Well, the fact that he had to shut down "Low Spirit" could have been a chance for him to deliver a good re-start, especially after the last, dreadful Electro-Trash-Clash years 2005-2006. But no. He seems to have lost it completely: ideas, innovation, passion. The idea of playing with dubplates is certainly nice, but not for an entire DJ-Set! The tracklistings are boring as hell, and his Serial Funk tunes are, sorry, nothing but an impudence. I am really, really disappointed.

Concerning his reputation here in Germany: I think his Bass Planet Partys are still doing quite well in and around Berlin; but as someone mentioned earlier in this thread: I have the impression that the young kids do not know anything about the work and effort he put into the scene during the past two decades. Really sad.

BUT HEY: If his next tune is good, I'll be the first to buy it So, show us what you can do, Mr. Westbam. Please. We know you can.

I think you right, guys. But what about "We Bam" release? "A Classic" is not a bad track. Looks like other old Westbam's releases. "Bass Planet" is also good tune, but we know what it's a remake of Members of Mayday track "Bass Line" from single "Day X".
I think what every music producer or DJ has crisis time in his life. And I hope Westbam will return to the top with new ideas in music and mixing.

Sorry for my english, guys.

Westbam, you can!

The truth is out there...

A Classic is a good track, but still worse than his past production. The point is, that the man like westbam, with his experiences, should produce much better tracks like WeBam & Serial Funk. I bought many records like Right On, Oldschool Baby, Beatbox Rocker,... They were all something special. I played them also on parties and people somehow like them. But now wouldn't dare to play his new production, because people would fall asleep :/. I hope we can expect some better production in the future, not just remakes and mashups from 5 other tracks!

ps. I still remember his gig at Mayday 2001, when he played a special track, made of Westbam & Paul van Dyk. There was a female vocal... "west..bam....west...bam..." Since I remember, It has never been released. But anyway, did anyone actually find that track somewhere?

I think it's a "Westbam - Bam Bam Bam (Paul van Dyk Rework for Westbam's Birthday)" from Paul van Dyk - Live at Mayday 2001 (30.04.2001).

No.

How do you think, could we to write a message to Paul van Dyk to release that remix?

Yeah, that would be very nice if Paul decides to realise some of his reworks, but I`m pretty sure that will not happen. He has a lot of good his reworks/remixes.

Any clues what it might be? Vocals are confusing me, it seems to be:

'i know radio, radio to go'
'i know radio, ready to go'
'i know radio, ready to flow'

Help?

I don't remember that track at all... in which mayday 2003 set was it? And I wouldn't be surprised if this is a Pink. Remix of her track of course
