Yes, it has the same "darkness" and I recognise some drum sounds which sound like QVDUS.

I can say I like this track. A lot better than Glory. A lot. There's two parts in the song: a sequenced bit and a chorus with "choir". The choir has a typical JMJ flavor to it, sounds, drums. This feels more like a joint effort than M86's Glory is.

The JMJ remixes are quite identical to the original mix, which is how it always should have been since the 90s. Both have a guitar-sound halfway, which make it sound a bit like Rammstein. In fact, I can hear Till Lindemann sing over this song quite easily. There's a nice 'piano' line in it too, which is not heard in the original mix, the non-extended remix having it more than the extended mix. The original mix has an interesting transpose and some sequenced effects which remind me of Equinoxe 6.
