Friendly reminder that was a fun thread. Thanks Archefluxx for the reminder for this.
BTW, none of my choice were spot. Actually, since surpresively F&D had done a lot of stuff on this year, HH6 and TSIHU2 (pls stop... but continue).
About the current line up. Saiyan is new for me. Daniel Seven could be great listen him (sadly didn't picked the X-TREME HARD Promo that he made :(. sorry Dan) and AoS, outstanding producer, any mix that can recommend to listen while I wait for this one?
Shane's a good guy, he's been helping Luna-C with running Kniteforce for a long while so I'm going to assume his mix will be a big mixture of Old-school Hardcore to Modern!
By the way, all of us are seeking submissions, so if anyone reading this produces hit us up on Facebook, or shoot me a WeTransfer at [email protected] with "HU8 submission" in the message field, and note whether or not you want me to share your tracks with Daniel Seven and AoS. Make sure it's an email you can be contacted at. No bootlegs or WIP clips please, we're on a clock. <3
Is their a deadline for submissions. Ive not long finished something experimental... tried a cross over of bass house and hardcore which may work well.... maybe lol

Submissions need to get to us within the next couple of weeks, we've been told to shoot for having final mixes submitted by the end of the month.

Big ups to Shane! Will love seeing some Canadiana on the cover :3. It's nice to see them really throwing a monkey wrench into things with this lineup. Love F&D, Scott Brown, Brisk etc. but this feels like they're bringing it back to the vibe of the first two.

Hey guys, just wanted to take a brief second to say thank you to everyone who submitted tracks. I wish I could take the time to email each of you individually right now, but we're all pretty much done with final selections and license agreements are being sent out, so we're all in crunch mode trying to get everything finished up and ready for release.
Some KILLER stuff got sent in. Only a very small amount wasn't up to standard. And I mean VERY small. There are some insanely talented producers out there, some of you I'd never even heard of before. Future's looking pretty bright for the genre. :D
I may hit some of you up later once this album and one other project are done to inquire about either signing the tracks you sent for KFA, or asking you to do stuff for the label. Feel free to continue sending me stuff (this time unsigned/unreleased ONLY) if you're looking for a home for your tracks, as I'm always looking for new material for KFA, and if you make harder stuff, for Malice, which will be relaunching later this year (finally).
Thanks again everyone! <3

I don't think you realise the actual history of Hardcore Heaven with you being in a country (Sweden) that pretty much never ever had any real Hardcore scene or decent Hardcore djs..
The brand Hardcore Heaven has been around as long as Bonkers. Was a creation of one of the pioneers of the scene DJ Seduction. Who eventually sold the rights off to other hardcore promoters.
So if Hardcore Heaven is mainstream in your eyes, I guess Bonkers is too.
Loads of the best djs mixed on Hardcore Heaven CDs in the 90's. Scott Brown, Marc Smith, Brisk, Hixxy, Slipmatt, Seduction, Sy & Unknown, Dougal.
It's an original UK Happy Hardcore brand with a long history. So why slag it off?

I'd just stick with the Hardcore Heaven series. I prefer it to Hardcore Underground.

Hardcore Heaven NOW is nothing like it used to be. The old Hardcore Heaven CD's and events were decent. You cannot compare the two. One is happy hardcore, the other is UK Hardcore.
It still has the history Hardcore Underground will never have. And there are bits and pieces of Happy Hardcore on there anyway.
UK Hardcore is getting called UK Happy Hardcore again anyways.
Still the same concept in just a more modern time.

Thanks for the list. I now know the ones you claim to be horrid are probably good and the ones you say are great are probably terrible:)

It's always fascinating how tastes differ even within a niche genre ;). Many of the tracks you like, I like too. But I also love some "bad" ones, even two of the "horrid" ones:
Jazakid - Dance Track
Getty & Noriken - Burnd out
The Grenzgaenger one is a really growing when just listened as single track. For one the original bpm fits the track more, on the other hand its 1995 gabber style sticks out in an odd way between all these more or less modern tracks.

Well it's personal opinion I'm expressing obviously. We don't always agree on what tickles our tummies.

*Review based on track selection, not dj skill*
Well, after grabbing the USB from Kevin Energy, so far, HU8 has been pretty underwhelming. Multiple 10/10 5 star tracks on the usb. I can't honestly say I found one 5 star or 10/10 track on saiyan or daniel seven's disk. You know. Tingles, goosebumbs, WOW, F**K me, etc.
Don't even try to pull the "nostalgia" card on my ass. Plenty of the tracks i rated highly on the USB I have never even heard. The vast majority of modern hardcore is just not up to par ( for me). No hate, just really different tastes i guess.
I would have liked to see some more kniteforce from saiyan, i'm buying 10/10 tracks from kniteforce all day. I also feel like Daniel seven's tracks were a bit more tame & less upbeat over all than I would expect.
I of course saved AOS for last, I know my boy do me solid ;) <3, will update after I go thru his.
