Holy crap this is good! I found this in a budget bin and it is divine dub!

Best Dub ep Ever. Could touch the sky with the original.

This is such a beautiful EP, stunning remakes of Pub's -Summer.

I can only explain this record through arcane references to pre-capitalist law

The original version of Summer is a soothing lilt through country meadows, ambient, rhythmic and bright, meandering and substantial. The Vladislav Delay mixes hit right in the sweet spot of his output, providing deep, organic bubbling rhythms with a damp subterranean feel. Arovane participates at the highest levels as well, providing two extremely different mixes - the first a lush half-tempo wash coalesced by its bassline, with the mellowest Atol Scrap feel, and the second a rare 4-kick construction for Arovane with white chords rhythmically beating through the cold haze - an extremely high-caliber (sadly) CD-only track. Nick Rapaccioli echoes his contemporaneous output with sizzling touches and sustained chords in a persistant rhythmic frame. Most remarkable is that each remake stakes its claim well away from the feel of the original, producing excellent music in the process.

perhaps one of the best warm glitch tracks of all time. definitely the best on vertical form. its as good the first time then time 100. a good example of a turn of the century track.

This Japanese version is just a different pressing of the CD. No sound enhancement was made.

Of all the mixes of this track, my favorite is the original, which for me says something about the artist's great inspiration. Starting off on the trancy-repetitive side, just when you think you will be bored, this track takes off with some new variation that brings satisfaction to the neighborhood of twenty minutes or so. A great ambient track with trance inducing computer rythms at a medium level bpm. Luckily enough, the Vladislav Delay mix is included here for additional enjoyment.

I've yet to hear a duff Pub track!! Everything they do is just Exemplary. Beautiful serene tone poems with these almost aquatic pads that give their tracks an Organic feel. 'Summer' is no exception to the above as it immediately surrounds you in Ambient Lushness. I once listened to this whilst on a train travelling North & it transformed my mindset to life & my existence for about 15 minutes..Deep, life-affirming music!

If you are at all familiar with the dope/dubby minimal techno of BASIC CHANNEL or RHYTHM AND SOUND, then you'll know what to expect on this PUB release. It actually feels more like an album than a remix CD. After all, the first track is over 16 minutes, the 2nd over 18, and the whole CD clocks a bit over 60 minutes. Track one, the "original" mix reminds me of HALLUCINATOR or FLUXION with the ambient soothing flavor. Then a little edge and heavy low frequency bass is added in the "Delay Configuration" tracks (2 & 5) offering a great variety to the work. My personal favorite, however, is the Nick Rapaccioli remake, which sings Rhythm and Sound right from the get go. Surprisingly, the percussion brings the tempo a bit quicker than expected, but works and does not draw away from the soothing dubby piece. This is an incredible CD that can live in your CD player for quite some time without feeling like many other 'remix' CDs that would not have a lasting effect.

Vladislav Delay is the new Master of relaxing soundscapes. "Summer original" is an 18 min+ long suberb trip. It will save you a lot of money on your gas bill during wintertime, that warm this beautiful track is. Pub - Summer can thrive with the best the Orb has ever made.
