Naked In The Rain
The Raven (original mix) - (5:00) 128 BPM
Review: What we're gonna do right here is go back. Electrohouse, bass music and glitch veteran Herve has clearly been in something of a nostalgic mood, as here he brings us a cover of Blue Pearl's 1990 rave classic that's remarkably faithful to the original, simply adding a little extra 303 squelch at the bottom end. And the retro vibes don't end there: the EP's other two cuts are similarly likely to induce misty-eyed reminiscence in ravers of a certain age, replete as they are with Belgian techno stabs, buzz basslines, chopped-up diva vox and timestretched breakbeats. Top one matey!

Jai Dee - "Dancin" - (6:22) 128 BPM
Zone 2 - "Keep It Going" - (5:53) 126 BPM Hot
Review: Next up from the ever-ready Hardcore Energy crew we have a momentous collection to explore, pulling together a high energy selection from some of the most forward thinking breaks producers out there right now. We begin with the euphoria-inducing chord progressions of 'Feeling Inside', upping the energy from the jump, before GHSTGHSTGHST turns up the heat further for a fiery sweep through bulbous drums and more of those throwback chord-lines. From here a much more stripped back groove as Jai Dee delivers a moogy 4x4 bubbler in 'Dancin', followed by both the high energy half-time rhythmic smashes of 'Security' from T-Cuts and unorthodox chops of 'One thicc DJ Tool' from Mincy. Finally, Annod Bloque gives us a final dash of finesse with 'Your Love', an acidic joyride through nostalgic rave energy, topped off with jittering vocal overlays and a glorious sense of harmony throughout. Excellent work!

Promised Land EP
Eddie Craig - "Level" - (3:42) 125 BPM
Review: Once again the Hardcore Energy team have delivered a certified spicebox here as the wonderful Eddie Craig returns for a vibrant two-track display. We open up with the euphoria-inducing vocal displays from Rion S and system-rattling basslines of 'Promised Land', linking together nostalgic breakbeat expressions, rave-ready chord progressions and a vibrant bassline to match. Eddie then switches the pace up dramatically as the more moog-driven synthesizer drives of 'Level' are unleashed to give us a more stripped back but just as hard-hitting b-side, doused in hardcore chord melodies and sharp drum processing.

VIP EP
Laff Trak (VIP mix) - (4:38) 125 BPM
No Water (feat Cirrus - original mix) - (5:19) 129 BPM
Review: What a combo we have here as Doctor Jeep makes his appearance on Hardcore Energy with four dizzying creations, exploring the most creative rhythmic arrangements. First up, some slapping breaksy magic on the VIP mix of 'Vault Of Glass', a sumptuous combination of metallic bass design and crunchy drum work, followed by the 'Hardcore Mix' of 'Dissociate', a certified dive into the history of breakbeat with some gorgeous percussive processing at the forefront. From here, the VIP of 'Laff Trak' is unleashed, once again doused in gorgeous junglist energy and smooth bassline action, before Cirrus joins us for a wavy finale in 'No Water', a reese-driven warble through swampy atmospherics to close off this EP with some serious heat!

Day Of Night EP
Day Of Night - (4:34) 129 BPM
Review: The Hardcore Energy team have a proven track record when it comes to exploring full length EP projects, dipping and diving into a wonderfully laced combination of nostalgia and new school energy. This latest four track experience from Andrew Whitwell is a prime example of their quality control being as strong as ever, opening up with the bulbous breaksy goodness of 'Almond Break', which through eerie pad strings and powerful basslines, kicks us off with a bang. We up the pace next with 'Love Fantasy', which unleashes a lethal barrage of junglist drum launches, next to the dizzying synthetic interludes of 'Instruments Of Siren', giving us a brain sizzling display of delightful hardcore arrangement. Finally, 'Day Of Night' dips into a more acidic field of play, focussing on pulsing drum crunches and slower paced designs, to give us one last unexpected twist before closing out the EP. Excellent stuff!

Salt, Fat, Acid Heater EP
Salt - (5:01) 125 BPM
Review: Next up from Ac1d Vicious, a playful three track collection, exploring the more acidic side of breakbeat culture, delivering a set of unique, yet potent originals. We begin with the constantly alternating backdrops and blippy textures of 'Salt', a truly unpredictable piece of magic, dipped in acid-house synths, industrial sounding glitches and nostalgic pad textures for good measure. From here, 'Fat' drives down a much more hardcore influenced avenue, with booming synthesizer sizzles leading the way atop a computerized backdrop. Finally, 'Acid Heater' takes us back to the raves of the early 90's, with throwback chord melodies playing a lead role, sitting gracefully above high intensity breaks and a seriously glitchy set of everything else you could wish for. Beautiful work!

Review: What a monsterous collection of creations we have here as we explore the full range of breakbeat influences, from slower, more clunky original creations, to garage inspired rollers and everything in-between. The sheer mass of this collection is one of it's immediate charms as we are gifted over 50 originals and remixes, each one bringing something unique to the table from a supporting cast including the likes of Origin8a & Propa, Benton, MKII, Deekline, Samurai Breaks and more. The constant changes of direction and expansionary sense of sonic inclusion are both big yesses from us, with our favourites including 9Trane's nostalgic bubbler 'Thuggish', next to the housey piano drives of Herve's 'Live Together' and the old school garage flavour of Matt Jam Lamont, Echelon & Tuff Culture, who join focus for 'Massive & Crew'. Tidy work indeed!

LSN - "Communicate" (feat Ruby - original mix) - (5:14) 125 BPM
9Trane - "Ravers NRG" (original mix) - (5:32) 129 BPM
Review: The first volume of Hardcore Energy Introducing is considered an essential selection of rave material by a new generation of producers, packed full of nostalgia that will transport you back to the halcyon days of the Free Party scene: think pirate radio, warehouse raves and dancing in the fields. It opens up with the proto-jungle roller by Tribe Steppaz & 6Blocc "Down With The Underground", then comes a throwback to the loved-up euphoria of the early '90s on 9Trane's "Thuggish", while Farayen takes us back to the second summer of love beneath the M25 on "Can't Take It" and Sharpson is the real star on here with two tracks - his finest being "I Think I Know This One" which harks back to the R&S glory days.

History In The Making EP
History In The Making (Fantazia mix) - (4:32) 127 BPM
Review: We were thrilled to see Private Caller back at it once again as the return is made to Hardcore Energy, delivering a very exciting four track project in the process. The 2020 Lockdown mix of 'Helter Skelter' is why we find ourselves kicking off, as nostalgic rave chords and sweeping junglist basslines are let loose to run wild before the spacy pads and crunchy breakbeat murmurs of 'Backwards' arrive shortly after. Next up, the bouncy synthesizer melodies and shuffling drum lines of 'Bring That Back' give us another throwback punch, before rounding the project off on the incredibly acidic Fantazia mix of 'History In The Making', another rave-ready piece of breakbeat brilliance.
