Bunter tears it up

"The 'Future of Hard Dance - Vol 1' is an amazing, non-stop mix of continous hard house/techno and trance. Having taken quite a step sideways from Bunter's normal choice a Hardcore Techno - a move he attributes to a stagnation in the scene - Hard Dance explores the realms of super fast minus the sledge hammer. The beats are still hard - just not hardcore. The track selection is superb - creating an atmospheric mix that has that 'epic' feeling minus the cheese of the Gategrasher/Ministry or Cream CDs. This is avoided through the pace and intensity of the tracks and the excellent mixing - Bunter's trade mark. Dont let his deviation deter those who like hardcore- I do and I dug this - just something a little different."

"Pretty good, but the more I listen to it, the more it sounds like happy hardcore. It seems to get cheesier and cheesier. I do like it, its nice and fast with plenty of interesting noises, but it could do with being a bit harder. The one track set up is mildly annoying, but I suppose its indicative of a non commercial production."
