Release Date: 27 January 2014
Label / Cat#: Borderline Music / BORDM038

Original Mix



Having posted the last official release from Borderline, I thought it'd be best to also put up BORDM038, which kicked off one of my favorite artwork designs of any label.

I remember the redesign being preceded by a teaser of sorts which was uploaded on the main Borderline YT channel. If my mind serves me right, it had Activa's The Fall in the background (part of Borderline's first ever release) and featured a neat little transition from the old to the new design. Sadly I didn't save that vid, but it would be cool to track it down if it's still available somewhere. Does anybody have it?

@s3baman 'member this one?

Later Edit: Good thing the Web Archive is around. Here's the teaser vid I was talking about. It'll switch from Flash to whatever other player it sees fit, but it does play. Honestly pretty chuffed to have found it again.

Really comes alive in the breakdown with the stomping breakbeats!

It's a really powerful track although i would have liked the kick to be toned down a bit more.

I just wish it blew up and had an actual climax.
A more standard psytrance kick as opposed to the 'steroid' kick would have made this sound much better, as well.

Love the way this progresses. The second breakdown at 6:06 really brings it to life and completes the journey, though I would have liked the melodic verse afterwards with the bassline key changes to go on for longer.
