Pearls Girl - Carp Dreams KOI

well... let's not get into that argument AGAIN

I'm sure we know where some people stand on that one (if it's out of print - then UW don't make any money off it's sale so then it should be ok to share)

It wasn't meant to be an argument, I'm simply stating the rules of the forum.
Whether people agree with those rules is another thing altogether.

This is a fallacious argument I see so often, it makes me angry. Just because something is Out of Print, doesn't mean it's OK to share freely. The copyright holder still holds exclusive rights to control distribution and replication of his copyrighted works, including the right to NOT have it distributed. Until a copyright expires (in the U.S., that's 70 years after the death of the author) and the work passes into the public domain, you do NOT have the right to do whatever you want to that work, regardless of its current published status.

when i first heard this track,
i didn't really think too much of it..

in fact i was wondering what it had
to do with 'pearls girl'..

but at the time, underworld were much
more adventureous with their remixes,
and a lot more creative with their releases..

in time, i grew to really like it, and although
it only shares a basic resemblance to the
album track, i can still see where they were
going with it....

in listening to their recent output of remixes
and tracks, i'm glad to see they are back
to this 'style' of experimenting more with
sounds, and maybe a more 'electro' synth
sound with the 'blips' and 'bleeps' as described..
