well, theres 2 underworld remixes which are quite interesting. one slow
downtempo "soft remix", which imo is the best of these two. classic
underworld strings with some noice n some extracts from the original song.
the other one, "hard mix", is a totally new song reminding me of the
original "born slipy" or "tin there". quite trancy, quity monotonous and
qute fun.
plastikmans remix is also really cool. he's remixing an instrumental song,
"painkiller", so thereby he hasn't got any prolems with the lyrics...:)
however, kinds slow, kinda soft and good as well. of course he's taken
away the fat drums and replaced them with y' know the usual 808ish
drumsounds n soume noice.
haven't found any mixes by dj shadow yet. sad but true.
there's remixes by "one inch punch" and "united" as well, but they're not
really good. i have the 12" coming on friday and from what i've heard
there are some tracks only available on that one, so if there is a dj
shadow remix it've gotta be on that 12"...
sorry all for the bandwidth.
cheers,
franz.
