I didn't actually like this at the time. I thought it was a poor follow up to Elysium. However, It grew on me over the years. I just see it as another track now, rather than any relation to Elysium.

Same feeling here, it's nothing to do with Elysium tbh, the original was a good track.

I like this one as well. It is similar to the original but has a slight different take on it. Different to a lot of Hixxy's other stuff as well

I don't think this one has particularly aged well.

It would be a lot better with a different bass sound.

Yes. That's my issue, I didn't really notice back in 2001. Sounds flat now.
Kick is weak too, which is unlike Scott Brown.

Darren Styles used that riff for his relatively new tune - Switch.

It's a rip of a 1994 Hard Trance track. I actually prefer this version.

I've always liked this version. Technically it was made in 1999, but released in 2000.
Fat thudding kick. I think musically it's pretty damn good. Different feel for sure, when comparing it to the original Visa mix.

I still like The First Parable, but it was always about the flip on that release. As for the Soaked (aka Kaos) version of All I Need ... That's pretty cool as well. Remember hearing Vibes drop it late '99. I was always a sucker for all things DJ Kaos / Go Mental Records tho.
(Note: Yeah the aforementioned was Raving Mad, but you know)

Yeah. First time was at 'The Millennium Jam'. I was too.
I remember going up to Flip Records on my birthday in March 2000 and buying a load of the Go Mental 'Gold Series'.

This track proper reminds me of 2000. The best mix for me, along with Demand's 1997 mix.

Nothing beats the original for me, remember when it first turned up. If that Justin Time remix at the same synth for the break, I reckon it would have been better imo.
