Drix Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 I know.. wanted to give it a go, but paying for stems put me of. Not that it's expensive, but still..

awepittance Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 i wonder why Underworld couldnt just post the parts for free on their own website?

chassis Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 I find it offensive that theyre charging for it. They want you to pay to remix their track? Id understand if it was like $1 so as to stop just anyone downloading them and taking up bandwidth. But ffs.

Guest maus Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 and i'll parrot what i've said for any of these: a remix competition based on "votes" is meaningless. bypass the remix part, guys. just give $1000 to the person that drives the most traffic to your site. save everyone the effort.

mcbpete Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 It's a bit mwuh , I mean it's technically well made don't get me wrong - there's a lot going on and it's well produced. It's just that I found the thing a little too clinical and with not enough raw energy in it. Actually that's a similar issue I've had with all Underworld's output post Beaucoup Fish - I mean I like the albums sure, they're just not that 'epic' sounding any more. It's like they've run out of steam and can't face doing anything in your face sounding. Even their most 'intense' track on their latest album (Scribble) is a far cry from something like Kittens, Pearl's Girl or Cowgirl....

Braintree Posted December 7, 2010 Report Share Posted December 7, 2010 I honestly thought that remix was looping the same parts over and over. Too long and repetitive.
