Great track but it's the reissued, edited version from the remixes 12" (HG009). The original release, on HG005, runs for 8 and a half minutes and features a sample from David Bowie's "Warsawa" track (from "Low"). I don't think they had clearance for the sample and removed it for subsequent releases. This original mix was again reissued in 2007 ("Mad Monks on Zinc (Reborn)", Flying Circus records), still missing the Bowie sample, but clocking in at 7.44.
A truly unique and innovative tune, from one of the most creative eras of Electronica. This group churned out some pretty fascinating and cutting edge sounds back in the day.
( I remember raving to their very intense "Pure Zinc" remix of this track) Class upload!
Great dark trance music. Notice the the great piano break. In that time off release (1992-1993) it also had a videoclip, with dancing skeletons. Great song.
I have on the black stuff. Still sounding crisp.
