Event name: Stomp! "Move Your Ass!"
Starts: November 8th, 2013
Country: United Kingdom 
City/Region: England
Thanks to everyone who came along to our Summer Spec-tash-ular event and made it our best yet! You guys were awesome and created a proper rave atmosphere to be proud of! Now, it's time to "put a donk-ey on it" as we bring you another round of hoofin' Hardcore shenanigans, Stomp style!!
This is a charity event for our friends at the Donkey Sanctuary Leeds to help them in their work caring for mistreated donkeys - a *proper* worthwhile cause for an organisation that will *really* appreciate our help!
We've pulled out all the stops to bring you another fantastic lineup including some of the very best DJ's & MC's in the scene alongside the very brightest rising stars - covering a wide range of different styles and eras as only we can!
*** SCOTT BROWN *** - (Evolution Records, Bonkers, Hardcore Heaven, Hardcore Underground!)
We always do our best to keep our promises so now we're bringing you a whole hour of the legendary Mr Brown! One of the most influential artists in the scene today, Scott has produced more epic anthems and smashed the pants off more massive raves than you've had hot dinners so best get ready to
stomp some craters into that dancefloor!
*** KEYES & X-TREME *** - (Go Tell Yo Momma, Ravers Reunited, The Only Way Is Hardcore)
We're buzzing to welcome Keyes & X-Treme onboard to make their Stomp! debut! These lads have taken Hardcore by storm in recent times and rightfully earned their place as one of the most popular Hardcore double acts in the scene today. Get ready for an hour of upfront, crowd pleasing UK Hardcore
action - mixed and hyped by 2 of the best in the bizniz!
*** A.B. b2b ANDY FREESTYLE *** - (Stamina Records, Uprising Digital) - Early 00's Hardcore & Freeform!
Let's travel back in time to an era when a Hardcore and Freeform revolution took place, shaping the scene we know and love today! We've secured this exclusive, first time pair-up of 2 of the brightest stars on the underground - Stamina Records' very own A.B. and Uprising's Andy Freestyle! One hour
of classic anthems and a serious sensory pounding coming riiight up!!
*** MR RIPLEY b2b CRUZE *** - (Trackmaster Music, Stomp!)
It's been an amazing year for Trackmaster Music - with some fantastic releases including the huge success of their "Full Frequency 2" double CD album! Now, Darts debuts his "Mr Ripley" guise to bring you an hour of upfront, uplifting, bouncy, ravey Hardcore alongside TMM's international Baldcore
Grand Master himself - DJ Cruze!
*** DMS b2b TRIQUATRA *** (Stomp!, HappyHardcore.com) - 100% vinyl Oldskool Happy Hardcore set!
Continuing our mission to push the very best northern talent around, we're excited to welcome back DMS to our decks, along with debutant Triquatra, for an hour of classic Happy Hardcore mixed 100% on vinyl! It's time to don your white gloves, get those whistles and horns ready and rave it up
Oldskool stylee!
*** SIM-E b2b YORKSHIRE RIPPER *** (Scarred Digital, Executive Records) - 3 decks anything goes shenanigans!
2 big talents making their first appearances on our stage here! Sim-E has been handing us some wicked demos across a range of styles over the last few months, while Yorkshire Ripper has been making a name for himself with some awesome productions on labels such as Scarred Digital and Executive
Records! Keep your eyes and ears peeled for these 2 in future!
*** CLAXTON *** (Stomp!, HappyHardcore.com)
After really impressing us with some awesome demo CD's and well & truly taking the roof off our epic Christmas event last year, Claxton has upped his game this year and deservedly joins us to smash the granny out of the Eiger Studios once again with some heeyowge anthems and underground slammers!
Hosted by MC's:
KEYES (GTYM & Ravers Reunited's gaffer!)
FRIKSHON (the award winning!)
SCOTTY G (welcome back, Scotty! We missed you!)
SMOKIN' (Trackmaster Music & Stomp! favourite!)
MRC & XTC (Hektik Beats boys back from retirement!)
REDZ (from dancefloor to stage, another crowd favourite!)
THEME - as always there is a theme and this time it's "Ears & Tails" - we'll leave the rest up to you!
THE MONG ZONE - normal raves have a chillout room - we have The Mong Zone! A fully furnished quiet room with games, books and fun activities for when you're all raved out and need to catch up on some monging!

