Just flicked through the Powerstomp unmixed very rapidly, a few stand out tracks on there but I'm not into quite a lot of it, that's actually what I expected - I'm not massive on his style but there's a couple of remixes/old vocals that I'm feeling and that's worth the entry price alone.
HU6, F&D is on now, but I'm only on track 1, I know I'll love it but I guess I'll come post after I've heard a bit more

We included the Douglas remix of Ascending Angels to flow into the Endemic remix and then into Astrid and the whole section sounded amazing but the Douglas remix had to be taken out and the Endemic remix extended in the mix and it didn't come out like we wanted it to. I could moan a lot more but I'm staying pro, cos I am pro.
A coaster though? We spent 2 and a bit days sweating in my decks room doing that mix, sorry you didn't like it but I think there's some great tunes on there!

Note the ds for "direct sale". We have to leave the normal range open if/when we want a mainstream release. Coz we iz HUUUUUJ!

Is that actually a thing? I did wonder...I always assumed it was just an arbitrary code

Only just in and opened the envelope, thanks for me extra freebie!
Will post something more meaningful tomorrow when I can actually listed to them!

Ripped CD1 to the iPod and gave it a bash, skimmed some tracks to get through it but impression is that this is a cracker of a disc. I can see this getting hammered in the car! Also nice to see it is not a 100% SB & AS showcase which some mixes can turn into.

.... This made me instantly think of these tv commercials we have to suffer through from a local car company in Buffalo. Someone was nice enough to split it out in the youtube clip:
... Now back to HU reviews. I am patiently waiting for mine to arrive via international post, but anticipate loving most of it! The best thing about a Hardcore Underground album is that there will always be something for everyone. Vladel is always pretty harsh in his judgements of cds so I wouldn't take that to heart Thumpa - I'm looking forward to your mix!

Disc 1 - Quite like this one, although it didn?t blow me away - stand out tracks are Kerrang!, Music Blocks, Don?t Doubt Me, and Complicated.
Disc 2- Wow!!!! Fracus & Darwin have outdone themselves; Free From Form is awesome! really great catchiness right from the start. I really enjoyed the whole disc tbh and loved the style of hardcore showcased. Top job.
Disc 3 - I was expecting something equal to disc 3 from hardcore underground 5, unfortunately this disc didn?t deliver - it had potential on some tracks, say goodbye, Feel It, and the screwface remix are really great, but it wasn?t a touch on the breakbeat disc from 5.
Disc 4 - Great disc! really enjoyed the mix of freeform on there and i think Thumpa and Obie have done a great job showcasing what?s about at the moment. Some nice Gabba at the end as well.
Overall great job, nice packaging too, very professionally finished product, added with the bonus EP disc; thank you hardcore underground!
