No releases which are for sale on sites like BeatPort or Itunes should have mp3s posted here &#8211; if they are, there should be links to those sites rather than to direct mp3s.  PLEASE, if you see any labels with tracks here who are now selling their tunes on a legit mp3 site, email me right away at <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/blog\/images\/email_pete.gif\"> and I will take them down\/switch them to streaming only. In addition, if you are the artist or label behind a tune here and want it taken down for whatever reason, just email me at <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/blog\/images\/email_pete.gif\"> and I will take it down immediately.   This is NOT meant as an mp3 dump\/leech site, but to raise awareness about a lot of the good and more obscure hardcore releases still lurking in used record stores and on sites like Ebay and Discogs. <\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, if any classic oldskool labels or artists like the site and would like their tunes featured here, please get in touch!! <\/p>\n<p>Any questions, criticisms, etc can be sent to &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/blog\/images\/email_pete.gif\">  <\/p>\n<p><B>Banner<\/b><br \/>\nIf you like this blog and want to spread the word, feel free to use this banner:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/blog\/images\/blog2theoldskool_stationaryad.gif\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The purpose of this blog is to provide information about some of the amazing &#038; lesser known hardcore\/jungle releases put out from 1991-1995, as well as some of the artists and labels responsible for releasing them.
