yeh it can be quite troublesome with that clacky sounding intro....but its good for an opening tune
The hardest tune to mix in my collection is Shy Brothers - Nemesis..
Damn impossible!

The drums turn into a big mess towards the end and it's just a nightmare to mix anything into that.
for sure.....you have to wait till that phase is over....plus the dominant high hat seems a bit delayed

I find most of the Early Lab 4 tunes to be a bugger to mix. Partly because they have their own sound and partly because Ithey make them like that on purpose. Actually It's more than likely because I can't mix for toffee. Someone spat some toffee on my decks once when I was mixing. "Haha, " they said "You can't mix for toffee" as the needle jumped into the label. "Your mum sleeps with video recorders." I said. He pulled my headphone jack out and shoved it in my mouth.
I just had to share that with you
yeah, i hate it when people spit toffee on the decks...
