Yes thats right people. After months of praise about High Contrast from yours truly, I was amazed to hear this tune. I actually laughed.
The tune samples 'Has It Come To This' by The Streets, 'Ripgroove' by Double 99 & 'Bodyrock' by Andy C & Shimon.
As someone posted on the drum and bass arena comments page - THERAPIST (Czech Republic) said: #39832 I probably miss what's the point of making 1 shitty track out of 4.
Surely this tune is a piss take, will never be licensed, and we won't have to hear it. Hopefully this sort of tune is not a sign of things to come, or else i'm going back to listening to cold chisel.
Apparently being caned by John B, Fabio and Hype.
You can hear the tune here - don't take my word for it, hear it for yourself, but i recommend you don't.

Tim open you eyes man!
Its a fukin piss take on the garage scene.
Its a "fuk you" to the garage scene dude.
Look at the title "Has it come to this" simply saying that has the garage scene reverted to remix old tainted love tune.
Tim its a piss take he really doesnt mean it.
Please dont taint mr contast for this.
Why on earth would High Contrast even want to risk damaging his reputation by producing a track as a piss-take of the garage scene?
Even if this does turn out to be true, there'll be enough people out there who'll think that the tune is legitimate and the damage will have been done.
The fact that it's being "caned" by John B, Fabio & Hype makes me think that it is actually a tune that is liked by some of the bigger names in the industry. I mean, you don't go out and drop serious dollars or pounds on getting a dub cut if you don't like the tune, do you?
He would have had to get permission to sample from the track, especially if it's a big mainstream one, and I doubt that they would have given it to him if he had said "Yeah, I'm just going to pull the piss out of the music you produce."
Satire has never really been a pervasive element in drum & bass.
Why would he do it, as I said as a fuk off to the garage scene, hearing something crap he has proberly went out and made it.
It wouldnt damage his rep if people with half a fuking brain thought about it. He has consitantly produce good tunes and then this. And with the name "Has it come to this", come on it could not be anymore obvious. There is a bit of tension between DNB and Garage in england, Iam not sure what its over maybe the garage scene has taken from D+B crowd. Zinc has also done this with 138 track with GQ over the top, if you listen to the lyrics hes blantenly dissing garage. He got death threats over that.
Right John B is a nutter and is know to drop wierd tracks, He played that John B ROCK dub as hes last tune here. Fabio proberly actually likes it because ladies like it and dosent realise. And hype is a huge shit stirer. Granted he does make Bingo beats, but this tune is definitely a piss take, as I said.
Samples, fuk dude most of garage is old jungle anyway, so I dont think they have to worry about asking permission.
The bassline is ripped of anyhow.
I cannot believe people cant see this.
"HAS IT COME TO THIS" doesnt that say it at all.
CHRIST!
Why does everyone laugh when they hear it???
Thats right its a piss take.
