Radar?

Spotify’s Release Radar is personal to you and refreshes weekly from artists you already follow. The Uptempo Release Radar is genre-wide, identical for everyone and updated every day, so it surfaces the whole uptempo scene, not just acts already in your library.

What is the difference between uptempo and frenchcore?

Both are fast forms of hardcore, but uptempo is built on a straight, overdriven kick past 200 BPM, while frenchcore rides a bouncing off-beat kick around 190 to 210 BPM. The two overlap at festivals and many artists produce both.

Is the Uptempo Release Radar free to follow?

Yes. It is a public Spotify playlist anyone can follow for free, and it updates itself daily, so your library always holds the latest uptempo without any effort.
