Ok had a run through it now and i pretty much think this is Hardcore heaven 6 ( for the first disk and 50% kinda pop music ) not as attractive a title i know but it's bloody sad state of affairs when HARDCORE underground submits to the 160 Bpm crowd. We are truely f**ked.
I'll be over there listening to Re-style and korsakoff not because i'm going off Uk hardcore but because no one makes it anymore.

So, since HU does have problems to ship stuff to Chile for a long time. Anyone wants to help me to cover this album?
PS: the tracklist for Disc 1 seems to be madness, Disc 2 mid upfront, mid known. Anyone did take care that Hit 'Em Like This is appeared once again.

Just bought it and the Chwhynny artist album. Just going through the HH6 CD2, looks like there are quite a few older / already released tracks. Shame as I was hoping for new music

Looks like one of the files is corrupt as i can't open or rename it. And the Chwhynny deluxe download appears to be missing a track!

both discs are 160?
I think it's pretty clear the 160 route is clearly not the way forward. Really, really disappointing.
As Vladel stated, I definitely would have went / featured some re style / faster like music, which is far more fitting and more likely to entice a larger crowd. I don't get why once again , the appeal is geared toward an unpopular and rather dull side genre.

Having listened to the Disc 1 previews up on Soundcloud, I won't be rushing out to buy this (although I will do eventually just to add to the collection of HU albums). 20% of the disc is remixes of old tracks and I personally don't think any of the remixes improve on the originals.
On a side note, I am willing to bet my left testicle that Maxi Malone uses Fracus to, at the very least, engineer his tracks.

Listened the previews (some) but I can say that
Disc 1: Sick stuff, updates or VIP from the last decade. Fresh collaborations and more Fracus & Darwin as stand alone. Miss it.
Disc 2: 160 BPM BANGERS, I only hope that could be mixed at 165 or 170 due "Chasing The Sun" anthem.

The first disk is 170bpm and disk 2 is around 60% 160 Bpm

Purchased and listened to a few times over the weekend. It's the same story as with a few previous HH's - Fracus & Darwin disc has a selection of outstanding original tracks mixed in with some tired remixes we keep hearing over and over again. And of course, disc 2 is just underwhelming as has been the trend for a while now. I will say this though; because I'm not sure that many people actually realise it, but each previous version of Hardcore Heaven (including this one) has featured a different artist on CD 2 each time and that's perfect because I don't think they've found that standout artist yet who should prominently feature alongside F&D. Can we have Jakazid next? Despite my criticisms I do still believe it's the best Hardcore compilation out there today. Overall, an above average entry in the Hardcore Heaven series.

I downloaded the Chwhynny album yesterday and the deluxe component is missing two tracks: I Am and Still I Am.
