[Si the Sigh]

Any body own this double pack?

If yes, what's it like? And also, is the track on the A1 "Gates" the one that was released on Flux as well, or is that a remix?

[Si the Sigh]

BUMP!

I've got it. It's pretty good from what i can recall (sitting at work as i write this, so i'm going on memory here). Straight-up bangers all the way through. Nothing too amazing but just good solid techno. I do remember that my favorite track on there is "Fit" which has this great vocal sample that loops throughout--i believe it's saying "more." The track is pretty frantic--i love it. As for the Gates question, can't help you out with that.

[Si the Sigh]

Ok, well thanks for the info. I've bought it, so I guess I'll find out about the Gates track. It's Skoog, so I doubt I can go wrong with buying it really!

Mike Cerda would be the man to contact in regards to any questions about Global Traxx.

i'd personally email Pat instead, he'd have more knowledge on what versions of his tracks have appeared where

[eyeswithoutaface]

and yeah im a tad confused too Si over the "Gates" track

still a corker

Good point. Mikey only owns the label... If you have contact with Skoog, that would be a better route.

[eyeswithoutaface]

pat's a top bloke, he wouldnt mind si getting in touch if it was troubling him that much

which knowing him it probably is :)

[Si the Sigh]

ha ha! :) I've lost sleep, put it that way...

[Si the Sigh]

It's

[Si the Sigh]

Oops! Don't know what happened there? It's NOT the same version of Gates that was released on Flux. Got this through the post yesterday, it's a pretty good release. All the tracks are great, a lot harder than I can remember Skoog producing.

[Paul Zykotik]

Glad you like it Si - it's gone to a better home! It's definitely one of his harder releases - reminds me of the early Headroom stuff on Compound (unsurprisingly) but I play that more than I play that double pack and so it went on sale.

[Si the Sigh]

Yea, cheers for that mate. I love it. I so wish Skoog produced hard techno still...

Do send me over the list of whats left for sale when you get the chance.

[The Overfiend]

I will second that notion of wishing he was still on the dark side of the force.
I talk to him from time to time, but I think Scott would have better luck convinving him of coming back to the fold.

[Si the Sigh]

Take him hostage?

[eyeswithoutaface]

yeah, who know's, to be fair his more electronic stuff is still pretty club orientated at times but yeah its not the classic hard sound. I dont think Pat would never say never though, would be cool to see some new headroom stuff especially

[loopdon]

I could imagine he still does stuff in that vein from time to time. Now whether you release it is a different matter.
