Releases this week - June 6th-12th 2011

OK, welcome to the 1st in a series of weekly roundups of all releases in Freeform this week. 1st up....

Commercial releases:
Hardbeats Download - www.hardbeatsdownload.com:

NEC - NUNRG096 - Endemic Remixed EP - http://www.hardbeatsdownload.com/products.php?product_id=15738
1st up is Douglas'remix of Hurricaine. Has that signature Douglas sound and an epic breakdown, which drops in an amazing random way. Following that one is Greg Peaks remix or H109, one of my fav Endemic tracks. Awesome acid riffs, and a real Euphoric feeling to it.

NEC - NUNRG097 - SynthWulf - Ragnarok/Rising to Paradise - http://www.hardbeatsdownload.com/products.php?product_id=15770
Every SynthWulf track I hear I like his style a little bit more. Teaming up with Finrg's RX on Ragnarok, awesome uplifting feel to the breakdown, then kicks the energy in when the beat kicks, before slamming you with that finrg sound. Rising to paradise featuring Zoe Van West is a more vocal outing, a bit of a UK hardcore sound to it, nice if you want to break up your Freeform sets with a bit of vocal stuff.

Executive - EXE027-A - Haze & Analog - Inside out - http://www.hardbeatsdownload.com/products.php?product_id=15760
The guys team up to cross Freeform and Dubstep. You can feel the Darkness from the very start, an eerie breakdown then into some filthy dubstep sounds. When the dub is done, its back to the darkness.

25 Electronica exposed Vinyls - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140509888197&ssPageName=STRK%3AMESELX%3AIT
For those that love vinyl, this looks like an awesome deal. 25 Freeform and hardcore 12"s and it's at 25 pound. If I had vinyl turntables I wouldn't be mentioning this as I would have already snapped it up .

Free Full length tracks:
Before I list the free tracks released this week, I want to give a shout out to http://hardcorehighlights.com/ for making this part of the thread a lot easier for me. For those that don't know, Hardcore Highlights lists HEAPS of tunes & mixes that are available for free download. There is also usually a youtube embed of the track so you can tell if you like it before downloading. If you haven't yet, it's definately worth checking out. OK, with that said, off we go:

Horzi - The Elergy - http://hardcorehighlights.com/2011/06/07/free-tracks-hybridize-digital-two-free-tracks-06-06-11/#more-1864
2 tracks here, the original and the Cyrex remix. The original has awesome energy and that distinctive Finrg sound. Awesome rock effects in it as well to get you rocking. The remix is a Hard dance version, still got the energy for those that like it slower.

Audio Warfare - 4Just1Day (2011 update) - http://hardcorehighlights.com/2011/06/05/free-track-audio-warfare-4just1day-2011-02-06-11/#more-1795
OK, this one came out a little earlier than this week, but I thought I'd mention it anyways. It's an update of the remix Audio Warfare made of a classic Kai Tracid Hard dance track a while back. Subtle changes to his original, but they work really well. Definately one to check out.

Vacuum Music - Free tracks - http://soundcloud.com/vacuum/sets/free-downloads-tracks-mixes/
Vacuum music has been nice enough to post up 4 tracks for free download. Si-On and Riff 1 are the Freeform tunes, and the other 2 are UK Hardcore. I love the mixdown in Riff 1, just keeps building up. Si-On is a more Trancey Freeform sound, with a nice uplifting vibe.

Mixes:

Olly Addictive - Frequency - http://soundcloud.com/olly-addictive/frequency
Really enjoyed this mix. Big kick Freeform, awesome track selection and tight mixing. Finishing off with a bit of Gabber for those that like it darker.

Lady Brock - 2011 Freeform Mix - http://hardcorehighlights.com/2011/06/07/dj-mix-lady-brock-2011-freeform-mix-01-06-11/
Tracklist is awesome, Lady Brock has just had her 1st release on Raw Elements, one to look out for.

NEC Podcast # 97 - Nick 235 - http://feeds2.feedburner.com/NuEnergyCollectivePodcasts
Nick 235 played an awesome show this week. Awesome mix of styles from Freeform to UK and some DNB thrown in for good measure. Was the 1st time I heard his and Solutions remix of Lost Soul - Sacrafice, and absolutely loved it! The link has all of the previous NEC podcasts on it too so if you dont already have them, get amongst it! Next week on the Podcast is Endemic, listen live on Thursday nights or download from Fridays.


Well that's all for this week. If anyone has any releases or knows of any that should get a shout out next week, either PM me through here or email freeformforum@happyhardcore.dj

Good shout on them Electronica Exposed vinyl!

Snapped up. Big time bargain. Will enjoy working my way through them.

Glad I could be of help man . I was hoping someone here would snap up that deal, as I said if I had vinyl decks instead of CDJs I would have bought it straight away too.

Also sorry I didn't do one this week, I only have 1 day off work and spent what little time I had free spamming, ummmm, I mean promoting this forum through PMs on SoundCloud (which takes ages doing them individually). Will do 2 weeks worth this week though.

Really cool to see all this music! I'll have to wait till I have some more money to start buying some of that stuff, so Im glad you put the free stuff up too, gives me even more to listen to till I got more dollars.
