Being a Dirty South fan and having praised the YouTube recordings of this, I know don't feel this Remix as much as I did. I'm picking the original. I'm not surprised Seb and Ax worked so much on it, it's so powerful that it feels hard to beat. I think Dirty South had a good idea and I see him trying to make the track epic but it doesn't work much for me. I think the strings that I once loved on the clips that were around now sound too simple to me. Hope we can get some other remixes but original works just fine :D

I think DS did the only right thing: any attempt to make a "banging" or "driving" remix would def fail - so he gave the track a melancholic touch - I really like that!

BUT:

The violins don't sound harmonic -I would prefer sustained strings, not these "short" ones (can't explain it better in English ;) ).
You don't hear it that much beside the bassline & kicks - but it gives the track a ... "agitation" which doesn't blend in the track properly. This is at least my impression...

All in all: great ideas - but not 100% mature...

Yeah i agree,the notes are too short,he should of made a 4 bar melody,but instead he squeezed it into 2!!It would of made the track more Epic..IMO

Yes indeed - it sounds a bit "choppy" - and imho not 100% harmonic...

hi all,

so the dirty south remix will be available on beatport from today - thank you for the support you have already shown and please continue that loyal support and let us know what you think.

unfortunately those 'nice people' at trackitdown released the track over 2 weeks early and have leaked the dirty south remix to the internet. so as you can imagine we are really pissed off as it has f***ed up our whole campaign. anyway you lucky people can get the remix from beatport early now!

oh and you might not be surprised to hear that you won't be able to buy any axtone tracks on trackitdown as i will be taking the whole catalogue down from their site.

enjoy the remix and hopefully we will have some new remixes very soon.

cheers

That's unfortunate to hear, James. I guess they got what the deserved when they show no sign of profesionality.
Anyway; I have bought the track and I really like it. I think it goes perfectly with I Found U (Classic Edit).

Thanks for the update! Shame to see Trackitdown screwed up as I felt they had a good back catalogue of some harder-to-find tracks... oh well!

Here's the link for everyone's ease of use:
