    Default Someone has to know this song

    Because I've heard it in at least 2 different clubs, one in Boston and one in SD.

    It sounds a lot like Vast or maybe a bit like Enigma, but probably not either. Just very dark, trace/ goth.

    Not to many understandable words in the song, starts off with very Matrix-y vibrating notes and picks up pace a bit with some muted drumming. All of the lyrics are really muted too, in a man's voice, but all I can ever pick out is "Stop(?)--catch my breath--".....

    It actually really reminds me of the intro to the Sopranos' theme song.

    I don't know, offhand, but now I want to get it, lol! I suppose you could try a lyrics search, even if there aren't many lyrics. It might work. There are several websites with lyrics search functions.

    All a lyrics search has gotten me some soft pop-ish song by a group called Westlife.

    I'm also wondering if it might be Butthole Surfers or Placebo....

    I'm a placebo fanatic - know every single song of theirs by heart - and it doesn't sound like any of theirs. What's the tempo like?

    I just lost my whole fucking post by hitting the back button. Let's see if I can remember what I wrote:

    ^^No, it's not techno. I probably shouldn't have related it to trance.

    Its sound is very close to Rob D's 'clubbed to death' after its tempo picks up, maybe a little faster, but it's construction sounds a lot more like Moby's 'if things were perfect' because of the muttered bursts of lyrics. There's a point when the lyrics are ended abruptly for a sharp synthesizer note(s) before the drumming continues and the lyrics fade back in.

    The drumming itself sounds more tribal then drum-set style, if that makes sense. I said it might be placebo because I might relate the synth sounds to Pure Morning.....

    It turned out to be Tricky's "Excess." I've never heard of the band before and I didn't realize that it's the same song that has the "I believe in people..." etc female voice. It was played at my new club today and I ran straight up to the DJ booth.

    Thanks everyone, for trying to help me figure it out. I know how misleading my description was!!

    Oh I love Tricky! That reminds me I need to play them again soon. Glad you found the song--now watch I will have had it all along but didn't think of it.

    I just found out this is track 13 from Queen of the Damned soundtrack, which means I have played it dozens of times at least.
