crystal (lee coombs remix) rocks! you should definately get that, fucking tune!

haha - this thread is so very amusing, but to be fair, anyone with a bit of a clue would have realised that Confusion was a remix, since it actually has the words pump panel after it in brackets, and i'm asuming this was heard on the Blade soundtrack - it mentions it all there too

as for Kai Tracid 'inventing' the term acid trance - !!!

rofl, never heard anything so funny in my life.....

discogs is a very bad source when it comes to genres because according to it, 2 unlimited is techno, scooter is techno, brooklyn bounce is techno, alice deejay is techno, darude is techno, dj supreme is techno... u get the idea

never trust discogs, dude

Shit, if freakin figures that I forget the guy who remixed it

The version you probably heard first was in Blade.

Some dude remixed the original 'confusion' to a techno/acidy type beat and it freaking OWNED. It was cross genre and everyone dug it.

The original confusion was... different. Not my bag. But New Order- Crystal (original mix) is pretty good. Has a 60's/50's innocent feel to the melody.

New Order are great!

Originally taken from www.allmusic.com
Rising from the ashes of the legendary British post-punk unit Joy Division, the enigmatic New Order triumphed over tragedy to emerge as one of the most influential and acclaimed bands of the 1980s; embracing the electronic textures and disco rhythms of the underground club culture many years in advance of their contemporaries, the group's pioneering fusion of new wave aesthetics and dance music successfully bridged the gap between the two worlds, creating a distinctively thoughtful and oblique brand of synth-pop appealing equally to the mind, body, and soul. New Order's origins officially date back to mid-1976, when guitarist Bernard Sumner (formerly Albrecht) and bassist Peter Hook � inspired by a recent Sex Pistols performance � announced their intentions to form a band of their own. Recruiting singer Ian Curtis and drummer Stephen Morris, they eventually settled on the name Joy Division, and in 1979 issued their landmark debut LP, Unknown Pleasures.
After completing sessions for Joy Division's sophomore effort, Closer, Curtis hanged himself on May 18, 1980; devastated, the remaining trio immediately disbanded, only to re-form a few months later as New Order with the addition of keyboardist Gillian Gilbert. With Sumner assuming vocal duties, the new group debuted in March 1981 with the single "Ceremony," a darkly melodic effort originally composed for use by Joy Division. The LP Movement followed a few months later, and when it too mined territory similar to New Order's...


Their latest album is Get Ready. Crystal and Someone Like You are from that album. You have to listen to Bizarre Love Triangle and Blue Monday. These are essential tunes.

Mmm.. Blue Monday sure is a classic.. was it '83 or so when it originally came out? I like Hardfloor's '95 mixes most. Nice smoother acidic trance.

New Order is NOT rock. New Order are the godfathers of dance. 80s electronic dance scene was owned by New Wave/Synthpop groups like New Order, Duran Duran & Depeche Mode. These guys are masters of sampling. :P If you listen to any of their older works, you can hear a lot of modern dance elements in it. And a lot of current producers, like Paul van Dyk, are inspired by them.

NEW ORDER are the best...well they are my favourite...

that confusion pump panel remix and that public domain saong are just horrible butchering jobs to a new order purist like myself....

the original is way different..

blue monday- the original 12 inch is the an essential track by them. also it happens to be the biggest selling 12 inch of all time.

new order are not rock, synth-pop new wave if one must classify them.

essential new order tracks:
temptation, blue monday, perfect kiss, true faith.

the album to get by them is 'substance'
also thry out the REST of new order for some dancier tracks.

i have all their albums and if you really start to get into them then check out joy division, and make the pilgrammage to macclesfield to visit ian curtis' grave and the manchester to see where it all began...

new order is a big inspiration for pvd. he did a remix of spooky for them in 1992. new order is good like that using dj's to rermix some of their singles.

Bizarre Love Triangle (Extended Mix) is my favorite

I like 1963 (1995 Mix) a lot too. You can hear trance elements in that one. In fact one of my soon to be completed remixes is inspired by that.

Regret is more rockish but it's a great song anyway.

this remix was actually released in 1995, a couple of years before acid trance kicked off, this track is just an early acid techno track. am i the only one that see's this?

i think Hardfloor's Acperience 1 kicked off acid-trance at the end of 1992. back in the mid-90s they were in popular demand remixing all kinds of tracks from New Order -> Depeche Mode -> Robert Armani.

is it "techno"? it depends on how you define the word. some use "techno" strictly for the hard/minimalist sound but some use it to enscope "electronica". musical genre terms change over time. think about "alternative" and "pop".


Posted by Noisician on Apr-30-2003 20:53:

yes, acperience1 is one of the earliest acid trance attempts ever. a true classic it is.

and nuke, early acid techno trax were different from the confusion remix. they were heavily influenced by hardcore at that time. i can upload some samples from 1993-1996 period for u to hear

.edit.

i just found a good site that includes excellent examples of EARLY acid techno and acid trance of the same timeframe. see for yourselves what i meant by a huge hardcore influence on acid techno in the early period:

http://www.clubdjforum.com/techno.html
http://www.clubdjforum.com/trance.html

i bet many of u would call the sample in acid trance section techno, but it's not!

assuming your talking about
public domain- blood is pumping
think it was a mix of voodoo and serrano's blood and new order's confusion.

Heh, u have mixed up a few tunes here.. they are actually

Voodoo & Serano - Blood Is Pumping
Public Domain - Operation Blade (Bass To The Place)

both use New Order - Confusion (Pump Panel Reconstruction) / Pump Panel - Confusion (Reconstruction Remix) as a source.

And for the Confusion (Pump Panel Reconstruction) argument, it DEFINATELY IS acid trance!


Posted by Micheline on May-01-2003 07:41:

its not acid trance!! stop saying that. everybody who heard classifed it as techno. Its acid techno. or some kind of techno anyway.


Posted by obs on May-01-2003 08:22:

who fucking cares if it is acid-jungle-break-trance? just listen and enjoy it. and if you don't like it, you can always go jerk off to your pvd posters.

and all you know-it-all "own" dudes can own the shit from my toilet bowl.
