SKIPPIN TRAX RECORDS INFO
Skippin Trax Records is a small happy hardcore / Bouncy Techno label started in the heart of the West Country of England in Weston-Super-Mare by a young Hardcore DJ by the name of SKIPPY, A well known happy hardcore DJ from the likes of GBH, Fusion & Adrenalin. Skippy started Skippin Trax Records in July of 1999, It started off slow with a release every 6 or 7 months whilst the label gained capital and got off the ground slowly but surely with all of the first 3 releases selling out. Now over a year later Skippy is more enthusiastic and focused than ever, with releases planned every 6-8 weeks as from (2001) and an army of well-established producers and DJ's all with finished material lined up for Skippin Trax, Artists such as Fade, Devastate & Robbie long, Storm, Impact, Diewrecked amongst other up and coming producers such as DOK who is proving to be a popular producer of Hardcore. Skippy is well into the bouncy techno Spanish hardcore and firmly believes that with the lack of UK hardcore releases, this sound will fill gaps in the production place and can develop into a popular form of bouncy hardcore, Obviously the vocals material is a well known part of hardcore but he believes that it cant stay too happy and vocally forever.
