Hey international crew with qualifying orders!
I've spend part of my Xmas day creating a new e-mail list, and truly awful e-mail template, so y'all can have EP5 today.
Check your e-mail, and enjoy.
See you in 2016 
CDJay @ HU

Still, the only way to purchase the tracks afterwords is to hope that someone pirates it.

If they complain after that, they're just being pissy or a bunch of hypocrits (*waves at thumpa*).
End of story; If it really was about the music, they shouldn't complain that people pirate it after it's sold out (forever).
It's never okay to pirate stuff as much as you try and justify it.

Well, if it wasnt for piracy, I would probably never have heard of Happy Hardcore, never became a member of this website, never meet any of the fine lads on here or spend thousands of bucks on the genre. There's always 2 sides of a coin/arguement. But I guess piracy is so bad I should just f* off right?
Edit 1: I know that there are pricks who pirates stuff even when they can afford buying. I am not defending those turds.

Probably for the better.
Look you're not underage anymore you're at an age where you know better about pirating yet you still choose to do it.
Either way, young or not, it's still illegal at any age. And this isn't just about hardcore music, this is about every music genre as well as other media like films, television or audiobook.
Speaking of piracy, a few days ago MC Enemy was bitching on facebook that his album with MOB was already available for piracy, and encouraged everyone to go out and buy it. A few days later he was talking about websites where he can freely watch and download films. What a hypocritical dick.

Well, Talking about stupid laws or not, I wonder how many people in the UK know that it's still illegal to make backup (or ripping to your computer/mp3 player) of your bought music? :P Anyways, if MC Enemy where in Sweden, he wouldn't be that much of a hypocrite. Even tho it's illegal for people to upload movies to a website, it's still legal to stream them as a user (download is still illegal, but streaming is so far OK. It will probably be changed soon).

I wasn't having go at yourself or anything, if you got into it through that method then that's great, everyone knows when they are doing right and wrong when you get to this age, if you've waited around too long to buy a limited edition album and then suddenly you can't get it, then you missed out it's just too bad, the lines are blurry sometimes but I guess the main point is, in a small scene like hardcore if you want it to grow and more music to be made, then some of the best producers need some incentive to keep doing it as for some it's their livelihood, I know of lots of producers that I've contacted to make music for me and they do love the music but have to focus on other projects because that's what pays the bills, for me it's just a hobby and I have a full time job but for some it's different

Well if I miss out, then it's definitly my fault. But if someone got into Hardcore right now? How would they know that there are artists who only makes things a limited edition, in an age where most is digitally available 24/7 (legally and illegally).
In my opinion, Limited stuff just hurts the scene in the long run, as the only ones that has ability to get what they want have either been around since the 90's (been able to get the vinyls on release) or are quick to get stuff now (users on this forum). No, leave limited edition to extra content.
And just to quote Advarther again:
quote:
GET IT NOW!! ONLY 300 COPIES!! NO REPRESSES!!!
It's almost as if they don't want the music out there or they want people acquiring it some other way.

For smaller labels sitting on unsold stock doesn't make the CD model worth while, by saying it's limited it adds incentive to shift copies quickly and then they can move onto the next project

Yes, I kind of miss doing that tbf.
I don't *like* running out of things, and if I could go back in time and press more HU4 / 2010s I definitely would, but having stacks of boxes of CDs lying around for each project isn't entirely thrilling.
*glares at Presents 2013*
We'll likely be moving, next year, to more limited CD runs with faster digital releases as the stock depletes. That seems like the best way to preserve the model that is currently working, whilst facilitating a burgeoning international base.

spare CDs make great coasters though, or to prop up that wonky dining room table ;)
