[kiki0152]

この曲聞いてやり始めた事がいくつかあります。

[c8kwalk]

THIS IS MUSIC!!!

[iadnar]

I would love to know what does Reich himself think about this piece... The original version is superb, but this remix is quiet good.

[bonkswa]

i love the artwork :)

[CNSagent]

Intensely uplifting.

[TheSnekkermoen]

this has to be the best track in the world

[TheMightyLeprichaun]

still good however



[TheMightyLeprichaun]

why the fuck are there drums in this, there definitley were not drums in the original

1 live guitar

7 (i think) pre-recorded guitars

2 pre-recorded bass'

[MusicNearside]

@TheMightyLeprichaun you're also missing the massive fact that theres an extra minim per bar... from 3/2 to 4/2... and then the sig change happens..

[TheKasperkat]

@TheMightyLeprichaun

as well as a lot of stuff, your point being ?

[10jhud]

@TheMightyLeprichaun its a remix...

[jarbear]

As a big Reich fan I approve of this stuff.

[tuktuktok]

What royksopp is retardify music. But I hate to admit it but it's a nice version.

[moosenamedmorton]

Who is the artwork by at 2:18? Beautiful music. Let the haters hate. I'd be interested to see what Steve thinks of this. His inspiration is boundless. When I first listened to his stuff, I realized I'd already heard it sampled by underground hip-hop guys like Madlib. I love good music.

[Genecidedrummer]

it's amazing how much respect something ironically as complicated as minimalism gets when it's simplified into a 4/4 time signature and a straight beat.

[OldManWalk]

First - Electric counertpoint made me big fan of Steve reich and then years after found Poor Leno... Thanks Roysopp for this tune...

[SuperRogo11]

They should be prosecuted for that shit.

[Murakamizo]

this is for lazy, ignorant, and bad trained ears. What a disturbing low quality midi drums

[llamatube]

@Murakamizo How did you stumble across this? Ironic since you're being ignorant.

[davedagreat69]

@Murakamizo Moron! A bigotted one at that.

[magellanwave]

Amazing! increible, una belleza de trabajo. Sehr schönn Musik!

[Singingjacobus]

I LOVE THIS! Why can I not find it in the laziest form? I have to leave my flat to find this?

[nubient]

good!

[CybrusIQtop]

Amazing! Minimalism on the dancefloor!

[egghandsthethird]

love it :)

[dreibein]

the drums are spoiling it

[GodofDoors]

@dreibein yeah, the drumbeat ruins it. The piece is supposed to be kind of toned down.

[GodofDoors]

@dreibein Though around 4:00 they start to integrate a little bit, but for the rest of it they kind of just tag along to the strings.

[n0thank7]

@dreibein i think they were just trying to introduce this kind of music to a group of people who would be totally into it, but might not know it otherwise. it's a neat way of bringing real culture to the club scene, if you ask me.

[alcohalls]

Wow!

I just discovered this remix.

It's simply awesome.

Thanks.

[TheB0P]

i dislike that they felt the need to change the meter.

there was already 12/8 going on in the original.

[jfwong]

rjd2 also sampled this song incredibly well in The Proxy

[silentrunner86]

epic

[amistrymister]

I love this remix. Amazing.
