It's decent. All your stuff would be really hard to mix though. I wouldn't reccommend starting with a melody. If you notice in full hardcore tracks they generally have a 16 bar intro that's something a like a loop, and percussion, i.e. rides and claps. Then after the 16 bars the bass would drop, and that's where the DJ would generally switch tracks. If you want to get your stuff on the radio, I'd add DJ friendly introductions. Same with your outros. It has potential and I'm not saying it's not going anywhere, but in my opinion, it's not quite radio ready nor will you get signed. Now, on a more technical side, I'd try to make your kicks a little punchier, and your bass a little louder. Your lead is pretty loud, almost overpowering in a way. So, my advice to you is find a solid hardcore track and try to reproduce it. Try and get it to as close as to the original as possible. This will help you learn structure, and some of the tips and tricks regarding build ups and breakdowns too. It'll help you learn how to make your music exciting. Keep in mind I'm no god of producing but I'm letting you know things that I have learned from people on this very sight. Two years isn't a lot of time producing so don't get your hopes up on getting signed over night. It takes years. But don't give up. Like I said it has potential, it's just the little things that will take it to the next level.

*massive slap in the face* do not rape tracks please.. man.. hardcore vibes R.I.P.
although the melody sounds awfull fimiliar I think energy was your best try. Just lower the volume on the melody a little and start with a dj friendly intro (as hero said). Put some claps/hats(or rides) in the start for bout 16 bars to the dj has something to mix it in on. Build it up a bit so to say.
The rest of your stuff.. mehh.. its all remix-ish or megamixes for so far I hear/see.
Hearing your trance I would say dont even bother hardcore focus on trance and get a career in that if you wish a music career. Don't want to disencourage you but I think you get easier into trance then hardcore, plus there's a better future in it and last but not least, you seem to be MUCH better with trance.
Getting signed? Harrash them by sending in demo's. Dont be scared, you will get send away plenty of times but there's prolly one of em out there that likes it enough to release.
That's it, goodluck :)
