Hardware XV: History of Hardware - info & audio


Finally approaching full release we are very pleased to announce that the long awaited Hardware XV album will be released on 18th April.



Available on CD, LP and MP3.

The CD contains 30 full-length tracks over 3 discs. Packaged in a deluxe digi pack with an 8 page booklet. Complimenting the CD will be 3, separate triple pack vinyl LP’s. The first of which: ‘Originals Part 1’ will be released simultaneously with the CD. 2 additional vinyl EP's will be released later in the year.

With a tracklisting reading like a who’s who of drum & bass including cuts from the original pioneers such as Future Forces, Dillinja, Optical & Fierce, Konflict & Future Cut to the biggest names in modern drum and bass: Pendulum, Noisia, Spor, Chase & Status & Friction.

Not just a collection of obvious classics (although there are many) this album is a showcase of iconic artists and examples of their craft that have helped shape and develop the label into what you recognise today. A simply essential collection of music. The definitive Hardware album.
