grrr someone beat me to the first vote ... although if it's silver then i s'pose he's got an unfair advantage :P

Yeah it was a cd called Central Nervous System II, mixed by DJ Vagas, with tracks like Six Days, Luv U More, and Take Me Away. I lost it years ago, but my now-ex-gf bought me a copy for my last b-day YAY!!!!

twas my bro, he went into his room, playing hardcore at full volume with his mates. i loved it as soon as i heard it, recorded some tapes and went to school listening to it, and nothing but it. he started listening to more old skool, which at the time i couldnt stomach, i started to like it after a bit, then was dnb, same story as old skool just a little later on.
i listend to hardcore for ages, he got a pair of decks, which i mucked around on, and when he went to uni i got a pair myself, a fiew months after i went to my first rave, flashback, was so impressed so quickly went to slammin vinyl and so the true raver in me was born.

i stick to the hardcore, as it is hardcore which is my faveorite music, i dabble in old skool and dnb very ocasionally, my brother mixes old skool, so when we get together for a mix we play different things which is great.

i recon my bro and me think alike, we had the idea for a night at around the same time, he has one up and running, but i didnt feel ready to do one myself, this has changed, and now i am working very hard on putting on a night in Birmingham, then all will be left is getting my finger into producing, all this at a age of 18, well your never too young

It was in my s**t clubbin days, i went to a really cheesy commercial dance club in B'ham wen i was 16. We went bak to a mate ov a mates house n this lad lent me a United Dance - Force n Styles tape.
I had a house party the following week n blasted it out the, made sure the whole street cud hear it aswell.......didn't wana b selfish!
It was about a month lata wen i really got in2 it. I was goin to hardhouse clubs and i had an after party at mine, i dug out the tape n played it (agin) atfull pelt wiv the patio door open n spent an hour dancin outside in the rain to "love of my life". It had special meanin cus it was mine and my tehn g/f's fave tune..............owh, the good old days. Just glad we're still best mates!

Around '96...a friend who worked at a local record store gave me a flyer for a party he was spinning at...I was well into techno but had never really heard any HHC...I showed up and he was playing a lot of Rotterdam stuff...and when he dropped "Rainbow In The Sky"...that was it ...I was hooked!!!!

after being into hardcore almost from the start, about three or four years ago I foolishly decided to sell my beloved decks to buy a car I needed for work and lost touch with the whole hardcore scene

i got back into hardcore earlier this year, i looked on the net to find out what was happening and found a sh#t load of amazin tunage........ forked out for some new decks and here i am!

since i've still to convert my mates, i have a lot to thank sites like this for
keep up the good work silver its well appreciated mate

I was always into like poppy dance shit hehe then I met a group of people who listened to only HH I loved it straight away, the cd that they played the most was slammin vinyl this was about 2 and a half years ago and i've loved it so much ever since. I just got ahold of that very album about 2 days ago and i cried so much when i listened to it!-happy crying not sad crying-coz it brought back so many memories. it really is my favirote music in the whole world and i cant imagine life without it. I've introduced anyone i can to it and i'll never stop loving it.
HARDCORE TILL I DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hey toxic isn't it funny that the guys who you heard playing hardcore that first time wouldn't piss on a HHC record now if it were on fire?
