I dont really feel it.

Am I the only one that thinks the original of this one is better? If there was one track that was completely headbuckingly energetic, and DIDNT need to be half-ed down it was it.

I love 'em both

The contrast between loefah's beat and flowdans vocal is fantastic in the remix, and loefah's vocal edits are sick. The original is just pure energy. Different tunes for different times..

Definitely agree here, the original is great the way it is. I honestly don't see how any club related remixes can bring anything new to the table with this, particularly not a typical halfstep minimalist-makeover that Loefah has done so many times already.

Remix is sick, absolutely goes off at fwd.

Not understanding the criticism on this.

Club related remix what? It aint about any of that mate, it's just how Loefah thinks he can make a good tune even better. That's what a remix is.

The first time i heard the Loefah mix loud i knew it was a killer.

Nice to have 2 different styles on one 12

Looking forward to getting it on my own turntables

By "club related" I mean remixes that are meant for the dance, as I think there is little to no potential left for a remix catering to the dance when the original is as good as it is (I remember the original got three rewinds on Kode9's FWD podcast last year).

Obviously, I disagree with Loefah on this kind of makeover making the tune better. And, just in case: the first time I ever heard this was at Warrior Dubz last year, didn't like it then either.

I know what you meant.

So what you're saying is if a tune gets 3 rewinds +, it shouldn't get remixed? Ha. Isn't the majority of dubstep catered for the dance?

Heavy remixes of already shower tunes:
Rutten
Third Choice
Request Line
Avenger
Splurt
Punisher...to name a few.

Yeah, that was exactly what I meant.

I was merely making a reminiscing remark similar to your "This remix is sick, it goes off at FWD"-remark.

And so what if the majority of dubstep is catering to the dance? That should just be all the more incentive for producers to take a completely different approach if you ask me.
