No - someone who posts here emailed the song to me, which was from a rip of the single. If you want me to send it to you via email, I will.

I don't think the song is available through the site yet, unless maybe I missed something (which is possible).

The first song I had was the radio edit played on the Pete Tong radio show, and yes, that is very poor quality with a lot of interference. That was my first impression of the song. And since it was a radio edit, the song was truncated.

The version I have is the Extended Mix and it excels above the radio edit of the song, hands down.

so it's not audiophilic quality i suppose ? (no thnx, i don't want you to send that song via email)

i_i , it is as audiophilic as an mp3 can get, its from a CD from the actual promo of the CD, coming out a month from now. The only way for it to sound better would be to have it as a .wav file.

Anyways, last night before I went to a local DJ showcase, I listened to the extended mix in my new car for the first time. It was amazing! I noticed various synths that I had never heard. What I liked the most was that the song was so much more cohesive when I could actually here the beat in the various breakdowns. So, I now less than three (<3) this song :)

What do you mean? I never said the song I have is audiophile quality - it is a cd rip which is of pretty damn high quality. The headphones, yeah - those were audiophile. But I'm just an idiot monkey, so what do I know about sound?

neither .mp3 , .mp4 nor .wav is audiophilic quality. ( for example .ape is )

anyway ,have fun listening to your cyrstal clear quality music. and when your ears have an orgasm be sure to clean your ears ok ? you don't want to broke that audiophilic headphone right ?

My eyes just rolled so hard I think I just sprained the back of my head. Well done, i__i.

Prick.

i didn't get that ?????????? what have i done well ??????

You've done absolutely nothing well. It's pretty clear you don't know shit about quality equipment, probably because you've never had the chance to actually experience it first hand. Just because you're too poor to get quality shit, don't take it out on us.

And, for the record, the $180 ear buds sounded absolutely amazing. Better than my home theater system.

i don't understand that but i have done smthng i guess.

i think maybe you are too poor to have an good home theater system ? so that you are listening to music with your "audiophilic" headphones eh ? (btw, i hate this word = "audiophilic" it came up lately to make that useless equipment populer and make idiotic people to consume those useless equipment [ but it's just my point of view of course :=))) ] )

i think i have enough knowledge about quality equipment . and let me ask how can you enjoy The Chemical Brothers in headphones ???? i don't get that. i think without feeling the bass vibrations all on your body no one can enjoy The Chemical Brothers actually nor any BIGBEAT type of music nor any kind of music with good beats and bass line .

you're such a retard. They're not my headphones. Personally, I wouldn't pay $180 for a set of headphones, but they sounded amazing, revealing layers of the song that you couldn't hear on regular speakers. I guess it's something you have to hear to understand, and since you haven't heard it, you don't understand it, so shut the fuck up, noob.

how do you know that i've never tried them ? firstly.

secondly you are starting to make no sense at all. "revealing layers of the song ........ " hahahaha. that's a good joke if it was a joke and a stupid thing to say if it was not.

i think you're the one who's a newbie. try to get a good home theater system first of all OK ? i can help you with that if you like.

i__i, the great thing about music is that it can be enjoyed in anyway the listener wishes. We all have our preferences. If someone wants to listen to vinyl and their soundsystem pleases them, then that's great. If people choose to listen on headphones sitting in their living room or walking down the street and the end result is gaining something from the experience, then that is great too. If I listen to the Chemical Brothers in my car with the windows down and the wind rushing through my hair as cars drive past, that is a free and exhilirating experience that can't be captured any other way. We all have our ways of listening to music, you do the best with what you got, and just enjoy it for what it is (or don't enjoy it, fair play - nobody can make someone like something). More power to everyone if you have a preference for how to hear something!

I agree "feeling" the thunder of bass rippling through your body when you are listening on a thumpin' system offers a unique experience on its own - that is what is so great about hearing songs played out in clubs on a good system, or even better, when you hear the Chemical Brothers bang it out live! Feeling that bass is what the Brothers want to achieve when they're hashing it out live. You are correct that you can't feel this when you're listening on headphones, but to denegrate the listening and pitting one listening format against the other... it just doesn't do anyone any good.

All I wanted when I came here and posted my experience today was to try and get a point across, not get in a pissing contest about which way is the proper way to listen to the Chemical Brothers. I was just sharing my thoughts, really - and you implied I was an idiot for buying into my experience and then telling me not to be offended. OK. What I heard last night was something I hadn't heard before, I still don't understand what's minimal about Do It Again especially after what I heard, so I was bringing it to the table. I didn't want to argue just express what I heard. There is no one perfect way to listen to something that is universal (except when you're in the crowd at a Chems gig, it doesn't get any better than that!!)

Britney Spears is doable on headphones though. Love that bass.

Thanks for the tip, Slipvin, I'll be sure and give it a whirl. I trust your judgment.

- i'm sorry that i may implied you are an idiot

- i think all that audiophilic equipment and software is just useless and waste of money ( one can't hear any of the LAYERS of the song that can't be heard with normal speakers. to be able to say such a thing one should know nothing about making music, or just combining sounds together )

- "do it again" is minimal music i insist even you listen to the most audiophilic hi-fi system. you say when you listen via audiophilic headphones it's not minimal. that's where i get in this argument. if a song is minimal it doesn't matter what you listen it with.

- i'm not making anyone like smthng. i'm just showing the proper way to listen to music. but if one says i'm one of the dammest idiots of the world of course he/she can go ahead and buy tons of audiophilic headphones , hi-fi systems. and after buying them he/she should listen to that music in a perfect room temperature approximately 25 celcius degrees to be able to enjoy that ear orgasm . you know the sound travels in air just perfectly in that temperature .

- i too enjoy listening to music via headphones while i'm jogging even with my mobile phone's headphones.

- I'm trying to say that listening to minimal music with audiophilic headphones doesn't make it any fantastic. it is again minimal.

- i've had enough for now ,see you like 18 hours later, good night.

good night, i__i, thanks for clarifying!

(I am starting to really hate that word 'minimal'. I think I need to listen to examples from other artists who are considered minimal so I have something to compare Do It Again to)

I'd be interested to know what Ed thinks of the Chems being associated with minimal - just to get his perspective, straight from the source.

Just listening to the extended mix. I like the radio edit better. Extended mix is a tad boring.

yawn

lol'd
