Well after the difficulties of the last round where I had to get 8 down to 6 that passed my simple "Is this hard or not" test, I've got a different difficulty with this round - none of them pass it!

Good tunes, some buzzin', some minimal, some a bit happy - but no hardness for me.

Ready to be flamed... X(

Well I'm quite surprised with my synopsis on this one. Still having problems listening to them, but there ya go. I would automatically go straight for the robert armani track every time, and to be honest I think the hit hard track hits the hard category slap bang on. However, this time I've been drawn to a less hard track at first glance. But when you discect the track, and check out the banging bass that kicks in. It goes down like a ton of bricks! Now obviously it doesn't bang out that loud on my shitty little speakers, but I remember hearing it on a loud system at my mates house about 10 year ago, after a session at th'orbit.

Ignore last post - sleep deprivation kicking in. Listening to them on a loop and now I've got 3 that are passing the test...

Yep, really shocked on that one! Hardest track, and I didn't choose rob armani?!! Who'd have funk it?

Well just put my 2 penneth worth in after coming down from a 12 minute nostalgia wave due to "jam n spoon/follow me"....ahhhhhh(in a alan partridge style)...aint heard this for yonks!(n1 billy).....still peeved bout the tempo reduction going on wi some clips that i submitted though.. :nono: ....(new soundcard now on the way :D ) ....at least it holds out till half way through on "we have arrived" though.....this tune for me has always remained one of my top 3(if its possible to have a top 3) from the day i first heard it....a golden elixir to my techno tastebuds... :bowling: .....could well of voted for more than 4 tracks but after a long and drawn out battle with myself i settled for just the 4...... ;)

Cool, I think I will have as much listening to them this week as I will choosing which ones I pick. Man some crackers this week. Don't think Jam & Spoon will get through on first view but what a tune indeed. Has to be in my all time top five tunes. Another possibility for a future poll. General all round top tune.

...and to be especially enjoyed when spun by the straight-faced teutonic tank himself! (reference to my birthday night '94 (i think)... maybe we can confirm this on the flyers? (the cubes were outstanding too!!))
