hey, my first post, i've been reading the site and the forums for months and months and now i've finally decided to post!
i've listened to bonkers 9 to 14 + since 11 i think hixxy's mixxes have been dissapointing. didn't like much of his mix on 13 and 12 was just average. his 10 and 11 mixes were awesome though so its gutting when you get dissapointed by a top dj/remixer.
my fave dj is SB by far but i'm still undecided on who's mix is the best! i'm not usally into sharkey's freeform at all but i thought his mix was awesome as well. sb's wasn't as good as previous ones but i was still happy with it. like the neckbreaker remix and "call my name",
hard to say which are my fave tracks as i haven't listened to it enough yet but all of AMS's on sharkey's i like and i wish plus system's remix of neck breaker went on longer!
finally a bonkers (since 11) where i'll listen to all the cds, the 12 and 13 cds were dominated by Sb for me.

^^ Hixxy is brilliant!
But he will never be able to produce tunes like the one's on Bonkers X + XI again

i know, i said he was a top remixer/dj but i was dissapointed with his 12 and 13 mixes, 14 is ok though, not listened to it properly yet. his 10 mix is the best i reckon.

i only got interested in the bonkers series when 9 came out but compared to 10 and 11, 12 and 13 were dissapointing compared to these. his 12 was ok though.

ur in4 a treat then dude.. my mrs bought bonkers the day it came out.. the sharkey mix in my opinion is superb.. the new tracks from Arkitech r sounding pretty tasty!! and AMS is on top form with his new releases.. brilliant.. u can always rely on john 2 carry the compilation and push the boundaries.. i cant wait for his new album.. as for the other mixes, i rarely even bother listening to them, scott browns mix is more predictable than bank holiday weather in england, starts off with complete cheese, most of which r just remixes of old evolution tunes, and the 2nd half of the cd is his nu skool techno, which i have to say this time round i really did like.. i wish he would do a mix of just nu skool for bonkers.. there are already hixxy and dougal 2 cater for the happy lovin ravers.. it would be fresh 2 see a whole mix of gabba from scott brown cause i personally am bored shitless of the evolution sound.. great producer yeah, but change the ****in record!!! i noticed ur from finland, in my opinion, react should scrap dougal from the compilation and get either pablo (pain on creation) Alek Schahala or carbon based to step in and turn up the heat... cause finlands where its at for freeform, and they r all damn nice people too!!! respect 2 all finnish freeform producers out there!!!! keep up the hard work!!

freeform doesnt have to be really fast, i love fast hardcore aswell, but just because its maybe a bit slower than usual doesnt mean it doesnt pass as freeform, look at the finnish freeform, it ranges from anything from 150 - 200 bpm.. freeform means it has no boundaries, in my opinion its good not 2 be the same every time, but thats just what i think.. sharkey will always be ontop of my favs list..

Alek Száhala isnt actually a DJ, he does "live shows" or something if hes playing in an event. The mixes from him are mixed using computer, if i remember right. So he couldnt really do a mix for Bonkers ;)
