I'm a big fan of chemical brothers, but this sample sounds a bit gay-ish and too simple compared to EV. No offense. Though I'm still looking forward for the whole song!

Something said in an insulting way, then follows up and says "no offense". Cool, got it...

You don't have to like the song, or the wee sample - a negative opinion is perfectly fine but maybe provide a more reasonable explanation as to what's turning you off.

May have to let this on grow on me, The beat is MASSIVE however I'll need to hear a full version to make up my mind. I'm not nervous though as most of my favorite songs had to grow on me first, but yes no general grab of love just yet.... love takes time :wink:
its a little early but thanks anyway

30-second preview of Swoon on Amazon, that's what everyone heard.

Also many loud, distorted YouTube videos of Dj gigs from the past year, but no leakage of any type.

Nope no leak, just the amazon preview and the youtube videos.
Will the track be aired on Radio 1 soon ?

EDIT :

It says it will be available on May 10th. I tried to fool the website by replacing the id of an available album with the id of Swoon on the listening l ink but it didn't work :)

Am I the only one who's bothered by the vocal saying "There's nothing elssssssse"? It's kinda creeping me out.

Actually, it sounds like the original vocal trailed off on the word 'else', so they added in an s sound that lasts for a bit too long. Just what I think.
There's nothing else...

Even I didn't find that small sample impressive - it's too short and out of context. I had missed out hearing the youtube versions earlier, until Benji posted them again yesterday - I am in love with the song!! I'm loving the direction this album's taking, beaaautiful!!! :)
I'm going through a very rough divorce, and the Chems always arrive with music to help me fight back at the right times, it's always been something symbolic with each release. Thanks Ed n Tom! You guys've no idea what u've added to our lives! You've shaped mine!

Sorry, my english skills are too poor to let me express my feeling properly. I didn't want to sound arrogant at all, nor to insult anyone.
Chemical brother's songs are known to be very complicated, lots of synth, weird structures. Swoon's sample sounds very cheap and simple. It's too easy for the chemical brothers.I know, it's only a sample. Once again, I apologize!

What a great first thing for Ed to read about their first (commercial?) single from Further. :roll:

Anyways, I'm very excited to hear Swoon! There is a bunch of complexities I'm only now starting to hear from these samples, such as effects done the voice, genius variations to the bass line, etc!

I admit I wasn't to thrilled about the track when the first youtube vids were shown. It's been growing on me of some sorts. I wouldn't say the track was cheap and simple, but my williness to adapt to this style of song has gotten me good results later on, so I eagerly await the crispy and clean full version.

Bouh, Don't worry! I knew what you were trying to saying the first time. Sometimes you just gotta think before you say something!
Your forgiven! :grin:

Hey Bouh, thank you - much appreciated!!

I think all will be revealed eventually when we are in possession of the track and even better still, in possession of Further so we can hear it in context.

The sample is such a tease, and I've stopped with listening to those poor sounding youtube links until after Further is released - which is why I haven't really been vocal with my take on Swoon. But I will say the sample is extremely catchy with a warm summery vibe.
be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle

How could a moaning woman sound gay?

Anyway, have been swoon over by Swoon since the very first youtube snippet. I do hope it will be a bit longer and have some more changes/effects throughout the song.
The excitement is rising and my feet are waiting to get unleashed for a chemical dance!

This sounds great. Can't wait to hear the whole thing, the snippet is like a massive tease.
