Naaah, it's not there.

There are some "Teebee - ???" in the tracklist, then a guy heard about the remix and was asking if the "???" was it or not. Obviously it's not the remix. Smile

Although it doesn't really matter, as you're not going to listen to it even if it's awesome :P
i really hope it gets released (with the original on the flip that is)

coz my copy of ni ten ichi ryu is badly warped... Icon_sad

I'm getting the original of this for free Monkeydance
beats are there to be broken http://musicindevon.org/
somebody hooked me up with a free copy of this.

I think it was Altered Ego or Statto.

Thanx 2 whoever it was.

I edited my first post :P
I think everyone should put on Teebee's "The Claw" and just pray that his remix of "Ni Ten Itchi Ryu" would be 1/2 as good.

and if its not..

oh well.

0=0

p.s. watch out for the Hazard vs Clipz remix of "Water Margin".

erbanta Wrote:the bottom line isn't the unknown factor, meaning whether the remix will suck or not, it's why peeps like cloak and dagger have problems with somebody NOT having high expectations for it. this should all be fair play for both sides. i don't think ppl for the remix should essentially explain themselves and vice versa.

if this was what cloak and dagger actually meant instead of what i assumed, then i'll have to pull my accusations back.


well i don't have a problem with people having low expectations for it...but the fact that people are actually judging it before they know anything about it and saying things like "oh my god, i'm not even going to listen to it!." i can understand people having low expectations for it...but it's possible to have low expectations for something but not pass judgment on it until one actually hears it. i agree in that nobody NEEDS to explain themselves...but there are a LOT of assumptions floating around in this thread...teebee and photek have a lot of respect for each other, and i think regardless of whether or not you like teebee's recent work, it doesn't mean he isn't CAPABLE of remixing it well if you study his back catalogue...

like i said, it's fine to have low expectations, but you can do so while having an open mind...and that's not what i'm seeing here


oh and to whoever said something about doing this out of desperation for money...photek has been releasing banger after banger since he started the label(s) up again. even if it's not what you're into, there's no denying the popularity and impact they've had on dancefloors all over the world...trust me when i say it's about music and not money, but i think you can figure it out if you think about the popularity of tunes like baltimore and sidewinder.

yes it is possible, but imo not necessary in any way. i don't want to hear the bacteria remix or the acid track remix ever; again, where is the problem?

photek plainly wants to rinse it out, simple as



but, fair play all in all Xyxthumbs
so now the wise erbanta can read photeks thoughts too!

how did drum and bass ever exist before you came along ;]
This thread Hahaha Good job it happened at the weekend so I couldn't get involved Hahaha

Teebee MUST be fully aware of the expectation that surrounds this kind of thing, so I am sure he'll work his tits off. Whether it'll be any good is by the by - it isn't the original, eh.

Someone (C+D?) said on page one or two 'there's a good reason it hasn't been done up until now'. I would suggest that maybe that reason is that there's never been such a dearth of decent music.

As an analogy - Hollywood's current obsession with remaking anything and everything, due to a lack of decent scripts.

That's just the way I see it.

P.S. - 0=0 Rofl

To be honest, it doesnt matter how much effort goes in, how seriously its taken or even how good it is.... it doesnt need to happen! it might be the best tune ive ever heard, who knows... but it just doesnt need to happen.

I quite like the snake style rmx.

but any how, calm down guys.

fuck off Hahaha

i don't know what the ultimate motive is (i doubt it's the money though) and frankly put i don't care, but at the moment he IS rinsing it out!
Cloak + Dagger:

I can understand just why you might get wound up reading some of the fears posted up here before anything's even gotten made, but here's my 2 cents, maybe it'll help you appreciate those sentiments.

(1) I used to quite like Teebee's stuff and played out some of it - before it went strictly 2-step/trance/metal. At least, that's how it began to sound to me. Grin

(2) Teebee's said in interview how everyone in the drum n bass scene is just 'trying to make as much money as possible'. Forgive me if that suggests to me that he might put making that money ahead of his artistic considerations, but I feel that I have the right to infer that from what he said.

