shahar@isratrance Posted February 25, 2002 Share Posted February 25, 2002 Ticon - Remixes Artist: Ticon Title: Remixes Label: Digital Structures Date: 2002 Track listing: 01. 08'00" Ticon : We Are The Mammoth Hunters (MOS Rmx) 02. 07'28" Ticon : We Are The Mammoth Hunters (P-Woland Rmx) 03. 08'07" Ticon : Lo-Mi-Hi (Atmos Rmx) 04. 07'39" Ticon : Lo-Mi-Hi (The Aircrash Bureau Rmx) Review: After causing a big impact in 2001 with a lot of hits and an amazing debut album, Ticon are back with a remixes EP in their home label Digital Structures. Two of their best tracks were chosen to be remixed. From their album, their best track for me, and surely their biggest hit on the outdoor psychedelic dancefloors- We Are the Mammoth Hunters, and on the other hand a more clubby indoor soft hit- Lo-Mi-Hi. MOS start with their version of the mammoths- strong powerful pounding track as to be expected from MOS and a sure driving hit on every dancefloor. Still, I must say that it's not much of an interpretation for me. The original has enough power of its own and sounds more organic, MOS don't tell us a different story really. P-Woland takes us to different places in a more groovy version, and more of a remix. It's a real nice one, and a very enjoyable track, but the feeling that we're in a mammoth hunt is lost, and in that it misses the point, I think. Atmos remix to Lo-Mi-Hi is a real surprise- massive distorted sound, a feel that reminds me of The Delta, but much softer, with a lot of emotions and a fairy tale atmosphere. A full power trance work that opens up beautifully in the end, and a definite in-your-face floor stormer. It also gives a different perspective on the original. Ladies & Gentlemen- Atmos is back! The Aircrash Bureau go to another territory altogether- technoish clubby explosive version, with great percussion and a totally engulfing build up. Though it's not the music that I listen to usually, I must say I find it quite irresistible. Bottom Line: The Lo-Mi-Hi remixes give us more than the Mammoth Hunters ones. Anyway this is a must for DJs and Ticon lovers. I think it would have been nice to have the originals here as well. Favorites: 1, 3(!), 4.

Guest [Anonymous] Posted February 28, 2002 Share Posted February 28, 2002 amazing MOS remix is a TWISTED MENTAL KILLER Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mars Posted March 3, 2002 Share Posted March 3, 2002 1) This MOS remix is pure warfare! Stomping relentlessly, it makes you trip increasingly. It seems this track breathes...Some background sounds brainscrewed me. won-der-ful !!! 2) It's linear in the begining, with some light groove in it. When it starts to kick your ears alternatively, it gets more mental and enjoyable...but not enough to make people jump... 3) This one scratches your cortex hard after an intro coming from a fairytale. It lets you breathe in the middle before it sends you highighigh in a mix of minimal and typical sweedish sounds..woah what a slap in the face ! (i don't copy the first review...it does make this strong effect) 4) After the brainscrewer and the brainsucker, here is the braincutter. whack whack whack...we are in a factory...whack whack whack...red alert...whack whack whack...a big sequence of massive blasting sounds, just before it restarts all in one ! eat that ! *AN EP TO HAVE* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest [Anonymous] Posted July 23, 2002 Share Posted July 23, 2002 it´s just top notch!!! ( the aircrash bureau rmx....) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Nois Posted September 8, 2002 Share Posted September 8, 2002 All 4 tracks are great. And every of these tracks makes people jump sky-high (according to experiments done by DJ Nois dancefloor science institute but in its own way. Atmos & Mos are great night-time trax, whereas p-woland and aircrash bureau are brilliant morning tunes. Overall 9/10 (10/10 to aircrash bureau) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
