I never got around to buying this whole collection back when it was out digitally and unmixed, only buying one or two tracks in MP3. But I've manage to get a pair of tracks in FLAC afterwards, but think it's time for the whole collection.

This is a good idea, a community effort everyone can gain from.

But your request is MIXED or UNMIXED tracks?
I'm asking because Discogs url of your request is on MOSCD180 (3 Mixed CDs only)

The digital copy was unmixed only to my knowledge, or came with both. It never got its own Discogs entry. But my request is for unmixed only, so I wont consider it filled with the mixes from the CDs

Posting for Clarity.

The Link used is only for reference. This album was originally released on CDs with no unmixed content. But it was uploaded to a few digital webstores with full, unmixed tracks (and maybe the mixes as well, I don't know because I ain't gonna buy for mixes).

This request is only for the unmixed full tracks from the digital stores. AS STATED IN THE TITLE.

I have UNMIXED 60 tracks in 320 only (WEB DIGITAL 2008)...

I already have what I personally want in MP3, so I would rather want FLACs :P

can you uploaded the umixed 320 please

The Catalog Number for the Unmixed is: MOSE180
The are a scene release with the unmixed tracks, but only in MP3
VA-Hardcore-The_Classics_(1994-2009)-WEB-2008-CHC

only way your getting this in lossless is making it yourself

#Iancbailey

Now we have only real 3 CDs (url of discogs is in topic) with mixed and croped versions inside (because mixing). But original WEB Release from www.trackitdown.net (now site is down) had Full Original Versions also (60 full original tracks + 3 mixes)! And maybe in lossless also...
On today released only mp3 versions (320) by CHC group.

I already have Turn Up the Music in WAV format, and that was from this compilation, so yea, they do exist. And considering how some pirates are hoarders, there's a likely chance that someone might have it.

can you upload Scott Brown - Turn Up The Music please

Is this a dig at me saying something similar on a different request? :)

i've just made this up if someone can upload the mp3 version i can compare against the lossless one i made

update

managed to get most of the tracks except the ones below, the first 3 i know i have vinyl rips of not sure they was release digital unless of course on this compilation

Visa - Fly Away (Hixxy Remix)
Styles & Breeze - Electric (Original Mix)
Styles & Breeze - Slide Away (Sy & Unknown Remix)

Sash! Ft Stunt - Raindrops (Encore Une Fois) (Jon Doe & Billy Daniel Bunter Remix) (Dougal & Gammer Relash)
Sy & Unknown Ft Lou Lou - Don't Leave Me Now (Darren Styles Remix)
Basshunter Ft DJ Mental Theo's Bazzheadz - Now You're Gone (Sy & Unknown Remix)
Scott Brown - Neckbreaker (Original Mix)
Scott Brown - Turn Up The Music (Original Mix)
DJ Frantic - Braveheart (Original Mix)

i still need to compare against the mp3 unmixed version yet

That's quite a feat.
Neckbreaker and Braveheart exists as lossless as well.
I will upload Turn up the music and Braveheart as soon as we get the rest (these 2 will be exempt from the fill requirement as I will upload them myself). As for Neckbreaker, I do have it in lossless, but as it's still being actively sold, I will not share it myself.

spek for braveheart: https://krakenfiles.com/view/YfO6T2Kcms/file.html
spek for turn up the music (which is originally from this album): https://krakenfiles.com/view/IwZGlX5IpK/file.html

i bought it on toolbox, but ithink it should be on beatport and junodownload as well

which album is this on? Scott Brown - Turn Up The Music

The one I literally requested!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's the one I said I managed to get in lossless/FLAC. I didn't talk about finding a random download and just say "its from this album", I mean to say that it was literally from this album.

so after checking against the mp3 version it turns out the ones needed are the ones below

Dr Who - Love Of My Life (Original Mix) (LOSSY) 6.14
Q-Tex - Power Of Love (2001 Mix) (LOSSY) 4.04
Sy & Unknown - Bring Me Round To Love (Scott Brown's Evolution Remix) (LOSSY) 6.03
Brisk & Ham - Angel Eyes (Original Mix) (LOSSY) 7.24
Brisk & Ham - Crazy Love (Original Mix) (LOSSY) 7.41
Asa & S1 Ft Lou Lou - Makin' Me Wanna Dance (Sy & Unknown Remix) (LOSSY From Beatport) 6.50
Styles & Breeze - Electric (Original Mix) 5.33
Styles & Breeze - Slide Away (Sy & Unknown Remix) 5.53
Breeze & Styles - Future Set (Alternate Intro Mix) 6.33
Hopscotch - Steam Train 5.54
Hixxy & Sharkey - Toy Town 6.14
SMD - SMD#1 (Slipmatts '96 Remix) 5.53
Sash! - Raindrops (Dougal & Gammer Relash) 5.58
Basshunter - Now You're Gone (Sy & Unknown Remix) 4.35
Scott Brown - Turn Up The Music (Original Mix) 5.53
DJ Paul Elstak - Rainbow In The Sky (K&A's Extended Blast Edit) 4.34
Billy Daniel Bunter & DZyne Ft Gem - Ride Like The Wind (Original Mix) 5.05

