Every time I hear the name XXXChange, all I can think of is freaking hard to his beats in a packed, sweaty bar on New Years' '04! It's been a while since they broke the small bar circuit and now its expansion time. Here, Spank Rock's producer adds his percussive punch to Person's "Business Class(1)." Imagine new rock/soul vocals mixed with slow funk drums and an Italo sound kit. It's pretty crazy. I already know many of you will head straight for the instrumental(2), and I don't blame you – it's cleaner and sometimes you're not in the mood to hear a dude singing about how he only likes high maintenance breezies. The glitchy album mix(3) graces the flipside, along with an intense, glitchy electro remix of "Pharisee Pride(4)" by Outputmessage. Too bad no Instrumental for that one, the vocals get a little cheesy.
