Search - 666 :: Paradox

Not as good as the album version

"Why did 666 make a new radio version, when the album version was sooo much better? The start of the song is hugely annoying with the do-do-do-paradox chant wearing a little to thin after a while, and all of the catchiness of the album version is gone as one of the best synth lines I've ever heard is not on the track.I guess they tried to make up for it with the inclusion of the CD ROM component, which did cheer me up a bit, but alas the mixes are all strikingly familiar to each other which only adds salt to the wound. Do yourself a favour and spend a little extra for the album which DOES contain quality songs."

"This is great hard house with a bit of a twist: the Spanish lyrics and the seemingly ubiquitous House Nation siren sound (featured also on Klubbheads and Venga Boys tracks). The CD-ROM track has Amokk and Alarma videos which have some fascinating insect and toy imagery. It also has samples of other tracks from the album, so be sure to check it out!"
