It was played by SUPERSTRINGS in Resonation Radio 203 (ADE Special) last year. Quite like this, the melody caught my ears at the first heard.

I uesd to think that it's a SUPERSTRINGS rework of Driftwood - Freeloader.

Driftwood - Freeloader, included in ASOT Classics Vol.6

That's a good shout. To me it reminds me of Barthezz - On The Move. Has that kind of bouncy vibe, but can now hear Freeloader too.

Expect it to do well when it's released. He's not really promoted it much yet.

Melody reminds me of Jordan suckley - Ritual too much or maybe its the track structure. Pass.

I’m a big fan of Ben and he is different but I am not feeling this one. Not his strongest release but I respect he is pushing the boundaries.

Way too simple and cheesy, is this even concidered trance?

I see it's had a name change and been released as "THE WHIP".

Is that the contribution Superstrings had? :sneaky:

Just heard a guy from Superstrings on ASOT say it reminds them of "Barthezz - On The Move" which was the first thing I thought of when I first heard it months ago.

No shit.. it doesn’t “remind” … that FX sample is probably just taken from it and used. Haven’t inspected it yet, but I feel like it might be sampled. If not, it’s obviously recreated to be an “on the move” fx sample. You didn’t need an interview for that.

Stuck in my head.. Really liking it. And its not "obviously recreated to be an “on the move” ", lol. Happens many time when producing that after you finished a track, its very similar to something else

Read properly.

I said specifically it’s the FX sample.
