Re: Ring Road - Fake Blood Remix - Underworldlive.com
Where did he sample the "wah-aaaaaaa" sound at 8s from?
I remember hearing it on a bootleg before... For example it's on Born Slippy NUXX from Reading 1996 at 13:30 shortly before the slow Rez intro begins.
By sampling that obscure UW sound alone he deserves my respect.

But I like the track anyway. As a simple statement of liking this track or not doesn't seem to satisfy some members I'd like to give some reasons:
- great use of samples. IMO the think break fits perfectly. In general I find nothing wrong or cliched with sampling. YMMV.
- exceptional use of Karl's vocals. I think it's very unusual and funny how he cut them up instead of just playing it back.
- great bass line which is modified and filtered throughout the song.
- a well thought out structure that shows that he actually cared and didn't just take a bar and loop it for 8 minutes.
- the mood. I don't see anything embarrassing in it. It doesn't always have to be the standard UW-'dark and long'-atmosphere.
conclusion: an unusual Underworld remix for sure, but I think it's a great one.

Please, I don't understand why anyone could dislike this track. Could you explain? I've never seen such a hatred against a song before, and I'm curious what the reasons for your emotional behaviour are.

Yay, a remix competition! Please UW, put some samples up!