(3) The original is an amazing piece of music that represented the apex of a particular drive in drum n bass. That particular direction has absolutely nothing in common with d+b 2005. So what possible reason could there be to remix it now - other than a sense that Official d+b2005 has run out of ideas.... and maybe needs a response to the cheeky pressure being exerted by a new generation of producers who are feeling the breaks and learning just how to rinse them? Grin

(4) I'd pre-judge this remix based upon Teebee's entire output over the last few years. There is nothing arrrogant about this - it's called using one's own judgement. I will listen to it alright, but I have very little patience with 'nu d+b' relicks of classic tunes cos so many of em are complete fucking pone to the max (with a hit rate of about 1%). Therefore, if I like it, I'll be very pleasantly surprised. Nothing arrogant about that IMO.

(5) PS Has anyone heard Fresh's 'remix' of Adam F's Circles? Hahaha
Teebee never did go "strictly trance-twostep-metal." Have you heard Density? It's a tune coming out on Darkestral, and it knocked my fucking socks off. It's quite old I guess, the only time I ever heard it was on a Fracture set over a year ago, but it's absolutely stunning...

I didn't like the Legacy LP either, but you can't rule out someone who has enough talent to make an LP like Black Science Labs...
DJFracture Wrote:it doesnt need to happen!

yeah, i kinda relate to that thought.
the original is so good, it may be a bit hard to overdo it.
but, we'll see.
i know we all would love to see the thoughts of our grumpy minds refuted.

in general i think that a remix of producer [A]'s tune by person [B] whose style is somewhat similar to that of [A] isn't maybe the most interesting thing.
e.g., a macc rmx of some fracture track might not be the bombest-ass idea if u get my point.
HATER! Teef

all i can say again is imo photek is the only man for the job if he thinks it can do with a remix...
UFO_over_easy Wrote:Teebee never did go "strictly trance-twostep-metal." Have you heard Density?

'Who Wants Some'? It's alright. Like Jonny L when he could be bothered, except not as good IMO.

Quote:I didn't like the Legacy LP either, but you can't rule out someone who has enough talent to make an LP like Black Science Labs...

I quite liked the programming on the first Cert 18 BSL LP alright, but I dunno.. too much mechanics over groove a lot of the time I think. Impressive mechanics though, to be sure. And I wouldn't say I'm ruling him out.. I'm, just suspicious of the motivation for remixing something that has absolutely NOTHING to do with drum n bass 2005. I mean, why bother - especially if it has to be given the 05 'treatment' (i.e. make it so it won't challenge kids who've never had their brains twisted bythe original)?

And would you say that about Dillinja - that you can't rule him out co she once made 'Angels Fell'?

BTW, are you claiming that no-one should ever rule anyone out - ever - just in case? Seems a bit over-cautious to me... but maybe that's just cos I've been listening to these guys for more than 10 years. Like - you wouldn't rule out a football team from winning the league even when their form has been poor for ages? Hahaha Or you wouldn't rule out an actor from delivering a seriously good performance when they've been ploughing the same cheeesy furrow for years? Sure - I mean deNiro was amazing in 'Raging Bull'. But that was then - and this is now!

Grin

All I'm saying really is that so many major players in d+b sold theiur skills cheap over the last few years, so I'll listen to their efforts from time to time, but I won't be giving them any creedence in advance i.e. they'll need to impress me as much - if not more - than any newbie producer from some unheard-of label. Basically, as artists, they need to win back my trust for me to really care what they're gonna do next.

Nah, it's a tune by Teebee. I think it's actually called Destiny. I got it wrong Baffled

You're probably right about the perspective thing though. I personally don't rule Dillinja out, but that might be because I've only been listening to the great stuff for a couple of years, whereas 7 years of crap music might dissolution me a bit more Grin
