Last time i checked, in about 2003 or so, it was in Sutton i think. Or was it Surrey? I forget.
Last time I checked (early spring), they had an address leading to a warhouse in a industrial part. Their current address listed on their homepage lists a area with alot of flats, in Wimbledon.

That's why physical products where/are handy, they act as gatekeepers of quality, so you don't have to check out thousands of substandard releases, just check out the labels who 'do it for you'. That's not to say you shouldn't check out other new music, you should, there might be artists or labels you have missed, but in a digital age where anyone can throw music in your face for not a lot of money, the role of gatekeepers has been diminished, in the days gone by, you had to put your money where your mouth and press up Vinyl. There is much less 'risk' with IMO Download releases. Whilst I'm sure, loads of people 'believe' in their music, I'd bet they would think twice before committing to a press.
Very true, all the Unmixed albums i've picked up so far have been great! The Watchtowers, Rebuild Music Albums, CLSM but to name a few. I buy these albums without even listening to samples which shows the level of quality i've come to expect.

No kidding. You need to check the stuff out each week or you'll get to many tracks to browse -.-
I probably mised out on many obscure good tracks because of it.

I'm not sure but I think he might have been referring to the quality.
On topic: the label Magic Chord has had a good track record so far -- the Stu Infinity remix of Hotter Than Fire is especially good as a big vocal anthem, I love it. And Shimamura's new artist album is well worth checking out imo, although there's some real cheesy stuff on there which might not be your cup of tea based on what you've said so far!

Thanks for the suggestion, i'll check them out. To be honest i've seen this label mentioned a few times, just not got round to checking them out.
What's Shimamura's new album called?
Also it's not so much cheesy stuff i'm not a fan of but not such a big fan of the "Dubcore" stuff, just seems to kill any energy in the track imo.

Yeah, exactly man. Very, very difficult to catch up if you miss a few weeks or months!

It's called MAX. It's mostly a collection of good old happy UK hardcore, not much of the electro/dubby/house-sounding stuff so to speak of. Very strong set of tracks if you like your traditional supersaw-heavy big riff stuff!
