Spotted these on 'The Hype Machine' website. Have downloaded them but not had chance to listen yet. I assume they are official. Has anyone heard them? Will post review later.

They do the job I suppose and "dancify" a relatively straight ahead guitar track. If this were 10 years ago these probably would've been put out on "CD 2" in the shops or at the very least on 12".
Mark Reeder's contributions are relatively sparse (drum machine, synthetic bassline, odd synth) with most of the vocals and guitar from the original surviving intact. We're not looking at a drastic Confusion Pump Panel reworking or anything but these certainly aren't bad though probably not that memorable. The Waterwing Remix gets my vote as the best.
Both full length mixes could easily have padded out the SoS "single" on iTunes/Amazon etc. so bit of a surprise they've seemingly been released for free.
Here's the link again for those who haven't listened yet...
Would anyone be really nice to me and send me the files via email? I cannot download the link.
Thank you.

Thank you.
I'll send you them, no problem, but I can't see your e-mail address. If you send it to gkyle25@gmail.com then that'll be my birthday present to you :) :baloon:
The links at sheenabeaston.com have been removed 'at the label's request'.
So where do you buy these remixes then?
