Excellent productions for the dancefloor. Those productions can destroy even a housey floor

The first minute of the Madonna remix is absolutely incredible. I almost fell of my chair when the bassline jumped in...

I pre-ordered mine yesterday from a different site. $18 total.

just ordered from promo records ltd, was 5 pounds for shipping to my country so it seemed like a bargain when you guys said 12 lol

I can see why these mixes were rejected in the first place. Very weak and disappointing mixes.

Yes, the track is boring and predictable. The build up is great but it builds to absolutely nothing. It loses all the energy and punch because of it.

if the nice people in Amsterdam hurry up i might be able to give an opinion by Wednesday

i heard the samples on dancegrooves.com.

radiohead remix 4/10

madonna remix 7/10

this is definetely not something to get your panties wet over.

Mr.Mystery is correct in saying that both tunes have text book trance structure.

I have a feeling if the name Tiesto was not on this release this would be called a cheesy song.

that said I only like the madonna remix, however, its borderline cheesy. My main concern is that this modonna song is a bit dated. If this song was released about 2 years ago than maybe I would have a different reaction.

How can you judge the structure of the tracks going by 2 minute long samples?

It's far from the perfect record but I fail to see how you can pick out the track structure as the main criticism... as far as trance goes it's not exactly THAT formulaic (as most asot/anjuna releases are, for example).

I used samples from 3 different websites. Dancegrooves, Juno , and one secert site I dont want to disclose

BTW I did buy the record at juno since it was only 4 pounds and their shipping is super fast ! I love madonna so I thought this would be a nice tune to listen to at home . Not sure if it will fit my sets though

I feel bad for those who bought it for like 20 pounds ..now thats

That all depends on personal opinion. As far as this 'not getting too much publicity if it didn't have Ti�sto on it,' I attempt to listen to tracks with as little bias as possible, and I still really enjoy this. It's always been better than the Wonky remix, which in my opinion, really lacks something in it.

This was the first time i've heard Tiesto's Mix of Street Spirit (as i didn't want to hear the mp3 version that was floating after stealing the vinyl from Fijneman).It's great remix really,didn't expect Tiesto to still be able to make so good remixes (and that reminds me that his remixes are always better than his own productions,lol ).I've heard a version of his remix of Madonna - Die Another Day (Instrumental Mix???Don't remember) from a live-set and i remember that i didn't really like it.

There never was an MP3 release from the "stolen" (though, apparently, it was just lost) CD-R.

Am I the only one who totally disagrees with these two comments. Text book trance structure? I think the structure of the two song s are far from textbook. Cheesy? wtf?!

Anyway I only picked myself up 2 copies of this release, so don't worry there is still lots to go around.

1. It was a CDR out his CD bag
2. He found it again at his home.. so it wasn't stolen.

i agree

the only thing formulaic about these is that tiesto is treading old ground picking (or being chosen) to remix those 2 songs in the first place. Updating an already solid version of street spirit.. and also providing a remix to a madonna track *cough* Oakey *cough*

other than that - there is the familiar 'just be' squelchy sound on both tracks i think. Something that unless u are Tiesto and play Just Be songs in every set... is NOT formulaic.

How can anybody post a comment in this thread saying 'i didnt hear it yet' when Tijs hammered both of these to death (at the end of 2002 and mid-2003 respectively) is just beyond me...
