Whilst this has its fingers in Fleetwood Mac's Big Love, it was actually a remix of Linus Loves version VH1 initially. You can likely hear the re-created chords. Linus did a version of Fleetwood Mac's Stand Back (with Sam Obernik) and I munged the simple "stand back" vocal with the Big Love/VH1 chords. 

Very little, other than inspiration for the chords however remains of either song. This is peak 2000s accessible house material (Stonebridge, Gadjo, Modjo etc.). It is perhaps a little too "radio", than I would like, but it does have mixable run-ins and outs.

Stand Back

I've gone through a period recently where everything sounds like a deadmau5 track without me actually trying to even create anything like a deadmau5 track... This was supposed to be a more Nora En Pure type track, more downtempo. Instead it turned out a bit angry.

Guppy

I loved Bessey's original, but it had a bit in the drop I didn't like and the hugely uplifting pianos weren't about long enough to really milk the energy --- in my humble opinion. So this version does little to the original except a new drumline, FX and a different drop.


Dangerous

Hugo Cantarra's Edit was the basis for this rerub and all the credit is his and Claptone's. This version is shortened, chopped up and heavily processed so it can be played in sets.


No Eyes (feat. JAW)

Looking at the tracklist, this looks sickenly commercial. Something you might hear at Yates' or Chicagos' party bar on a Friday night. Well, yes, but no. It was made for my brother, who at the time celebrated his 40th birthday and the idea was to visit as many eras as possible through his life. It didn't really work like that, but it is eclectic enough. All the tracks are not the originals; not a one. Each one is beefier and housey to at least bring some credibility. Don't get me wrong, it's cheese madness here, but it's not completely cheesy.

I don't like some of the tracks I picked; looking at you Visage and Sting. I don't think they fit. Also, the George Michael accapella isn't in key with the intro - this is because it was two separate tracks pushed together live and only after starting did I realise they didn't really go; alas!
