jonattonyeah A bit of both but more about “Fire”. It’s just so….long. I can’t imagine how anyone would fit it into any set outside of the year 2002. Did anyone other than Sasha even play it?
The intro is def too long, though once the main part kicks in I think it’s quite hypnotic and so I don’t mind that it just keeps on going.
I also think it could have worked in earlier prog sets from 98 or so, and would have fit on say Tenaglia’s London, or even the building up parts of Sasha’s San Fran. But for sure I do struggle to think how someone might fit it in to a contemporary set. I still like listening to it regardless of that.
As for others playing it - it seems to have been included in John Kelly’s Essential Mix in 2002 for at least one, ha. Surely jocks like Tenaglia and Moshic must have done as well.
