This is what the original track elicits in me and in my view there is no point in doing a remix that is very similar to the original. I personally enjoy the process of "making it" and coming up with solutions, so the more distant from the original, the better; it becomes a bigger challenge. I have no intention to improve DS's work (I couldn't anyway) it is just my expression and what the track says to me, I suppose it is an act of love towards his music and respect for his unshakable integrity. Apologies to the ones that feel I disrespected the original.

Doc- you take DS's work and turn it into a whole greater than the sum of it's parts, truly stunning. I hope that he's had the chance to listen to your interpretations.A request: "Heartbeat" by Sakamoto with DS and IC? I think that you could blow it open into something alchemical,...9 years ago

A friend of mine just posted this on Facebook, and I am utterly astounded...it appears you do several remixes of his songs. Being a newcomer, I look forward to checking them all out. I hope there is a remix (if such were even possible) of my all-time favorite Sylvian track, Before the Bullfight...and if not, maybe you will be inspired to create one. Either way, great work--very inventive, alluring & hypnotic.14 years ago

This is exquisite and magical. If I have experienced it once then I have experienced it a thousand times. I am an ardent admirer of evrything you have dne. And yes, Mock The Week is hilarious. Have you ever listened to the Irish comedian Dylan Moran? Or the Welshman Rhod Gilbert? Both equally as amusing. Keep up wit the music and the imagery and thank you for introducing your woek to me.

Grande Doc, veramente una crema questo remix! Per il mio gusto personale è uno dei migliori che tu abbia mai fatto, da pubblicare in 12" come singolo.Related Videos
