The song is really good until the generic fast beats come in halfway through and ruin it. There was a lot more left to explore in the first mood, but FoK took the easy way out.


I was thinking the same thing, actually. I am going to make an all-not-double-time mix of it also, because the ultra clean beaty part is kind of a buzz kill and I think it would be better if I went in a dubbier direction with the first two minutes' material and feel. There's also a shit ton of those string samples that I never ended up using.

I do this thing where I get the AWESOME IDEA to make big changes in the middle of a song to give it a structure, forgetting that the reason people don't do that often is because it kills the mood. It works well sometimes!

I do like this version, though, I will keep it around as an alternate version for the Rykodisc reissue.