Fcuking powerful line-up. Made up for the lads to be playing along-side The Legend. And Dave's an absolute hero for booking them, and for making this a properly interesting line-up.
Well excited. Massive respect to Jacket for coming over for this!
Gonna make a main-forum topic - get people WELL interested. |

Thanks Silver, we'll continue to spread the HH.com word ;-) |

You need to visit here more ;) |
| silver |
You're not from happyhardcore.com because you have an account here :) It's like saying your from Ford motor company because you have driven one for a few years :)
I appreciate the promotion and the plugging you guys are doing and I'm not trying to be a prick here but unless you are a mod, admin, radio DJ like Cotts / Bluecore, help pay the bills to run the servers, or have permission from me you can't really say your affiliated to HappyHardcore.com :)
With that said, if you want to be a mod or DJ or help out more please drop me line :) |
| Darts |
Hi Silver - totally appreciate what you're saying there - the guys who I associated with hhc.com on the lineup are people that are known for posting mixes on these forums and so I thought readers would make be able to make the connection.
Rave and clubbing forums have taken a serious caning since Facebook & Twitter became so huge, with so many of them dying a total death, so it's with the best of intentions & because I care about the scene that I'm trying to give hhc.com more exposure. We need a popular, buzzing, independent forum where people can talk about stuff, make their feelings known and educate people about new music, events, etc...
That said though, I do understand your point re. affiliation so I'll respect your wishes and omit the hhc.com thing from the final flyer artwork 
Thanks everyone who's given us great feedback on this event so far - so buzzing to have got such a varied lineup and you just know the night is gonna be jam packed with awesome tuneage from start to finish  great to get lots of new talent on there too (even those who aren't quite so "new"  ) |

Cannot wait for this!! The last event was off the scale and Stomp! continues to grow.
Quality, quality line-up. We are guaranteed a hugely diverse night of hardcore. DMS & Trickyrata is going to be a quality set. Not a clue what to expect, I just know it's going to be good. |
| Darts |
Yeah I'm really looking forward to hearing what treasures DFS & Tuatquntra dig out for us, too! |
| _Jay_ |
All vinyl Happy Hardcore. FIT. I've always liked it, but Bust An Old Jam boosted my appreciation for the mid-to-late '90s stuff massively!

This site isn't - well, certainly shouldn't be looked at as - simply a service, (unlike the sites that you have listed, which are services). This is a community of people, and everyone - like Claxton - contributes to the site by posting.
I agree completely that terming it as 'affiliated' is a step too far, though. I just wanted to say something that was a little bit shitty, because I felt - although you were within your rights - what you said and the way you said it was a bit fcuking flippant and rude. Especially to someone like Dave, who a) is a fcuking lovely bloke, b) pushes this site as an alternative to facebook/Twitter etc. when he really doesn't have to and c) genuinely cares about the scene and works very hard to do good things within it and for it. |

| Elipton |
I don't even know. I just needed any old post to replace the one I initially had.
Why would anyone want to be affiliated with this place anyways? Terrible reputation and its ancient. It's be like getting affiliated with the Hun dynasty |

The only terrible reputation we have is among Gammer's 2372774 different personalities. No one else thinks we are that bad.
DEFINITLY NOT PEOPLE WHO HAVE MET US IN PERSON |
| Hard2Get |
It doesn't have a bad reputation. You are assuming people care more than they do. They really couldn't give a shit generally.
Edit: probably best not to go further off-topic on Dave's thread lol. |

Ok before you start reading my text don't assume I am angry... I am happy in fact... here is happy turtle :)
Now we have established the mood of my posts here, I kind of knew this was going to happen when I tried to say what I said, I used as many smilie faces as I could, I was not trying to be rude and I even wrote (I'm not trying to sound like a prick)... unforcantly text / email etc can be read any way so I'm sometimes hard to sound like you are asking a question rather than yelling it out.

Ha! You don't need need to give me the smiley face treatment, I don't think you're being argumentative or anything - and as you've probably realised over the last few years; I'm not especially argumentative or confrontational either. (smiley face)
Fair doo's, though. Sounds like you didn't mean to sound quite as evil as you did! Ha. There are better ways to be nice than saying "not to sound like a prick", though! You could actually be nice. Bit of diplomatic language etc.
(smiley face)

Ahhh that's fine. You don't need to go home. Just as long as you make it to the rave. |
| Darts |
Great to see so many of you guys coming along to this event, it's a real buzz to be getting you all together and just makes us even more determined to put on a good show for you |
| djDMS |
Proof of how far the Stomp! word is spreading. Also, testament to how great a job Darts and the crew are doing. |

Now you only have to work hard enough to attract someone from Asia or North America.

Had an immense amount of stuff going on at this end lately so this is a bit late coming (gotta big up our designer Michelle for doing this at last minute when she had full on man-flu and a Kutski album to distribute!) - but here's the flyer for the event!

I was about to correct you and suggest that you would need a body to attend the event (it's our policy to refuse access to spirit entities on account of them not being able to pay. However, we are powerless to prevent them from entering the premises.)
Then I realised you'd typed a double-negative, so never mind |

Good mix (that's saying a lot coming from me by the way). Absolutely brilliant start to the mix. That's mostly what made me listen to it all. There needs to be far more Hardcore like that.

What a truly, truly, truly perfect night from start to finish. This is how raving should be. Close friends, new random friends, massive beats, massive vibes, lots of people high on life and at their absolute happiest.
I cannot and will not ever find a better way to spend time. It's just the most fcuking life-affirming experience anyone can ever have.
Best Stomp! ever. Scott Brown is a magical individual and when he plays it's truly something else.
I'm absolutely buzzing from it all, still - a full week on!
