Speed Limit 140 BPM+ - Spinoffs

Spinoffs

The series had three major spinoffs, all of which were still released by Moonshine Music. These were identified as spinoffs from the original series by having the classic "speed limit sign" logo appearing somewhere on the release's artwork.

The first one chronologically was entitled Law Of The Jungle, which compiled a selection of ragga jungle and drum & bass originally released by UK record label SOUR Records. Only one volume was ever released in 1994.

The second spinoff was the popular Happy2bHardcore series of happy hardcore mix CDs. Each volume was mixed by Canadian DJ Anabolic Frolic, and it ran for a total of seven volumes released between 1997 and 2003.

The third and final spinoff was Speed Limit 140 BPM+: The New Era, a single volume mix CD released in 2001. This spinoff bore little resemblance to earlier releases in the Speed Limit series, as the music on the disc was primarily UK hard house. However, it maintained a link to the earlier releases by featuring a 3D rendering of the classic "speed limit sign" logo on its cover, as well as by being mixed by DJ Slipmatt, a former hardcore artist who had previously appeared on volumes five and seven of the original series.
