by the way, and still about Call on Me : I've heard that in fact this is NOT Eric Prydz's creation. Someone told me that it was Thomas Bangalter from the Daft Punk which was the author of that and thar the song we ear everywhere is a remix by Eric Prydz. By searching on Soulseek, i've found a lot of "Falcon & Bangalter - Call on Me (Eric Prydz remix)" so is he realy the creator of that song ?




Absolutely not. The 'official' story is that Prydz and his producer mates Retarded Funk worked on a dance track together, and had the idea to sample Steve Winwood's Valerie. Then they managed to give a copy to DJ Falcon during one of his gigs ; the bootleg ended up being one of his most played tracks. The masses wanted to learn more about this floor-killer, and assumed to be the follow-up to Thomas Bangalter & DJ Falcon's 'So Much Love To Give'. That's why you can sometimes find their names on the Prydz tune, on slsk for instance. Meanwhile, Prydz managed to get Steve's clearance for the sample. Steve even re-recorded the vocals. That's how Call On Me officially and legally came out.



...but some say that Prydz isn't as involved in this project as he claims to be. Indeed, the original bootleg would have been made by Retarded Funk, who never managed to get the clearance for the vocals. The track was merely released on white label. But then Prydz came and polished the tune a little bit, which was enough for Steve Winwood to like it and give him the rights. So basically, Prydz didn't do much on this project ; enough however to allow its existence.




on my Azuli Space 2004 CD there is a slightly different version by "red kult " called "call me". This is my favourite version but the mystery continues...

Robert Miles?? :o




Well, I was reffering to his cheesy "dream trance" period, which hit the charts hard. Now he produces far better music imo... check his Organik album and its remixes (especially the FSOL one of "Paths" : amazing).
