It is Rob Brown, not Richard Brown, who I believe is half of Autechre.
Could they by any chance be related? [(c) Private Eye]

Like *des*, I must disagree with you on the first point - remixing a 2 year old
track hardly qualifies as a "bold new direction", however unlike him I cannot
take issue with your appreciation of the music, especially the Autechre mix.
NB I reckon that mix plays just about as well at 45 as it does at 33, for those
that buy the vinyl...

My copy is a double vinyl pack with 6 mixes in all, none of which is the
original. They vary from danceable techno, like the original with the rough
edges smoothed off, to very laid back and almost unrecognisable, (ie the
Autechre mix))