if you think you have any of the above with the correct timing and lossless please compare with the mp3s on this download link https://krakenfiles.com/view/ldBsTwWzVU/file.html

bollox, and here I mostly made this request for Electric :(

Power of Love 2001 exist as lossless. But where did you get the 4:04 length from? digital and vinyl version is ~5:40.

Angel Eyes and Crazy Love might exist as lossless over at Toolbox.

The timestamp from that mix is for mixed content, so 4:04 means it's not full, or more than third of the song has been edited away.
Actually, we're both wrong. It's not the 2001 mix at all (I thought it was odd for slipmatt to play a track from after 2000 in a set with basically only tracks from 95 to 99), but an edited version of 98.

The Pretty Green Eyes on HTID1 is only 5:23, so your copy is definitely more likely to the full version.

Power Of Love 98 sounds nothing like Power Of Love (2001 Mix)

sounds same but start different Q-Tex - Power Of Love (Jon Campbell Remix) (Version 1)

the unmixed mp3 is what i am trying to copy here? same timings but in lossless, if your trying to get them all in full length and not copying the unmixed mp3 it's easier to do, cause i have the full tracks, obviously the unmixed mp3 where edited down on some of the tracks

Did you even listen to Slipmatts mix from this album?
it's the 98 version, but modifed.

https://youtu.be/GbeoLtzU-kc?si=rTi7KXBwsp2ji-g6&t=893 From Slipmatt & BDB's mix
https://youtu.be/FebCNy_SLzE?si=2H3Wr0nm8iqO41cF&t=214 From unmixed '98 (digital)
https://youtu.be/pzBhN6pqhE8?si=R1aERm_kabkXBeKX&t=264 Similar section from the 2001
Notice how the 2 first once are heavy on the piano, while the third isnt?

NOTE!
Do not get confused with the '98 mix that appears on Slammin Vinyl's Absolute Hardcore. That's a Scott Browns own rework to make it sound like Digital Boy Italian Rave remix, which is originally from 1995, but also appears on the Power of Love '97 single, but first got big after Hixxy played it on the early Bonkers albums.

NOTE!!
Considering I've seen it happened on other albums (mostly on trance compilation with mixed and unmixed tracks), is it know if the unmixed version supplied are 100% the same as the ones used in the physical albums?
Because I'm seeing different options here:
A) The mixes and the unmixed all have the exact same tracks, and the scene release reflects that (can't confirm since I haven't downloaded the CHC one yet)
B) The mixes and the unmixed all have the exact same tracks, but the scene release is cobbled together from various sources, making it a fake release.
C) The mixes and the unmixed do not share the same track versions. (which I've seen happen on Gary.D's D-Trance Vol.10 to make an easy example I remember)

no i was going of the unmixed mp3 pretty sure thats what was released in stores was it not hence why i was trying to do that one, but i'll go off the actual cd tracks if that's what's better? if the scene release is fake i'll go off the cd tracks give me a few hours

it seems like its C)
well, its known that some labels tend to share the wrong tracks, and its the case even here.
Yeah, the mixes are more likely to contain the correct tracks everyone wants. As for the wrong tracks, those are the only 2 (Power of Love and SMD1) i can confirm are incorrect

Which version of Pretty Green Eyes do you consider to be lossless?
I don't think the version used here is the one that's on Hardcore Til I Die, as most of those tracks are edits.

edit: see my reply about wronng tracks being added to the unmixed digital album

yeah i so hence why i added a new reply at the bottom

now found a lossless copy of DJ Demo - You're Mine (Slipmatt Remix) 6.18 :)

Now sorted the following 2 tracks
54 - DJ Yanny - Won't Forget These Days (DJ Digress Remix)
55 - Angel One - Hold Me Tonight (DJ Pontos Remix)

i think Toy Town is 02 - Hixxy & Sharkey - Toy Town (In Ya' Face Mix)

