Some MCs have been on the mic longer than most of us have been raving, and MC Natz is one of them. Natty Oliver, known to the Doncaster crowd as The Godfather, has announced he is retiring, and The Doncaster Warehouse is throwing him a retirement rave on Saturday 28th November.

The club calls him the longest serving MC in the whole of the UK underground scene, and says he has been with them from day one. Topgroove, Easy D and Rush, MZone, Paul O, Simz, Jake Nicholls and Skandal are on the bill, and the early bird tickets have already sold out. The Doncaster Free Press picked up the story too. Enjoy the send off, Natz!

Bonkers has been flying the flag since 1996, and now it's going big. The first names are in for Bonkers Sheffield at Network on Saturday 10th April 2027, and it's Bonkers legends Hixxy, Sharkey and Scott Brown.

The promoters are calling it their biggest Bonkers event yet: an indoor and outdoor mini festival from 1pm to 10pm, with 50+ artists across four arenas of hardcore, freeform, hardstyle, hard house, bounce, classics and more. Tickets are on sale now. That's a lot of names still to come!

So much for the final chapter! Just a day after Sanctuary Forever said goodbye to the old V7 Saxon Street site on 7th November, Forever Presents and ESP have revealed Dreamscape - The Return to V7 Saxon St, at Arena MK on Saturday 6th November 2027.

If you were raving in the 90s you'll know Dreamscape called The Sanctuary home, and the brand has been out on a 35th anniversary tour this year. There's no lineup yet, just the date and the flyer, which is already up on Forever's events page. More as we get it. Better get the whistles ready!

Klubfiller's Ravelife imprint is still putting out proper label packs. Ravelife EP #2 dropped on 5th November 2026 (cat RL024), a ten-tracker of hardcore and hard dance with Klubfiller's Words opening the set.

Also on the bill: 2 Sick Puppiez, Levelz, Nuton, Blitz 1 & Shel-B, Squibz, Ben Journiee, D-Willz, Yannis Gorak and Hyperblaster. Harderstate logged the full tracklist the same day, and it's up on the Ravelife Bandcamp. Nice to see a working UK hardcore label feeding the scene with a proper EP rather than just singles. Check it out!

Fracus and Darwin have been one of the most reliable UK hardcore doubles for years, and they've just put another one out on their Brutal Kuts imprint. Signals For Anarchy landed on 29th October 2026 (cat BKRP121) with an Original Mix and an Extended Mix, clocking the Original at 3:03 of happy hardcore according to the listings.

Brutal Kuts is home turf for the pair, so no surprises there, just another solid hit of modern UK hardcore from a duo who know exactly what they're doing. Have a listen!

If you've followed Al Storm's Dark Shadows series you'll know Halloween is when the horror hardcore comes out to play. This year he went one better and put out two full albums at once: Dark Shadows Part IX: Burn The Witch (247HCLP042) and Dark Shadows Part X: Bloodlines (247HCLP043), both on 24/7 Hardcore around 30th October 2026.

Fifteen tracks apiece, with names like Scott Brown, Eufeion, M-Project, Rob IYF and Klubfiller in the mix alongside Al Storm himself. Part X is also up as a double CD on the 247 Hardstore. Proper seasonal album news from a label that still knows how to throw a Halloween party. Check it out!

Eufeion's been busy lately (Skybound on Fox Hop was only a week ago), and he's already back with a fresh one. Atlantis landed on 6th November 2026 via 24/7 Hardcore (cat 247HC439), with an Extended Mix and a Radio Mix.

He called it a vocal happy hardcore cut about a girl searching for the city of Atlantis where she can be free amongst the sea waves, and put it out on streaming the same day. Good to see a rising UK hardcore name keeping the releases coming. Have a listen!

Japanese rave mainstay M-Project has been flying the UK hardcore flag for years via Off Me Nut, Mokum and his own Terraform Music, and he's just put out Noctilucent (TFCD-027), his first UKHC-focused album in three years since Rave Expedition 3.

The 10-tracker mixes brand new cuts with remodelled favourites including Vibrations and Bright Future, plus a collab with HiroHiro on More Than Enough. Geek Jack opened international CD orders on 5th November 2026, and M-Project himself shared the news on X. Proper album news from a producer who knows how to keep the rave sound alive. Check it out!

Two names that need no introduction if you've got any 90s hardcore in your bones: Charly Lownoise and Dune. They've teamed up with vocalist Diandra Faye on Heaven Is A Place, out since 30th October 2026 on Bionic Bear (cat BIO105).

The You Love Dance write-up calls it a hard-hitting hard dance smasher with pure happy hardcore energy and a 90s touch, and the single comes with an Original Mix and an Extended Mix. Nice to see the old school icons still making new ones. Check it out!

If you were around in the 90s you'll know Dune, and if you weren't, Hardcore Vibes and Who Wants To Live Forever probably still ring a bell. The German happy hardcore legend is back with a modern remake of George Benson's Nothing's Gonna Change My Love For You (NGCMLFY), out now on UK hardcore label OneSeventy (cat ONESEVENTY244).

He premiered it live at We Love The 90s in the Netherlands last year, and the single finally landed this week with an Extended Mix and a Radio Edit. OneSeventy is usually home to the modern UK hardcore crew, so it's a nice crossover for a classic name. Have a listen!
