The Source?
They already had "The Source Code Of Creation" back in 2014. Looks like they are running out of ideas.
1 minute and 2 minute tracks, Are todays harder producers uncapable of producing interesting music now at 5,6,7 or 8 minutes long? It's just getting silly now. How long until most producers are doing 30 second tracks?
its quantity over quality. they just crammed a 100 tracks on two discs. all filler no killer!
Not a single track in this compilation should be anywhere near a top 100, laughable list.
Drokz - Eyes Are Closed is one of the top 100 tracks is it? Hahaha.
Some of the worst produced tracks ever made more like.
I hear ya - considering we don't even want edits as mp3s - why in fuck's name would we want to waste ten times the disk space as well on them short tracks?!!
So? Just because we aren't DUMB enough to pay for this, we are not allowed to criticize this steaming pile of shit? Get off your high horse, you pompous fuck.. Did you actually pay for this? No? Then shut the fuck up, you're not allowed to comment.
We are not stupid. We just don't enjoy a track that's pretty much empty in all regards. A live act can also consist of tracks longer than 90 seconds you know, but if this is what raw freaks crave for nowadays, I'm out.
How stupid is everyone? Of course the tracks are so short. They're supposed to be played live on stage. Because the tracks are so short, they have to play a lot of tracks in their set. It's a fucking live act. Stop whining and just enjoy this garbage and be happy you can hear them in hq now
As opposed to you who will fuck these artists by pirating their music so what does it matter anyway?
It's not about that. It's about the principle of releasing barely 90 seconds worth of a snippet with one full drop for money and call it a track. It's lazy and in my eyes a ripoff.
Ratings can (and often times are) manipulated by label employees, promoters etc to gain hype for an artist/release, which in turn creates more income to the people at the top of the power hierarchy pyramid.
Y'all complaining about track lengths...
Look, I'm a bit bummed out too, but a high rating (on this site, no less) doesn't lie
Actually no. These are all "edits". The new songs (Death Blow, Modulate etc) have standard lengths while the Overdose edits (Fake Shizzle, Die Gladiator etc) are just really short by default lol
Imagine talking about them wanting your money when you're on 1gabba trying to rip everything for free.
No, you have to buy the original mixes separately. You see the label wants your monies.. not some of it.. but all of it!
First you buy the edits. Then you buy them again as full tracks on a new release of the album. Or they are spread out across several "samplers" which you have to keep buying until you have all the album tracks. You buy, gentile!
Cool! Judging by the trac lengths that are like 90 secods a track - i assume this is some continuos dj mix right?
or as anyone with any sort of taste for actual music call this:
"Decade of shitty music"
Oha, ladies & gents... Wait for the full releases and get wasted! This will be awesome! :D
What the actual fuck are those tracklength? 1:12, 1:28, 1:33. Is this some kind of joke?
Man stupid fucking kids with the attention span of a housefly ruined this scene. This album is the perfect example of how bad modern mainstream hardstyle is. Tiny ass tracks with nothing but obnoxious kicks so that sweaty ass retards can kickroll to them. Even my 70 year old demented mother can...
get with the times, grandpa - they dont use kicks like that anymore in hardcore
I really like his vibe and melodies but this kick is shit. It's not as powerful as his tracks from ~3 years ago.
Drokz has done some really good tracks in the past, early Cunt Records stuff, Rebelscum 11 as Coffee Core, I can't Be Dissed on North Radical, a lot of the Creatures of The Occult stuff and tracks Mask Records. BUT, yeah most output from him for a few years now is pretty bad.
Rather than ALWAYS being mediocre, it seems to me as getting worse through the years. I think it's quite wrong...
I haven't paid too much attention to Akira but you're 100% right with the Drokz part - i was just listening to the latest Thunderdome and as soon as i heard a track on it i just knew "this must be Drokz", i checked my phone and sure enough it was a Drokz track. You just know because it's always the same.
but sometimes the track is hardcore, sometimes it's hardstyle. call it cross-genre multitalentism!
