label wise i hope..
"It's just some compilations what don't deserve the recognition. The ones what the companies are just cashing in on, making really crappy compilations which we all forget about. Then end up in the Woolworths bargain buckets for £3.99-£5.99"
Like clubland LOL!...

I'm sure that someone will chip in to continue the series.
The legacy will probably continue until 20 and then they will call it a day.

I'm sure if the demand is high enough then there will be another Bonkers, Just look at the DSI HTID forum when someone posted that 16 was the last bonkers, that post went on for quite a few pages and a month or 2 later B17 was out.
I like the sound of Bonkers 18 Down Under, would be great to have a series compiled by a different country's DJ's, what would be even better would be a Universal Bonkers, like 4 CD's, one Euro disc, one UK, America and a Australia disc. <<< Pure fantasy of course, it'll never happen :(

America won't get a disc, because there aren't any American artists making happy hardcore. lol. Maybe I am clueless, but I've yet to run across any.

[I brought all of them and I enjoyed the old ones alot! The new ones are good and stand out well against some of the not so good CDs which like you said, might be forgotten about in a few years! Anyone still listen to Ibiza Summer 2000 style CDs?
Are you talkin about those mix albums by ministry of sound that had retardedly slow trance on there? I enjoyed the clubbers guide to trance done by ATB but after that the majority of the ministry of sound albums really went to s**t in my opinion. I previewed a judge jules remix and it was just horrible!!!!!
Well anywayz, back 2 topic. Bonkers will continue on no matter what. Someone who gives a damn about the history behind the series and it's continued involvement in the hardcore scene will pick it up, regardless of the series past style/popularity/commercialization . And it wouldn't surprise me if that only lasts a few years and then another company picks it up again. Bonkers will always be there as long as there r ppl out there that won't let the hardcore scene die out.

i like the idea of a bonkers worl whit 4 cd!!!!
here in canada you have frisky & hujib ,twisted freq and a few more new producer push some great music and in us you have ac slater , sunrize and the nice guy and again a few new producer. you have a possibility on the America cd a Canadian artist versus a us artist.
if this thing occurs its would be a beautiful chance for smaller artist to make known itself who would really not be a bad thing in oneself!! It is beautiful to dream !!!
chek this myspace for great music from quebec city www.myspace.com/djkalymero
and chek too the most big hardcore collective here in canada www.kanibalz.com
p.s anyone know how cost for make a bonkers album ( include distribution , ads cost of duplicate ect ))
thank and have a nice day !!!

I would've thought it'd probably cos a few thousand quid to produce the tracks, compile the album, pay the artists, record label fees (inc advertising, graphical artists, material costs of CD's, cases).
The list goes on, but then if its a flop then ur gonna be eating cold beans in a homeless shelter for a while...
