Not really feeling it, like some sick little edits on the drums, a shuffle here or there might have been a big move. Though the bassline is pretty bubbly.

I listened to it expecting to hate it and actually thought it was pretty cool. To be honest I hear loads of little ghosts of old rave in Burial's music, so in a way it's quite good to hear those bits amplified. If anything it shows Burials way with a good tune that it can be done as an after hours chill, meditative stepper or as a dancefloor stomper, he's like the new Beatles or something :wink:
Hmm....

Although it seems quite contrary to the original's concept.

Struggling to see what he has actually done here other than putting a monotoneus looping 4x4 house beat and slightley distorted bassline underneath what was a very deep and emotive piece of music.

is this a remix? lack of originality cannot be considered a remix tbh, this is the original with some beats and snares playing alongside the tune.
:roll:
Suddenly, there was a terrible roar all around us, and the sky was full with what looked like huge bats, all swooping and screeching and diving around the car, and a voice was screaming:
Holy Jesus. What are these goddamn animals?

not too much of a remix. a tool rather, would probably be fun to play in a techno or house set.

Just found another remix:

Better than 8 Bit Boy because it sound like some effort went into it. But still not caught the vibe that made the original the timeless classic it will prove to be.
