Sunfreaks – Counting Down The Days (Axwell Vox)

[trav]

heard this new vocal mix on Pete Tong's Friday night show...what does everyone think? Personally I prefer the non-vocal Riding the Wave version

Hear hear.

Yeah, not so keen myself. Just sounds a bit forced and wrong, but then maybe that's because I am so used to the original Axwell mix, which is still great.

I guess it's just more likely to sell to the masses if there's a vocal so you can't blame them for trying to be a bit more commercial and potentially raking in the moolah...

A bomb!!

You can listen the track here: www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/petetong/index.shtml

I think jb ist right - it doesn't fit 100% togehter - it's the same with the original track:

Actually it's called "Riding the waves" - and without any vocals which I prefer - and afterwards they put some vocals on it and renamed it in "Counting down the Days".
For me the "Axwell Remix" (without vocals) is better - you can mix acapellas in it anyway - for instance "Valley of House"

by the way: it's still a weapon!

I prefer the mix without the vocal, but the mix with the vocal isnt that bad either !

It´s funny how Axwell uses that loop... sampling Nomad's "(I wanna give you) Devotion , an oldskool classic track from 1990.

It sounds at least quite similar - but this has already been discussed

This track is played like 3 times a day on Belgian national (mainstream) radio, but they don't mention Axwell's name once!
