I've heard quite a few
happy hardcore releases this year, but not much that I really liked or
wanted to hear again. This one was different. Moonshine Records
has now sold over 175,000 units in North America alone out of the
Happy2bHardcore series. Now entering the year 2001; return Happy Hardcore DJ Anabolic Frolic
speeding down from dance music hotbed Toronto, Canada at 180 BPM.
Anabolic Frolic has championed the Happy Hardcore sound on this, his
fifth installment on Moonshine's Happy2bHardcore series.
Happy2bHardcore is
filled with truly great Happy Hardcore/Breakbeat/Techno Anthems as the
CD art states. Happy Hardcorers will recognize some of the
artists with tracks on this mix such as Scott Brown, Sy, and Anabolic
Frolic himself (two of his own). One of the elements that I think make
this mix stand out from the other happy hardcore releases of late is
that the vocals are addicting in a Techno/Trancy way. Plus,
Anabolic Frolic's style is a little rougher (and a little less
happy). Strong inputs from Trance, Breakbeat, and Techno has
made this album more desirable. Check out "Lost
Generation" by Artist Unknown with it Trancy Anthem inspiring
feel. Another gem is Anobolic's track with Cru L T "Feels So
Right" which has a strong hook that you'll find yourself humming
later.
