We have great pleasure in presenting to you, the long awaited 10th installment of the classic "WOW! (What A Rush)" budget series, the album the Hardcore scene has been waiting for!

Other than Bonkers, WOW! is the longest running series of Happy Hardcore compilations anywhere in the world. The first installment hit the shelves back in 1998 to massive acclaim and volumes one to nine have kept the ravers dancing ever since. Packed with tried and tested, hands-in-the-air crowd pleasers, it’s no wonder they’re still popular 8 years after the initial release!

WOW! Volume 10 is certainly a worthy sequel to such a prestigious collection. Crammed full of new and exclusive tracks that are guaranteed to please, including the much sought after ‘Magical Rainbow’ from Darwin and the voice of hardcore herself, Jennifer Bolton. Plus, Optimistic’s ‘Beautiful’ and Darwin’s thumping new remix of ‘House of Fun’ by the definitive Love Nation & Donna Grassie.

Also exclusive to WOW! 10 are two dynamite offerings from the producer of the moment Cube::Hard featuring the sublime vocal talents of Poison Rain. ‘Vitality’ and ‘Spiritual High’ both have massive cross over appeal and have commanded respect from Hardcore fans and Drum and Bass DJs alike. The tantalizingly uplifting ‘Beautiful Day’, ‘House Of Fun’ & ‘Musical Foundation’ by Love Nation also exclusive to WOW! 10, as is Deeper Territory’s own ‘Electro Funk’ and his storming collaboration with Poison Rain entitled ‘If U Follow Me’.

WOW! (What A Rush) Vol 10 is also proud to present previously unreleased tracks such as the frantic ‘Save My Soul’ from the widely respected DJ Fury. A brand new take on ‘U R Everything’ by the much revered hardcore legend Helix, remixed by Hardcore’s hottest property Cube::Hard, is also featured. A mix that will go down in hardcore history as a floor-filling, sing-along anthem!

WOW! Volume 10 brings together a tight mix of vibey, full-on anthems from some of the hottest artists from back in the day as well as the ones to watch for the future. Representing a vivid cross-section of the musical underground and combining aspects of Drum and Bass, Trancecore and Happy Hardcore, WOW! 10 will appeal to all aspects of the Hard Dance community. No matter how eclectic your taste for Hardcore, this album has something to get everybody moving and the DJs agree, with these tracks gracing the sets of Hardcore legends like Brisk, Scott Brown, Sharkey, Dougal, Marc Smith, Gammer, Breeze, Styles, Hixxy to name a few.
