That said, I'm not sure how much I like some of the older LRD stuff. I'll have to go listen to it again.

I think you begin to understand Ronan´s point about the importance of remixes lately when you contemplate all these remix collections and the breathless excitement they generate - remixes have always been the bread and butter of dance music but it seems like now more than ever the key players´ reputations are being forged through their remixes.

There's something about it that suggests a healthiness and frenetic side to the scene at the moment, like could artists really be prolific enough if they were releasing all individual singles and not popping up as remixers everywhere? It really allows for an individual sound to emerge, it's a weird phenomenon of the electro-house explosion, though perhaps there are parallels with other points in history or genres, dancehall even?

it's strange to think that darkdancer still fits in with the sort of music around now, even though it was released around 10 years ago. I'd never thought that it would be a CD that still gets really great reaction when I dj.
It wasn't that much of a success around the time of the release was it?

Mixes for Placebo and Mekon a bit phoned in, but that's all I got so far.
Paper Faces is collaborative, at least according to an mp3 I got - Stuart + 1 Zoot Woman.

friendly fires seems to inspire really great remixes.
my favourite jlc remix is of britney's "breathe on me"! so good. (was also gonna rep for his mix of new order's jetstream but then realized the one i was thinking of was by richard x. whoops.)
― Roz, Monday, 4 May 2009 16:53 (fourteen years ago) link
I think he produced Frankmusik's entire last EP, but I'm certain he at least produced "3 Little Words".
― jamescobo, Monday, 4 May 2009 16:59 (fourteen years ago) link
yes, "breathe on me" is awesome
― we know gay coop (roxymuzak), Friday, 8 May 2009 20:16 (fourteen years ago) link
bit disappointed with the FF remix in the end but maybe just because i really do like the original
― Hard House SugBanton (blueski), Friday, 8 May 2009 20:29 (fourteen years ago) link
Have to say that the Frankmusik album is just glorious (a couple of duds) and sounds almost entirely like a new LRD album.
― emsef, Friday, 14 August 2009 10:47 (fourteen years ago) link
His Sneaky Sound System remix is glorious.

paper faces remix of fdh isn't up to much
― NI, Friday, 14 August 2009 11:09 (fourteen years ago) link
the first two tracks off the FM album sound like LRD, the rest gets weaker as it goes on which is a shame. I wonder what happened between the EPs and the album?

They secretly wrote and recorded six songs that became the foundation for the forthcoming album, produced by Stuart Price.

I'm sure this will be up to the consistently high standard we've all come to expect from Stuart Price since Confessions on a Dancefloor.
― Matt DC, Thursday, 15 July 2010 16:28 (thirteen years ago) link
For many, Take That were the original template for boyband success.
This isn't the first place I've seen that claim, and maybe it's just a Britisher-centric observation, but New Edition and New Kids on the Block both came before them and were pretty successful the world over iirc.
― Johnny Fever, Thursday, 15 July 2010 16:34 (thirteen years ago) link
mm. well in fact original manager NM Smith based TT on NKOTB in the first place. the original advert for band members actually said 'dancers wanted for Britain's answer to New Kids..' or words to that effect.
― piscesx, Thursday, 15 July 2010 17:59 (thirteen years ago) link
op herestill love this tonight... only 4 bars of every song = perfection.and no one does the start-to-finish strings remixes (felix, even starsailor)
give me new jlc!or alternatively, what went wrong? besides becoming a proper producer
