Didn't you already ask this question? Or am I think of something/someone else?

This is the one! Massive killjoy of a link but it has everything from that period.

Here's a few that came to mind but may have been mentioned already with all the links flying around. Sorry for any duplicates...

That "10 Years of Hardcore Vol. 2" is rare, apparently. I'm fortunate enough to have a copy but I got it from HMV at the time.

What I find interesting about CDs/albums from this period is that it's roughly when sequencing took over from the traditional style of mixing and the tightness of the mixes improved dramatically (although, I've always preferred the actual craftsmanship of proper mixes) yet the sound quality is miles off what it is today. It must be all down to the samples and production gear of the time, i.e. the tunes themselves.

No that wasn't it. Probably was someone else entirely.

Trying to avoid what has already been suggested:

Illegal Ravers



Goes through various genres ending in some Freeform and DnB. Top CD and such a nice progressive mix.

The WOW series from JAL is an interesting one too, deffo worth picking these up:

http://justanotherlabel.com/cat/albums/;/1/series.htm?p=1

Hardcore Tsunami/Hardcore Tunez series

Few albums put out by Silver

100%, 200%, 300% and 400% Nu Energy series

Should be in your collection. I'm sure there was a 100% Hardcore in a similar format but I can't find it online. Will have to check my CD's when I'm at home.

Next Generation and Blatant Beats: The Collection 1/2/3

What more needs to be said.

Hardcore Cheddar v Hardcore terror: The Backlash

It's older stuff but came out in that time period. Should still be in your collection. ;)

Hardcore: A New Beggining/The Second Coming/The Third Wave

Essential Scott Brown and Neophyte business.

I'm sure I've got plenty more I'm forgetting, I'll have to take a look later.

Nice, nice. My train gets in at 13.26. Meeting Ben and Big Matty about 2ish. Sound good?

Mmmm, yeah. Interesting observation.

Explain to me how sequencing works exactly (I imagine this is ultra basic 101 stuff for most people!)?

Nice one mate. I've got the two HTID CDs, and I've been meaning to pick up the Hardwired's for years. And yeah, also heard that the 10 Years of Hardcore Vol. 2 is pricey as fcuk as well.

Very interesting. Cheap, as well.

Building quite a list of items here! Can't wait for those deliveries to start!
