easily forgettable track. i feel SvD did much better doing what he was doing before, even if it eventually became formulaic.

It works better when it's in the middle of a bangin' set, such as his Identity Mix November 2006.

Weakest tune I've heard from him IMO.

I'm not a big SVD fan - I'm not a fan at all actually, but I gave this one a shot, just as I have all his other productions, and was perhaps more disappointed than I've ever been by any of his tunes.

It sounded like it had some potential, the build between 2 and 3 minutes was nice, but when it just drops out like it does around 3:00 there's just a feeling of no real payoff what-so-ever. Basically for all the good elements of the track, the sequencing and complete lack of direction left me irritated that I'd wasted the 6 or so minutes it took to get through the 3 builds that went no where.

The "James Holden Wannabe" comment seems apt.

Heh, as much as I may not like his recent stuff, Punk'd made me a fan for life

This is a good start if this is the direction he wants to take, but when you compare it to people who have created this kind of music for a long time, it's not even in the same league. Its an okay tune, I don't think it sucks. But it is definitely a tune I would quickly pass knowing there is much more better while browsing for music.

Armin shouldn't be playing "stuff like this" on ASOT. Period.
