Not even UFO have the Music Makers digitally, but then the guy had a harddrive crash too (I heard about this far, far before I ever heard that Hixxy had the same problem)
UFO has been trying very hard to digitise his music, but it would suck if some was lost to a Hard drive crash.
Mr UFO, if you're reading this, try software called Recuva.
KFA got Saiyan in who has done a great job in modernising the label and pushing it forward. Hixxy needs someone to do it on his behalf too.
Hello mate! Good to see you again. How's things? :)
I meant to add you on FB ages ago after our chat on SC but this year has been a disaster for me on every single level and I completely lost the plot. I was looking forward to it as well.

RB stuff I have digitally, either off Hixxy or UFO
Sky Diving
You're Shining
Breaka
Connections
Sonic
Back 2 The Old Skool
Taking Me Higher
The Theme
I Adore
You're My Angel
Getting Better
Heaven In My Heart
Punk
plus 5/6 more
Loads I've not got, would love the 2001 stuff digitally.
Hixxy, UFO, Breeze, Styles, Dougal will 100% have wavs on a CD somewhere in a CD wallet, they could make a shit load of money if they did a double CD or something with all the classics on plus a mix, I'm not sure why it hasn't been done to be honest...there's money to be made.

Wouldn't mind all of those in my collection. Yeah i agree, would be an excellent idea to be fair and something i would definitely be interested in buying!

I agree, a lot of people would like the opportunity to get hold of the RB back catalogue digitally and would pay a fair price.
The MoS album released last year was an example of how not to do this though, the versions included in the download I bought on iTunes were all short edits, really disappointing.

Well I know at least UFO has some of his RB stuff digitally because I saw him play it off his controller/CDJ setup he has during his facebook stream back at the end of November.
He played is remix of Deep Inside (not the New infinity version), Breaka, New Years Day. So I know hes at least has his stuff. I am hoping he plans on releasing this on Ufology. I was able to get Breaka and Hardcore off IMO years ago. Deep Inside and NYD still nothing though

To add to this, Hixxy has used some of his tracks on the 100% Clubland Hardcore last year or the year before which included the unreleased remix of Welcome which I think was also featured on the first Clubland Hardcore Xtreme album. So he obviously has access to his back catalogue in some form or another.
Dougal kinda made some of his music available recently but still loads of it isn't up online. It's really very much bits and pieces.

Did he sell them the back catalogue of his 90s stuff as well as they seem to have put up some of that as well, though I also noted that a couple of tracks weren?t from the Essential Platinum label such as Ham & DNA ?About U? and E-Logic & DNA ?Bridge over Troubled Water?. I guess the label isn?t important to Dougal anymore as he seems to just release his stuff on other peoples labels instead.

I can see why Dougal would release on other labels TBH, it's not like Essential Platinum has youtube/instagram/facebook pages with thousands of people following, which is where the value of a label is these days.

And as Thumpa said, if I were in their position I'd have done a CD or download pack release by now; fewer and fewer people are going to be interested as time goes on. Good to know that there are digital copies of some tracks floating around at least.

Yea, in a similar way to what CDJay said about preservation, the longer you wait, less successful will the recovery progress become.

There are a good few tracks from EP missing and I wonder if there are legal obstacles preventing them from getting released digitally. I could see the same thing happening with any Raver Baby releases as a number of them were remixes of Clubland tracks.
