Jon Hopkins - Light Through The Veins (this track is unbelievable)

I took a chance on this record since it was on sale for 4 bucks. I wasnt able to sample it at the time but I remember someone posting about it a couple months ago.

When that sad piano comes in at 7 minutes it floors me. Was listening to this with breakfast just now and I'm just astounded at how good this song is.

...and why Coldplay used it for their track 'Life In Technicolor'.
Great deal for $4 for the record btw.

Is this from Insides? It actually sounds quite nice, although definitely not very original and already heard before.

Hopkins is usually mediocre as hell. I've heard his first two albums and they sound like a ripoff of every ambient/downtempo release that appeared before them.

The Ewan Pearson Remix is brilliant. Check it.

what the hell are you on about hopkins is awesome.

as for this tune, light through the veins, very standard. Honestly I just find this song to be pretty bland.
