Awhile ago when I was moving house I was robbed. I don?t believe they was after anything specific, just a chancer as they grabbed a few random boxes. One of them had a lot of hardcore CDs in them. With help from people here I was able to replace my bonkers albums and some others.
I?ve realised today that also my battle of the DJ?s albums are gone and also my absolute hardcore albums are gone too.
If anyone has them, is there any chance I could please get WAV rips or higher quality of the albums. I would be so grateful to you

yeah, with the amount I have to replace it adds up though, I dont even think they was aiming to rob my CD's, just take any brown box they could carry, I was gutted.

Sadly, I dont have Absolute Hardcore on CD (only the vinyls)
Also, how do you get any higher quality than WAV? :P

done some checking if you're looking to save on large file sizes and have metadata (track names/artwork etc) then FLAC would be a better option
from what i can tell the quality is the same as WAV
Not really, especially when it comes to regular audio CD. They are 1411kbps/16-bit/44.1kHz only.
And FLACs are mostly just compressed WAV files

There's lots of hardcore like this. Hardcore artists didn't seem to care about keeping track of their music.

sadly, quite a lot of the NuEnergy bundle and some of Al storms retro bundles have the same issues
