Storm Amy is currently creating a bit of chaos in the UK, and I'm guessing also in the Netherlands. She is certainly unleashing hell among us all. She blows, and she is causing devastation. Unnecessary, but she does what she wants. Not a great day to leave the house: it is best to stay in and remain safe. While remaining indoors, not getting wet and get blown away, let me remind you that there's a mix online you will appreciate, if you are into early Hardcore music. And kind of suits the current weather outside.

It's a mix by Fer-D & Jason S. You would have definitely seen their names on this humble website. Not the first time I've encountered their names, but the first time they joined forces and made a fantastic mix together. Both have a undying love for Hardcore, and so do I. But they are more talented than I am. I cannot mix, not for love nor money. I'm talentless, but probably a bit more talented in the blogging side of life (I presume).

Both came together to rekindle their love for the early Hardcore side of life, and decided to unleash hell. Not literally, but you know what I mean. They created a very cool mix, which contains a lot of forgotten gems. You know the ones: you don't hear them or see them that often. Not so much obscure as mostly forgotten, which is obviously a shame. We all grew up with these songs, but for whatever reason, they did not remain in the spotlight. But thanks to Fer-D & Jason S, we are reminded that they are still out there, waiting to receive the proper appreciation they deserve.

See if you remember them all, and I want you to be honest: how many years ago did you last heard these songs?

What a selection! This is great. So many unknown and forgotten anthems in here. It is always amazing to relive the 90s again, in such an awesome and wholesome way. Hardcore was great, and very experimental, and it gave us a wide range of tracks, with all a different sound to it. From the happier sounding songs to the harder and more darker songs. And to cram 29 into a 74 minute long mix, that's always very pleasant to hear.

I think at least 90% of these songs I've not heard in a very long time. It's been a while. And sadly there's a track which I hoped I would have escaped from. Certainly a contender for one of the worst Hardcore songs ever made. Maybe it's because I'm not from Rotterdam, but 'Rotterdam Subway' isn't a great song. Kind of basic, and boring to the core. Hey, I did say they made some songs which were experimental. But this track never did anything to me.

Which ones did? Well, 'Revolution'. Come on, what a beast of a track. And 'Weekend Track', another solid anthem. 'Dreamgirl' was such a dancefloor smasher. 'Short Circuit' still a ground-breaking anthem. And as difficult as it was, I pick 'Move' by 4Voice as my favourite. Which isn't technically speaking a Hardcore song, but one catchy and very memorable song.

They should come together more often, Fer-D & Jason S. And as there are so many more great songs out there from the early Hardcore years, they must have a plethora of options: more mixes like this one please.

Who can say no to the early Hardcore years? If you are saying no to it, please leave this page, and leave us gabbers alone. If you love Hardcore, you have to appreciate the early sound too. It's what made the current sound possible.

Besides 'Rotterdam Subway', it has been a very pleasant journey. Storm Amy, you aren't the only one causing mayhem in my house. This mix is doing some serious damage too!
