Silver please don't delete this thread, please delete the thread in the new releases forum, as I've seen the HU reboot series in this forum. |
| Samination |
I still don't get how people keep ignoring those forums... As long as it's active, everyone can see them under both New Topics and Recent Topics... I guess laziness is a virtue :P |
| Captain Triceps |
Bugger me. Fifteen pounds for this. You'd be a fool to miss out, seriously. |
| Samination |
Preview of the album: I'd rather spend 100 quid on a 10-tracked album by DJ Ham no-one is sure is ever going to see the light of day.
:P
It will be nice to have a MULTI-genre/styled Hardcore album again. It's quite expensive to buy japanese albums all th time... |
| Elipton |
Digging that artwork! |
| skarr |
Much better than the hardcore heaven artwork. |
| CDJay |
I can't stress enough just how much I wish I wasn't going to, and didn't, bite when needlessly baited but...
- I love that we're actually pushing needless competition between two of the very few things actually happening
- I also love that after 10 years anyone in their right mind thinks that we've actually shown our hand based on some online artwork. We did a triple CD digipak back in 2006, and we're now raising the game.

well, I don't know how many times I have bought stuff just because of the cover, just to get dissapointed
by the content. Why do you think they kept slapping girls on the covers of most album in the mid 00s?
On the same note, I have probably missed out on very good stuff, just because the artwork didn't appeal
to me.
I might not be a person with graphical design skills, but I have to be honest, unless the HH/HU artwork
is just a sampler/teaser, it just shows lazyness (really, it's just a black background, with the HH logo,
a 2nd HH logo just showing the outline and a cityscape plastered inbetween).
If anything, we need more of these:

Anything championed by HU will far outweigh anything championed by Rebuild because the latter is fixated on freeform which is dying on it's arse. That's not to say that the Rebuild album will be good because there are usually a few gems on there but HU is committing to a wider scope of an already small scene where as Rebuild caters to a part that seems to want to seperate. As for artwork, i've never cared for the transformer art and i think the understated HU artwork is much better as it doesn't glare at you. |

To be honest, only every other Rebuild Album is "freeform" only. And Freeform is the only dying genre? Isn't the Hardcore HU champion also becoming smaller compared to the Gammercore?
Also, wasn't the latest HU without a real freeform album? So how much diverse was that? |
| Golion |
Samination: But is "gammer/edmcore" really such a big thing? To put things in perspective - Gammer has a bit more than 40 000 fans on his facebook page, Angerfist has over a million. Maybe letting a guy like Angerfist/Neophyte/Promo mix a cd where the rest is UK stuff would open some eyes to the happy side of hardcore? Variation is the spice of life :)
Btw - this cd has a great cover, looking forward to the previews |
| Vladel |
Not since blood sweat & tears in 2012 have rebuild done an album that isn't just freeform. |
| Thumpa |
This one isn't just freeform, there will be some breakbeat hardcore, D&B, gabber and quite a few UK hardcore tracks. This is definitely more of a BS&T vibe. |

......
I'm the same. I'm easily tempted by good artwork. I have countless albums and records that have terrible music on, but are unique.
Thumpa, you'd be a fool to miss out on the opportunity to capitalise on this. 12-inch canvases or art-sheets something could be a good way to present the album.
It's be a shame if this was only available on a 120mm2 case 
I'm not encouraging the comparison by any means, but Thumpa goes to length to source illustrations from the artist and it's worth that effort. I dare say that an album's release schedule is built around when the illustrator can provide the artwork, right? |
| ViolonC |
The only thing that puts me off is that i have to pay 5 extra for something i'm not even interested in (physical CDs). Maybe i can pay 15 and get the wavs and the CDs are donated to somebody that only knows Gammer or S3rl in Hardcore? |

Considering you get both the album and the WAVs, I would classify them as 2 seperate items. You're givign away a half of it |
| skarr |
The fonts used on the hardcore heaven artwork look like something you would have used on windows 95 in gcse I.T, skills., in 1995. |

