Booklet-notes:
Since man came on this Earth there was music and along with the evolution of man the music also had his own evolution. Nowdays there is a great variety of music and artcore is just one of them, but artcore is more. Artcore is energy, artcore is pure, it's a way of life.

This compilation, that is probably pumping into yer mind at this moment, gives you an insight of the best hardcore tracks from the past and the present. We very carefully selected these tracks to give you the right picture and leaving the bullshit out.

We devided da compilation into two seperated parts. Da first part (the hardcore zone) is just the Hardcore as you all know it, but there's more. The second part is called the Experimental Zone.
This part shows you that.
It's to expand your mind, to give you an insight of the other styles, that there is more under the term Hardcore. Or is this going to be the future-music...?! Who knows...

We hope you will enjoy this compilation and just keep in mind that we respect you the same way as you respect uz!!!

Pleaze, stay true to Da Core....
The Ruffneck Alliance

Ruffneck Soldiers Message PT.1

Hail To 'The Tower'
The commandopost from where the Ruffnecksound is being spread amongst it's soldiers.
The sound on which the die-hards will march on, party after party again.
Being a Ruffneck means more than being one with da artcore.
You have to become one with the universe as the universe becomes one with you!
We all look forward to the day that our bodies lay down to rest and our spirits make the long journey to the end of the universe and beyond!!! That's where the Ruffplanet exists and all our minds will join forces to live in peace and eternity.
Until that special day arrives, there is a lot of work to be done!
We have to show the world that we are of good will.
Real Ruffneck-soldiers like us do not need or use drugs! We are not of violant behaviour and most important of all: we are no racists!!!
We're just people who like to enjoy the good things in life and that means party, party, party!!!
Spread this word amoung the other soldiers, so our army will grow until we are one big party-nation!

Ruffneck, thanxx for da artcore, we will never desert you!!!
