Tune matey!
Really digging transcend - domination at the moment jay. The breakdown into fast acid hoover section is the most impressive thing i've ever heard in production for some time. Amazing track :)

Ahh mate, Domination is sick. I bought it a few weeks ago myself, and along with Ice Cream by Douglas, and Think Again by A.B & SynthWulf - I've had it on repeat constantly.
Some of the Freeform around at the moment is just sensational. And having been to a few events with lots of Freeform lately - it's really stepped up my interest in it. So good.
Where abouts in the UK are you mate? Do you get out to raves much?

Yeah mate as soon as I heard that track I stuck it in my basket and had a big smiley face - freeform seems like the most work goes into the music for me. Always sounds so technical. Amazing stuff.
I'm in Warrington it's smack bang in the middle of Manchester / Liverpool. I've only been to about 5 or 6 raves roughly. Furthest i've travelled is to birmingham for NEC arena and the Carling Academy there. I only seem to get out on NYE's - my friends around here are not really into raving :(

It does all sound so good and polished, doesn't it? Sounds incredible on big systems at raves.

Only a couple of my mate-mates are into raving, and even they rarely come with me. I just meet up with the guys on here, or other raving mates I've met before - or just go on my own. :-) If you ever fancied coming down to one of these amazing London events that are flying about at the moment - you'd be more than welcome to join us for beers and ravings :-) You should.

It's crazy when I listen to some of the early day freeform to what's being produced now. Music boundaries keep getting pushed beyond anything I ever thought would happen.
That does sound cool to do mate - I won't be far of getting my driving license so it would make things so much easier getting there (and probably cheaper). Currently out of action (jobless) but may have a job on the horizon soon so hopefully all goes well and I can get down to some London events and have a good time with everyone :)
I always see jacek coming to london on facebook. Now that is a hardcore raver travelling all that way!

If you travel to Liverpool Chris Big Worm puts on a night in Birkenhead called Horizon. It's mostly gabber but you get UKH too. He gets some really big names to play too. In Manchester you have TLI which is also a good night.

I'm the same as you then mate, not a million miles away from being able to drive as well :-)
I was just thinking earlier - if you can spare just a few quid, me and a load of guys from the forum and some of my mates are going to be going to Stomp in Leeds on April 12th, Less than a tenner to get in, and not a million miles away from you :-)
