Actually now that I think about it, I got HU5 new in Pompey, and the second F+D album new in Southend. Looking at the rack, I've got HU2010 too, which I imagine was new. I believe all from HMV for whatever alternative

I think I pira... Bought HU1 soon after release. Much like latinxtc, CD1 and CD2 sort of went over my head - I liked some of it, but my brain was stuck firmly in Clubland and different stuff had yet to push through that. CD3 was plain weird to me, totally unexpected sounds, but since I already liked freeform a lot, it grabbed my attention. After a few listens I was hooked.
Then came subsequent albums, then I became online friends with Mikey (Nu Foundation), then I got in touch with Fracus because of web stuff, then I started booking the HU DJs for my hardcore club nights... Weird and intense times, surreal even, but full of priceless moments and experiences. And some of the best music I've ever heard and probably would ever hear.
10 years, god almighty. And HU7, not counting everything else they've released.
Wow.

So much good hardcore came out in 2006!
Also, whatever happened to Mozz?

The first ever promo CD I got for DJ'ing was the RFU album in 2003, and I'd already known CDJay for maybe a year by that point. So...from there really. Always had a close eye on RFU/HU stuff since then!

He kinda half gave up in 2008/9, he's got 3 kids and he's done his house up, getting a new production PC soon I think. He's one of my best mates and I still see him regularly, he still listens to new hardcore in his work van and loves powerstomp!

Kinda like the same way I discovered hardcore in the 2009/2010. I was browsing through Hands Up releases, and found an UK Hardcore track that made me dig the genre, so, through Kraftyradio, I heard about this label, and I bought Hardcore Underground volume 4.

It must've been late 2007 or early 2008, since RFU was still releasing stuff at that point. I had heard Enraptured Soulz through a rhythm game a couple years before, so I think I somehow got to it from searching for Invader or something. I managed to get HU1 and HU2 off of Amazon (apparently this is some kind of miracle but I didn't know it at the time), and I thought those were pretty good. I got to USH shortly before CDJay posted the clip for Let Me In, and that blew my mind.
