pfft... *insert me pretending to whine here*
As much as i love underworld (i hold them on higher ground than i did my girlfriend who was a gymnast) i'm really quite happy that they didn't release this. I'm tired of everyone and their dog getting the 'newest thing', especially from such a well respected group as underworld, then trying to learn how to be a DJ and then destroying what was a perfectly good, yet hard-to-find track.
Underworld has put some pretty damn sweet stuff out and barely gotten any recognition for it. I mean who here knows 'cherry pie'? off the Pearl's Girl EP. But all of a sudden something off of a full-length comes out, (in this case, 'came out quite a while ago') and everyone's jumping all over it. The fact that it's a kickass mix AND it's hard to find is what makes it all the better.
I'll still hold to the fact that my highlight of three-day, this year (wemf) was when Robb G dropped said remix and knocked me flat on my ass. I went off and loved every second of it. If we all have those sorts of memories, the one thing that ends up ruining them for us is when a worse DJ plays it at a worse time. Nobody wants to lose something that good. (again, like a girlfriend who was a gymnast)

They're good, what I like about them is that they keep most of the parts from the original, just giving them a fresher beat, instead of ruining it by taking away loads of stuff

Atomic Hooligan is not new to the scene...it's a duo that has been in the breaks scene since 1994. Atomic Hooligan is Matt Welch and Terry Ryan and they do breaks and some hip hop I believe but they are not new.

Rez is a monster track, and this new breaks mix manages to breathe some fresh life into, definitely digging on this remix!

I'm a huge Underworld fan, so I grabbed this white label without thinking twice.
