DJ TNT X AKA Mister GabberManzion - The Early Hardcore Summer Mix 2014


It is Thursday today, and it's snowing still. Well, at least where I live. So I'm sitting inside, WFH, and the heating is on. But truth be told, I really don't need the heating on, as long as the music is hard enough. That will keep me going. And today's mix is one I've only found yesterday, after searching Soundcloud for something new and exciting. Of course it had to be some kind of Hardcore music, as we need it to keep us warm and cosy. It is cold though, so wrap yourselves up nicely, and press play. Within minutes you will not feel cold anymore.

So what is it that might keep us warm? Well, a mix by someone called DJ TNT also known as GabberManzion. If I'm correct in saying, this is the one YouTube channel that uploads a fuck ton of Gabber/Hardcore mixes/CDs/etc? I might be wrong, which normally I am, but this name is so unique and eye catchy, I guess that this time I'm right?


He/she has got an interesting mix for us. An early/Millennium Hardcore mix, and a nicely long one too. Nearly 2 1/2 hours long, and split into multiple sections, like 'Early Hardcore', 'Millennium' and 'Terrocore'. 62 records in 2 1/2 hours, not bad. Not bad at all. But it depends on which records GabberManzion/ DJ TNT has picked.


It is always tricky to make a mix that pleases everyone, but this mix could be the one that pleases a lot of people, all in one go. But it's important that the songs are good. It's up to you to make that decision, just check out the tracklist:

This is a tracklist of beauty. This is truly what I wanted to hear, and have been hearing since 6am. This has been on repeat, over and over, and it's been a blessing hearing these classics in here. Good selection DJ TNT.


This is my childhood in a nutshell. So many songs I grew up listening to. So many of them have been played on my Walkman and 'my first CD player' by the same brand, and I was so in awe of everything made in the 90s. Bring back the memories, that's what I normally say, and this mix does exactly that.


Good classic anthems. Some well known and some known, but forgotten. And normally at this stage I would pick one favourite, but that's not possible, so I'll pick one out of each section:

  • Early Hardcore Part I - Public Domain - The Puritan

  • Early Hardcore Part II - Davie Forbes - Integator

  • Early Hardcore Part III - Rave Generation - Going Crazy

  • Millennium Hardcore - Meagashira - End Of Line

  • Terrorcore - DJ Skinhead - Extreme Terror III

But there are so much more records to thoroughly enjoy. If you are into 90s and early 2000nd music, you will love more than just 5 records.


Now the bad news. There are also a few mixing errors and mistakes. And some tracks are just plainly bad. Or have become bad due to radio overkill. Which is a pity. But it's not an easy flowing mix. DJ TNT's effort results into an OK mix, but it could have been much better.


Still worth your time listening to it, but not the best 90s/Millennium Hardcore mix on Soundcloud, unfortunately.
