This is what you call audio porn! So good

Teasers:

[Orbi]

You know, I hate this much less than I thought I would. Second half (excluding The Eighth Note and to a lesser extent the Amazed Remix of Second Match) is much weaker than the first but the tracks aren't repulsive. Actually, Utta Wanka isn't good. And the dubstep section in it doesn't help either. Punk Fanatic is just bad too. I could tolerate the preview but the vocals are really band and sound autotuned and shit which is just hilarious in a bad way.

I guess one of the best things about this album is that it means the release of the winners of the First Match remix comp are closer since the Geck-o Remix is so good.

seems strange that the ONLY collab on this album is Brennan Heart. compared to other recent albums which have had usually about 3-5.

anyway...

01. DDD 2-013
not bad but not that great, the original is already TNT's most popular song so was going to be hard to top, seems unnecessary.

02. Scared
enjoy the main break, Tuneboy inspired.

03. Dial T For TNT (Repumped!)
one of my favourites from the album, can, again, definately hear the tuneboy influence in the main break.

04. Countdown
all i can say is thank god this song is an anti climax, that melody in the middle is absolutely....horrible

05. Punk Fanatic (with Brennan Heart)
well either hate it or love it, i don't mind this track, was expecting brennan hearts usual synth to be all over this, but its not. pitching is interesting, if nothing else it adds some variety to the album.

06. First Match 2011
dunno why TNT have suddenly got obsessed with using british accents all over their tracks but its a bit grating after a while. This WILL be a popular festival track.

07. TN.. Who?!
lyrics are verrrrrry wanky...

08. Naked
boring, boring, boring track.

09. Good Times
has a fairly good melody, not a bad track

10. The 8th Note

11. Uttawanka
again, the british accent, terrible track. and wtf, a dubstep section? dont mind what is known as 'dubstyle' but that dubstep bit, is purely a grab at popularity.

12. Second Match (Amazed Remix)
a pretty by the numbers remix

so really its a dissapointing album from one of the most recognised and popular hardstyle producer pairings, could have used more collabs e.g. the brennan heart collab is something a bit different when compared to the same british accents in the songs, the same kicks etc

also could have used some more inspired remixes than an 'amazed remix' considering hes new to the label and hasn't varied the remix much from the usual Saifam feel, it may as well have been remixed by TNT themselves.

[tim dawes]

the 8th note is my pick by far of this.

uttawanka would be better as a dub, ddd 2-013 is epic, i also quite like the amazed remix, although it's definitely not up to the original 2 mixes (second match is probably my favourite tnt tune ever)

they definitely like the english accent over there at saifam HQ. hopefully the actual releases spawn dub versions.

[Ripcat]

Some really good tracks but not a solid album, either way nice to hear new tracks.

[Tosh1R]

i lolled at them using the lyrics from clubbin by Wildstylez in good times.. other then that first half of the CD is better then the second half. nuff said.

[just say maybe]

Upon initial listening I think this is quite good. Favourite tracks so far Dial T For TNT (Repumped!) and the 8th Note. I agree about a dub for ultra wanka. Is a good song now but would be a great song with some of the vocals removed. I feel like seeing "Puta Madre. Puta, puta madre!" along with it.

The Countdown kick was definitely done by Tuneboy.

So far, so good.
