Hardbag was a genre of electronic dance music popular in the mid-1990s. Having evolved out of the handbag house scene in 1993-1994 the genre enjoyed massive albeit brief popularity with several hardbag releases achieving positions in the upper echelons of the UK chart. It was at the time sometimes confused with Nu-NRG yet the styles were discernibly different.Don’t You Want Me by Felix is largely considered to be the track that launched the hardbag explosion.
