Re: FAO Wolter
I swear to god, 95% of remixes from the last half of the 90s—the ones that showed up on CD2 of a single—contained not a fart of the original. On the one hand, it was like getting a completely new song. On the other, it was inevitably an unlistenable sludge with dance beats.Wolter wrote:At what point does a remix lose every single shred of it's original song?matedog wrote:St. Vincent needs to stop being so obnoxious.Dr. Medulla wrote:

Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead

The one remix from that collection I really love is Go Home Productions messing about with "To Hell With Poverty." Adds extra snarl and funk to an already great song.Flex wrote:Tangentially related to all the discussion, these are two remixes that popped into my head as "superior to the original":

Re: FAO Wolter
My thing about St. Vincent is that since her real name is Annie Clark, I hope that leads people to check out post punk goddess Anne Clark. But I doubt that has happened.Wolter wrote:At what point does a remix lose every single shred of it's original song?matedog wrote:St. Vincent needs to stop being so obnoxious.Dr. Medulla wrote:

Tho I find her albums hit and miss, she is undeniably a shit-hot guitarist.

Re: FAO Wolter
I find I like St Vincent more in theory than practice. But it's not an aesthetic judgment so much as preference.
I feel that there is a fascistic element, for example, in the Rolling Stones . . .

Her name irritates me, but I have no strong opinions otherwise.
