Vercetti - In Control / Skimmer EP

Langes new productions under his Vercetti Alias. Got this on Promo CDr from Lange Recordings this morning and its sweet . In Control has been played by Tiesto a few times in recent sets and im sure ive heard Skimmer somewhere before

8/10 for both, and 9/10 for giving an EP where i like both tracks

Can't wait to hear these two, Lange never fails.

Posted by swisstoni_uk on Oct-10-2004 13:18:

I heard on In Control on TATW a few days ago, very nice indeed. Hopefully it comes out soon, I hate waiting

By far not the best Lange tune!

I think that 'In Control' has a build-up that just takes too long before something really special happens! When the main melody comes on it seems to be a fine track Just a shame about the build-up!

Don't know about 'Skimmer', ... the title sure is original

Posted by Joca on Oct-13-2004 05:26:

Besides the standard Lange bassline, I find in control to be rather refreshing. It's not a massive anthem but I like it.

In Control 7.5/10
Skimmer 8.5/10

Skimmer is one of the better tunes i've heard this year, great melodies and a nice sublte build up that explodes when the kick comes back in. I like the structure of the track as well.

I really like them both, good at different times. Def. has a Lange type feel to it.. :P

Posted by jcosgrove on Oct-13-2004 06:46:

not really keen on this one - i used to be a big lange fan too :S

Posted by MichaelBoogerd! on Oct-13-2004 15:23:

what is bland to some people is bizarre to me.

These tunes show a coming of age of Lange i believe.

The things like Sincere and Sincere For You were a crock of shit compared to this deep stuff.

Its about time there was a good english producer who dabbled a bit on the darker techy side of trance and looks like Lange is stepping up.

Well done Tiesto for picking it up already as well. Its been played on ASOT too though.. which probably means saturation and 10000000 people saying how crap it is.

In Control is a great choon with some really nice 303 innit. Skimmer isnt something special imo.

In Control 9/10
Skimmer 7/10

Will be in my next order for sure!!!!

His point might have been that Skimmer is just barely better. Think instead of flaming.

On topic, I don't find any of these that great, I'd say 6/10 as well.

In Control 9/10
Skimmer 6/10
IMO

Posted by DJ_Audun on Oct-28-2004 17:26:

In Control owns Skimmer. I'm really diggin' the bassline. Good to see that Lange is trying something new.

looooooooool

Posted by Phortastic on Oct-28-2004 19:49:

Both very nice tunes imo!!
Great to see Lange doing something different!
Thumbs up Lange!

i like in control. it's a bit fluffy but it fits well with the rest of the techy vibe

Posted by clubsolutely on Oct-29-2004 13:21:

tunes very low imo...
dunno where lange have gone after the awesome "intercity " and "believe 2003"

There were some great productions by him after these 2 tunes:

-Firewall -Kilimanjaro
-Empyreal Sun -From Dark To Light (Lange RMX)
-Thrillseekers -New Life (Lange RMX)
-Jas Van Houten -Loco Love (Firewall RMX)

Only 'Sincere For You' was a little bit weaker, but the above ones were all fantastic!!!!

very very good production 9/10

Agree 100%.

Meleody is very unorginal. Nothing intersting to really grab my attention.

4/10

Huge Lange fan here, yet I don't really care for these two...Often skip over these tracks in favour of others...

Lange's playlists recently have had a techi-trance vibe to em...maybe signs of things to come

Heard in control at TIC2 last friday... umg i went crazy!
