    A good selection of remixes on this cd single, including the excellent downtempo original version. The radio edit is based on DJ Wink's Hardhouse Mix.

      You will know the Tweekin' Acid Funk version, which became a blueprint for both big beat and UK hard house. You may be familiar with the other versions of the first release (Wink's Hardhouse mix, the 611 Acid Groove), but the true ear-opener is the "album version", only featured on the German release.

      So to say: this track started as a downtempo acid-triphop number, with the unfiltered, undistorted, unabridged vocal "love is an opening, an opening to a higher state of consciousness", making the track more suitable for achieving contentment in your yoga session rather than setting dance floors on fire. The track was part of a concept named "The Deep & Slow" and initially not even meant to be released as a single. However, three dancefloor-minded versions were released, of which "Version 3 - Tweekin' Acid Funk" became a landmark dance track.
