The Creepers version still knocks it for six imo.

Haha Luke Haines!

Superpitcher to do "Chinese Bakery" with one eyebrow firmly arched!

― firstworldman (firstworldman), Wednesday, 17 November 2004 23:48 (nineteen years ago) link

ah, closed... damn... shoulda read further

― firstworldman (firstworldman), Wednesday, 17 November 2004 23:49 (nineteen years ago) link

I will forward - thanks jed. I wasn't around.

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 18 November 2004 00:20 (nineteen years ago) link

Superpitcher schaffel mix of "The Rubettes" stat.

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Thursday, 18 November 2004 00:23 (nineteen years ago) link

And then Haines and Superpitcher must duet on a cover of Giorgio Moroder's cover of Knights in White Satin.

My favorite thing about this thread is that three or four other Superpitcher threads were started after it.

― jed_ (jed), Thursday, 18 November 2004 00:52 (nineteen years ago) link

I still want to see that Happiness video

http://www.kompakt-net.de/happiness/

― :| (....), Thursday, 18 November 2004 01:40 (nineteen years ago) link

alba - i owe you seven donkeys...

can someone explain to me how they could make happiness so campy? so many cliches thrown at you in such a short amount of time, it boggles my mind.

― youngn, Thursday, 18 November 2004 02:27 (nineteen years ago) link

that's what makes it so great! it's like an early kate bush video!!

― geeta (geeta), Thursday, 18 November 2004 02:29 (nineteen years ago) link

i would love that remix if anyone is feeling generous.

what other videos are available on the kompakt site?

― jonas lefrel (jonas lefrel), Thursday, 18 November 2004 02:31 (nineteen years ago) link

what up andy k!

jonas you should look for two remixes of happiness - the mayer monster of a remix (which KILLS on the dancefloor...esp. that middle part where everything speeds up and down!! the last two times i saw mayer spin he played it, and superpitcher played it too when i saw him last.) then there's the ultra-ultra-moody, sob-in-your-bedroom lawrence remix. i prefer the mayer one, but they're both great.

― geeta (geeta), Thursday, 18 November 2004 02:36 (nineteen years ago) link

geeta - spot on with the happiness - i haven't really see anyone talk about it anywhere, but i don't keep up enough. I like the dialogue between the arpeggios and the playful vamps. I think this track would be funny as hell to put over the music video, knock it up another notch - maybe put some flames in his eyes.

i eye up the andy k. mix at top of this thread and must assemble - like music legos.

― youngn (ndeyoung), Thursday, 18 November 2004 08:05 (nineteen years ago) link

I've still yet to hear the Happiness remixes! They never appear on Limewire (which is a bit odd actually as Kompakt's presence on Limewire has shot up a million per cent these past few months).

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Thursday, 18 November 2004 12:00 (nineteen years ago) link

tim...the mayer happiness remix mp3 is pretty big, can you get 10 meg attachments in emails through your account?

― youngn (ndeyoung), Thursday, 18 November 2004 17:14 (nineteen years ago) link

would alba/youngn/anyone else be willing to forward me that baby's on fire mix? (getmitchquick at gmail dot com)

― m. (mitchlnw), Thursday, 18 November 2004 18:09 (nineteen years ago) link

oh that Lawrence remix of Happiness is so wonderful.

― adam... (nordicskilla), Thursday, 18 November 2004 18:21 (nineteen years ago) link

i can send out both happiness mixes and now the 'baby's on fire mix' if anyone still needs them

― firstworldman (firstworldman), Thursday, 18 November 2004 18:32 (nineteen years ago) link

New idea: The thread for gmail offers and requests

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 18 November 2004 18:41 (nineteen years ago) link

I listened to the Lawrence mix under the covers last night and went somewhere else entirely. One of the most beautiful musical experiences I've had in ages. I'd like to hear it without vocals, I think.

― Alba (Alba), Friday, 19 November 2004 14:31 (nineteen years ago) link

That watery keyboard line is just so just.

