But they have a pattern, they have a similar beat, which gradually winds its way up with a hook from the original vocal (if there was one) and then it reaches a crescendo just when the needle hits the run out groove. And it not me hating on CC, its just a general observation. Cheers BT
Re: (313) Carl Craig Remix
Hmm I dunno Tom, some of these C2 mixes are very formulaic. Things like that Darkness rework (Max Mix) he did, and things like that Xpress2 Kill 100 track, Terry Brookes remix, that Delia and Gavin Mix, even that Falling Up mix. Don't get me wrong though, I still be em all but they are a little C2-by-numbers. robin... what exactly are the similarities in his recent remixes aside from the fact that a large number of them are ridiculously dope? i cant think of two that sound the same, or even similar. i cant believe c2 would get hated on for being too good. that doesnt make any sense. tom

Can I add a vote for some old mixes as still being pretty amazing? I was listening to last.fm yesterday and Carl's remix of Spacetime Continuum's Kairo came on. Still one of my favorite CC mixes ever! Another forgotten favorite: Carl's remix of Can's Future Days. I love the way that build and build and there's never any kick drum. bvl
(313) Deetron - Life's Soundtrack - RadioSlave remix
Anyone know anything about this? It's on that Radio Slave Essential mix posted up before. The original mix didn't appeal to me though I like Bone's vocal over the top. The Radio Slave rework is nice though. robin...
(313) Aril Brikha - Winter (again)
Anyone else feel like it reminds them of Stand Back by Stevie Nicks? :) derek.
Re: (313) Aril Brikha - Winter (again)
If anyone hasn't heard it it's at http://www.myspace.com/arilbrikha It has a similar chord progression, but not the same. Not a bad track but Aril's in danger of being embraced by the progressive DJs for stuff like this. Maybe Salsa and Dickweed will pick up on it. Chymera has a track that originally sampled You Can Go Your Own Way by Fleetwood Mac. I advised him to drop the sample because the track didn't need it, but he still drops the sample when he plays it out. Never underestimate the power of Fleetwood Mac. I saw them live in 1976, and with the exception of a few Christine McVie weepers, it was a full on dance party. And if you're into collecting and using sample CDs, the Mick Fleetwood sample CD is insanely great. On 2/7/07, Derek Plaslaiko.

I kept my mouth shut the first time around ... but ... seriously. That chord progression, in whatever variation, is not something I want to hear in a techno track, especially on a weak sounding synth sound. Maybe in some pseudo-GangOfFour discopunk hipster version with lots of guitar and silly lyrics making fun of dance parties I could handle it. But I can't listen to it without laughing. I don't know what to call it, prog, trance, whatever, but I can't even listen to the whole thing in one sitting. Every time I hear that chord progression, it reminds of me of early 90's rave music, and also Good Vibrations by Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch, and Haddaway What Is Love. It's the ultimate dance party anthem chord progression. Kind of like the Louie Louie chord progression was for rock bands of days gone by. As far as Swedish music, I'll take new Adam Beyer and Par Grindvik any day over this Aril track. ~David

Re: (313) Aril Brikha - Winter (again)
What a load of crap that tune is - not only is the chord progression bad but the synthy strings coming up behind it are totally Tiestolicious. It sounds like an old BT track. Blech.

I quite like Gang of Four but I notice there's some kids running around these days who have a penchant for imitating their style, though with a very different intent I guess... ~D On 2/7/07, Martin Dust [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: - Original Message - From: David Powers [EMAIL PROTECTED] Maybe in some pseudo-GangOfFour discopunk hipster version How very dare you!! ;) m

Frankly, I don't think he gives a sh*t what we think. After reading some of the blog entries on his myspace page, this statement for example: SUPPORT TRANCE MUSIC...AND MUSICIANS WITH CHEESY TASTE IN MUSIC! THANKS. .ARIL I get the feeling that his tongue is placed firmly in his cheek on this one. Still, no reason to support cheesy music even if it was supposed to be sort of funny. I went back and had a listen to his Prey for Peace/Dissorganized ep and thought those tracks were halfway to tranceville as well. A little to Uplifting for my taste. which one is the trance tune? http://mp3.juno.co.uk/MP3/SF181852-01-01-01.mp3 http://mp3.juno.co.uk/MP3/SF154298-01-02-01.mp3 http://mp3.juno.co.uk/MP3/SF255851-01-01-01.mp3 http://mp3.juno.co.uk/MP3/SF197373-01-01-08.mp3 MEK Thomas D.

Re: (313) Detroit Beatdown Vol 2
I've heard a selection of the tracks and there are some absolute corkers, including some stuff that is maybe a step away from what people might expect from a Beatdown compilation. Don't want to spoil the surprise so I'll limit myself to saying that the first one has a track by Smith Hall (Delano and Derwin Hall) that has potential to be pretty big in a Bar-A-Thym kind of way. I really like it. In related good news, Mike Clark is back in the studio. On 7 Feb 2007, at 16:14, robin wrote: So, Third Ear are about to release this soon aren't they?

The DRM issue is in the news at the moment which is why I linked that article. I can see the point of DRM but as a music buyer I avoid it like the plague. If it's there I want as little intrusion as possible though. robin...
