Hey all,

Looking to try and find some more freeform records and have discovered that I really don't know too much about this side of hardcore, so I was wondering if anyone could give some recommendations :) (bonus if it's on vinyl)

few examples of what I've heard / liked:

K Complex - Adagio
Arkitech & Double Decka - Life Is A Construct
Mr-B vs K Complex - World Is Strange

Most stuff on Nu Energy between 2003 and 2007 should fit the bill, at least on the K-Complex tracks

https://www.discogs.com/label/4122-Nu-Energy?sort=year&sort_order=asc&page=2

Listening to Sharkey's mixes on Bonkers from around the same time periods would be a great start to see more names that might not pop up on NuEnergy (from Bonkers 9 and up)

No harm in them checking out what freeform sounds like now 😉. If the opening poster does like the freeform recommend jumping on this while there is still copies.

Late 99 to 2002 in my opinion was the best era for freeform
Check out Kevin energy take me up. Original and sharkey and energy remix.
Kev energy ravers revenge/ twisted sanity.
Kev energy in deep trouble.
Johnny go mental. Violet skies/ sunset over Venice
Sharkey & Eclipse lo-tek

There are too many to list, but here are a few. I'm a big fan of the usual Nu Energy classics, among others.

Chris C & Kevin Energy - Forward To The Past (Kevin Energy's Freeform Edit)
K Complex - Outta Control
Dair & Devastate - Music Power
Justrich & Phosphor - Ain't No Stoppin' This
