todd terje remixes poll

he has a knack for a great bassline - the 'another station' remix is probably the best example, it really rampages along. reverso 68 remix also a good example of this.

cons: i can't really stomach the fox'n'wolf one due to the risible vocal. the antena remix wasn't as good as the joakim one, but not much was that year.

either simon baker or rogue audio. or maybe lindstrom. tough!

I looooove the reverso 68 so have to plump for that one. The bassline just bounces it along and the chopped up vocal bit is quite overwhelming at the right moment so it's got this great combination of energy and psychedelia.

Simon Baker remix is AMAZING. I also love the Lindstrom, the Studio, the Karou Inoue, the Reverso 68 and the Jose Gonzales. But if Paul SImon had been included here I would hate voted for that.

Balearic Incantation - Like a balearic version of Hardfloor's Acperience. Just when you think it can't go any higher it raises its game... and again. A monster.

killing for love no argument it is soooo good thats my argument

Tim, you took my answers!

The Paul Simon remix would trump everything listed here, and all of them are quite good.

which one is on the flip of the chic 12" he did??

i'm odd man out i guess, i went for the Chaz Jankel, that's probably in my top 5 tracks of 2008.

Another Station~!

sweet dynamite is what i was thinking of
http://www.piccadillyrecords.com/mp3/Tangoterje%20-%20Sweet%20Dynamite.mp3

that is a good one. i kinda felt like the edits are their own thing, though? we'll poll them separately when this one is done.

'balearic incarnation' was one of those ones i didn't get until i heard it out. "balearic version of Hardfloor's Acperience" indeed!

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Camino in a walk and if it loses that's some ILM revisionist history bullshit!!

omg i cannot decide, Jose Gonzalez, Simon Baker, Reverso 68, Karou Inoue, and Lindstrom are my faves... based on its ability to turn the dancefloor from a mellow mood to a massacre, i would say Jose Gonzalez. but the reverso 68 is soooo good too ahhhhh!!!!!!!

is it fair to put the new magic journey on there though? i just bought it and it's in the mail, has anyone heard a full length version?

i went for the reverso 68 myself, but i do enjoy the jose gonzales and kaoru inoue remixes also

and i agree that the edits deserve their own poll, i enjoy them far more than the remixes

lindstrom, after much deliberation. close-run thing, though!

played the Studio remix slooowed to 33 the other night and it was devastatingly trippy. love the Simon Baker too but maybe i'll go with the Jose Gonzalez, as i cannnot take his music on its own.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

Karou Inoue - The Secret Field ('07) 0

ouch

the latest on Tiny Sticks is ace.

I really don't get what's so good about that Plastik remix. Can someone explain? Every time I hear it I wish it was the original instead...

its that ridiculously epic breakdown in the middle, makes me feel like im dancing in a smokey Turkish tavern

but i havent heard original, ha

also- zero votes for "death disco"? i put this on the other day and was surprised at how well terje pulls off the whole darkwave-house thing

I just used that track on a mix

really wanted to hear that one. it sold out pretty quickly though, if memory serves.

moreover sad there were only 20 votes... terje is the man

peeps are missin out

Wally Warning - Land Of Hunger (edit)

^ is that the earons?

yeah with different vocals maybe???

sorry, yes it is, i get all my music off blogs and that is how it was labelled

his edit of "i want your love" is awesome.

^yeah, it's awesome if heard as a standalone track, but IMO compared to the original it's not that spectacular.

I would've voted for balearic incarnation..

listening to this. pretty pointless. he just sped up the dub and extended one part. for as many great things he does, how the hell does he get away w/changing the name of the artist and putting his name on it?

a horse with no shame

lol nice

i just listened to the original mix chaz jankel's "glad to know you" and it's really inferior to the edit.

this one of Love the One You're with by the Supremes just loosens the whole thing up and puts this bongo in, it's great!

ha!

I love the America edit, though he doesn't do too much aside from beefing up the kick drum, so perhaps its more to the credit of the song?

I forgot. It's not memorable enough.

Alicia Keys - You Don't Know My Moonflowers (Todd Terje Edit)

^SEARCH (haven't heard the original; don't know how much he changes things up)

is it just me or terje's edit of "like an eagle" sounds just like the original? or did i download the same song with the one wrongly tagged as the original?

"67. Moodymann - Lake Shore Drive (Todd Terje Rekutt)

the really interesting question is how he did an edit of a Moodymann track that isn't by Moodymann!?!?!

http://www.discogs.com/Moodymann-Theo-Parrish-Small-Black-Church/release/6852

probably just a mistagged track.

