That’s why I’m a “Belfunk” guy. She’ll be like, “oh shit you’re so sensual…now give me a pounding like that bassline does.”
Xpander is for married people.
Xpander or Belfunk?
jonattonyeah that is an exceptional take.
“Xpander my 3rd reich lads” said Hitler to his SS liaison officer, fist pumping, looking down at a giant map of Europe.
I am absolutely loving the state of this thread.
mono-stereo no real German would accept xpander.
jonattonyeah Xpander is for married people.
For people who live in Surbiton and New Malden.
Total loosers essentially.
Belfunk but let’s be honest Be As One is better than both, purest e-trance of the highest order.
Ever heard it on a decent system with a mitsi down your gullet?
zackster Yeah they would, it’s practically a German word.
zackster He was Austrian.
mono-stereo he would have been shocked to find out that his favorite Dj, Dj Rush, was african american.
Baffling.
Take the L, Hugo!

In all seriousness for a second, Baja is a magnificent tune. The artwork for this record is also brilliant. He should start his next Fabric set with Baja.
Best dance music EP of all the times!

For the lazy.
Possibly the best thing he’s done.
Other than “Stage One” into “Sacred” GU134LIFE
Millsy It really is. A guy at the very peak of his powers.

This thread reads like an obit 
is there anyone here who doesn’t have a vinyl copy? i’m betting most do.
I have a signed copy
By Digweed.
What a year!

Probably my favourite of his remixes (and better than an excellent original) Arguably the best vocal trance record of all time. When that beat breaks over Jan’s great vocal at 6 mins 20, I’m flying
I do.
Not to be too cheesedick but I was a House head through and through when this came out. Remember listening to this EP and being blown away. The four tracks really are pretty damn unassailable. RIP Sasha. You had a good life.
jonattonyeah Agreed.
The EP is seminal. It will never be bettered.
Scorchio is was and always will be Sasha’s finest moment. Soy face all you want, but it’s the stone cold truth.

Trigonometry is underrated, love it. That melody

This part of Baja specifically always gets me, that key change:
Nothing but true fax from me

Interesting fact. Scorchio had that whole plane thing on its release poster
Also…released on 9/11 (a year off but who’s counting).
Planes. 9/11. Et cetera.
I cannot find proof of this but I was sent, I swear it, a promotional poster with September 11 on the thing. They do exist.
Sasha created not only the most racist track ever (Xpander) but he also caused 9/11.
jonattonyeah you are absolutely correct. As a fan of the greatest Sasha record of all time I know this story well.
This is all disappointing.
Where are we on “Emerald”?

mono-stereo discovering that Scorchio was part of a CIA plot to force the west into war with Iraq is a bit heavy, but I try not to let it taint the song itself.
jonattonyeah ne3 was the first proper mix comp that i bought … space maneuvers and belfunk were my two favorites when i had no idea what i was listening to. the whole thing sounded like music from outer space to me at the time. i definitely miss that feeling of discovery.
Osasha bin man-like was indeed responsible for the levelling the twon towers…
Well the full length version of the track is 9:43 long, which, when read on a 24hr clock is the same time as the Pentagon was hit (approximately).
How much more proof do you need…
