Well I don't know about you, but it's been too long since I heard a track from these guys and.. well... it hasn't even really been that long! Always sure to deliver, with anthems such as 'Don't Hold Back The Music', they once again team up, sit down, knock heads and give us this.....


----------------------
145 Bugged Mix

You just know as soon as you put needle to vinyl that if these guys are on the sleeve you pulled it from, then you're in for a treat. With no exception here it smacks it from the word go. Pounding kicks filter in with crisp hi-hats and crunchy percussion, layering on top of a grinding bass and pulsing leads! Swarming pads and atmospherics send a chill of glorious energy rushing down your spine, whilst insane filtered synths and acid lines supply the frenzy and mayhem to boot. With a superb vocal, this track really does live up to it's punk rocking namesake! If you was growing tired of the sound of todays scene, then I think these boys have certainly found the direction it will be going!!


----------------------
Original Mix

It would be wrong to say that this mix is the more laid back of the two. It may not be as instantly in your face, but it's certainly got it all where it counts! For the Original Mix the lads have gone for something that can only be described as "Underworld Vs Hard Dance". Stomping kicks once again, backed up with the superb percussion and hi-hat patterns that you're just gonna expect, but this time we're treated to a more resonant and funky bass that just oozes groove! Acid lines are in complex and tantalising abundance and backed up with crazy fx, ever rising synths and.. oh yes.. that vocal.. this baby is gonna have you bouncing off the walls like a blind ping pong tournament!! Noiice!

prefer the bugged mix - it's well different! i like it! u can drop it anywhere in your sets cos it even sounds good at minus 3 on the pitch which is weird but wicked! it was definitely a fiver well spent!
