Kind of like Cups when the bass ignites or even Jumbo...


I really really really don't think they wanted to make a "dance" song here. This is a very special song that transcends jumping around.

Pulp have just done Disco 2000. Underworld have just done Disco 3000! :-D

hmmm, nowhere in my post did i detect any indication that I was referring to a "dance" song or jumping around... :confused:

to want to feel the music pulse throughout your insides in no way to me says it needs to be a dance song...

Thanks King. I'm excited to try this when I get home. It never even dawned on me to do this and I edit music straight from the WAV files all the time... lol! I guess I was just hoping for a cool STITI box w/some extra tracks and video... :D

i always preferred the version of Pearl's Girl from the Saint Soundtrack to be quite honest - but that may just be for sentimental reasons...

i rarely even listen to the 92-02 disc - i just got the japanese version for the extra DVD... and also because i didn't have Big Mouth or Dirty...

All the mp3s in my collection go through MP3Gain (see Wikipedia for info).
