Depeche Mode - A Pain That I'm Used To (Goldfrapp Remix)
Depeche Mode - A Pain That I'm Used To (Thin White Duke Remix)
Depeche Mode - Better Days (Basteroid Dance Is Gone Remix)
Depeche Mode - Shake The Disease (Tiga Remix Promo Edit)
Depeche Mode - Suffer Well (M83 Instrumental)
Depeche Mode - Suffer Well (Metope Remix)
Depeche Mode - The Darkest Star (James Holden Remix)
Depeche Mode - The Darkest Star (James Holden Dub)
There are many more than this, even. Depeche has been v. v. good to me these six months past. I am so glad Martin Gore likes the same music I do. XD XD XD The odd thing is that in most cases I prefer the original programming after all - I get the impression that any number of the remixers were DM fans to begin with and were halfhearted about fucking around with those analog synths. But at the same time they didn't just retrace around the original and make it bigger and shinier and stompier like Richard X and Rex the Dog did. I like the Goldfrapp mix but she already blew my mind once with "Halo", there's no surprise factor this time around. XD The Metope mix is great stompy cut-up electro but the basic track is unrecognizable therein (as with the Holden dub, regarding which I advise you to resist the temptation to turn it up loud - your ears will thank me a minute in XD). M83 sort of took the half of the instrumental Metope didn't (guitars etc.) and ran away with it.
What I do wholeheartedly ♥ is the vocal Holden remix of "The Darkest Star". If I were to make an Angel Sanctuary FST today this would be on it, representing Lucifer - sonically and all. The buzzing and clanking echo and intensify until it becomes SCARY INDUSTRO-GOTH WHITE NOISE TOTAL WIPEOUT and then BOOM back to the bass. I reckon if I heard it in a club I'd go nuts. XD
Ironically what I like best out of the latest crop are Villalobos putting "Sinner In Me" through its paces in one of his live sets as if Dave Gahan were one of his ethnographic vocals in Provençal or Creole, and that non-existent Wighnomy Bros. remix of "Lillian"! Dear Martin Gore this will be released eventually rightright?
