Long shot, but do they have this in retail stores? I'm in NYC, have a buddy in London right now. I could have him pick it up if that's possible.

Nope, sorry, it's through our site only. If he is based in the uk he can order and bring back?

Know that feels, I briefly forgot how poor I was and went to HMV to get it, as I did so many other HU CD's but alas it wasn't there. I could have got CXH9, but I prefer Hardcore music. I've got a lot of money to spend on sorting my own music stuff out, so I'll have to sit tight and wait for the government to buy it for me (student loan)

Yea, we frown upon illegal file sharing here. We're here to promote and financially support the music and the scene, not leech off of it.

I've generally been sticking in EP4's with HU6 and Launch Bundles, although will have to stop fairly soon as I don't have many left!

haha looks like Archefluxx is SOL seeing as how he said he was avoiding this bundle.
Don't forget Jon that you are putting aside everything that you've released from the beginning of the year till now, including EPs, for me. I may not have the $$$ now, but you know I'll be good for it! Well, eventually lol

Yeah, by "digital download" I meant something off Amazon, etc. I did that for the last Iron Maiden album, it was easy as pie.

Okay, so. Overall, a very fcuking good album. Probably doesn't quite beat Hardcore Underground 4 as my favourite, but it's not far off. For those people that have been slightly distressed about Hardcore getting too Dubby and Electro-y - then this album should restore some faith and encourage those that were thinking of giving up on Hardcore to not do so.
The Scott Brown & Al Storm mix is very strong. Ever-so-slightly disappointed to see a small number of older tracks on there, but other than that - it's a great mix. The stand-out tracks for me are Guiding Light, Stylin' On You, Breaking, Feel The Friction and Extermination. Additional mention to Daniel Seven for Valley, as well.
The Fracus & Darwin mix is probably my favourite. The first forty-five minutes in particular are phenomenal. The Don't Be Lonely and Love Of My Life remixes are off the bloody charts, especially Don't Be Lonely. Gonna make a bold statement and say that it's better than the original. The Promises track is a bit of an interesting one. When it's being mixed in it so gorgeously-uplifting and chirpy, and the main riff and thrust of the music is, again, really quite uplifting. But the vocal is quite, I dunno, melancholy in nature. Good quality, but just a bit of a contradictory kind of vibe. Tell you what, I would love to hear an instrumental of that. But yeah, I'm digressing - the whole mix is bang-on, basically. Proper bloody good stuff.
Generally speaking, Breakbeat Hardcore doesn't do it for me. That's not because I've not opened my mind, or because I've not heard the right stuff - structurally, affectingly, feelingly - it just doesn't push my buttons like four-four Hardcore. So, it seems a little silly for me to leave feedback on this mix. I have listened to it all the way through twice, however, and found that Rowan's track Feel It is easily my favourite. Alive is exceptional, as well, actually.
Freeform. My passion, interest and familiarity with Freeform has grown exponentially over the past twenty four months, and this mix is a powerful example of why. Proper ridiculous collection of individual tunes, and a proper ridiculously well-structured and organised mix. Fcuking loving some of those harder sounds at the end. The Like A Bulldozer remix is fcuking amazing. Douglas' remix of Fulla Culture is absolutely huge. Difference is a great track, as well. Great to see Technikore involved in something like that! Plenty of other tracks in there that deserve mentions as well (including lots of gorgeous uplifting stuff from the likes of jD-KiD and 3Star etc.). One of my favourite tracks of the year is on there, as well - Latika. Proper close call with this and the Fracus & Darwin mix. I think this Freeform mix will mature like powerful cheese and go on to become one of my favourite mixes of recent years.
Overall, a pretty special album. Confidence-inducing stuff (for people's Hardcore-outlooks in general).

Fracus' solo stuff has never quite hit the mark for me, it's generally "quite good", but All Night is absolutely fantastic!
