There's a CD series going around now that's pulling in a few UK Hardcore tracks called Technobase.FM. Volumes 19 - 24 have some UK Hardcore towards the end of the mixes, other than that, it's mostly 'Hands Up'/Hard Trance.

I personally really enjoy this series and I own every album released up to this point. But my enjoyment mostly comes down to me also liking the Hands Up sound as well. I wouldn't recommend the Cds if you're only interested in th UK Hardcore tracks on there. They tend to be on only at the very end of one of the three mixes and the track selection also usually is limited to the "biggest hits". Expect to see mostly get tracks by Tweekacore, Darren Styles, Technikore and S3RL.
I find the trend of including UK Hardcore tracks on German compilation albums intersting though. The style really seems to get a lot more popular again, as even (one of) the most popular EDM compilations in Germany (previously focused on mostly house music) now usually includes UK Hardcore tunes.
But coming back to the TechnoBase.FM series, if you like the current sound of Hands Up or want to give a try, this series is by far the best choise. It features tracks of both established but also upcoming and unknown producers. The current Hands Up sound is the direction I've always wished UK Hardcore would take. Here are some examples:

Even the D.Trance series is starting to put a few UK / Happy Hardcore tracks on their CDs. The last D.Trance release got a track by Alaguan.

Why they should stop? It's a nice series, and I'm so happy they're keeping on it! Unlike Future Trance, they didn't switch into mainstream stuff.

Preview for Vol.26. The sample is hands-up tracks BUT it shows a cover of the album, and the cover has Happy Hardcore in the tagline, so there'll be some towards the end of at least one of the mixes. :)
