The Japanese issue of the Philip Glass orchestration came with a 3-inch CD containing the Aphex remix, which consists of Aphex mixing Bowie's vocals back in to Glass' orchestration, and fiddling around with it a little. It's very haunting and lush, I think. There's an MP3 (or two?) floating around the net, so you might look for that (it's how I heard it), or you could hear RealAudio at aphextwin.nu: http://www.aphextwin.nu/explore/98137560114801.shtml -Adam _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
