Should be working; we'd really hoped to have the per-release and .zip downloading stuff sorted prior but the people have spoken. Have some new music.

I love it for sounding more like an HU mix; it's cake and eat it too time.
We're only here because you guys support us, and tolerate our missteps. Ambition is usually our undoing, but someone needs to show some

Boo. As much as I love the HU series, I enjoy the differences in the styles of a HU Fracus & Darwin mix and what they did on HU's HH1 and was hoping they'd repeat it here. Speaking of which, are there still plans to do a HU8, or are you going to focus on pushing more HH albums?

Don't get me wrong, it doesn't sound like an HU mix just moreso. It's a fusion; mainstream baiting but more interesting.
As for HU8, the HU series is supposed to showcase the genre "in all its glorious forms". There's so little subgenre activity, atm, I don't think we could make an album that does what we need it to. My suspicion is that we need a bit more time and energy focused on A&Ring new mid tier artists who can then make their mark. I'm hoping to do HU8 in 2018, but it's genuinely difficult to say.

started with disc 2. it's aight. wayyyy too much powertstomp influence for my tastes. pretty much a powerstomp mix; with maybe 3 or 4 uk hardcore tracks in there. wasnt really expecting something different though. alot of hardcore guys are really pushing that weak; slow; elongated powerstomp kick with the whiny hardstyle influenced synths; and like zero hardcore snare on most of the tracks. Just a boring sound; personally. like head bobbving music. not my fast hardcore stomp stomp sound i dance too.
if anyone unsure what I mean; swoop that daniel seven import mix. now that is a BANGER mix; tracks and all. dude is such a boss; and so on point. I guess though disc 2 is for disc 2 kind of people though... like ****. do peopel really like powerstomp hardcore more than hardcore breaks?
nobody i know does. dnb does way better.
Hotchkiss def saved the day; with a few other tracks. Sure the f & d disc will treat me much better.

"focused on A&Ring new mid tier artists who can then make their mark. "
Japan?
Not sure I have seen a fresh hardcore artist come out of anywhere else in a few years.

Odd you should say that, as I will be on the next one. Far, far too many people are treating HU like a store which should run with absolute efficiency on par with Amazon. Far, far too few people realise just what it takes to get these projects to happen, and how often other people drop the ball and we get to be held to account for it.
So I'm going to vent.
There's a place for different experiences and expectations; let's look at the food industry. I like fast food franchises, but it's largely different to a high end restaurant. The high end restaurant you might need to make a reservation for. The high end restaurant might make you wait for a seat at a table. The high end restaurant might even make you wait 20-40 minutes for food.
Expecting HU to basically carry the entire scene, with one full time staff member, and one part time artist/admin guy, action/manage projects, deal with the rest of the scene, do accounts for tens of projects with hundreds of licensees *and* respond to every email or order in minutes is completely impractical.
Someone happily said in the HH thread on FB today "it shouldn't have gone out unless it was ready", which sounds sensible to me. We tested it as best we could, yet one product variant fell over. Rather than answering every FB query or scattered post/reply as it came in we scrambled behind the scenes to fix it for everyone rather than spending time telling everyone we'll get it fixed once we're done telling people we'll get it fixed. Also the "get it out when it's ready and/or we can be arsed" is an option that most of the rest of the scene seems to have taken with little positive effect.
(Maybe I'm off base, everyone else seems to spend their time having meetings and talking about grandiose schemes that never seem to actually happen.)
Aaaaaand, exhale
