Ok despite a lot of people moaning about this tune in typical TA style, I like it. I've been trying to find on vinyl/CD/download-store all the old tracks that I used to like and download from hubs/Audiogalaxy/etc back in the day. (Hey, its only fair)

The 3rd Earth has got me stumped.

Obviously its available in the download stores and on Discogs, with versions of the original mix with times of 8m55s, 8m43s, 10m08s and 10m05s. Again, you'd look for the longest version generally.


The version I have is 11m17s.


This version that I have I think has a slightly longer build up after the breakdown and the melody doesn't come in for a bit longer than in the 8 or 10m versions, I'm not sure. (Im not buying an 8 or 10 minute version to find out). IIRC it was leaked off a promo CD by a member of one of the old ripping groups (to much OMG back then from everyone).

IMO the pacing of the 11m17 version is far better than the other versions, they all seem rushed.

Anyone know if this longest version ever got a proper release or is available floating about on some promo CDs somewhere? What was the deal with it being cut for release?

Thanks.

Edit: The 11m17 rip is definitely CD/digital as theres no vinyl noise in the rip at all.

You probably have a promo copy that got given to a few dj's before the final copy hit the shelves. Happens to tons of tracks.

interesting. wasn't this also the song that had to change the sample they used because of licensing issues or something along those lines?

where did you get your version from chris (which download site)?

I dont think they had to change the sample (which was good). I really have no idea where I got it from, it must have been the old DC Hub (EMC?) or one of those, I cant remember.

I just saw that on a Gatecrasher cd it is labeled as an "Extended mix." Again, could be a promotional copy or just something that someone else did at home and through it on a hub for other people to download.

Te vinyl version i have is 11:22.

Nice track anywhoo.

Nice one, that must be the one.

Which release do you have and is it on Discogs?

This the one released on ID&T? I have this one as well, just never took the time to figure out how long it ran.

This is the ID&T release on Discogs ->

It's a htfr dodgy white so don't actually know lol.


btw, its the backing music for the snooker world championshiops.

ah. Knowing HTFR I'm afraid to say I'll bet they pressed this leak to vinyl. Worth recording it as a .wav to the computer and seeing if the waveform of the file is mp3 compressed. I'll bet they did, as HTFR are generally bastards
