Re: [new tracks] -> _unreleased_dubnobasswithmyheadman_era_
wowowowowowowowowowowowowowowowowowow!!!!!!!!!!!!


ok so some responses after hearing the tracks for the first time->

sure, "Can You Feel Me" definitely sounds a bit MK1-ish, and probably wouldn't have fit well amongst the other tracks on the album. But there are definitely bits here and there that REALLY remind me of early Steppin Razor & Lemon Interrupt mixes, which unfortunately - I can't go back and double check which ones, b/c I lost most/all of my remixes from that era when my old computer died -> some of the guitar also sounds familiar, like right after Karl says "can you feel me" for the first time... maybe it was in "tongue" (but back in the mix?)

...and that "boop boop boop" sound at the beginning sounds almost exactly like the intro to the Steppin Razor remix of "Thrill Me" just maybe at a slightly different tempo. (No - not the "Steppin Razor Ambient Mix" -> I mean just the "Steppin Razor Mix")

"Big Meat Show" -> it really sounds like a combination of "The Hump" (the growly noises) one of the remixes of "Human Behaviour" (I can't remember which one), bits of "Skyscraper", there's also (obviously) some of the intro of "Tongue" in there too.

"Organ" -> definitely some similarities to "Eclipse" on the intro... and some bits here and there remind me of "Surfboy" although - it seems to be the most 'unique' amongst these 'new' songs, and could have probably fit onto the final version of "Dubno..." the easiest. Although, in all honesty, I think it might work better if it was edited down a little bit.

is it just me - or do these tracks seem to have more 'real' instruments on them than the other 'dubno' tracks? Like, there seems to be noticeably more live bass (or at least what sounds like a bass guitar) on them than other stuff? And 'normal' guitar as well.

also - I'm really intrigued as to how the long version of "River of Bass" sounds....

[EDIT]
um guys....
so I just tracked down my copy of the "MK1 Demo Tape" and what did I find... "Feel Me" but it's a 4 minute version, not 4:25
which makes me wonder -> MMMMMAAAAYYYYBBBEEE the older, previously known MK1 demo tape is from a bit closer to the creation of "Dubno" than we thought. Or at least, closer than what I originally thought...? any ideas?
