he was giving some input into a couple of old ferry tracks they are reworking. i was gigging with him at the weekend and he was saying he has a writing credit on the forthcoming robbie williams single which is based on eurodans!

what the hell?
i didn't know he had been at the sub club the previous weekend. seems it was great though.

Well... remember that single that Robbie did with Aeroplane?

what
― v for viennetta (c sharp major), Tuesday, 4 September 2012 13:24 (twelve years ago) link
It was called Bodies! It was terrible! Well, the a capella they quietly released later was a bit better, but overall.
Robbie works with some good producers and then does terrible things with them. I don't understand.

i remember him doing stuff with ~dance~ producers for Rudebox (well, mostly i remember one soulwax remix. but that was his dance album, no?) but i thought he got burned by that and went back to the reassuring embrace of Trevor Horn?
― v for viennetta (c sharp major), Tuesday, 4 September 2012 13:35 (twelve years ago) link
Nope, my memory has not failed, this was a thing, and it happened.

That's a remix though, that's different to him actually taking an existing Aeroplane/Terje track and singing over it.
― Matt DC, Tuesday, 4 September 2012 13:44 (twelve years ago) link
yeah they just farm those out at that level, don't they? i wouldn't be surprised if robbie williams had never even heard that.
― jed_, Tuesday, 4 September 2012 13:48 (twelve years ago) link
Having checked I think it was produced by Trevor Horn, so Aeroplane didn't have anything to do with the original.
― Matt DC, Tuesday, 4 September 2012 13:48 (twelve years ago) link
i loved that remix! didnt realize ppl thought it was terrible
― max, Tuesday, 4 September 2012 13:59 (twelve years ago) link
oh wait i never heard the vox. i like the instrumental tho
― max, Tuesday, 4 September 2012 14:00 (twelve years ago) link
looks like it barely got promoed and not released, he v probably hasn't
Horn did the next one but it was their first collab - the one before Rudebox had been completely co-written and produced by Stephen "Tin Tin" Duffy, everything before that was The Guy Chambers Era
(Horn and Robbie SOUNDS like a fantastic idea but I never heard a note until clicking that youtube, presumably it sucked)
Orbit and Ronson and Joey Negro and PSB did various tracks on Rudebox, most of it was by "Soul Mekanik" (it says here)

i wonder if the ferry vid has something to do with the "mixing a (famous) rock band" mentioned in this interview: http://www.factmag.com/2012/08/24/todd-terje-on-primitive-drum-programming-nasal-surgery-and-inspectors-norse-and-morse/

just, like, robbie williams? really? i'd struggle to come up with an artist with less scope for anything interesting. i did like 'bodies' tho, well, the dub anyway.

Inspector Norse gets better every time I listen to it - Saturday had been such a downer due to shitty circumstances involving asshole club managers and early train times, but we got home and cranked this up and when that wonderful proggy arpeggio section came in all my anxieties temporarily vanished

"Inspector Norse" also blends flawlessly into Hot Chip's "Motion Sickness" btw

For some reason I only like "Inspector Norse" when I hear it out.

Terje's remix of Hot Chip's 'How Do You Do' is purrrty great. But so is Joe Goddard's treatment of the same track...

FINALLY heard Inspector Norse in a club with a good soundystem at the end of an incredible night...probably my favourite ever clubbing moment.

nice! played it out a bar recently and it completely killed the mood 'what is this bloopy teenybopper shit' haha, i'd got into some modern krauty low slung bassline kinda vibe. people were dancing, felt like i could get away with it. nope. every bleep in that song became quite embarrassing!
