i had forgotten they remixed bassomatics classic 'fascinating rhythm'.
wasn't until i dug the 'ease on by' ep out of the archive i realised.
so for the sake of this thread i have added it to the internet archive.

re: Bassomatic, a reminder that William Orbit's friend and often collaborator Rico Conning worked with Renegade Soundwave and other likeminded bands at the time. Prior to that he was in the post-punk band the Lines, who I hope to soon be reissuing.

Danny -- feel free to send me the Cicciolina remix! I am dying to hear it now!

the RSW mix is indeed on the 'ease on by' cd ep .. not sure if its on the vinyl versions ..

so I had a moment at work and was researching Wide Boy Awake, Kevin Mooney from Adam and the Ant's eclectic 3 or so ep's and that was it early/mid 80s act who gave us the suprise new wave dance classic Slang Teacher. While talking about the old punk days connections were made to fellow Ant Marco Pirronni and his prior band Rema Rema, which of course featured Gary from Renegade Soundwave(as well as 2 later Wolfgang Press).
I then see on the 4ad page that they put out a limited edition CD of the awesome Rema Rema 12" with notes by Kevin Mooney.
Then catching up with everyone, Mooney is working with Gary Ainsworth in a band called Lavender Pill Mob, which brought me to these links:
http://www.lecoqmusique.co.uk/
as well as a band called Mike's Bikes featuring Adam Ant. I suppose this query could be posted on an Adam Ant thread as well, but I'll take any chance to revive a Renegade Soundwave thread.
So what's this all about? This stuff any good? They also refer to him as Gary Ainsworth, so I'm confused.

His shitty rapping actually helps this line, makes it more unexpected. "Soundclash" is indeed v good.

Soundclash still the best record ever.

I wish I still had my copy of "Thunder II". I can't remember which b-side it was, but one of them was extreme dubby fantasticness.
FYI: I was thinking of "Manphibian" here

Manphibian and Mash-Up are both awesome. A great ep.

recently read the Murder Music was originally a Rema Rema song. (Or Mass?) Makes sense. I would kill to hear an original recording of it if there ever was one.

I purchased an album of theirs because Pop Will Eat Itself listed them as something they dug on "Can You Dig It."
I didn't.

RSW >>> PWEI
― dan selzer, Tuesday, 5 April 2011 20:08 (thirteen years ago) link
especially as PWEI went on; the Poppies had 2 albums that were as consistently good as the RSW material but they had to ramp up to it and they fell off relatively quickly after they hit their stride
This is the Day... and Cure For Sanity are amazing tho
― fat fat fat fat Usher (DJP), Tuesday, 5 April 2011 20:11 (thirteen years ago) link
I remember jjj picked up the "Biting My Nails" single as a result of "Can U Dig It?" and by the time we got to "Kray Twins" we both knew RSW fucking owned

i mean, it's kind of blowing my mind that other went through exactly the same folly of youth shit. and it wasn't an "album" i bought, it was exactly that thin-case maxi single. eventually came to like one of the songs, think it was the "biting nails" club dub.

The 12 with biting backed by kray twins and cocaine sex was my first purchase after soundclash I think. Bought it at sam goody in a nj mall.

I was about to post the playlist of my 2 CD set of RSW favorites with a "pop" cd and a "dance" cd but then I realized I did it already 6 years ago.

man listening through all of this and cocaine sex is just so much better than the title would lead you to think - i think this might be my favorite so far

whoa this biting my nails (sound system plays a renegade tune) remix on thunder II is kind of awesome
