Track Listing: 12" [PLAT82]: Vicious Circles - Moogwai Remix Vicious Circles - Andy Gray's Grayed Out Dub 12: [PLAT 82X] Vicious Circles - Max Graham Remix Vicious Circles - Andy Gray's Grayed Out Remix CD: Vicious Circles - Moogwai Remix Edit (3.41) Vicious Circles - Grayed Out Remix (8.11) Vicious Circles - Max Graham Remix (8.05)

Released 12/2000 on Platipus Records as a CD single and 2 x 12". Written and produced by Simon Berry. I've only got the CD single of this version of Vicious Circles. Here, the Moogwai Remix stands out as a superior trancer, keeping all the elements of the original version whilst bringing the track nicely up to date. However, this edit fades out really badly - criminal! Needless to say I'll be hunting out the vinyl version for the full length mix. Both the Grayed Out Remix and Max Graham Remix are quite deep and progressive in style, although the Max Graham Remix should be given a seeing into just for the mid-track build-up which really screams - should get the dancefloor going!. Note the f**k-up with the cover art on the sleave which credits this tracks as "Vicious Circle" by "Vicious Circles", rather than "Poltergeist".
