Is it just me or has Ravine really been slipping out of the scene lately? He's missed a lot of Aussie Hardcore shows D:
It's because of Ravine that I ever started listening to Hardcore... about two years ago my friend in the bay area started promoting parties and told me they played happy hardcore, so I went and youtubed it and this mix comes up
That was the first mix I'd ever heard. Then I find out he had a regular show at a place called happyhardcore.com, so I started listening to the radio here, buying hardcore music and trying to mix it with virtual DJ. Here I am, two years later, still a shitty DJ but I've got a radio show, I've played a few parties, finally have an HHC forum acount lol, but it feels like my biggest inspiration is slipping out of sight.
Whenever I tell people about Ravine I point out that he could make me listen to country and enjoy myself, which is probably true but I hope to god he doesn't try it >.>
Anyway, what's going on with Ravine, is he trying to slowly step out, focusing on school, or is he just doing too many live shows to worry about the aussie hardcore show? I mean, Cotts is great but Ravine is really my favorite, and he comes with all that nostalgia.

He's got a residency in a club which he is doing alot more now, as well as college/uni, not sure which one it is in kangaroo land ;-) lol.
But he deffinatly is not doing as many mixes, but that is understandable with him getting older, he needs money and he can't be concentrating on these things anymore. Atleast he does try and do a mix every now and again though, he hasn't left his fans completly blind, but he is indeed a legend! But i don't think he's going to slip out completly any time soon!

Yeah I caught him live, it was really kick ass.
I guess I'm glad hes got more important things going on though.. I think I saw something about him doing a US tour on his facebook though, hopefully I can catch at least one of those shows ^^

ravine has also introduce me on hardcore
i absolutely didn't know what it was before (yes hardcore is unknown in France)
and a day, i found one of his videos on youtube, by "accident"
and this day, i understood that hardcore will be my favorite music, and since this day, i'm listening only hardcore !
anyway, it was all the time a great pleasure to look his videos but i was really disapointed when i saw he did an electro mix, but i said "right, after all, he can change a bit", but he did another, and again, and again, now he's all the time with cdj, never vinyl :(
i really prefer his old videos, same for cotts but this is not the topic for complained lol
it's just to say that he's really disapointing me at the moment, he's seems to have changed, but not in good way
i'm not judging him, never, but that's my opinion, if you read that ravine, please come back like before !

The set times are all on the mainpage...
this live broadcast was not one that was on the mainpage, and strictly for internet radio show. they all were playing at an event in australia with a crowd of 400 i believe. and checked just to make sure, but there was no indication of this broadcast on the mainpage
