PvD gets his hands on Wavy Gravy and..
add in his "famous" base line and there we go - A BRAND NEW REWORK by PvD! oh, cant forget that drum roll that he uses in every new remix/rework of his nowadays.
gee, too bad he didnt have this one in time for Politics of Dancing, cos he probably would've included it there 
i guess PvD finally found his style, and he's not deviating much from it....
i prefer the ORIGINAL by Sasha 
did Sasha authorise PvD to mess with his tune?
>JM<
[edit] OMG OMG i just cant listen to the PvD rework of this tune, it just doesn't sound right after hours of listening to the original Sasha [/edit]
SASHA = KIN
EDITS-comments to posts below
yes PvD dId make it a danceable tune, and yes the brakebeat replaced with a steady 4 beat bassline - not creative at all as someone pointed out! as for dancing to Wavy Gravy, its not dancefloor material, and thats what makes PvD's rework so much more "cheesy" - cant term it correctly,...
@ Excite - i just heard the PvD rework, had the orig. for months now 
*hands u a flame suit*
i think ull be needing it...

If PvD hadn't reworked it, I probably would never have heard about it anyway. But after hearing the rework I got curious how the original sounded. I must say it's amazing but I do prefer the rework. (more energetic 
)
But of course all credit to Sasha for comming up with such a masterpiece.
shut your pie-hole, this is old news
PVD made the song danceable, that's why he did it

it's shit
just like......
Madonna - What it feels like for a girl (PvD rework)
iio - Rapture (PvD rework)
Spacefrog - Follow me (PvD cut)
I don't dislike PvD's rework. the original is more creative and interesting musically, however, it's hardly a dancefloor tune. PvD merely made it suitable for live play, and it came out nicely. Compared to the original it may be not that great, but relative to most other trance tunes produced, its quite excellent.
Time and time again, people complain about remixes, saying that they stray too far original, and take out all the good aspects of the tune. Now that PvD is sticking to the original as much as possible, just changing a few minor things to fit his style, he's criticized for being boring and unoriginal.
Moral of the story: You can't please everyone.

I love the rework.
i loved original... but in a club.. how would you dance to it? it is soooooooooo chilled that it would make you want to hug everyone else lmao
on the other hand, paul`s rework is banging and yes, danceable 
btw, terry bones remix of wavy gravy is amazing too
on side note: sasha did let Paul remix the track and there is a possible release on BMG

PVD turned an after-hours downtempo track into something u can actually dance to.
and its funny how you're posting this 5 months after we started talking about this track.
You guys are biased. He didnt do that much to the track. Just replace the breaks with a standard beat and wooh, heres his rework! Not much to it guys, even I can do that 
PVD could have been so much more creative with the re-work.
Example of how it should be done:-
I produce Ambient, down beat and soft trance tunes (really soft). My friend and co-producer Jon does more Neo & Farina style analogue synth business. He completely re-worked my tune 'lost opportunity' into a dancefloor monster. He retained all the emotion of the original but re-thought the arrangement, added new riffs and generally fucked with it.
If he can do a good job then a pro producer like PVD can as well. Thats why I was dissapointed with PVD's pathetic effort on 'Wavy gravy'.

Paul shat on a good tune, end of story, he doesn't do it very often so I have no hard feelings.
Just listened to the PvD mix of wavy gravy
and it hurts me.
The song in itself isn't too bad. it has the original wavy gravy synths, you can never go wrong with those.
the beat is just same old plain and boring.
to draw on what i posted earlier:
I'm a big fan of 4/4 on the floor, but break beat is just so much better to dance to.
and the break beat in the original wavy gravy just fits so much better with the synths than the "on the floor" beat.
Pvd took a very beautiful and well put together song and simplified it and turned it into something that is more "plain and boring"
If i had heard the PvD mix without ever hearing the original though, I would love it. Like i said earlier, the synths in wavy gravy are amazing.
