Fools Gold Remixes

Fools Gold by The Stone Roses from 1989 is an absolute indie dance classic by al rights, but for me there are two remixes that are even better.

The one by Tall Paul I got to know because dj St-Dic (RIP) used to play it in his deep house sets at the upstairs room at Fuse. It's a remix from 1995 and has a bit more of a beat, a house remix basicly.

There is also a remix from Rabbit In The Moon that is mindblowing. Apperently it's only on the 1999 re-release of Fools Gold, but it sounds like 1989 to me, Acid House all the way*.

* Acid House here refers to the British party scene of the late 1980's that later became known as Rave. The music wasn't stricktly US Acid House, but all kinds of music also from Europe, that didn't have the typical TB-303 acid sound.

Eighties remixes

Hot for the moment is the new version of Luc Van Acker and Anna Domino's belpop/cult hit Zanna by Selah Sue, Tom Barman & The Subs for Studio Brussels' Music For Life 2011.
The original:

The new version: 

The new version isn't bad ifn't you aren't already tired of Selah Sue's voice. ;) I'm just glad the didn't ask Milow as an artist from Leuven, one of the three places the Music For Life glass house will be in, Barman is for Antwerp and the Subs for Ghent, the other two places it will be.

Another great example of a modern take on an eighties song is Drop The Lime's remix of (I Just) Died in Your Arms by eighties one hist wonder Cutting Crew.
The remix:
The original was already in my first eighties post:
I still love the original, maybe more of a guilty pleasure. The glitch remix by Drop The Lime is a good track to mix, not that good to just listen to at home IMO.  

That's all I can tihnk of right now. More eighties remixes later! Promised! ;)

James Blake - Limit To Your Love (System-D D&B remix)

Legendary Belgian drum & bass DJ System-D made a lovely remix on James Blake's Limit To Your Love. It's a bootleg thing, so for now only on Soundcloud:
