I would've rather see the return of 97-00 styled "oldskool", but that's just me I guess

Hey everyone, apologies for the silence!
Too many people have been asking me for new music, so I've been busy in the studio working on a secret oldskool project. I'm very pleased to announce that ALL tracks will be out on vinyl, thanks to the relaunch of the classic oldskool label Return Of The Vibe! The new name I'm going under for oldskool is Zensation, and you can find me on Instagram here:
There is also a pre-historic photo and recording of me playing a live PA in Bournemouth before I became Vagabond...
The first 2 tunes will be out on pre-order 31st October 2019 (link at bottom of interview), so just 2 days away. Expect pianos, breakbeats, stabs and everything else the rave scene in the early to mid nineties was all about...plenty more to come!
Just to say it's been amazing working on some new music and catching up with some of the old crew. Oldskool really is back! If anyone can make it, I'll be doing a PA at Destiny in Bournemouth on December 14th with all the new tunes.

The Era that was the demise of hardcore ? I'd rather see those years buryed
Good to see Vagabond back, but when you say Old School Sam , you talking about the true old school years ? Or the early old school "hardcore" years aka the breakbeat years.
Yet those years gave Hardcore [Techno] a bigger foothold outside the UK?
I'm just saying, Sam T. can produce what he wants, but I just find the "bring back the oldskool" vibe completely false because it's not like no one stopped producing it, compared to the "black sheep" Happy Hardcore, which if we exclude Eufion latest track and the HHU albums, have barely seen any kind of release since DJ Shimamura churned them out in the mid 00's. Like, the only guys that made the stuff was Jakazid and a few indie labels on IMOdownload. Oldskool has had Kniteforce release stuff every year, and the essence (from what I've understood) still lives on in the d'n'b scene.

If you ask kids today, 2001-2005 is the real oldskool ;)
Anyways, I've tried to listen to oldskool (the pre-1995 stuff) or similar music since 2002. I still don't like it, with the exception of a few tracks

I'd like some Vagabond/Euphoria tracks and I sure hope I'm not the only one, those hi-octane tracks from the Next Gen label were the best thing about mid-00s hardcore
