Um, aren't they basically the straight tracks, with a trancey donk-donk-donk thrown on top? I do that at home on my turntables all the time. PF is especially easy to do it to, since the drummer (Nick Mason?) always used a click track. Besides, AFAIK, they're bootlegs. I'm waiting for a real remix job. I can imagine an Autechre reconstruction of Astronomy Domine, or whatever. Until then, I prefer the originals, thank you. BTW, anything after The Wall seems worthless to me, since it lacks Roger Waters' cynical edge. Dave Gilmore is a great guitarist and all, but he needs Waters to leaven his tendency to fall back on gorgeous guitar textures that don't mean a damn thing.
