CD is for australia, he is the most well known aussie hardcore DJ... international has little to do with it
I find it odd all of the excutive guys are missing |

Cover design looks fantastic.. |

Yeah, very hypocritical.
I thought after his Bonkers17 TL and reading his moan he might be changing his ways... Doesn't look that way now.
Wouldn't say Weaver should be excused from making a boring self promoting TL either. There is more than one way to get your name well known! I don't think putting all his own tracks on a mix is a good way of going about it either. That's a bad publicity. |
| this-is-bonkers |
hope this pops up on Ebay so i can buy it, it looks good |
| Quicksilver |
Hahaha I laughed when I saw Scott Brown's tracklist... He's so up his own ass.
Weaver is forgiven, he has a nicer overall attitude than SB and he needs a bit more recognition me thinks. ;) |
| Dj Satsky |
Weaver is a good DJ his tunes are brilliant... |

Totaly agree. Weaver makes some good tracks no doubt about that. I don't mind the guy at all but I do agree with your point about going about this CD.
If the CD is for Australia like Darren says then where are all of the other Aus producers?

Before people start having a go at Scott Brown and co , read this
To quote Weaver:
"reason why scott and kevin used there own material is cause licensing was easier to do it all from the one person , my tracklisting was going to be way different but none of the companies or djs got back to the masif guys for licensing".
And there should be a UK release around Jan/Feb. If your prepared to wait. |
| Nooney |
"reason why scott and kevin used there own material is cause licensing was easier..."
I don't think that is an acceptable excuse, they need to put effort in if they want to have a good end product - which is kind of stating the obvious. I could have bunked most of my school year, that would have been much easier but I actually wanted some respectable GCSEs at the end of it so I did the smart thing and chose not to.
I agree with the comments on Scott, his Bonkers tracklist made me think he was sorting things out but maybe that was just Marc Smith's influence as clearly he's not changing his ways too soon.

If easier meant the CD coming out now and not half way through next year then whats the big deal

As they say patience is a virtue, and if it produces a more exciting album then what's the big deal with waiting a bit longer?

I'd say there isnt much stuff left for albums at the minute due to other albums coming out it'd be full of half the pish of imodownload and trackitdown which frankly alot of it is shocking not naming names (i'd rather have a mix full of scott brown/weaver tunes if they are the ones that are good enough to make an album), for albums you have to have good songs not pish made in 30 seconds which is what alot of tunes on imodownload/trackitdown are at the minute. the albums that have just come out bonkers etc have covered alot of the best tunes, this album looks good for what it is. |
| J.T.S |
Very good point there... |
| CDJay |
"but none of the companies or djs got back to the masif guys for licensing""
*tuts*
*spanks*
Well, I hope you've learned your lesson. I respond quickly, offer primo material and look pretty in a tutu.
Always next time, eh? ;)

Hey guys!
Cheers for all the feedback! Looks like its going to be a good release! Thanks for posting it up Hak's! Should be down your way in Jan or Feb for an album launch as such! Will let you know!
For all those people bagging it out, you have to realize that this is a CD mainly for AUSTRALIA! We haven't had any sort of local release Australia wise for a good 5 years, unlike you guys which have 2-3 a month in the UK this is 1 in 5 years! Even the Bonkers, Clubland, Hardcore Adrenaline, Ministry CD's you guys have, well we don't get them here, if we do get bonkers its 3 months after you guys get it which by the time we do every ****er has downloaded it! There isn't a huge market in Hardcore in Australia as the scene is so far apart, we have 1 party a weekend if we are lucky in Sydney, and maybe 1 every month in other states! The reason for mainly artist albums in this case is because the budget is no where near as much as what your albums would be and cause it's the first one no one knows how it will sell? There were a few labels and people that some of the DJ's were going to license tunes from but some didn't reply, some declined due to the lack of advances and so on and some didn't get back in time due to the 3 week deadline with paperwork, on my CD i had 6 different other tunes that were to go on there but it wasn't done in time so i had to replace it with other stuff.
With Scott's CD theres tonnes of different remixes and other tunes on there, in my opinion it looks awesome, also got the classics on there like turn up the music and so on which were huge here in Australia, so you have to realize that Australia is different! Very different to the UK! Same as the Freeformation boy's disc, looks awesome, and also has some exclusive remixes on it as well, don't know why people are complaining!
So hopefully everyone will support this CD and there will be a follow up, thanks to Steve Hill as well and the Masif crew for the opportunity and faith in Hardcore in Australia! Hope everyone likes all the disc and especially my new stuff which some of you would have heard in the UK when i was last out!
Enough said!
Weaver

Weaver is a cool guy. Had a chance to play a show with him earlier in the month.
I'm personally glad to see he has a comp cd. |
| sora.slx |
YaY for Australia :D
A rare opportunity indeed, looking forward to this album. |
| Dj Satsky |
That Weaver & Andy L tune Cannonball remixed version sounds good.. |
| _firefly_ |
CD2 looks really good, cant comment on CD1-3 cos I havent heard much from them but am interested in them, especially the weaver as what i've heard from him is usually good, if a tad cheesy. |

Some of it is extremely good and, naming names, 'Equinox' by someone called _firefly_....

Hi everyone!
My first post on here so rock on!
Thanks the words of support on the CD and also just to clarify some things because it's better coming from the label than being speculation...
First, all DJ's put forward their tracklistings and we tried to clear everything on their lists. Unfortunately we couldn't get all the tracks we wanted due to budget constraints; time; people didn't get back to us; or they declined usage. Therefore most of the tracks used were from the respective DJ's labels. To be fair on Scott he did want a few other tracks on his mix from other artists / labels but we couldn't clear them for the CD!
Second, the brief from Masif was for all the DJ's to present a CD based on what they'd be playing on their forthcoming tours around Australia. Not sure if some of you have been on tour in Australia but if you don't play some of the big tunes you're known for you'll get lynched so that's why there is some upfront and some classic tracks on everybody's discs.
Third, we are well aware that Bonkers is also coming out around the same time so we wanted to make sure that the mixes were totally different from both packages as Scott and Kev etc were mixing discs for Bonkers too hence giving each of the DJ's a different brief.
This is the first Hardcore CD of its kind here. We're promoting one of Australia's finest exports, Weaver, alongside some of the world's greatest. If some people's catalogue isn't represented it's because they'll hopefully be involved in the next edition; the DJ's never requested it; they asked for too much money or they chose not to give clearance.
Here at Masif it's always 100% DJ selection - we don't push tracks on the people mixing the compilations - all the discs are a true representation of those that have mixed them...and we love 'em! We hope you do too!

Thanks for Weaver & Steve for clearing that up, atleast they put forward a reasonable response as to why the album is the way it is. Wonder if others will one day tell us why they shamelessly self promote... |
| bulby_g |
Yeah, that seems reasonable enough.
I'll still be getting this as it does look good. I just hate "artist" or "label" mixes. Never enough variety on them. |

We have two tracks on there. 
and yes this is a Masif Hardcore release and as reasons given by Weaver most of his own stuff is going to be promoted obviously.
Although I would like to do an Executive CD soon. There is lots of other Aussie Hardcore out there.
Cheers,
Ben

about quarter of hmv/virgin/sanity's have ordered them. they should receive them within the week i think. particularly because with this cd virgin gives double points |

Hey!
Just letting you all know that most of the stores Sydney wide now have them in stock, selected JB HI FI, Sanity & HMV do have them in stock, if you are having troubles getting it still you can order it from them just place an order, if not jump on www.masif.org and you can get it from there at a great price!
