Review: It's time to dive into some delicious new breakbeat creations as Samurai Breaks land on Hardcore Energy for a very exciting four track selection, showcasing their breaksy brilliance. We kick off with the sounds of 'Putting In Werk', a smart roller, dripping in finesse and original breakbeat energy, followed by the more futuristic tripletted pulses of 'Rush'. Next, we move into the nostalgic realms of 'Bad Boy Beats', a super choppy, party ready rinse out, followed by 'Power Hour' as Private Caller gets involved on the perfect sign out track, laced with high energy drum manoeuvres and booming bass tones.

Review: The Hardcore Energy team have delivered a powerful drop with this one, welcoming the fiery sounds of LSN to the table with a crunchy collection of six breaks-driven bangers. We begin with the the jittering acidic whirlpool that is 'Sometimes I Take Acid', which sees both Sharpson & Wax White join the party for a party-starting epic, followed by 'Softscape' a sublow bubbler, ready to bust any soundsystem wide open. From here, the slower drum slides of 'Don't Hesitate' arrive for a more emotional switch, followed closely by 'Infinity Pool' another euphoric eruption that sees 9TRANE join the party for another silky switchup. Finally, two additional belters, with 'The Unknown' firstly leading the way for a much organic, drum-driven design, followed by 'Rush Hour', which utilises glistening pads and catchy vocal overlays for a fiery finale!

Review: It's time to get down and groovy with some original breakbeat mastery here as Origin8a & Prospa touch down with four exciting originals on the Hardcore Energy imprint, perfect for setting the dance alive. We begin with the nostalgic brilliance of the title track 'Friction', stuffed to the brim with nostalgic stabs and rolling vocal slices, followed by the groovy twists and turns of 'The Theme' which is sure to bring the house down. Next up, 'Turn Me Out' looms into play with some hard hitting original breakbeat flavour across euphoric keys and more vocal precision. Finally, the pace quickens significantly across the junglist plains of 'Blow Your Mind'.

Review: The Hardcore Energy crew have once again delivered us an absolute treat as they welcome the combined sounds of Subbreak, D-Region & Code for two tracks of futuristic flames. We begin our dive with 'Catch You Breath', a jittery swing through breathy chord progressions, throwback drum sprinkles and moogy bass melodies to match. The energy level is therefore through the roof when we move onto 'Sanction', a weighty follow up indeed. This one features violent LFO sweeps and droning synthesiser punches, topped with eerie vocal layers to give us a truly sumptuous B-side, rounding off another top quality two tracker from the Hardcore Energy team.

Review: Since breaking out into the UKG scene, we have watched Smokey Bubblin' B develop into a real fan favourite, however, this latest drop sees him spread his wings a little further, exploring a vicious collection of hardcore jungle originals, perfectly in time for festival season. We open up with 'Summer Of Luv', a thumping throwback laced with nostalgic piano chords and choppy jungle breaks, laced together with looping vocal slices for even more old school flavour. This is then chased up by the more digital chord structures of 'Gone Fantazia', another super choppy thrill ride, this time topped with shimmering organs for good measure. We then slide into the super scattered drum textures of 'Nova', one final throw of the dice to round off the EP in style!

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!

Review: Next up from Hardcore Energy we welcome back the wonderful sounds of Acen, who returns to pay homage to 'Play 2092', a hard hitting creation that has here been re-purposed with three shimmering remix creations. The first comes to us from Danny Styles, who reworks the track into a maze of junglist drums and sizzling sublines, before we jump into the super emotive harmonic structures of the Liquid remix. Finally, Alk-e-d & Beeno give the original a major chop-heavy overhaul, slicing up the drums to create something truly magnificent.

Review: No mucking about Hardcore Energy. No nonsense breaks, hardcore and jungle. MKII in full effect! With basslines resonating here as much as pianos, tracks in this M1 EP are shrouded in hall reverbs and supreme compression to bring you the best in hardcore bliss. "Energy '92" kicks things off straight up with classic amen breaks that eventually succumb to breathy atmospheres and mellow chords, with stripped back jungle receiving the same treatment in "Make Me Feel" - while it's breaks and '90s free rave in "The Power", to trance and hip-house in "One".

Review: It's always good to see new music from the nostalgia inducing sounds of Hardcore Energy, who this time invite the wonderful MKII inside for a dazzling display of original breakbeat flavour. We open up with the pure euphoria of 'This Is', a piano-lead piece of sonic mastery, taking rave-ready vocal lines and grin-inducing key melodies to bring the house down in any dance. The other original takes the title 'Can't You See' and takes a slightly more stripped back approach, but is again pushed forward by a fantastic rave piano lead, evoking memories of many of a dancefloor in all of us. Both of these originals have been given a tasty remix, with Samurai Breaks firstly upping the tempo on 'This Is' for a gorgeous twist up, followed by Agora's heavyweight, jungle-inspired acidic journey through 'Can't See You'. This is a wicked collection to say the very least!

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.

Review: The Hardcore Energy team have assembled a very cool collection of dancefloor ready weapons here as they invite the sounds of Borai inside for a heavily sampled display of breaks-inspired marvelousness. We open up with the old school vocal repetitions and chunky breakbeat drum lines of 'Lets Jet Out', which through a subtle, reesey bass pulsation below, really gets the party started. From here, the dizzying shaker lines and moogy pulses of 'Get On Down' give us a more airy arrangement, giving us a nice sense of contrast, before 'Call Me' sends us straight back to the underground with an unorthodox showcasing of old school synthesizer bleeps, soulful vocal drives and sharpened breakbeat drums for good measure. Lovely work!

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.

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!

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!
