I prefered the more minimal version Damian Lazarus played on Kiss100 half a year ago.

It's OK, but honestly compared to much of Charlie/Duncan/Sasha's earlier work it just feels bush-league.

Imo it's up there with the best, and they haven't really done anything that sounds like it before. I love that haunting melody, all the reverberation and that big wall of noise, it's just awe-inspiring.

Now i understand it may not be everyones favorite track, but one has to acknowledge it's a track with substance, unlike Park It In The Shade. :cool:

Spot on.

Like everything I've heard from Sasha and Digweed lately, the talent and production is there, but something is missing.

Reminds me of how I felt when I first heard Warung Beach.

A. Versions that appear in sets that aren't remotely close to the actual release.




I'm still trying to figure out which vastly different versions you guys have been hearing in sets. As far as I can tell, at least for Sasha, he's been pretty much playing the tracks as they are with only minor intro/outro/buildup looping that he usually enjoys doing with ableton...the version of Mongoose and Park It In The Shade found in the Bonnaroo set are exactly like the released ones...


In any case, these tracks I think are ok, to call them horrible is a bit of a stretch, I'd reserve that for 90% of the coming out on beatport right now. Mongoose, at least, goes places and has a fun bassline.

The thing is, not only have all of them been canned to death by their creators (and those guys' friends), but I would have had trouble fitting them in with the rest of my music anyway...so at this point I doubt I'll ever play any of them.


Also, some info straight from Three, he said the version of his dub of COMA that got leaked was not mastered, and a much better sounding, fully mastered version is due out on emfire (digital + vinyl) in January...

This track is quite good but definitely not better than Coma in my opinion. I have bought all the emFire releases and I have to say that Park it in the Shade was my least favorite of the three.

This track is fantastic! One of my top10 this year.:)

I just took a listen and I don't see why the track is all that. Too much processing, effects, blips and bleeps, with not enough soul or emotion.

It's like progressive for robots.
