The classic girl on front cover of Hardcore Adrenalin 3 is only at 27- while the lesser hardcore (only disc 3) of Helter Skelter (alongside Drum and Bass and Rave Breaks) is at 7-

The rave breaks thing is fairly new but surely cant be dragging the sales down on the Skelter Compilation- while although only in one style of hardcore, the Clubland album is doing well also-

Is hardcore dropping off?
Is rave breaks stronger than it was?
Or is the Drum and Bass disk doing it?
Are spinning logos less embarrasing than taking the bikini girl to the counter?

Whats the verdict?

I would say because the Skelter disk has more variety it will attract more people. People who don't like hardcore will buy it as well as the people who do.

The clubland CD will just sell by the shit load because the series has a large following of young fans who will buy it because it's Clubland and they know the name.

Hardcore Adrenalin series is shit to top it off so not many people who are well into hardcore will buy it.

Hardcore Andrenaline albums are all shocking.

Na, volume 2 was shocking, as well as the bootlegs CD's across the volumes. But the Stu Allan mix on HA3 was great, as was the Seduction mix.

Yes No2 was horrible but the one tune that was interesting in that album was Surrender by Al Storm.

Haven't got HA3 heard the samples there are some good tracks on that album such as Outerlimits.

Yeah, "Surrender" (Al Storm) was EASILY the best track on Hardcore Adrenaline 2. On the subject of volume 3, it really is good.
Some awesome tunes on the Stu Allan mix, including...
Darwin & Ali - Tonight
Visa - Holding On 4 U (Fracus Remix)
Visa - Don't Go Away (Al Storm Remix)
In Effect & Miss Special K - Outerlimits
Stu Allan & Storm Ft Vicky Fee - Paint Me In Sadness
JAKAZiD - Can't Hold Back (DJ Shimamura Remix)


Seduction's mix is also his best. Very energetic, and a nice balance between bouncy and vocal.

Don't know the exact number, but i was told it done pretty good. Contrary to most opinions, Bonkers 17 sold good amounts.

I've only heard good things about Bonkers 17, and that's from people who normally think they are shit, so i don't see how it could have sold badly. If it did then god knows how badly rubbish like Bonkers 15 sold.
