Hear Richard X's mix of Bizarre Love Triangle online now...

what's all this talk about the poor dodo? it can't help being extinct.

very catchy remix...better than the segue between Erasure's "A Little Respect" and the 12" mix of BLT that I heard out at a club tonight.

'Bizarre Love Triangle-94' is exactly the same as the Stephen Hague remix on 'Married To The Mob', bar a slight change in reverb/effects and the fact that you hear the 'doo doo doo' bit after the first chorus. it's the bit that Gillian usually played on with a synth string pad live, just sung by Barney. Classic bit - if Stephen Hague had put it on the 94 version he'd have created the definitive mix.

Looking at that Warners Promo CD, two things occur: Firstly, there's another 'Everything's Gone Green Mix' on there (Martin Buttrich Remix), and the 'Temptation' and 'BLT' mixes are referred to as 'full length' - take it that means the seven inch versions out tomorrow will be edited down? If so, even more need for a CD single! Must track down this promo...

just heard it - think its really good , especially the intro

Very nice! My only complaint is that the chorus lets you down just a bit after the arpeggio. You have a great build up falling into an empty sounding chorus so you lose lot of impact after the transition. The synth bass sounds fantastic.

With his Jetstream mix, I was expecting some Hooky in there.

Nevertheless, it's quite a good remix... I think I prefer it to the Crystal Method remix.

Spotty,

Listen very closely during the verses! Hooky's bass is there!

Actually, on my third listen now, and I hear Hooky's bass during the verses AND choruses. the parts are quiet though.

But not the big bass solo ending the album version (orgasmic bass solo might I add)

Note that before I bought Brotherhood, BLT for me was Substance's version, so I'm used to this song without the solo... ;)

I think any remix serious about BLT should have the big Bass synth crescendo included at the end.The brotherhood version has yet to be bested for me.
