The first Acid Kandee release is a 3-tracker featuring a storming selection of hardcore by Ultravibes - the veteran duo hailing from Germany, whose release history covers such labels as Warped Science and Essential Platinum.

The A side of AK001 is all about the massive remix of Neoclubber's "Dreams Come True", a delight for those who like their hardcore vocal and euphoric. On the flipside the German wizards go wild with two edgy UK hardcore tracks - the powerful "Drugs" and the not-so-cheesy vocal & guitar laden smasher "This Time".

AK001 12" vinyl is out now, distributed exclusively worldwide by Icon Distribution, with digital releases (CD singles and MP3/WAV) to follow in a month's time.

...or any other hardcore outlet of your choice. It might be out of stock at the moment - apparently the demand is considerable (yay!) - so please use the "request stock" feature and be patient for a few days. :)

IMPORTANT:
Acid Kandee is a new label, so naturally not all stores are enthusiastically grabbing it for their stock right away. Most hardcore outlets will be able to secure it for you upon specific request, so don't hesitate to contact your favourite retailer if they don't officially have it in stock.

The severely delayed Acid Kandee website - [ www.acidkandee.com ] - will be launching very soon (up to 2 weeks from now). Along with it should come Facebook and possibly other fancy stuff. Please watch this space.

Bottom line... Thanks for the support and enjoy your first Acid Kandee, omnom!

After long months of creative waiting, switching concepts and missing deadlines, we're proud to announce the 4th installment of Crush On Hardcore. With over 100 quality tracks spanning across 5 mixes, this one is bound to be bigger than ever.

The free UK/freeform hardcore digital album comes with a pleasantly stunning variety of styles, from happy bouncy singalong anthems to dark and twisted monsters. Some of the tracks have been written exclusively for COH4 and the long list of featured artists includes such massive names as Darwin, Fracus, Sharkey, Brisk, Weaver, Hixxy, Impact, Uplift, Stormtrooper, Orbit1, S3RL - not to mention the COH4 DJs' own productions and some very interesting material from up & coming producers.
