Review by budnik Sep 05, 2007

referencing The Launch, 12", 12 AMPM 123

Here its all about the Yomanda remix, Yomanda had a great year in 1999 and had a fantastically bouncy, hard but very funky sound. He keeps the main elements - the riff and the instantly recognizable countdown samples. But the drop after the first break is absolutely kicking, the "5,4,3,2,1 ignition" builds the breakdown to snapping point. The bassline then drops and is so groovy, rolling, and so funky. This destroys dancefloors blowing them up. I have had many a good night to the Yomanda mix of this.

Its not big or clever, but boy does it do its job. I recently, for my sins, went to a Luminar club not long ago on a mates stag do, this was played and it even got the floor there moving. Top stuff. The other mixes are boring really. Quite flat. Always head for the Yomanda remix. I still say this is Yomanda's best production.
Rated 4/5

"Get ready for the launch...5...4...3...2...1". Classic trance anthem with that infectious hook. The remixes keep the best elements of the original and take it to the next level. It's more of a club/radio track but it's worth a listen/purchase when you're doing a classics mix.
