Nu-Nrg - Casino(incl. Stoneface & Terminal Mix) [Monster]

The italian duo serve up their latest offering on the very consistent Monster label. The Nu-Nrg vibe is very much there and fans should not be dissapointed.A very energetic release but somehow, not quite as energetic as some of their previous productions/remixes.
Henry & Matthias address this issue by delivering a MASSIVE and I mean MASSIVE remix. An absolute headfuking pounder with immense crossover potential. I expect the hard dance/NRG junkies to be taking bites out of this as well.
The final mix is by label boss, Brisky. Not much being done here. The bassline has been tweaked and a few fx have been added here and there. Importantly, the energy has been mantained uniformly throught all 3 mixes.
Altogether, a cracking energetic release.

Stoneface & Terminal Mix - 9/10 Sample
Original Mix - 7.5/10 Sample
Brisky Mix - 7.5/10 Sample

Release Date : 20 Feb 2006

First of all, I've never been a big fan of Casino and I was looking for a improvement of it by listening to the remixes.

Stoneface & Terminal remix is nothing but boring, I didn't find their remix of this track any good. Original mix isn't sounding good either, that's the one I've never liked. Brisky's remix sounded a little better then both the Original mix and the Stoneface & Terminal remix, It wasn't really good either, but alot more interesting than the other two.

Im kind of agreeing with zoric on this one.

The Original Mix is so flat and 2 dimensional, im very dissapointed with the Stoneface & Terminal Remix, especially after the stunning remix of Fred Baker Pres Iguana - Beautiful Sunshine, they just took that great track to a different level, but this remix seems a bit lazy

The Brisky Remix is a bit more listenable, more groovier with a little bit more beef (not much)

Poor release tbh

Nothing really stunning or even interesting for me. Everywhere's the same, booring thing, which I can't even classify as a good melo. Crap IMO...

does absolutelly nothing for me. i never really got into the original and the remixes arent all that great. i wish pvd would stop playing bad songs like this one.

Agreed with the above statements, this track is weak, its not like thier old work. Even the remixes arent so great.

These three tracks are nothnig but crap, nu nrg is really bad at the moment...I still haven't forgotten the massive Free Fall and Dreamland, why aren't they producing such tracks anymore, instead of suck fuc*ing crap????

Can't understand...

Why does everyone hate Casino?

I think it's a very fine track.

I hated Casino at first but then it grew on me. Havent heard the remixes yet, but I'll probobly get the original off Vonyc.

Well, It wouldn't be that bad if there hadn't been Freefall and Dreamland before, but the problem is that Casino is rather a Tech-Trance / Club track...
It may not be such a bad one in a party, but without melody a Trance track is NOT a genuine Tune, that's all...

boring tune :S

Sucks lol S&T remix almost did it but it didnt! 1/10 for whole vinyl

Verry boring tune

Totally agree with you two guys! This is just pure crap...nothing more, nothing less, these tracks do not even deserve to get a release.
And I really hate Stoneface & Terminal, useless producers, briging crap with any of their releases...

i like the original, hate the new remix

i appear to be in the minority too.. really like all three mixes (original, S&T & brisky), all really solid & full of energy. the buildup on the original especially is awesome

Hmm, you're amongst a minority, that's true...
To isoterra : However I really like your latest release "Essence" mate! Very nice tune, with a strong driving bassline, a sweet melody during the break and the peak. Problem is that melody tends to be a little bit cheesy in peak time...but except that everything's really fine!

uhm, i think this is the only nunrg tune i can't stand to

well opinions change,


This is kind of growing on me now after repeated listens, just gotta love those sweeping acid lines

This dosnt sound a million miles away from Paul Van Dyk's unrealesed track 'Working or Avid City' or whatever its called.

Yup. Brisky; and that's it.

tried listening to the original and the remixes a few times but it never really grew on me. thumbs down.

Original Mix = Tune!

I freaking LOVE this track!! Jus tpickedit up yesterday, it's crazy good! I don't understand how most people here dislike it so much... I mean... it even sounded good on my laptop speakers

Nu NRG - Casino = CHOOOON
