Anyone else got this CD from the year 2000? Picked it up recently and is probably one of the best oldskool CDs I've bought.
Is full of alot of unknown gems not on other compilations. Best way to describe it is a mixture of transition tracks that were produced at the start of the evolution into the UK Hardcore era and alot of late 90s English Happy Hardcore tracks too.
DJ Unknown has the best mixes on there. Is a very tight flawless mixer...
Breeze, Sy, Vinylgroover and Stompy have some really good sets on there too.

Bought it when it came out! Is absolutely fantastic, one of my most listened to hardcore albums I'd say, full of Donna Grassie vocals :)
worth noting that 4 of the five CDs are actually just older hardcore cds, repackaged...

The stompy mix is short but great. The tracks with Donna Grasie are so atmospheric you forget what a great talent Chris Grayson was

I have it. I don't like how some are un-indexed. Great mixes/material though!

I never knew it was older hardcore cds repackaged. It is annoying how they are all untracked mixes. But the quality of tunes on there does make up for it.
Yeah Stompy was a great producer, as good a Dougal and Vinylgroover for vocal tunes back in the day.

Just load them into Audacity or similar, chop up the mix and re-burn. Simples :)
