Sorry that wasn't ment rude - usually I'm not a fan of smilies but I'll put some  and everyone is happy!
The thing that Darwin said IS true, it was a huge conversation on his Facebook status ;) It was some months ago I think, or maybe even earlier, in summer.
Other than that I don't know which artists have come thru that have copied a sound, look at Petruccio for example, his sound is quite similar to other's and his productions sound perfectly produced but he hasn't made a breakthru yet - same with Auscore, and perhaps that is the reason?
If Gisbo made something a bit more different he could definitely come thru, I see he's really putting a lot of effort into this (and big ups to you for that..), that's one of the things most people forget... not many have suddenly popped out of nowhere and released an album for free, so yes this is indeed great and an amazing idea, I really appreciate Gisbo for that, but I just wanted to tell how he could make it even better - because the first impression he will give, will be what he will stay forever or at least for most of the time. See my point?
But yes excuse me once again - if you check what people are saying then I think it's gonna work anyway, so good luck and cheers

Looking forward to getting my hands on this.
Heard some excellent stuff from Gisbo before and goes to show that remixes of 'pop' songs don't have to be unimaginative shite!

Well well well....
Im not suprised by some of the comments made as seems to happen alot in Hardcore when smaller artists get ripped into for doin somethin they love. Why is Hardcore the only scene that has its ravers shit on NEW artists.
Seems like unless your name is darren styles then its no good or your copyin him!! It annoys me that this thread has been shat on when people dont fully understand what it involves to make an album.
No doubt gisbo u wont get many comments from people download it as most people download it as its free and dont comment on what they think.
Is a shame as it does sometimes make us small artist think "why should we bother"
Maybe some people need to lool past darren styles n the big boys n wonder what the future of hardcore is gona be if the small artist now jus think why should i bother?

It's true what Hoodzie says.... unfortunately.
It seems that a great many 'Hardcore fans' are similar to little girls that buy Pop music....they only like what they know and don't actually know what they like.

Mate, the world is a F*cking selfish place. Just carry on doing what you do, expect nothing and that way you won't be disappointed.

I was guilty of that a while ago, it wasn't out of selfishness but purely down to lack of time to listen. It wasn't until I got a PM from the Iono boys that I realised I was doing it. Thanks to them they opened my eyes and since then I've always tried to feedback no matter if it's big, small, good or bad.
I know from my own experience how much hard work goes into making albums like the one in this thread and Ravers Addition. I put a hell of a lot of time, effort & money into making my mixes the best I can put out and I get no reward for it at all. Sometimes I don't get feedback at all other times I get lots. Just depends who downloads it I guess. But I just keep plugging away at it because I do it for the love of the music and mixing.

That is the biggest problem. Time. We have a back-log of mixes and tracks to listen too but we do give feedback eventually....
There is another point. If I hear a track that, imo, is a pile of unimaginative crap I don't say so.
Maybe if we weren't producers we'd be free to slag them off without everyone else presuming that we're just trying to slate the 'opposition'. :/
