Chicane - poppiholla, remix of the classic hoppiholla

Do you any of you like this. I think its ok, he hasnt messed with the essence of the song too much. Most people ive spoken to think its dire and that the original should never be touched!
What are you opinions?

I really like the new Chicane single. Sounds like a song I could listen to in the day, but not in the night.

The disco citizens remix is great but I really don't like the breakdown. It's too heavy.

But yes the original is great. I hope to hear more Chicane tracks in the future.

in all honesty, the original shouldn't be touched, but in this day & age someone is going to. Years ago, Chicane would've been ideal. This isn't bad but imagine if it was done in the saltwater/halcyon/offshore era. Would've been way better

It's called "Hopp�polla", and it's not "the classic", it's from four years ago.

The Chicane thing is absolute garbage. To take a chunk of someone else's music and add some worthless dance production work, release it as a single and make a lot of fuzz about it, that's just wow, not tasteful.

No joke. Do people think that by calling the track they remixed a "classic" they can get more publicity for their own lackluster version of the original?

In general ASOT lovers will like it, ASOT haters will hate it.
Like mentioned a while ago in another thread I like it a lot. Nothing classic about the original, except that it has a sound that people think it could be a classic.

What sound exactly makes people think a track could be a classic?

A classic of what?

I think it's a nice tune.

I don't know where I'm going with this post.

When I heard the original I thought it was much older than it actually was. I have heard it many times not realizing of what date it was (even didn't knew its name).
If someone told me it was from the 80's I would have believed it. That's why IMO people think it could be a classic, but it just isn't.

That sounds completely arbitrary.
