James Holden - Horizons

Not to be confused with SILVER024, this was released in 2006 to celebrate 10 years of Silver Planet Recordings. Way Out West provide their previously unrelased DUB on this re-issue. The only difference is cutting out the piano from their main remix that was relased on Incredible Records. This is the version that Nick Warren used during his live DJ sets and I heard him play it at Amnesia in Ibiza. This Dub is also played by Max Graham on his Cream mix CD. You decide if you prefer more piano on the remix or less on the dub but its a nice alternative.

A definitive classic in progressive house history that opened the road for James Holden. Written in 1999, on the most basic music software and a cheap computer, it proves that you don't always need high grade equipment to make stand out material.

A classic cut from James Holden (Silver Planet Records). "Horizons" is full of floor friendly beats an a killer melody. Flip for the Way Out West (Distinctive Records "The Fall"/"Domination" Fame) mix, where Nick and Jody add their twist.

This is obviously fantastic if you like melodic, deep trance, but I think this is cut way too fast. You really need to pitch it down a bit, it sounds much better. Well, it does to me anyway. Or maybe I just have a dodgy copy.
Way Out West just bang out a club-friendly mix on the flip, but as it's Way Out West, it is rather good.
