yea right. i'm sure the same was said about the others
"He IS Hixxy/Darren Styles/Breeze"
sorry but money does change ppl, good or bad and I think that his freeform style will diminish. but I do pray that it doesn't

Why do you think those artists have changed? Styles has ALWAYS had a commercial edge, whether he was on AATW or not. It's not like he joined AATW and said "time to make some really commercial, cheesy dance songs!" He always has, and probably always will. Now he's just marketed a lot more and for some reason that means he is "bad" and has "changed." Same with Hixxy, you blame it completely on the money but time is a huge factor too. Hixxy is a successful artists because he has changed with the times and the style of music. Just because his music isn't 95% of your type of "Hixxy," it doesn't make it bad. Stop wishing there will be another Bonkers 1 and get it in your head that Hixxy's style is hardcore. It may be more commercial, but honestly, what's so wrong with him being on AATW? It seems like as soon as something gets popular, it's time to let it go and move on to something new, obscure, and shitty. Bonkers will always be Bonkers, but that doesn't mean it won't change with time. Honestly, get over Bonkers 1. It was ****ing amazing, and my second most listened-to Bonkers... but it's not coming back. Bonkers has to shift with the times if we want it to continue to exist. To me, Bonkers is the ultimate symbol of hardcore. In fact, I'd go as far as to say that Bonkers embodies hardcore for me. I never want to see it go, and if that means one remix of a pop song, I don't give a shit. It can still be amazing without the incessant whining that plagues every single post on this website from some hardcore fans that are still living in the days of '95. Yes, '95. ;]
If Hixxy, Sharkey, and Scott Brown are confirmed, I will have no worries about Bonkers. They are not stupid, and they know that hardcore is dwindling on its hinges with its current "mainstream" state. Bonkers represents everything that is NOT Clubland, and they won't let that change.

Money, mate. Money. Paid enough money and they'll do as AATW wishes.
I do agree with the rest you've said, though.

aatw are scum, they will completly ruin bonkers by naming it 18, why can't they just leave it at 17. and that will be that.
they could start again like what thunderdome did. example, bonkers chapter I, chapter II etc etc

This is my first time posting on this website and I'd like to note the following:
Bonkers 15 is my favorite album and that the album art is AMAZING. They should adapt it's art from it onto the next bonkers because 17 looked retarded. Did you see Scott browns face? lol
For the love of GOD I really hope AATW do not advrtise bonkers 18 like they do with clubland albums.
They are extremely horrid and embarassing to anyone who likes hardcore.
Go google CXH 4 & 5 commercials and you'll see what I mean.
What record label was sharkey in before he was signed to aatw? To the people saying aatw will change sharkey's style are dumb. His style will remain awesome and he has proven that since the beginning of bonkers.
Other than that I am looking forward to bonkers 18 and crossing my fingers for Scott brown doing a gabber disk and DJ Darwin being one of the DJs. Now we wait as the saga continues.

good luck with that one. It would be cool to see another volume come out, but is the reason the right one? We can't have another if the track is whack or its just to have another bonkers.
