1Overall Description
Full of variations on a melodic hook and some very smooth breakbeats, this one fits the mood mold somewhere between Hybrid and Chicane. Around 1:30 some very interesting bass drum echoes come in along with some sweet bassdrum, rim rolls (think Hybrid) and then at 2:25 the song completely switches to a lighter mood and melody...then at 2:50 yet another all introducing completely fresh new moods...wow....then it switches back to a more upbeat variation on the main. My only complaint about this one is the beginning doesn't even begin to lead on the depth that goes on at the end of the song (YES THIS COULD BE MISTAKEN FOR A HYBRID RELEASE...IT'S THAT SMART).

The production is great but, ultimately more importantly, there is a LOT of soul and different moods going into this track and it has excellent last-ability because of this (IE it's like 95% of charting songs that sound great the first 2-3 times but then quickly grow old/redundant). I want to hear more! :-)