Well the font looks similar to a typeface called Gotham to me which would set you back about ?300 and it wasnt a genre of fonts that were released until 2000-2005 so I rather doubt that.
Irrespective of that fact, it's dead banter. Try harder to be funny. |
| Thumpa |
First clip is up!
|
| Golion |
Sounds great :D I love this style of hardcore |
| djDMS |
Sold!
That's awesome |
| Claxton |
This album is going to be superb.
Ps. What a car crash of a thread already. If ever my dramatic thread was more justified. |
| trippnface |
i'm down; good stuff ! |
| Samination |
claxton: and for once Guest hasn't ruined this thread :P
Back to the topic: It+'s a good thing that track doesn't represent the album, because I don't like it at all (but then I never liked the real old stuff). |
| Elipton |
Yeah that's pretty funky
Looking forward to hearing more clips |
| Thumpa |
Another clip up tonight! |
| DjZelous |
WOOOO That everybody bounce now tune is fireeeee! |
| Thumpa |
New clip! Magaluf approved, acid fuelled, party rockin, psy tinged freeform from Crash!
|
| Thumpa |
New clip!
New bouncy, no nonsense hardcore from Notorious Vinyl's Ganah, giving Little Fella's 2009 ReBuild track a fresh lick of 2016 paint!
|
| _Jay_ |
Not feeling the first three clips but I'm sure overall this'll be worth a purchase. That said, I didn't buy Blood, Sweat & Tears. Whilst I love 90% of the Freeform stuff you put on the albums, I think your taste in Hardcore is way less cheesy that mine.
You thought about pushing the boat out and pressing 500 or something? You always sell out, don't you?

Agreed. You should look at upping to 500 units Olly - unless you have your heart set on the exclusivity of it all.
This ones set to be gone in record time!
How can I be sure of this? because I plan on buying all 300, spreading them out on top of my bed, sprawling on top of them naked, laughing hysterically while pawing at my treasures. |

Yeah I've done 500 anmd even 600 copies before of albums but I'm looking at 300 for this one, maybe 400 if I get good vibes off the pre order but we'll see! There will be plenty of decent freeform on this one, will drop a new Transcend bit this week sometime.

Brand new Transcend!
Only a few days til pre orders start, clips to come still from Joey Riot, Kevin Energy, Macks Wolf & Jekyll, A.B, Transcend and LOADS more! |

Another clip up tonight, its gonna be a big one! |

Bloody hell? will this be the first rebuild CD i might ignore completly?
4 samples, and I don't like any of them. And that m-project remix. That has to be the most generic j-core track he has produced. It's basicly just regular j-core+nanobii+weak powerstomp kick |

lolz; i will pick this one up.
honestly these days; most of what m project does i find prtty boring. his j core and makina was tiers above this powerstomp stuff. still making it; releases none of it. so annoying |

I missed the Transcend song, but still, 1 out 5 is bad.
and that m-project track isn't close to his Powerstomp. I'd take his Makinastomp any day. |
| Impulse_Response |
So far I like the Transcend track and the one by M-Project (for once; I think most M-Project stuff is boring). I'm still holding out for the other 31 though, and I can only imagine there are plenty of good ones in there. |

100% with you on the makinastomp |
| Thumpa |
Brand new one from Macks Wolf & Jekyll, remixing the Freeformania classic 'Floorfiller'!
|
| Elipton |
M-Project completely lost my attention when he turned his music into a more powerstomp direction. I think that's what it's called?
It's a shame since we'd spoken here and there. That track I really enjoy listening too though. Wouldn't mind hearing that live some time |
| Elipton |
Really liking that latest one Olly. Really good riffs and it's great to see Jekyll's name on the project.
My only gripe is that the lead fading in, in the few cars before the drop doesn't sound right by my ear. Feel like there's lots of cool stuff that could be done with the same sound to intensify the build up. Still a top tune though! :) |

The Substanced track is tight though. |

Ah fair play haha, I still stand by the comments though lol. I don't think the Hotchkiss remix is particularly offensive but it really doesn't interest me at all.
Holding off on this album at the moment but I feel inclined not to have a gap missing in my ReBuild collection. :P (Although I still don't physically own Worldwide Freeform but whatever) |
