Dumonde - Cold

Available also at http://www.juno.co.uk.Here are the direct links of the samples
Dumonde - Cold (Original Mix)
Dumonde - Cold (Dub Mix)

Original Mix is not so good,basically cause of these horrible vocals.The Dub Mix on the other hand is pretty good (thnk God it's Dub,lol ) with a nice melody.Check it out

They haven't been releasing anything good for awhile (Symsonic remix is great but I can't think of anything I've liked from them recently). Perhaps their signature sound has become played out. I'd love to hear something new from them comparable to 'never look back.'

i really enjoyed Atmosphere, but yeah i think theyve lost their signature sound. the only thing they keep the same is their bassline. they havent had any new remixes in sooo long. oh well. maybe one day.

As would I, never look back is a hard trance classic imo

melody kinda sounds weak but wont judge til i hear the full version.


Posted by EriK_V on May-28-2004 04:54:

sounds similar in style to 'god music". not too bad. melody is so so.


Posted by neoraver on May-28-2004 07:08:

DuMonde isn't hard trance. Maybe some of their other aliases are, but not DuMonde

This doesn't even compare to God Music. That, in my opinion, is their best production. And not very 'hard' either.

imo 'God Music' was thier most popular tune, thier best is 'Human' for sure


Posted by Nautilus on May-31-2004 07:43:

Memory is their best tune, Original Vocal that is.

Cold is ok, but I'm just glad to see they're still producing.

You gotta be kidding, God Music was their weakest production as of yet under the Dumonde alias. Cheesy voice in the break, awful main riff and the rest was just another reshuffle of the same beaten to death Dumonde elements. And the Cosmic Gate remix, oh dear...

I'd say DuMonde are borderline hard trance, although there's a hard trance remix of Human (I think it's by Lee Haslam) that is massive.

And to whoever posted that sample, it's a load of shit.


Posted by fridge_xxxx on Jun-08-2004 10:45:

i think is a good track but for me the best dumonde release is see the light

If you think that the CG Remix was good, you'll have to excuse me while I piss myself laughing.

Then why do people say Dave 202 & Phil Green are hard trance? In my opinion, they don't sound nearly as hard as Dumonde.


They used to be hard trance. Check out their track At The End (Hard At The End Mix), a good example of just that. I agree that their recent productions have gone over to more bog standard epic trance though.

Fuck yea! Now this is the DuMonde I remember. The ones which brought shivers down my spine and tears drops to my eyes! I had just about given up on them as producers until I heard this. Brillant I say, absolutely brillant! I especially favour the Talla 2XLC and Dub mixes. I still have yet to listen to the X900 remix. 9/10.

Talla 2XLC and X900 remix sucks. They should just leave a great tune alone, or else they'll hurt the reputation of it.

You need a taste of hard trance.

Oh my Lord...

It sounds ok up until the break comes in. First the fucking cheesy spoken word (with an obvious german accent) and then the melody... the melody... oh my god...

It's... it's... terrible!


Posted by kr00t0n on Jul-03-2004 15:20:

Dumonde havent had a decent track since Memory.

God Music was AWFUL, how bad can vocals be???

Their older stuff like the Missed Beat remix (best imo), Binary Finary 2000, Never look Back, On The Move remix (even this is better than the more recent stuff) and Can't Keep Me Silent is FAR superior to the wank that is today's dumonde productions.

Thank god Flutlicht didn't try and milk for as long, they finished on a high point with very few poo work in their history.

My nigga Mystery, you need to hear the Dub mix! Then, maybe then, you might have a change of heart


Posted by DeviantxPete on Jul-03-2004 19:01:

The melody is catchy, but I was hoping they would use a different riff/effect/synth/whatever.

But that horrible lead is still there.
