So they've started taking pre-orders for this in a bundle format, but the bundle is a ticket for the event and the cd, but I obviously won't be attending the event, but I want the cd! will the cd be released later in another bundle with another cd or even released by itself?
Cdjay?

I guarantee there will be a bundle closer to the event, there's probably going to be another bundle or two released before "live" pre orders start for anyone not attending the event

Does anyone know if the CD's will have the MC's and crowd noise on them then? Just like an official CD pack project? Or will it just be a recording of the music itself? Doesn't seem to say anywhere.
I'm sure they will sell the CD by itself nearer (or at the very least after) release.

We will be going into more detail as time goes on but I'll tease a few bits now 
First off: Craigavon raver.... you *might* go! It's going to be life-affirming stuff. Midlands, easy to access, and we're moving mountains in order to make attending a viable option for those further afield. The location, proximity to airports, nearby accommodation etc all factored in from the off.
The CD will *absolutely* be available separately. Whilst we're really, really keen on incentivising a truly international base of interested types to attend there will be those who fundamentally cannot attend for a variety of reasons. This is being done very much like a "normal" HU album, in terms of compiling, mastering and prep. The notable difference is, of course, that this will be mixed live in front of an audience whereas previous volumes were done in sequencers or from CDJs. Which leads us to....
The CDs will have "hosts" and crowd noise. "This is just like a CD pack!" I hear cried? Thankfully no, not really. This is intended as a fusion of the better aspects of each into something relatively unique in genre. Each aspect will be captured as a separate stem; the "mix" will be kept in the digital domain through the mixer whilst the host will run through a decent A/D before being captured "raw". Same for crowd noise. These parts will be later brought together as fastidiously as one would hope for the final mastered album mixes.
Another difference is that as these mixes will be compiled, structured and planned over the next few months is the opportunity for the hosts to be more involved in the process. The last thing we want is a "typical" MC set, and I'm entirely aware some people would rather there were no MCs over the music at all. Albums usually give the opportunity for DJ/Producers to showcase their craft and this is an effort to afford the same to MCs who want to do something new and involved. It's safe to say that compared to the norm these will be pared back performances, but hopefully all the better for it. The current plan is to have 2 mixes with sparse and tightly integrated hosting and 2 mixes with a more standard feel.
Even if none of that convinces you, I'm sure you've seen us allude to the intention to "bridge" the CD vs Digital album divide. This is a perfect opportunity. By purchasing the CD album we intend to supply digital "rights" on our store to grab a version with just the mix. This will only be available with the purchase of the physical product.
The dream is to capture the quality of a studio album, with the magic and energy of a live performance. It's certainly unproven. We'll go the extra mile to shore up the odds
The venue is awesome, and the plans we have for it are similarly awesome. What's really needed is a truly engaged crowd and that, you superior specimens, is where you come in! I'm excited. Scared, granted, but excited. It feels very HU1-ey in terms of aspiration and operating outside our comfort zone.

Here is the full line-up for our event on MAY 30TH in Coventry. The next Hardcore Underground compilation CD will comprise of the four featured sets you can see highlighted on the flyer. Lots of exclusive music, multi-track recording of the hosts, the music, and the crowd, all within the digital domain will mean that the final album is far more than just a glorified CD pack.
We have also pulled out all the stops to insure that the rest of the line-up comprises of as many Hardcore heavyweights as possible, both past and present. Sound, production and visuals will also all surpass anything you have seen at any previous HU event.
Add yourself to the event page here:
https://www.facebook.com/events/673806359329553
Pre-order the album AND an early bird ticket (limited numbers) exclusively from our store now. General ticket sales begin this Friday.

Probably worth mentioning that this is the Happy Hardcore Underground launch party, too.