Based on what's used on the Slipmatt & DBD mix, it's actually Noddy and BigEars mix.

now sorted DJ Frantic - Braveheart (Hardcore Mix)

ok so i've gone off the tracks from the mixed cds so below is what's needed

Hopscotch - Steam Train (Original Mix)
Asa & S1 Ft Lou Lou - Makin' Me Wanna Dance (Sy & Unknown Remix) (LOSSY From Beatport)
Scott Brown - Turn Up The Music (Original Mix)
Brisk & Ham - Crazy Love (Original Mix) (LOSSY)
Styles & Breeze - Slide Away (Sy & Unknown Remix)
Styles & Breeze - Electric (Original Mix)
Sy & Unknown - Bring Me Round To Love (Scott Brown's Evolution Remix) (LOSSY)
Basshunter - Now You're Gone (Sy & Unknown Remix)
Sash! - Raindrops (Dougal & Gammer Remix)
Basshunter - I Miss You (Slipmatt & Sparky Remix)

these ones look abit hiffy to me what you think?

at a glance, most of those looks fine, but the ones that have a soft-limit at 16-17khz look ambiguous. Either upscales, or that's how it was made originally.

ok sound they should be ok for now then i guess unless they is better quality outhere who knows, just the ones above the links needed then they must be available somewhere? i know 2 of them was never released digitally as far as i'm aware anyway

so the unmixed mp3 version that was shared on here is official then as i suspected

Haven't compared the track lengths but the release date referenced in the nfo corresponds to the official listing. I suspect it is legit

i thought it was, oh well i've done full length tracks now anyway copied them from the mix cd, most of them are edits on the unmixed release which is annoying tbh

The problem is that some of the unmixed are not the same that appears on the mixed. At least that is true for Power of Love and SMD#1.

yeah thats what i mean makes no sense in them doing completely different tracks to whats on the actual mix cd

Either right issues, labels workers being knobs, labels heads wanting to push certain versions instead of what the DJs used. Or the DJ's just gave them the wrong files.

most of them are edits of the original though that's whats we are saying pointless trying to complete that when we can try complete with the full length tracks, i need the following as mentioned above

So what's left to fill this with?

Could do with getting that Turn Up The Music WAV from Q91 lol.

Hopscotch - Steam Train (Original Mix)
Asa & S1 Ft Lou Lou - Makin' Me Wanna Dance (Sy & Unknown Remix) (LOSSY From Beatport)
Scott Brown - Turn Up The Music (Original Mix)
Brisk & Ham - Crazy Love (Original Mix) (LOSSY)
Styles & Breeze - Slide Away (Sy & Unknown Remix)
Styles & Breeze - Electric (Original Mix)
Sy & Unknown - Bring Me Round To Love (Scott Brown's Evolution Remix) (LOSSY)
Basshunter - Now You're Gone (Sy & Unknown Remix)
Sash! - Raindrops (Dougal & Gammer Remix)
Basshunter - I Miss You (Slipmatt & Sparky Remix)

Don't worry, I will upload it XD

Ianbailey's appear to have found quite a lot, so I'd say he earns the fill request.

Those S&B originals and exclusive to album remixes (Sash! etc.) are gonna be tough to get a hold of.

I don't know if it'll be against the rules, but if you don't find anymore by the end of the week, I'd consider you've done your best to fill the request.
If you're going to upload the mixes as well, please put them in a separate zip/rar file, as I only care for the unmxied tracks :P

Wait, you have the Re-Con remix of Still The One? In lossless?

That's some find!

Think admin should go with Q91's idea and let you fill if nothing else is found by the end of the week.

That's the same length as the original mix, are you sure it's the Re-Con remix? Plus, the remix wasn't on that album, it was the original. Re-Con's was on one of the Clubland X-Treme Hardcore comps.

This is the original:
https://krakenfiles.com/view/a5rVX2vqpg/file.html

it's 6 mins 10 same as yours, i've compared it with the vinyl copy it's re-con remix, according to the comments anyway?

Could you clip the intro or something and upload? The Re-Con remix was never released either.

i compared it with the clubland x-treme hardcore one to and it's sounds same to me, so they must have it wrong on the comp?

