Review by narsti Mar 20, 2008
There are two versions of this landmark 'Nu-Skool' breaks track.

This one and the version on BT's album 'Movement In Still Life'

Each version is significantly different. Production wise this version, with Adam Freeland more influential on the production is simpler. It has a raw sound that highlights all the best bits of the track. Perfect for breaks heads. However the album version is more focused on the programming and sounds cleaner, it's a bit more 'whizz-bang'.

Either way, which ever version you prefer, still a classic track.
Rated 4/5

Cool track, really gets interesting when it gets into the crazy edit business about 2/3s of the way through.

I would consider BT's input to be pretty significant myself. The extremely high standard of the production and synth work bears all his hallmarks.

This is THE 'nu-skool' (or whatever) breaks track. Epic, progressive, noisy, squelchy, bleepy, robotic, fat, noisy and crazily danceable. My head span 720 degrees on my shoulders the first time I heard this. Still think it's one of the coolest tracks I've ever heard. I doubt very much that BT had any real input into it because it's far too good for him.
