No.
For one, I wouldn't care for a Vibes album, and for another, because the majority, if not all, of the tracks featured will be bootlegs, and that'll be a nightmare and a legal risk to do considering that it's illegal to profit off of bootlegs if you don't have the consent from the original owners of those tracks to profit off of them. Sure you can say that HU is a small label compared to these larger labels and would probably not ever notice, but I don't believe Jon would want to risk that chance.

Yeah, I'd figured that was one of the main reasons you never really see them. I never thought it would actually happen but i'd love it if it did!

So is DJ Vibes supposed to be mixing the album? I was presuming it would be compiled by Hardcore Underground and mixed by individual (s) who are part of HU.

you're talking about the HHU album? One cd is being mixed by Vibes and Chwhynny. And there are 2 albums of unmixed tracks.

Yeah. Fair enough, wouldn't have been my choice for who would be involved in the mixes. Looking forward to seeing the tracklisting. Hopefully more kick drum than breakbeat tracks.

Yes, it's unfair that Chwhynny gets to sleep her way to a mix on the HHU album! Only joking Jon and Chwhynny 
I am actually looking very forward to the mix, as I've never actually heard Chwhynny mix before live or streaming/download. Vibes' mixing is hit or miss for me, so I hope that Chwhynny brings in a great balance to the mix.

Not entirely correct!
CD1 is unmixed; largely of stuff either that we should have released years ago but couldn't or didn't.
CD2 is mixed by Vibes & Chwhynny, moving from happy through to melodic via hard to end.
CD3 is mixed by DJ Storm & Bananaman and moves around whilst largely maintaining the HH status quo
It's essentially entirely 4-beat, bar the odd breakdown or midsection. No "breaks" as the definitive article.
There's a lot of stuff that if only on the mixed CDs, remix wise, is largely spaced against fairly imminent artist albums. There's, in fact, some bleed with the Brisk and S&E albums, for example.
We're considering doing a retro BBHC thing on a future project; not this one. I've had strong and long discussions with various parties incensed that this facet isn't properly showcased in this instance and I'm more keen to be proven wrong than half arse anything at this late stage

S&E? Slipmatt and Eruption?

S&E = Storm & Euphony.
I *want* to post the tracklist. I *want* to finalise the mixes. There are three outstanding licenses, from one licensee. I know for a fact that if I fail to get at least one of these, there will be endless bleating about "why isn't xxxxx" on there. Last hurdle. So tired. Gah.
If I don't get some sort of useful resolution soon I may resort to public petitioning so stand ready, eh?

Wasn't sure where to put this but something that is really pissing me off at the mo is the low numbers of previews on the HU site for upcoming albums. Hu Tools Vol 2 has one preview and that's some of Fracus & Darwins poorer work. Klubbed up anthems has about ten and it's not enough to just buy something out of faith like why i bought the brisk album and not the dougal and gammer one. I did find some more previews of HU tools vol 2 tracks but it's not ideal but i haven't heard anything on either of them that makes me want to part with cash.
-On a special side note of particular annoyance is how Promises by Fracus & Darwin (also what i consider to be the best track they have ever made) is on HU tools vol 1. I want this track but damned am i playing ?10 + postage for it as i'm not fussed about anything else on that album.
- On another side note: Dougal & Mickey Skeedale - On A High (Chris Fear & Ajay HU Mix) RELEASE this F*****G song! and not on a silly ten track effort either see above special note.

We fully intended to have a near complete clip list for DJ Tools Vol 2 sorted for the start of this week *but* Fracus moved house and his internet installation got put back until the 9th, forcing him to fall back on a 1gb mobile internet dongle. My motherboard failed, with the replacement I hastily procured being faulty, then when I got up and running again my main SSD appears to have been taken out losing well.. everything really. It will take some time to get back up to speed in light of this.
I have no ownership or clue what is happening to that remix of "On a High" but I will try to find out.
It's not a conspiracy to antagonise you.
I'll be honest; we're pretty burned out at this point. Trying to keep on top of all of the albums against the backdrop of the wider scene is far from a fulfilling and rewarding activity.
Oh, finally, I mentioned it in another post but I'll reiterate it in a more general way here too. Podcast. We do one, around every 4-6 weeks. Almost everything ends up being showcased on there, making it a good way to keep up to date with both the music and our intentions for it. We're due to do another one, in the next fortnight or so.
CDJay
edit: I misread/interpreted what you said about Promises; the issue is that it isn't available as a single track? That will be rectified in the future, once physical stocks are depleted. As it stands I think there's around 50 or so left for sale, so it shouldn't be too long.

Also thought, as I am tired and it is worth noting, that it is great that anyone can get pissy about clips and our apparent ineptitude. Ask yourselves one thing: If we snap and justifiably flee.... What is left?
Edit: More whining. Not much point. Either people support it, or not. No need for doomsday prophecy.
