    Is this just coming out now? I remember he did this one a long time ago. It's really bad. To be honest, I think this whole new sound of preach/cave/etc. is just really cheesy. Phillipe started off to be pretty promising, making some old school Zenit type techno and other stuff that was moody and closer to the swedish sound. With time he morphed it into that newer Intec style of crap commercial techno. Why? He was a resident at Aria every weekend and they ate the shit up at the time. He and his agent are really amazing when it comes to the business sense. He really blew up and now plays huge festivals and clubs all over the world. In result, this is the kind of stuff that really gets those crowds going easily so he's become acustomed to it.

    My point exactly.
    Solitary by nature.
    Isolation is the gift.
    Does anyone have courage to stand apart any more?

    i dunno, i think the cheese is always there in preach records, sometimes it's hidden under the surface, but i've always found most preach records bordering on cheesy - good, as far as cheese goes, but still cheese...

    ^ or all the tracks on patterns he did, or his mankind, or his relic album, or the hardsignal track, and a bunch more too...

    the guy is an amazing producer, he does come out with crap every now often, but its crap that will probably sell really well. personally, if anyone puts out a commercial tune to make some cash, and still puts out quality techno as well, thats ok by me. think eric prydz....i mean, ya gotta eat right? just as long as he doesnt go all ignition technition on us, and still maintains a consistant flow of good tracks...why not?

    i can honestly say that his productions have gone downhill....

    theres a difference between having tight production skills, and having tight music productions. Preach has unbelievable programming and sequencing skills. He really knows how to use his software properly.......you can tell he has tight production skills, and he knows what hes doing. BUT, that dont mean many of his tracks are good.....alot of people nowadays are pure production, not enough music involved. And unfortunately i think thats the road Preach is heading down towards.

    He wont care though, he'll keep churning out as many releases as necessary, both cheezey and non-cheezey in order to keep his name out. And you cant blame the guy. Why would he care? He's getting bigger and bigger by the week......he cant afford to not keep this Ricky Martin techno sound going......

    I am probably going to get a lot of shit for this, but I dont really care - I actually like that track. I think it's fun - maybe because I happen to like Blur as well, maybe because I'm a girl and chicks sometimes dig stuff like this - who knows. Yes, it's commercial-and yes, a bit campy and cheesy, but so what? I wouldnt play it myself, but a track like that might open people's ears to techno-people who would otherwise not give techno a chance. We need music like this to get those people to listen or techno will just die out completely. I'm not saying to play a whole set like this - but still....throwing one track in could make the difference between someone saying 'hey....techno isnt so bad afterall-let me see what else is out there' to 'i cant listen to this noise-get me out of here'. Even Carl Cox plays stuff like this-but he knows when to throw it in at just the right moment....

    And sorry, I dont care how purist you guys THINK you are, you know as well as I do that if you had the same opportunity as Philip has had to release so much music under your name-you wouldnt hesitate to do it. And if you say that you wouldnt-you are full of it!!!!

    End rant.

    i love Blur, i have everything they've done both albums, single, rarities, Japanese imports the lot, but this is UTTER SHITE

    Purists? no thats just a term people use to describe other's whose taste barrier is slightly higher than the norm

    this is sell out wank, proper ****ing garbage, there is no way id ever lower myself to do something quite so shit

    Erm, after a number of commercial successes I was courted by a lot of commercial labels asking me to essentially do the same thing again. I very politely said that I wouldn`t, but if I did come up with anything I thought would fit their sound, I would send it.
    Anyway They weren`t interested as they essentially wanted a repeat performance.
    So I did hesitate and decided against it.
    I did stew over all this for a while as a few people on here will know about as I was kinda confiding in them my dilema.
    However some may say I am a fool for suffering for my art.
    Peronally I just think I am a bit stubborn, a bit pretencious, and also have a bit of integrity.

    Personally I would rather do what I am feeling at the time, and try not to repeat myself, rather than just do something for the cash.
    I have a job, I already do shit I don`t care about for cash.

    i've spoke to preach on the phone, i've met him at gigs, i love him as a person.

    but this is not my thing. but he has his reasons, and i say good on ya, do what ya have to do. it's not techno, but hey, if you wanna go in this direction, do what you have to do.

    respect preach. just look at the recog you're getting :clap: :clap: :clap: it not techno but it's recog :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: stop complaining everyone, preach is doing his thing. why does techno have to hold him so dear??????

    leave him to his thing - it's obviously working for him!!!

    mho btw ;)
