Nebula II were probably best known for this track and &#8220;Atheama&#8221;, and while &#8220;Atheama&#8221; is great, this is my favorite &#8211; massive low fi descending synth line,  a great  slow down\/speed up breakdown, solid breakbeats (not many early tunes I can think of used the Funky Nassau break other than Sonz of a Loop Da Loop &#8220;Far Out&#8221;),  good vocal drops (&#8220;Let&#8217;s Do it&#8221; , &#8220;The Dreamer&#8221; etc )&#8230; in general it&#8217;s just a mad, energetic, awesome hardcore tune.    The remix is good as well, especially with the ridiculously over the top bass which drops about 3 minutes in, distorting and squashing down the drums more than in any other oldskool track I&#8217;ve heard.   I was going to post that as well, but I think I&#8217;ll save it for another day.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.discogs.com\/Nebula-II-Flatliners-COD-Rider\/master\/64482\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/blog\/images\/nebula_ii.jpg\"><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"\/blog\/audio\/Nebula II - Flatliners.mp3\">Nebula II &#8211; Flatliners<\/a><br \/><audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-1990-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"\/blog\/audio\/Nebula%20II%20-%20Flatliners.mp3?_=1\" \/><a href=\"\/blog\/audio\/Nebula%20II%20-%20Flatliners.mp3\">\/blog\/audio\/Nebula%20II%20-%20Flatliners.mp3<\/a><\/audio>\n<p>Also, while I&#8217;m posting Nebula II stuff, here&#8217;s a remix of &#8220;Atheama&#8221; done by me and a friend a couple of years ago as part of the &#8220;back2you&#8221; remix competition.
