I think this is definately the best Bonkers release for a while now. Each mix has a top track selection and each cd is mixed well.
I'm really liking Sharkeys mix this time as its a lot better than his previous mixes.
Scott Browns mix is wild as always and most of the tracks are longer.
Hixxys mix is also top quality with a great selection of tunes.
The Breeze & Styles mix is also good with a lot of their new tracks and remixes.

listening to it at the moment - im really enjoying it, it seems a bit fresher than 11, which smelt of the other hardcore cds out at the time lol

Someone's just been discussing this album on facebook. Thought I'd have a look back in time and see what you punks thought about it at the time, since I regard it as one of the better (top three) from the series.
The Legend's mix blows me away still. Amazing.
Madness to think a sick album like this got five pages of discussion compared to the insane amount of chatter about present day albums that aren't a patch on this.

Been saying the same bloody thing for 9 years (almost to the day, weird!) haven't you!

My only complaint is that the Styles and Breeze mix is really slow (I checked, it doesn't go above 168 BPM). It's a great mix, just wish it was a little quicker.

No, I just mean when everyone's throwing a strop about the latest tracklist looking shit or whatever - Deano strolls in with the standard "I'll wait until I've heard it" line (rightly so), and I'm pleased to discover he's been consistent all these years!

That's funny - I'd never thought about it or noticed, but yeah, it does trudge along a smidge. Doesn't detract from it, I don't think.

Also I really wish Re-Con - The Sun got a digital release
WHAT a fcuking track! Capitals and italics for that one. Many-a-time I've turned to that track on the last leg of a run when my lungs feel like they're going to explode.
Not recently though. I'm a disgustingly fat piece of shit at the moment. #BloatedRaver

Re-Con has done some exceptional stuff over the years. This is one of my favourites. Really original sound to it. Again, another I'd love to have digitally.

Yet another Trance rip. The fact i don't like any version of it, including the 80's original, doesn't help. As soon as i saw the name i knew what it would be a rip of.

So me describing it as original couldn't be more inaccurate?
