I've always been "almost sold" on Pig & Dan. They've got clear talent, but I can't shake the impression that they don't try hard enough.

They seem like they work real hard at what they do.

Check out a lot of their older productions. I have a ton of it on vinyl, fantastic stuff.

fuck yes. pig & dan have been my favorite producers for a while now. I fucking love sly detector, their remixes of horizon, g. platz, on the line,dramatical and beautiful burnout and i love their track imagine. I heard they are pretty sick live as well.

Originally posted by EvilTree More I listen to their productions and sets, more I'm impressed. Doing everything from deep to prog to tech house, such wide variety of genres, yet come up with lots of gold. Right now really digging their remix of Beautiful Burnout

Beautiful track - just bought it; plan on dropping it at a gig tonight.

I know that Proper Education has been discussed to death, but of all the mixes of that tune that came out, I thought theirs was head and shoulders above the rest..

appreciated.

Originally posted by siastyle Okay iv hurd the Album and lemmi tell you guyz.... Tiesto is gono make it back to the top again with these hits. The thing about it is that hes trying 2 bring a new style tho just like he did with Just be and it worked. they songs areunt TOO HIGHT up. but the vocals acaully are the best thing in 2007. The Track Carpe Noctum is like traffic but it hink he could of prefected the shit ouf it. but generalllyy its an amazing album...oh and Ten Seconds Before Sunrise is like Forever today TIMES 12

Ironically, I think a lot of their older tracks would fit in better today with recent mixes of minimal and tech-house.

Their recent stuff has moments are greatness, but sometimes when they 'try' to be minimal (releases on Cocoon, etc) it comes off less interesting.

That pretty much sums them up for me.

Pig & Dan - Magic Valley

Pig & Dan are awesome.

And yes, they are.

And their remix of "Beautiful Burnout" is good - but would be great if it actually had an end to it instead of just dropping into "kick-snare" nonsense.

Other than that, the boys are all class.

I think I've heard dozens of tracks by them that are "solid"/"playable", but hardly ever one really stands out as a great track. My personal fav is Mongloid, from a couple years ago, now that was above-average.

I remember when that track came out, they were literally shitting out one good release per week. Just never great releases.
