Trance2MoveU Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 Artist: Shpongle & Mad Tribe Title: Stoned Remixes EP Label: TIP Records Date: May, 2016 1. Out Here We Are Stoned (Mad Tribe Remix) 2. Out Here We Are Stoned (Shpongle Remix) A remix of a remix? Can you do that? Won't that create a rift in the time space continuum? Oy TIP. Good to see you employing the "just throw some sh*t together" method of album art. This is a short 2-track EP that attempts to remix the X-dream remix of E-rection's Out Here We Are Stoned. It's a classic track and the fact that Shpongle did one of these will probably have all the Shpongle bunnies emerging from their hidey holes. Ok we know how this goes. Take a classic track and usually make an inferior full-on sounding remix. Mad Tribe (Space Tribe + Mad Maxx) did just that. What did you actually add that made the track better? You full-oned it surely, but didn't even throw any of that sticky acid both projects love to use in there. Yeah you kept the iconic signature melody, but... Fail. Now I was surprised with the uptempo Shpongle mix. It wasn't better or transformative, but from the middle of the track onward was pretty bouncy. The promo said this was from the deleted vaults (whatever that means), but perhaps the most intriguing statement: "Essential release and a taster of an exciting project we will be releasing news on very soon!!!" The first part of that statement is an outright lie, and the second part...well we'll have to see won't we? TIP we all want to see you back on top, but you're gonna have to do better than this.

Squid Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 I second that. These remixes just make you want to hear the original instead... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
draeke Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 I wonder what would the original creators of this tune feel about it, this track has been released and remixed too many times already with little credit to the original artist. Oh well, that's the scene I guess. The music is somewhat decent but not beyond that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mozza Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Maybe its just me but Shpongle remix sounds more like Hallucinogen remix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Padmapani Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 what a curious release. the shpongle remix is actually decent with a few interesting sounds. only the guitar sounds out of place. the mad tribe remix on the other hand.... i though we left those cheap fullon remixes behind us a few years ago? still, besides the obvious (x-dream), the best remix of this track is imba's version.

voice of all Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 realy both tracks are far not so bad no metter what is remixing and by who. they are not perfect hits at all but personally i consider possibility to play them in a certain style mix. Shpongle's one more interesting as it is but Mad Tribe's is rather good as dancefloor filler so both can be used successfuly. should i wish smth better? probably! is this release sucks? no way!

X-Dream stole all of their glory for this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
