Seriously, kinda sucks knowing if my hard drive fails or my sd card gets corrupted that I can't redownload all of my tracks.
Anyone know if CDJay is bringing the site back at all? I know Fracus isn't involved anymore but surely it isn't much to bring it back.

I dont think he owns the domain name anymore, so if he ever restarts it, he might have to get a new domain-url. And it probably costs a pretty penny getting a new webhost for all the content they had.
And this is one of the reasons I hate the lack of offline backups on Computers nowadays. Buying a external harddrive or external harddrive dock is probably the best, as HDD tend to last fairly long (as long as you power it up once every year or so), with DVD being a second close, but many people just buys laptops these days, and it those doesnt always come with a disc-drive

There has still been no word to no one. I have tried all I can at this point. If he does come back in any capacity I will have some words for him.
At this point if you are missing stuff you brought I think it's ok to ask for it. I have certenly helped people out recently who lost stuff and couldn't redownload.

Save the tracks on multiple drives. On a desktop/laptop hard drive and also on an external hard drive. If one fails, the other will still work. Only way you'll lose your tracks at that point is if you lose everything in a house fire...

Whatever is going on, it doesn't seem in character. I hope whatever is happening with CDJay, he's ok and healthy.

Didn't realize the website was down, but i did receive an email from them last year (maybe more than a year ago about hu9) was wondering why i hadn't heard anything since...

I thought Hardcore Underground had stopped ages ago when Fracus & Darwin started their own labels (Music Blocks & Brutal Kuts). Then they stopped doing the HU podcast and started their own Music Kuts podcast.
They were the last label still releasing Hardcore CD albums. So it really seems to finally be the end of the DJ mix era on CDs now.
Bonkers, Hardcore Heaven, Hardcore Underground, Hardcore Nation, United Dance, Clubland Xtreme Hardcore, Wow What A Rush, Absolute Hardcore, etc all defunct CD series.

To fully confirm yes HU is dead.
I was so post to be part of it but CDJay ghosted me from around June last year.
Meanwhile I continued to work on catalogues.As I didn't know anything and no one would give me any solid answers.
Al Storm has the remaining HU CD stock. So if you want any of the old CDs 24/7 hard store is the place to go. Apart from Upfront & Vocal Again. Which Al has a box of however Dy5oN also has stock on and will be doing bundles with his new album. Which will be available on his Bandcamp soon.
New Warped Science bundle coming soon. Just waiting for a few masters then it'll be ready. It's much better than the original.
As for what happened here's what I know.
HU9 was pretty much done mix wise. However they were having issues with World Of Obsession which is part of Tidy.
Then some Royal Mail stuff happened then it all went quiet. There are people who know more but won't say.
I considered CDJay a friend and so is very disappointing that he just left me in the dark to continue working on stuff. If he knew it was ending a message saying it's over and don't carry on would of been nice. I spent hundreds of hours on Warped Science. And spent money to get it done.
TLDR
It's dead give up hope. Go buy from Dy5oN & Al Storm if you want mixes on CD. Dy5oN's new album will be a mixed CD.
I personally have stepped away from hardcore mostly. The Force & Styles box set is the very last hardcore thing I'm buying. I still enjoy mixing it however I no longer like the majority of newer music. I get much more joy out of playing the classics. Force & Styles is really the final hole in my collection to fill.
I have a little side project on the go however it's 90s happy hardcore stuff and there is no pressure if nothing comes of it.

You've been around for a while, I would've expected you to have been on a HU project before?

To be honest i had never tried before as i was never overly happy with tracks i had at the time to submit for the albums...but this time i sent one to AOS and he said he would have it for his mix..then it all fell through!

So that Warped Science bundle will be different/remastered compared to the one sold through 24/7 before?

Presumably that means it'll never see the light of day...? Even just the mixes leaked digitally with some artwork? lol :D
Anyway, for your own part, MusicILove, I do feel bad. I know you've done a crazy amount of work over the years for different labels and different projects with (seemingly?) little to no official recognition (although maybe I just missed it
