Sasha Vs Underworld - Cowpander

Quality track just out, love it, a great bootleg by Junkie XL

11.12mins long

R Info

As played by Sasha to close his sets over
the last twelve months this fuses Sasha's
monumental progressive anthem 'Xpander'
with Underworld's equally anthemic
'Cowgirl'. Rumoured to be done by long
time Sasha collaborator Tom Holkenborg
(aka Junkie XL), it's more of a re-edited
bootleg as a few extra sweeps have been
added and a few more drops to bring out
the best from the vocal

9/10 for me

What does everyone think of the track?

I've heard both originals and I have to say this is just ok. It's a good song mind you, but I won't go and delete my originals. The build up is too long and the vocals are kinda weird. It's a keeper, but I won't be putting it on loop for hours on.

I really do dig this track, but I'm opposed to buy the bootleg because the track was originally a birthday present from junkie xl to sasha and it should of stayed that way imo.

for me, it just added new life to an old classic...but thas what the originals are...classics...

I didn't know you could just "delete" vinyls or CDs.

maybe he lives in his virtual world and never had a vinyl in his hands...

This is trash... I hate those vocals and they completely ruin the original. I'm a bit surprised that Sasha still keeps on caning this. It's also pretty lame that they release this bootleg which was never meant to be a proper release...

sasha killed the song by playing it too much

also it got bootlegged...and was never supposed to see a release

xpander is still tops.

I love this tune! It almost killed me when Sasha played it at Nature One!

I don't see the point of this
those vocals add absolutely nothing to the track IMO

I actually saw it at the local vinyl store today, and I almost picked it up. I like it, but when I think about it the vocals don't really add anything to it. It'd be nice to have, but it is a bootleg, and since I already have the Xpander EP I didn't think it'd be worth the $10 for nearly the same song. I definitely like the tune though.

This blends into the background for me with all of the other Xpander bootlegs, it's not a bad addition for a change of pace, but I still think the original mix is untoppable.

well the point was to give Sasha a nice birthday present that only he would have, but now thats ruined.

being both a Sasha and Underworld fan...i like the tune, but its a shame about the bootleg.

How many copies are there of the bootleg?

Posted by sektile on Sep-06-2003 20:24:

Posted by DR-COKE on Sep-06-2003 20:25:

I prefer the originals.. and well it's a shame that it got bootlegged in the first place

Posted by Trancer-X on Oct-29-2003 19:49:
