Makai ‎– Beneath The Mask / Polaris

It’s my estimation that this record is rather over-wanted considering the shorter mix of Beneath The Mask is in many ways inferior to its longer counterpart on the Millennium CD. Not only does the 12:33 mix include more content, it’s far better organized. Essentially, the song is divided into two equal six minute segments, the latter being infused with the infamous Ghost In The Shell sample and concluding with a sublime stuttering of the beat. I suppose the lack of variety makes the shorter version more mixable, but that quality alone hardly makes this record more desirable.
