Best epic intro?

I'm going to do a new mix to put online and I'm having such a hard time finding a dramatic and epic track to begin with that has a decent amount of time before it goes to the drop. I'd like maybe 1:50 before the drop hits and something that sounds epic and like something amazing is about to begin.

Can anybody help me out here? What song has a nice dramatic intro around the 140-145 BPM mark that sounds like the beginning of a set?

A heap of different Vex'D tracks have that 1:50+ intros. Killing Floor, Bonbardment of Saturn, Angels, Fire... Give them a listen.

Kryptic Minds' remix of Afterlife? Definitely delivers on the long intro, dunno if it's what you're after though.

Truth - Fatman VIP. That intro gets me going, then throws a curveball at me, nice tune.