― Alba (Alba), Friday, 19 November 2004 14:42 (nineteen years ago) link

Our club was really busy last night and the dancefloor was full for so long that I decided I could risk emptying it and played "Heroin". It was amazing. The part where the bass comes back in is possibly the "coolest" moment in a dance record ever.

― Ronan (Ronan), Friday, 19 November 2004 18:06 (nineteen years ago) link

if anyone still needs "baby's on fire," i have four versions of the track -- including the wb's one -- posted on my site.

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Friday, 19 November 2004 18:15 (nineteen years ago) link

you didn't include the creepers version? i like that one most.

― jed_ (jed), Friday, 19 November 2004 18:27 (nineteen years ago) link

i haven't heard it!

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Friday, 19 November 2004 18:28 (nineteen years ago) link

ill send it you you now - it's only 2.5 meg so yahoo should be ok, right?

― jed_ (jed), Friday, 19 November 2004 18:34 (nineteen years ago) link

yep. thanks jed!

Yanc3y - nice :)

I heard this (for probably the first time) at WMF in Berlin and have since been wondering exactly which version it was!

it was being played by WestBam, not sure if that helps answer the WB question or not... He also played 'Marooned' by Wire :O

― latetotheparty (latetotheparty), Friday, 19 November 2004 20:01 (nineteen years ago) link

Anyone else heard this woman Frédérique Franke sing over 'Mushroom' or know anything about her?

― Alba (Alba), Sunday, 21 November 2004 21:38 (nineteen years ago) link

That's not that bad of a mashup actually. The website says it is from her DJ set...

This must be the prototype for the speicher eagle, by the way

― Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Monday, 22 November 2004 00:55 (nineteen years ago) link

i think that's the german national emblem or something.

― jed_ (jed), Monday, 22 November 2004 01:00 (nineteen years ago) link

austria-hungary.

― :| (....), Monday, 22 November 2004 01:34 (nineteen years ago) link

nonsense. its the cologne coat of arms.

― :| (....), Monday, 22 November 2004 01:54 (nineteen years ago) link

the "baby's on fire" remix of superpitcher's cover is indeed westbam. it came out on a white-label 12", and then recently westbam put out a legit copy (which i picked up in berlin a month or two ago) w/ the original (superpitcher) version, the westbam remix w/ the VU chords, and then a westbam "club mix" which is, um, clubbier. that's what i was playing last night at Rx when ellen allien walked in, and frankly i was a little embarassed at the obviousness of the track, even though she did say, "ooh! baby's on fire!"

― philip sherburne (philip sherburne), Monday, 22 November 2004 02:07 (nineteen years ago) link

Wait, didn't this come out at the end of last year? I got this on a 12" that says "super dope underground mixes" on the label...

― Jacob (Jacob), Monday, 22 November 2004 05:54 (nineteen years ago) link

I think it was an official re-release Jacob.

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Monday, 22 November 2004 06:12 (nineteen years ago) link

I love that: "ooh! baby's on fire!"

― Alba (Alba), Monday, 22 November 2004 07:26 (nineteen years ago) link

who has heard the superpitcher rmx. of the mfa's "the difference it makes"?

― cºzen (Cozen), Monday, 22 November 2004 13:15 (nineteen years ago) link

I have.

― Alba (Alba), Monday, 22 November 2004 13:15 (nineteen years ago) link

I was looking for maybe a bit more... is it really, really good?

― cºzen (Cozen), Monday, 22 November 2004 13:20 (nineteen years ago) link

I thought I gave it to you on that CDR? Maybe not. I'm not that mad about it, but then I'm not that mad on the original, either. I probably need to listen to it more.

― Alba (Alba), Monday, 22 November 2004 13:24 (nineteen years ago) link

The Superpitcher MFA mix is on Gabba Amp right now. It is very good, yes.

― Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Monday, 22 November 2004 15:26 (nineteen years ago) link

It's one of the remixes of the year!
