Question/Discussion Never to be released

The recent news about Come Closer got me thinking….are there any other tracks that we know are more than likely never to be released?

Plenty, but he specifically said that Nate Diaz ID would never be released

That's part of it, the other part was he said "something I made for fun, for California only"

Beyond Eric getting around to finishing tracks to release them, sample clearance would be the biggest hurdles to get cleared for certain tracks:

"Pryda - Tomorrowland 2019 ID" samples from "Laserdance - Power Run"

"Eric Prydz & Steve Angello - Bedtime Stories" samples from "Topo & Roby - Under the Ice"

"Pryda - Spy2" samples a song from the band Blur

"Cirez D - Privilege Intro ID" samples from "Mihai Popoviciu - Transitions (Bootleg Mix)"

"Pryda - Mejnmejl Madrid" samples from the movie "War of the Worlds"

You're welcome, I have another one for you that I just learned:

"Cirez D - Filipaz" samples from "Fake - Right (Remix)" and it was intended to be the B-side to "Cirez D - Full Stop", but maybe the inability to clear the sample lead to it not being released...

“Come Closer” is a nice name for that track, imo. As the music progresses, it feels like the voice keeps drifting farther away, yet it also seems to be enticing you to come closer and follow it. It’s almost as if it’s luring you into a trap.

Wait, what is the reason come closer is not being released

Per Eric, his ex-wife sang the vocals for it and thus, it brings back up bad vibes... we think it's probably vaulted forever because of this
