SCOTT BROWN

Just under 3 hours of the greatest music ever played at Helter Skelter in 1998! From breakbeat hardcore to vocals to tough stuff to trancecore...it's all here.

I listened to happy hardcore 24/7 in 1998 and bought everything I could, so many happy memories of listening to Bonkers 4 at school and buying every tapepack I could! Some of my ALL TIME favourite records are in this mix and there's some exclusives too! A lot of these tunes mean the world to me so I hope you enjoy listening as much as I enjoyed mixing it!

Happy hardcore will always be my first love, there's something so beautiful about these records, unashamedly silly music that puts a smile on your face and lifts your mood. From me to you...enjoy.
