I saw heard this 12" the other day and the track in question sounds like a straight ahead remix. I'm surprised that the Basement Boys of all people would do an unauthorized mix, they're not exactly Sasha or anything, so I thought it must have been done with permission. I've always held the Basement Boys in pretty high regard, at least. Does anyone know the opinion of UR, because, as I say, I am surprised that this has come from the Basement Boys (if it is unauthorized)? Jonny. P.S. That Warp review tested my delete button - it works fine ;)
