LoStep's remix is what is interesting here. This was released around the time that "progressive breaks" came on the scene, and a new batch of progressive producers made names for themselves cutting their teeth with tracks like this. I've played this track on and off ever since I picked it up, and it's always gotten an great reaction.
The track starts off high energy with a pretty typical structure and vocal hook that could have been off a late-90s trance piece. But then the breakdown comes. This is the real start of the track for me. LoStep takes the vocals, cuts them up every which way, and then layers them in with all sorts of speed effects and and other psychedelic goodness.
This is a great record to end a great evening. The track slowly decays into an almost sad ambient mood, with pads taking over as the vocal cuts are slowly de-emphasized. One of my favorite mixes of all time was into Jakatta - American Dream (Afterlife Remix) - it takes the slightly sad tone and turns it into a sun-rise morning.
