So i've been ripping all of my hardcore underground releases into full MP3 mixes (without cut tracks/1 second breaks between songs) and i have re-realized that there are NO high quality covers for ANY of the hardcore underground releases (be it the main series or artist albums)
I was kind of curious CDJay as to whether you still have high quality originals for all of the hardcore underground releases and if it would be possible to upload them into a cover archive on the hardcore underground site? I think it would be a rad idea for the people who enjoy tagging all of their releases and making sure they look as nice as possible and not like they have been thrown through a blender. Most covers i can only manage to find are a super low resolution (i.e 300x300 or 500x500) and it doesn't necessarily look too swell when i want to drool over the art!

My guess is there are business reasons for not putting them out, as people have asked before. I remember a while back HU put out a high resolution canvas of some album, and said specifically that it was a limited edition made from the original high resolution file.

Grab a scanner and scan the covers in, in whatever resolution you fancy! Job done. :)

Oh hell man, I didn't say you HAD to do it haha! Cool beans though!
Would this include every cover art from the hardcore underground d library? Including albums not in stock anymore? I know I'd love to have high quality covers for underground 5, 6 and other albums not sold!

Usually I drop 500 x 500 cover art to drop on the mp3 file instead a HQ 1MB or 2MB cover art. Just for drop more music on the phone / PC or any device.
Just details.

Absolutely, hopefully we'll have a first iteration ready for the site migration over the weekend! See also: Missing Brisk album track.
Then onto retroactive digital rights assignment

Still working on it, as I type this!
We might have some additional functionality rolling out end month, which will make that retroactive digital rights assignment possible. Finally!
