BASS MECHANIC YEEEEEARGH!
You know what? Martin Buttrich's promo remix of Everything's Gone Green (released alongside the WFTSC mixes in 2005) is the best rework that's ever been done of a NO song. It retained the feel that made the original song so special in 1981, while bringing it into a fully modern context. Every time I drop it on a dancefloor the crowd goes nuts. I have no idea why it wasn't officially released, but then they got nominated for a Grammy for Guilt Is A Useless Emotion and that never got a proper single release, either.
Oh, Rob Gretton. We miss you so much. You whipped the band into shape, and they've been aimless without you.
If we had to slog through '08 remixes of any track it may as well be The Perfect Kiss. I want to hear that redone by Rex The Dog, Justice, Jody Den Broeder, DFA, and CSS.
