Originally posted by Bemps I really like Kaleidoscope and the breaks remix of Nothing but You, and the samples of Bueneventura (reflections vinyl remix) sound ace. I'm going to buy this pronto. Does anyone know if it will be released on 3xlp or more, or just the 2xlp ?

Just two sir. .. And I really hope Like A Friend (Vandit Club Mix)

is as good as the PvD remix. That tune was a real gem.

I thoguht Paul would be less lazy and actually make a remix of this. the slacker just extended the intro and added a shittty outro ? this is bad. :S NBY Berlin Mix// alredy had this from the member page. not really to keen on it. I need the original, it is the best! Reflections Club Mix// kinda cheesy / annoying. Do not like either. xxx arturo

Ah Arturo its good to see some honest non-bias PVD reviews from you these days. I have to agree with you on every comment you said.

You trait0r... get out of here :P. You don't deserve PvD's name

even remotely associated with yours. I'm the official groupie

now :P. Overall, this sampler 0wns. Favorite tunes consist of:

01. Buenaventura (Reflections Vinyl Remix)

03. That's Life (PvD Mix) (Although I thought the album version was MUCH MUCH better)

04. Reflections (Club Mix) (My favorite track on teh sampler)

05. Nothing But You (Berlin Mix) (Sick breaks mix... way better than cirrus')

06. Kaleidoscope (Vinyl Mix) (Mad relaxing tune... gets b0ring after awhile *yawnnnnnnnnnnnn*)

08. Like A Friend (Vandit Club Mix)

I now have the phrase *OMFG PvD* and/or *AWWWW PvD* patented... so

if any of you decide to use it, i'll have to take legal measures

against you :P.

.. /reZ ..

wtf are you on the breaks in berlin mix are so basic its even hard to call it a breaks mix..

the cirrus remix however was a true masterpiece in all aspects. Intresting breaks, very well implemented vocals, effects.. the whole atmosphere in the mix is what made it the best tune on NBY 12" for me.


berlin mix: 5/10
cirrus mix: 9/10

and about the vinyl sampler: Im really dissapointed.. I agree with almost everything arturo said, but I dont really like the bueanaventura remix too.. its nice to have kaleidoscope on vinyl though... but all the tracks sound very basic to my ear.. I mean he couldhave easily made them in 1998. Talk about progression as an artist, eh? and why oh why wasnt spellbound on? I think its going to be the next release and he didnt put it on so ppl would still buy that one too..

You're the first person I've come across who's had a postive take on

Cirrus' Break remix. I honestly feel that it's just as basic, if not

MORE basic than PvD's Berlin mix. I do, however, agree that

Spellbound should have been included in the 2x12". And what's up

with the Original version of "That's Life" not being included? The

vocals and synths were structured in a much better fashion than the

PvD mix. The synths were intoxicating, it was one of the tracks I

had on heavy rotation while listening to Reflections. Oh well,

we should have discovered this a long time ago by now: PvD DOES NOT

CARE about what his fans think should be incorporated in his music

packages.

Just my take on things..

Buenaventura and That's Life are both fantastic. The rest are a bit shit tho. And I wanna know what has happened to the "Tougher Mix" of Kaleidoscope that was listed on pvd.de for like a day. Also no PvD - Working either. Whole sampler is a bit shit really. nevermind. Hopefully after PvD has helped out Jan with her album we'll get some good remixes from him, which imo is what he does best.

That's Life is a nice track... I haven't given any of Paul's work a listen until this sampler. Some decent stuff on there, to my surprise

No, I'm not aplz.

Listening to the CD version, identical except mixed in...

its fucking mint, go out and find it and buy it

-from a pvd fan that thought Reflections was the best album




but seriously, go get it. Great stuff. Don't know why people didn't like Reflections.


BTW, gonna buy it if it ever comes over to the US (which I think it is)


Listening to TOOL now:

WTF WHAT HAPPENED TO THE VOLUME OF THE GUITAR RIFF???
so freakin low!
i like the one in the sets better, or is it because mine is the CD version?
