I think I'm coming to the conclusion that I will never buy from Hardcore Underground again. I know from experience that they have delays in getting albums out, but this is like empty promises. Each time we are promised bundles to be available during any given week it doesn't happen. I have so little faith in them right now.

Well, if it wasn't for all the backstabbery Jay seems to endure, I would have been of the same mind. But Im cutting him some slack.
... at least to after he's managed to get Vinylgroover, Raver Baby & Essential Platnum backcat out

I think if you just approach it with a 'it'll happen eventually' type mindset then it's far easier to deal with. You know that as an individual you're not really going to make things happen any quicker, I doubt anyone really wants it to take longer than it has to and I know it'd suck if it was me on the receiving end...

I?m not concerned to be honest, they will be here when they are here. No point getting upset about it.

Those two Darwin remixes of Toytown is enough for me to make the completitionist worth it! Also really always wanted the Bonkers 17 version of Bonkers Anthem - it's a track that grew on me. Finally have it!

It's nice to have the 1st bundle but the mastering on some tracks is rather questionable to my ears.
One track that sticks out is Bonkers Anthem - it is far too loud and is clipping terribly, thought it was my laptop speakers initialy but running it through my proper soundcard and old Sony MDR-V700's it was even worse.
I'm all for having loud tracks but also think the trend of making them as loud as possible is detrimental to the track.
Just my thoughts and woulden't mind hearing what others think? I know I am old and 3 decades of abuse on my ears may have taken it's toll! ;)

You're not alone with complaints about mastering but we're getting the best that they have, you have to consider that some of these are sourced from DATs mastered for vinyl.

Wait, does that mean DAT's mastered for vinyls actually clip this much? Is it because I dont understand how pressing works, or is that all just a load of bollox to excuse the overmastering?
