This is seriously addictive, i'm still trying to figure out what the sample says but i think it's a great song.
There's another play here without gay storm waffling over everything at around 10 mins in. It's practically the same set from Gammer just without an MC and no Darren.

"one of the biggest DJ's in the world..... ..for hardcore music.."
One of the things I can't understand about Gammer, and this is something I've talked to loads of people about and it puzzles them too. While mixing the way he does takes skill, it always sounds out of tune. You can't put vocals of a song on the top of any old song. Like when he mixed the track "Flashlight" onto of that other track...? Awful! Completely out of tune. The vocals didn't even sound as though they were synced properly...
I didn't like the scratching either, but I can't be bothered to explain that. Short story is, if you scratch, it has to be roughly with the beat. Gammer just seems to do it randomly. I can't say I'd have enjoyed this mix. I tend to hear out-of-tune and out-of-sync stuff even if I'm drunk on the dancefloor. The MC's would have pissed me off too.

I know what you're saying but... there is nothing wrong with that Flashlight acapella over Xfer! Sounds completely fine.

You couldn't release the track with that vocal over it, that's true but I don't think the point of it was to show off his skills at mixing acapellas in key. Just a bit of simple scratching and chucking a well-known vocal over a track there and then.
