Styles & Breeze, I miss the old rave tunes! stop this sped up chart music LOL <-- that's how i feel about xtreme 8, xtreme 6 was the best of them all :) no electro, no breakbeat drops(instead of amazing riffs), no dnb basslines.
I will probably still end up buying this album, but I prefer the old Uk hardcore

Sure is alot of petruccio and modulate, although I can't say I'm surprised as they originally pushed the electro sound.

First off in the positive side of things :-
Sensible number of tracks on each mix!
No Al storm!
Fracus and Darwin haven't got nearly half the bloody tracklist!
I'm sold already :-)
Bit concerned about the amount of petruccio and modulate but i'm open minded and will be giving this album a blast based on how much i've enjoyed the previous volumes.

Agreed, Al Storms songs on 7 were absolutely crap, though I can never get enough of Fracus and Darwin
EDIT: TBH I thought Klubfillers songs were the worst though, they are literally my least favorite hardcore songs of all time. I have low expectations for him this time around.

Have Fracus and Darwin ever had half the tracklist on a clubland CD? I don't even remember seeing them on a CXH CD but I lost interest at around volume 5-6, it just seems kind of unlikely to me.

Lack of variety works on some albums and kills others...

I've lost interest in Al Storm ever since he stopped producing tracks with Spinback. The Happy & Bass-heavy songs he made before teaming up with spin where superb. Maybe he should do tracks like that again :(

CXH8 is funded by a company that can afford to pay a whole bunch of artists to appear, or at the very least is well established enough via paid-marketing to attract enough artists to their CD. HU is completely indie in comparison so to compare it isn't fair at all, not even in quality of tracks really; which is actually really funny because HU destroys CXH in terms of quality anyway.

where React Music a large label? As they filed for bankrupcy (twice!), it comes like a small label, or did it only have a horrible management? just trying to make an Bonkers comparison here aswell.

Not sure really. Did Bonkers ever have TV adverts here? I like Bonkers but I've never really followed it and always have been more of a Happy 2B Hardcore person. I just think it's silly to compare something that is a commercial franchise with it's own TV commercials (not saying this is good or bad) to something started to fill a gap in the market (But y'know, by all means go ahead because the winner is pretty clear).

Al Storm is a really top notch producer, produced so many top quality tunes. I think at this moment he is experimenting to see where he wants to sit in the industry, if you follow him on soundcloud he is producing more jungle. But i also mean his hardcore is a bit older sounding riffs on one track (wherever you go), then a upfront track ( the awakening), then an experimental track (Get ya hands up) ( thats my opinion, could be totally wrong.)
Fracus & Darwin are also really really good. But they are different from Al production wise. I prefer fracus on his own when he does uplifting vocal stuff. Darwin has never really had me banging on about his tracks or playing them out, but from listening to his tunes you can see that this guy is really talented and produces some quality sounding tunes & has a massive fanbase from this.
Modulate & Petruccio have brought the electro & dubstep into hardcore and it seems that some people are worried that this is the way hardcore is going to stay and that they have ruined the 4/4 upfront happy part of the core, as ive said before i think its ****in amazing what there doing and am glad s&b have taken influence from this sound. Al said to me 3 years ago on nye that hardcore will be all electro sounding in a years time, i thought to myself **** off whats he on about, another 12 months on and it started bursting through (HES LIKE MYSTIC ****IN MEG OR SOMETHING.)
Dont worry tho, i think this x-treme will do really well and hit two sides of the market - Dirty & Uplifting
Dont think its going to please all you HU fans tho as its a completely different take on hardcore the same way as most of you HU fans dont like x-treme albums

don't know if this helps but:
Bonkers had TV adverts for every one after Bonkers 9 (and one for Vol1 in japan)
Hardcore Heaven had TV commericals for all of its ones from Volume 5 (original series) and onwards
Original Hardcore had TV commericals for all of its
Hardcore Adrenaline had TV commericals for all of its
Hardcore Euphoria had a tv commercial
Hardcore Nation had TV adverts for all of its
all the recent Helter Skelters Vs' albums have tv adverts too!
no idea if that helps, but someone might find the info useful, i'm still on the lookout for Hardcore Heaven Volume 5 tv advert, but I guess its unlikely anyone happened to catch it on VHS back in 99 :(

I don't think it's fair to assume that there are opposing camps called HU and Clubland. I judge music on a per-track basis and, even though I tend to gravitate towards the "HU camp", there are HU tracks that do nothing for me and CXH tracks that I just can't get out of my head. But the electro shizzle? Tasty in small doses. This is waaay overboard.
