Yes i agree it is by far the best, keeping the heart of the original but adding something new and exciting , like all remixes should be
Originally posted by anita The Perfecto remix of True Faith! I LOVE the piano and the beat and it sounds GREAT when played in my car REAL LOUD!:D:D:D:D:Danita, i feel so extraordinary...
I am under the thinking that the Round & Round remixes were really the LAST really good ones...after that I think that about 98% are utter shite! But that's just my humble opinion. Now that said, the Someone Like You remixes were not all that bad actually...I did like the Gabriel & Dresdon mixes quite a bit.
Those 60 Miles An Hour mixes must be destroyed!!!!
All hail the Thieves Like Us Instrumental!!!!
Originally posted by 1966 I really hate all remixes, sorry. Never ever saw the f**king point to it. A complete waste of time, and a cheap way to cash in some more. I prefer ALL original New Order-mixes!!!By the way, I most definitely don't mean the original 12"-mixes of songs. They rule alright!
Long live the Dutch!!
felix....hts. i think its one of the few new order remixes that do the original track justice. for new tracks, i think they should recruit styrofoam or schneider tm.
And I certtainly do not understand all of the hoopla over the BLT (EDR) version...![]()
I thinks Bernard said it best during KW1 on 511 "Where's Hooky!?"
Good intentions...bad execution![]()
I know this is my first post, but I have been lurking for a very long time (don't post from work - new access from home...)
anyway - bit confused about the Record Mirror Mix of Subculture - people suggesting it's a Razormaid job, but if you mean the one on the 7inch single given away with Record Mirror in 1986 (or thereabouts) then, according to my copy, it is an official remix - "published by Bemusic/Warner Bros Music, Produced by New Order and remixed by John Robie" - I would put a scan of it up if I could work out how... haven't listened to it for years but from memory it is fantastic - might hook up my turntable and find out!
For the record (so to speak) the 7inch played at 33.3 and featured four tracks - the other three being by Ramonde, Hipsway (remember them?) and the Adventures (nope, me neither).
old thread coming up again. but nowadays it has to be the "electroclash version" of Confusion on "Arthur Baker vs. new order remixes '02" at least for me
Originally posted by iankuramacurtis ...I suddenly think of Blue Monday Vs Cant get u outta my head.it's disaster.
I like that one, really great!! Shocked a lot of people at my party two weeks ago. But they also liked it.
My vote goes to Felix Da Housecat for his mix of Here To Stay. Doesn't appear to be in the poll though...

Look again.
Call me old fashioned but i liked it when they only issued a single alternative/remixed call-it-what-you-will version. up to about 89 (check - troofaith remix disc, etc) . All this magimix, moulimix, bogle mix, fire island mix 10 bloody mixes of the one song just doesnt do it for me. LESS is More IMHO, particularly with NO. Don't you just think it dilutes the integrity and meaning of the original song when someone meddles with it and puts out umpteen versions (so far removed and often completely unidentifiable from the original). You should at least be able to discern the origins of the remix subject matter in a reworked version. Any remix should have a light touch IMHO and that does not mean just shoving some backbeats/base/dance beats behind it.

The David Kahne mix of 60 MAH is actually good.. the Supermen Lover is horrible.. but at least it's different.. the only "problem" here is that there is no other remixes.
I wouldn't mind it if we had an extended version or something.. but as the official 12" mix, it sucks!
As for Round & Round, it's actually the last track that had an "extended version" mix.. it seems to be a lost feature, I'd sure love to see those more often, when a song is good, you want it to last longer!

It's an edit of the Razordmaid Mix v1.0, it's says New Order & John Robbie as it says it on Low-Life... because they are credited for the track.
But if you listen to both mixes, it's the same thing.
They "officialized" the remix by releasing this version.. and to be honest, it's probably the best remix Razormaid did for New Order.. v2.0 and v3.0 suck as well ;)

I don't agree on the Spooky mixes though.. the Minimix IS better than the original version, hence why they used that one for the video! (As the Perfecto version of World is, at least for me!)

My man, Superstar New York-by-way-of-Cleveland DJ Doug Beck allegedly submitted a remix of 60 Miles an Hour; how the record company passed on it -- whatever it sounded like -- and actually burned the Superman Lovers mix onto a CD is incomprehensible.
I was going to suggest that we all ask pretty please with sugar on top for a copy, but Mr. Beck's web site (dougbeck.net) has disappeared. ![]()
And call me new-fangled, but I want 100 remixes of everything by everybody, minimum. It's a happy day for me when I buy a CD-single of remixes that's longer than the full album.

Well put SPOTNICK! I'll suscribe to that opinion...now that I think about it, I did actually kinda like the DK mix of 60MPH...

There was a time...back in the days of yore, when the world was young that I did enjoy the "Stadium Mix" of Spooky. But in these days of electricity and the wheel I am more inclined to dig upon the Minimix of Spooky...maybe because it is so simplistic.
World Perfecto Mix gets me every single time.....and I don't even like the song that much.....its just a great remix
