There are actually 3 recent Killing Joke singles; "Millenium", "The Pandemonium
Single", and "Pandemonium In Dub". Of the 3, "Millenium" has the lowest mix of
Techno/Acid/Dub to "normal" mix ratio. All 3 CDs are at home, so I can't give
you specifics, but "Millenium" has 2 "normal" straightforward
Ministry-cum-Middle Eastern riff-a-rama mixes (like the one that was on MTV's
"120 Minutes" last night, alongside a clip of Kraftwerk doing "Pocket
Calculator" from the 1981 tour that suddenly appeared out of nowhere, causing
me to nearly fall off my chair ... but I digress).
For IDM'ers, the "Pandemonium In Dub" single is probably the best bet. A long
remix of the old KJ chestnut "Change" courtesy of Kris "Thrash" Weston is
included. (I mention this even though Thrash takes great glee in flaming me
over on alt.exotic-music and alt.music.brian-eno (-: )
