Out of the Bonkers series, Bonkers Vol 3 has to be one of the best. 3 CDs containing tracks from the cream of the crop of Hppy Hardcore from 1997. Disc one is mixed by Hixxy, one of the original mixmasters and features some of his own classic tracks including "Together Forever", "Return To Toytown" and "Starry Night". Hardcore die hards will also recognise all time favourites such as Scott Brown in one of his many alter-egos as Q-Tex and the awesome "Power of Love 97". This disc is incredibly happy, bouncy and truly conveys the feeling and the atmosphere of Happy Hardcore in that era.
Disc 2 is mixed by Sharkey and the tone gets slighly darker but no less happy as we are transported into the hardcore realm which preceded freeform, Sharkey's own brand of fast, bouncy dance which has made him really stand out from the crowd.
Disc 3 mixed by Dougal is my least favourite of the three as it becomed a little repetative and is very reminiscent of the Hixy disc. However, tight mixing and classic tunes such as "Follow the Sun", "Steamtrain" and "Follow Me" make the slight flaws barely noticeable.
