Songs that sound better pitched way up, or way down.

Listening to Fanciulli's Renaissance 2 disc I instantly fell in love with Technasia - Evergreen (John Tejada Mix), went to buy it and realized the original BPM is a fair bit quicker than it is on the Renaissance disc, and I think it's way, way too fast, even if it isn't pitched down all that high.
So this got me thinking - have any of you noticed tunes that behave similarly? Where you have to pitch the out of them one way or the other to make them sound the way you'd like because you just don't like the way it sounds at it's normal BPM?

| I tend to pitch up a lot of old progressive house, because it often sounds a little too sluggish. It's probably because I'm acclimatised to prog starting at the 130 mark where back in the early 90s 130 was very fast for a lot of prog. Tracks that were designed to be energetic need speeding up a little to retain their energy. |

i'd like to add chab's 'tribute to bedrock' mix of kayama painters - wasteland. it's something like 127-8 originally but can work at almost 20bpm faster than that
as for slower, i'm going to say 95% of psy trance |

Simon & Shaker - NaCo
how this could be 120bpm is rediiculase. Should be at 127 at least. |

Well, immediately in my mind popped up two songs which I love being pitched up:
California Sunshine - Breaking Through
Etnica - Party Droid
Both on 155 BPM :eyes: ! |

Santiago Nino - Believe (Max Graham Remix)
sounds way more awesome when pitched up 5 bpm or so. |

I find a lot of goa (recent stuff especially) is far too high BPM.
Take Khetzal - Ganesha Pramana for instance and take it down from 180 to about 145bpm and you've got a savage track. |

I never really found the BPM to be a factor for me - a tune is a tune no matter how it's pitched.
The only problem I've ever had has been trying to match the wildly varying BPM's together while mixing, but... |

James Holden - Horizons (Original or Way Out West Remix)
Always thought it sounded better when pitched a tad bit faster.
oh, and Trentemoller - Physical Fraction needs to be pitched THE UP. Heard Sasha do this in a set of his, sooooooo massive. |

Soul Designer - Little Angel Sounds much better pitched down.
Karma - Beach Towel (I:cube's cosmix marathon mix) Sounds much better slightly pitched up. |

| although i do still love the tracks the way they normally are i like the way "cass & slide - perception" and "amoeba assassin - piledriver (grayed out mix)" sound pitched up... |

DJ Remy - Pumped Up
It is a crime to not pitch this track up. |
