quoting myself on the first time i heard this "Awwwww Wit!"
a popular Scottish term which means to me, "that is fucking amazing!"
the start i admit is pretty low, yet fast, somewhat depressing beat.
then Sarah Howells vocals start, what a voice, sooo soothing/calming. i think she has been monitoring my life somehow. some parts describe me, then again, others don't.
After her vocals start the beat brightens up gradually, then at parts when shes singing, it beat drops right down, quietens.. and then goes with the context of the lyrics

Hi kayleigh,
Is this version of "Find Yourself" the correct one?

I at first listened to a remix and then realized it wasn't the correct one, then found this, which I enjoyed a lot more!

JUSTICE - † (CROSS)

1. Genesis
2. Let There Be Light
3. D.A.N.C.E.
4. Newjack
5. Phantom
6. Phantom ptII
7. Valentine
8. Tthhee Ppaarrttyy
9. DVNO
10. Stress
11. Waters Of Nazareth
12. One Minute To Midnight

this is the album that OFFICIALLY got me into Techno, and i have MusicBanter to thank for that.
before i was never really that keen on techno, it was too heavy for me with the heavy bass and twisting sounds.
Cross is perfect.
In my opinion, when i do my reviews. i tend to listen to that album.
and now Genesis is on, it makes me want to get up, and go seek out a party, so i can get a good dance! i love a song that makes me feel like this.
and now onto the favourites

D.A.N.C.E. in my opinion is playful, its not really a serious song, it sounds sort or like a group of children singing, and the title, well thats what it makes me want to do!
i think this is one of my favourites cos it has the deep beat in the background, in the foreground of the song its playful, fun and not to serious. which i like in an album. The lyrics are awesome aswell. The lyrics are very laid back, i never wanted to post them as well its far too much to post.

Do the D.A.N.C.E
1234, fight!
Stick to the B.E.A.T
Get ready to ignite
You were such a P.Y.T
Catching all the lights
Just easy as A.B.C
That's how we make it right (x3)

Do the D.A.N.C.E
Stick to the B.E.A.T
Just easy as A.B.C

Streaming through the radio
Dancing all around
Spread the word in stereo
At the speed of sound

Do the Dance (Do the Dance)
The way you move is a mystery
Do the dance
You're always there for music and me (x2)

Do the D.A.N.C.E (Do the Dance, Do the Dance)
Stick to the B.E.A.T (Do the Dance, Do the Dance)
You were such a P.Y.T (Do the Dance, Do the Dance)
Just easy as A.B.C (Do the Dance, Do the Dance)

As strong as you might
Working day and night
Whatever happens
Do the DANCE (do the dance)

Under the spotlights
Neither black nor white
It doesn't matter
Do the Dance (do the dance)

i picked the apropriate lyrics as those are the playful parts of vocals, the song is supposed to illustrate two male teenagers on their way to a "rave". i find the video very old school. from the animations on the tshirts to the bright lettering, the animations on the tshirts also, if you look closely represent the lyrics! (im getting this from the video).

NOW ON TO PHANTOM PT I & II
part one
very electronic, if you couldnt tell this was an electonica tune. your an idiot

it sounds very digital and futuristic (IMO)
i cant really find the word to describe it? it just makes me soooo,

haha.
same with part two. please leave your opinions on these two?

I don't get it.

I've not heard this album, but I heard Uffie was on a track (possibly Thheee Parrrrtyy, or however many letters are in each word). I like Uffie, so I'll check that track out.

CanwllCorfe · 10-14-2009, 05:19 PM

I'm not a big fan of them. They sound outdated imo and I'm not too keen on the religious overtones either. I like electro but just not their style. I'm quite finicky

2 letters a letter (if thats even understandable haha) whats Uffie? Tthhee Ppaarrttyy is pretty good, i only planned on writing about Phantom I & II and Tthhee Ppaarrttyy originally, but i got carried away and wrote about D.A.N.C.E. so i cut 'The Party' out (cant be arsed writing it like that everytime its annoying.) but according to iTunes thats my favourite tune!

She's a young up and coming French lyricist/rapper. She does a lot of work in the electro scene, with Mr. Oizo (if you've heard of him?). But yeah, I heard she was on this track, unless it's some sort of bonus track and I'm mistaken.

I haven't gotten around to listening to Justice but from what I had heard they're apparently do breakbeat?
And then someone else told me that they make instrumental tracks to the likings of Ratatat.

I'm confused.
