@Tristan No worries. Your version is more salacious and probably makes for better press. Thanks for the compliment.
@Nathan Those Radiohead remixes were done on a lark as part of a remix “contest” back when “In Rainbows” came out. They were posted to a website that stayed active for close to a year, I think. I put “contest” in quotes because there were no prizes. Still, it was a fun exercise. Usually, my goal with a remix is to keep a prominent aspect unaltered and try to compose something completely new around it. With “Nude,” the vocal track plays from beginning to end as it does in the original song. “Reckoner” uses just a vocal snippet but it stills follows the same philosophy. Speaking of which, here’s a link to a Matthew Dear remix I did for a Vintage King remix contest. I don’t know where you can find the original version of “Can You Rush Them” now. Again, I kept the original arrangement, vocals, drums and some sound effects. Where my version has a sort of jazzy, Bossa nova chord progression, his original version was more of a drone in D…or G, I don’t recall which. https://m.soundcloud.com/harbonder/can-you-rush-them-remix-brian-boyer Anyway, I’m glad to hear you liked the Radiohead stuff, as well as some of our other stuff. - Boyer > On May 21, 2021, at 8:47 PM, Nathan Goode <nathg...@tpg.com.au> wrote: > > Have always dug Strand’s stuff.
