Northern Lights...nice instrumental track. Also check out Matt Hardwick & Smith & Pledger - Day One, with the Above & Beyond Remix. It was an amazing track back in 2003....wish there were more tracks like this nowadays. They have "Connected" too, but IMO "Day One" is better, maybe because I prefer instrumentals, but the vocals in "Connected" aren't as good as in "Forever".

And I do think it's stupid to complain about something that is actually helpful. Not every DJ has the time to find the exact BPM of every record by ear or some software program. I would have thought they would do this a long time ago, when beatmixing got to be more prevalent.

Originally posted by Zoso I noticed this on my copy of Smith & Pledger - White/Black. Sure, it's easy to say, "Oh, they are making this too easy for the noobs with the BPM printed, etc." However, suppose I open my set with a track that is not at 138BPM (like White/Black). I still have to match my beats later on when I work in the track with the stated BPM. And even if I did nothing but spin every record with the same BPM, I have to cue and phrase properly, or my set will sound like holy hell.
