can you name a few freeform tunes with 'happy beats'?
There was a whole little Bouncy Freeform movement around 2006. Have a listen to Sharkey's mix on Bonkers 16 for a few happier Freeform tracks.
Of course, Freeform can be any Hardcore, unless you're referring to the 'genre' it has become.

I don't really remember how it happened but I woke up with a signed copy of this on Saturday morning. I definitely remember buying it (I think someone had to physically take the money out of my wallet because I was so spangled) but it's also been signed by each artist. Absolutely fcuking well chuffed!!
Edit: I think Stamina Man may have sorted it for me, now I think of it? Bloke's a legend.

Got mine yesterday.
Not the sort of stuff I normally like but I listened to the clips and liked what I heard.
Had a quick listen and sounds good, going on a long drive this weekend, listen to music mainly in the car so will be a good to give it a solid blast!

But yeah, that cd is a good example

Well i'm sure he means happy, uplifting, euphoric type hardcore, not dark, acidy, electric type hardcore which a lot of freeform can be

*which all Freeform is.
It seems to me that the genre-boundaries of Freeform have narrowed considerably since 2011

Good. Because it got to a point where everything that wasn't over the top cheesy pop remixes was considered Freeform when it was really just Hardcore. And not even dark Hardcore.

But the essence of the stylistic boundaries of Freeform narrowing into a stringent and excluding genre is the polar opposite of the notion; "free of form". The magic of Freeform being almost anything is that it can be anything in various contexts. In a sense of relativity, if everything is the same, something is not Freeform until it is different.

Just got mine in the mail today. The clips sold me, they sounded sick... and so far, yes.. album is really sick. Really worth the money.
Going to go in for a second play through, sort out my favorite tracks of the album.

Many thanks for all the feedback!
Almost half the stock is gone now so if you want to get these tracks, act quickly! Exclusive to this CD - never to be released in this format again! Once it's gone....it's gone!
