I'm trying to rebuild my digital hardcore collection after a hard drive got badly damaged, and getting back into collecting again after 15 years out.
I'm 90% sure I had this track I'm my collection, but for the life of me can't find it anywhere online now.
Can anyone point me in the right direction or am I mistaken and its never be available.
Thanks for any information

Yeah, unless you got it as a promo, then you most likely got it on Beats 24/7

Thank guys. I'm sure i had it and did get some tracks off beats 24/7 back in the day.
Just really weird that only a few people have it now. You would of thought slipmatt would have access to the files as it was his site.

heck, I'm probably one of the few who has some random DJ Fade track as well, since barely anyone knew about Festerheadz.

considering they closed down for legal ramifications, I can see why.

im just hoping someone else that has the Dougal Records audio shows up one day because the person who already has those is ignoring or not reading all my messages

We can only hope! Shame to not let the tracks be enjoyed by everyone.

Dougal & TKM - Master On The Fader - 6:31
Innovate - This Is Life (Original Mix) - 5:06
Innovate - This Is Life (Alternate Mix)
Innovate - Just Believe - 6:23

I'm pretty sure it would have been called the bend but cant say for sure, im just positive I had it in my collection.
2001 to 2006 I was buying as many digital tracks as i could find. Especially if the tracks were from a album I really enjoyed, Like bonkers. Highly likely some others from above was on said hard drive
Innovate- Invincible was definitely on it, was one of my partners favourite tracks. Could have been purchase elsewhere back in the day?
Stopped collecting when my kids arrived and life moved on. Back now 20 years later but just wish I made a back up of the hard drive!

was the hard drive damage a physical damage or logical damage (like partitions got deleted)? i can help recovering the latter one because it's free

Unfortunately water damaged! Had hard drives and other computer hardware stored in our garage inside plastic boxes. Didn't realise the garage roof had been leaking on top of them for god know how long. Just a box of rusty water by the time we found out. Gutted!
