Should Pau van Dyk do another Politics of Dancing?

im interested to know what you all think because i LOOOOOVE the 1st one, i wonder if he would do another?

he is about to start work on the second one quite soon

Politics of Dancing 2? Whats the point? Does it matter what its called or whats contained in the cd?

If it's anything like the first one, I will be stoked. I think he has gone downhill a bit since POD, but another true mix cd could turn that around. I guess we'll have to wait 6-12 months to find out, as I'm sure he will be producing, remixing and putting the set together again.

yeh i dont know if the name is going to be the same 'TPOD', although i suspect it will be, should be good for the marketing

anyway, the concept will be the same i think, although perhaps it will be recorded in surround sound or something like that.

I think the last actual mix CD he did was the one for the Aug. 2003 Mixmag issue. That mix was mint. No PVD productions at all. Loved every track on it. Anobody else pick that up.

that mix was pretty bad - it was just a giveaway in a magazine though, it wasnt really a proper project like TPOD is, so you cant really compare...

I wasn't comparing it to POD, I was just pointing it out. As long as he makes a mix with none of his productions on it, or atleast the ones he hasn't played to death, I'm good.

well then TPOD wont be for you, he produces everything on it.

The first TPOD is good but I think he should get more creative and do something a little bit different.

Uhhh, no he doesn't. There's one track on the original that he produced

i think maybe the concept of the album has escaped you

he takes bunch of tracks and produces them all again

this is why people talk about it as a dj mix / remix album combination. Every track on it has been produced by Paul van Dyk.

Big difference between producing a track and remixing a track, I know he remixed the CD, but he didn't produce all of the tracks.

the tracks are actually just reworks of the original. the main hooks and other parts of the songs produced by the original artist remain (usually), but he might add new percussion or sounds to it to make it fit in the mix, and to give it that signature pvd feel. pretty much the same concept of what sasha was applauded for 'pioneering' on his involver mix cd . interesting to hear this though, im a big fan of pvd.

but doing a remix involves doing the production. He takes a part of a track, the melody, or a bassline or something, and then does all of the rest of the production, thats what the CD is about.

what? he was way ahead of the game on this one, sasha has just done the exact same thing with involver this year.

yes i understand, i was just pointing out to that guy, who 'doesnt like PvD productions' or whatever, that every single track on the cd has production done to it in some form by PvD. So its very strange what he said...

right on. any projected release date yet?

Yes, I know what the cd is about. What are even arguing about. Let's just say if this POD 2 comes out, it will be good.

no nothing, its just been mentioned a couple of times, he wont even have started to work on it yet... so theres still a lot to do. A project like this could take over a year between him deciding to do it and completion.

Never said i didn't like original PVD productions.

sorry ive got the wrong end of the stick, what is it that you dont like?

heh, produced all the tracks, he wishes. adding a hi-hat really is cutting edge production these days apparently. His boriginal productions are extremely weak post-2002 imo. He can have the title of Re-Edit master from me, if that is worht anything.

I just got a bad taste in my mouth after Reflections. I can't get enough of his older productions though. My favorites are Step Right On and My World, but he seems to have drifted away from that quality.