18. Canned Heat - Wanda Rode Again (Todd Terje aka Wade Nichols Edit)

this one's pretty rad, it's the A-side of Horse With no Name 12"

haha whoa duh -- thats pretty funny anyway

has anyone seen him dj ? been listening to his mixes and it sounds like he would be ace

dolle jolle remix deserved way more votes

it wasn't well-known when the poll started.

apparently the permanent vacation folx are putting out a comp of some of this stuff, including edits!

Anyone heard his Remasters of the Universe mix yet? It appears to be a mixed compilation of (mainly) his remixes...

Did you ever find out the answer to that?

I've only ever been able to find the 9 minute version that is tagged both as the original and as the Terje remix. (ie I mean I've d/l several files tagged either as the original or the remix but they always seem to be the same track)

I think Terje is the 10 minute and indeed similar, version - as corroborated by samples on music vending websites.

Proper actual decent-sounding compilation due
http://www.residentadvisor.net/news.aspx?id=11966

Permanent Vacation is set to release a new mix compilation by Todd Terje, entitled Remaster of the Universe.

The two-disc package collects more than 20 edits and remixes by the Norwegian disco specialist, most of which have seen release on labels like DFA, Playhouse and Mule. There are also two unreleased originals: Duliatten Disco Dandia's "Surat Surfin" and a cover of Ace of Base's "All That She Wants," performed, curiously, by an artist named Chuck Norris. (Which we wouldn't be surprised is yet another pseudonym for Terje himself.)

12" sampler for this has a polka cover of 'percolator'

on the like an eagle talk: the version on the album of the same name is 6.22.

Permanent Vacation >>>>>> all other record labels in the world, right now.

Okay the compilation is awesome. Such perfect music for this weather.

i suppose the terje edit is indeed similar to the original one. he only extended it and maybe some minor tweaking.

ok so this remaster of the universe thing is amazing. i had a similar reaction to the mungolian jetset discs, where i thought i knew it all and wasn't too incredibly stoked at first, but hearing things mixed together well and having everything bundled up together in one package is so obviously a great thing. sorta bummed that he isn't doing anymore remixes, but the band/original tracks included on the disc are actually pretty promising too

Listening to Remaster of the Universe now, it's making work very tolerable.

i've been playing it to death for the last month or two, might be one of the best things i've heard all year. his remixes lend themselves to working incredibly well within a mix anyway, but on this he tweaks things a lottt more and layers on the effects and it all works so well. also that chuck norris/ace of base thing is great (i even used it in a recent mix), and i like the polka number as well actually.

todd terje last night was one of the most fun sets i've ever heard live. highlights include "close to you":

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ektAG9vK2Js

yeah dude is a great live dj

the crowd even chanted "we want more!" twice until he eventually came back and plays toto - georgy porgy. spectacular.

i mean, not that twice of that sentence. but two series of chants.

http://www.discogs.com/Todd-Terje-The-Red-Album/release/2480474

Why did nobody tell me this existed? I would like this very much.

"tangoterje Nov 01, 2010:

This is a bootleg release, please don´t buy."

Oh, I didn't notice that. My mind was boggling at the clearance issues on such a release too...

ha good comparison!

this is w/o a doubt the new champ itt:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=24wP3p1SINc

forgivable over-enthusiasm

Good, but no way new champ (neither new nor better than Balearic Incarnation, Antena del Sol, Another Station, etc.)

"new" as in it wasn't around when this poll was made 2 years ago

I see.

Anyways, that Azoto mix/edit/whatever is amazing! Thanks!

I eagerly anticipate seeing Mr. Terje himself play here in 8 days!

Damn, Terje's remix of Ferry's Alphaville just glows. So lush, lush.

^have been loving this recently too. builds on his piano infatuation in epic ways, would fit perfectly on that remaster of the world mix

Hot Chip's "How Do You Do"

http://soundcloud.com/toddterje/hot-chip-how-do-you-do-todd

^^^is predictably incredible. everything he touches turns to gold right now.

ya, kinda crazy how many great things there have been since this poll

^^^is predictably incredible

I find the Hot Chip one a little predictably predictable. Joakim "Nothing Gold" RMX was great though.

this may be old hat for some of you, but i hadn't heard until a mate played it recently at a thing i was djing at.

amazing:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dum13nkaN6E

really enjoyed mixing the chaz jankel remix with blaze's "lovelee dae" today :)

that diamonds mix is awesome. total rogue dj drop. so much warmth in the track and in the room it gets played in!

have not actually heard it out but i can imagine.

Well this is delightful
