Hammer & Bennett - Language

What a howling piece of vinyl. Three great tunes (with varying degrees of greatness) for the price of one. The Santiago Nino Dub Tech mix is quite obviously the tune to go for. Deep, dark bassline coupled with nice percussive elements sit well with the sublime top-end melody. The track is constructed of elements, that while they sound great on their own, they absolutely shine when combined. A masterpiece. The Elevation mix is pure and unadulterated deep prog trance, in the same style as Markus Schulz's production work of a couple of years ago. For want of a better term, this mix is 'trancier' than the Santiago Nino mix. Finally, we have the original, which is very good, but sounds too acoustic compared to the beasts of the remixes. It's interesting to see how the remixers changed the original from something good to something phenomenal.

Original and Elevation Remix are okay. But the Santiago Nino Dub Tech Mix is what this record is all about! Basically, Santiago took a dark, average and cold-sounding, progressive trance tune and turned it into a summer anthem! Everytime I hear it, I remeber some of the biggest personal events of that 2005 summer. If I was a DJ, I would still be hammering the Dub Tech Mix up to this day.
