I like Miami Showdown -- feels TRONish

I own it but haven't given it a go yet. Maybe next month.
love is all.

Not bad at all. I really dig half the album a lot, and it's a decent album altogether. I can't say I was disappointed because I didn't have my expectations set, but I think I was hoping for more like Jupiter Room. Love that track.

As it is, yes, Miami Showdown is almost straight from the Tron Soundtrack, and I like Stratosphere quite a bit. Overall, quite listenable.

This can´t hold a candle to their first album, IMO. The Brodinski edit of Miami Showdown is pretty cool, but i´m very disappointed, it totally lacks the energy of their debut. The Julian Casablancas track is the worst offender, sounds totally like a Strokes reject. And I don´t even like the Strokes!

a friend/colleague of mine told me today it was alright and I trust in his taste in music. I will check it out when on holiday in a few weeks.
love is all.

What did Brodinksi do other than speed the track up and may cut out a few lines? I was a bit excited to see that he touched this track, but then I listened to it and it was just sped up... I actually quite like the original. I can totally hear it as the "Lost" electro track from the Tron OST. With that said, I'm probably only going to keep half or less of the tracks on this album.

This album has grown on me a lot and I'm actually liking every single track on it. 2 Hearts, despite it being pretty damned cheesy and poppy, is a great tune.

Okay, actually, I don't like ReeperBahn. Only track I don't like, though. Everything else I dig.

Fucking forget about it. This is an amazing remix/rework of 2 Hearts. Jesus. DIGITALISM--GO!

That remix is pretty excellent - is it only 4 minutes long? It kind of ended abruptly.

Yeah, would be nice if it were longer--not sure if it is. I got this off the YouTubez and compared it with an official preview of this remix and the clip matched what's here on YouTube, so it's possible that an "official" release will be longer, but unlikely.

I first heard the remix on that mix, though--give that a listen.

Very nice! Is it a rule that Hardfest sets have to be awesome? I'm a big fan of Erol's Hardfest mix too.

So, when is this remix going to get an official release?

Hardfest has some really amazing acts come through--nice to see they're active nationwide these days.

Don't know when this is getting an official release. The b-sides to the album are absolutely immense. Have you heard Blade?
