Re: [313] re- gary numan
I have a red vinyl EP with the Robert Armani and DJ Hell mixes on it... I think they are both fairly good as far as Numan remixes go. It's called Random Remixes and as far as I can tell I thought it was on Random Records but I could be mistaken about the label. Like to get some of the other mixes on this CD on vinyl, though. There's a cd called 'Random (02)- mixes of Gary Numan' (1998, Beggars Banquet Records). I don't usually buy mixes of old songs I loved in my youth. They usually dissapoint. But I saw this for cheap at Kims in NYC a couple years ago and picked it up. This is a collection of previously released 12. There's a few reviews I found on the web. Here's one: http://www.napadogan.com/pr_beggars%20banquet_gary%20numan_random(02)_022698.htm Alot of the mixes on here do no justice to the originals but I like a fewof these. Here's some thoughts: Robert Armani - Metal : Reminds me of The Knacks's 'My Sharona' ?! DJ Hell - Dans Le Parc : Nice low bass..dig it. Greenhaus - I Die, You Die : Zzz Mike Dearborn - Cars : Nothing like the original track. Dig it. Dave Clarke - Cars : I would honestly rather listen to the original song. He stays pretty close to it anyway. I'm guessing that's Dave's point and that he a big fan of Gary's music also. Dave Angel - Warriors : I could do without this track on the cd. Not my cup of (green) tea I guess. I'm also not that familar with the original. I know his first 3-4 solo and Tubeway Army albums better. Liberator D.J.s - Are Friend's Electric : It would take alot for me to like a remake of one my fave early synth-pop songs. This mix certainly didn't do it. Steve Stoll - Remember I was Vapours : This would be nice thrown into a set me thinks? Claude Young - We Are Glass : Not bad but I'm starting to fast forward these tracks so I can throw on some of my some of my Tubeway Army LPs and GN cds.. Alex Hazzard - Films : I have to turn this off after 50 secs. Peter lazanby - The Iceman Comes : A pretty Idmish mix of this track. A nice listen. I don't think I've heard the original? side note: When I talked to Gary a few years ago in London I got the impression that he's pretty protective of his material. It may be hard to get samples cleared by him but if there's money involved... ,Dave __ Do You Yahoo!? Send FREE Valentine eCards with Yahoo!

F*cking 'avin' it was actually the last part of the title.

RE: [313] re- gary numan
The album was released in a time when this so-called intelligent techno thing (Warp, black dog stuff etc) was quite popular. It was statement saying that this music was for partying (hard) and not about locking yourselfs in your bedroom, no daylight and try and think /make the most weird sounds/noises etc.. yes, it was honest (i have the album:), you knew what you where buying! I liked it a lot, still do by the way.. Now back to the intelligent stuff...

RE: [313] re- gary numan
i might be wrong, but i remember it coming out in the days when jeff mills, laurent garnier and dave clarke were still selling out friday nights at Club UK. Looks like early '97... http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amgsql=A331150 - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