That comment is wrong. The one released on BABY34 is the original. The Re-Con remix is clearly different, as can be heard CXH1 (CD 1 track 5)

it'd help if you just posted a link coming up with nothing on discogs

changed this track aswell

02 - Hixxy & Sharkey - Toy Town (Noddy & Bigear's Mix) this sounds way to hard than whats on the mixed cd

To

02 - Hixxy & Sharkey - Toy Town (In Ya' Face Mix) and this sounds bang same

also the Visa - Fly Away (Hixxy Remix) 4.39 is an edit not the full version as the full version is 6.23 BABY35

they both sound same to me 4.39 just obviously shorter

I'll have to agree with Ian here. They're the same remix, but altered slightly for some reason.
(I'm basing it on the itunes sample of nukleuz version and the full RB version uploaded to youtube, as they sound exactly the same just before the outro kicks in)

There's piano at the start of one of the breakdowns that isn't on the other, and there more sounds/samples after the intro on the RB one. They're basically the same but little differences lol.

Funny this is the Nukleuz one also has a radio edit of it, which is basically a radio edit already.

this is what's needed don't think we'll get them either apart from 24 - Scott Brown - Turn Up The Music (Original Mix) Need 5.53 as Q91 as that

16 - Hopscotch - Midnight Express (Steamtrain) (Original Mix) Need 5.53
22 - Asa & S1 Ft Lou Lou - Makin' Me Wanna Dance (Sy & Unknown Remix) (LOSSY From Beatport) 6.53
24 - Scott Brown - Turn Up The Music (Original Mix) Need 5.53
32 - Brisk & Ham - Crazy Love (Original Mix) (LOSSY) 7.49
34 - Styles & Breeze - Slide Away (Sy & Unknown Remix) Need 5.53
38 - Sy & Unknown - Bring Me Round To Love (Scott Brown's Evolution Remix) (LOSSY) 6.03
37 - Styles & Breeze - Electric (Original Mix) Need 5.33
41 - Basshunter - Now You're Gone (Sy & Unknown Remix) Need 4.35
42 - Sash! - Raindrops (Dougal & Gammer Remix) Need 5.58
60 - Basshunter - I Miss You (Slipmatt & Sparky Remix) Need

also changed 39 - United In Dance Ft Lisa Marie - Still The One (Original Mix) From (Re-Con Remix)

Yeah I can't see any of those turning up. You done a helluva job getting them all in.

yeah thats just an edit and also lossy

it's the same one i have that i bought from beatport

More than likely there is no true lossless version, like a lot of the UK labels they send out vinyl rips and mp3 sourced to download stores for some odd reason.

yeah i've searched high and low and i was dissapointed when i bought it from beatport, so am guessing there isn't a true lossless of that track, i just got a refund on that

Only 10 tracks missing out of 60 is a big feat, hopefully admin allows you to fill... could always make a separate request for the 10 missing ones.

yeah it's not bad only took me a few hour

thanks but it's lossy please see Q91 speks of that track

Found a full version of Hopscotch - Midnight Express (Steamtrain) but it's lossy grrrr it's on the release Supersonik Hardcore (WEB 2014)

FLAC of Turn up the music, while we wait for Ian to upload the rest:
https://krakenfiles.com/view/0bJLICmJfF/file.html

Most annoying that Scott can't re-sell this version of the track.
And if anyone's wondering, there is no lossless version of Styles & Breeze's remix. Even Scott Brown had to use a mp3 when he made his Bonkers 9 (or was it on 10?) mix.
So for anyone who managed to buy it on Evolution's MP3 store, you got the best version of it.

the comment content is available to the registered users only.

Action: 

Fill

Was it not the Re-Con remix of Still The One you had then or is it just not in the archive because it's not in the tracklist? If you have it I would give both my arms and at least one of my legs for it. Thanks for the upload either way

Just some information on the tracks

Clearly [remastered] upscales:
Ida Corr Vs Fedde Le Grand - Let Me Think About It (Dougal & Gammer Remix)
Cascada - Miracle (Darwin Remix)

Something appears to be off in the higher frequencies. Unsure if upscales are not, or just a common anomaly from mastering tracks that didn't have freq that went that high originally:
GBT Inc Ft Alison Wade - Better Day (Original Mix)
Bang The Future - Body Slam (Original Mix)

You can check it yourself.
MP3 usually compresses the audio above 15khz or 18khz depending on the settings used when encoding. Your upload clearly shows signs of compression artifacts above 15khz

Sorry friend Q91, I am very interested in this topic, can you tell me a program that shows what you are saying? Thank you.

I dont use spek to verify. I use the spectrogram within foobar2000 player, as it shows the spectrum while playing, so more in detail than spek does.
But in this case, the spectrum on krakenfiles clearly shows something.
