I thought of making the tracks poll but I didn't know which ones should be nominated so I created this instead.

anyone care to explain the draw with R.V.? is it something you either get or don't?

thanks for reminding me of the Tomorrow Goodbye remix

hot slag (lukas), Friday, 24 August 2012 19:18 (twelve years ago)

'cell phone's dead' is my favourite. 'blood...' feels, almost objectively, like the best tho.

second only to popcorn (or something), Friday, 24 August 2012 19:24 (twelve years ago)

one by one i'll knock ya out.

one for cellphone

cestu, Friday, 24 August 2012 19:31 (twelve years ago)

This list seems not to have his remix of isolee - I owe you, which is definitely among his better works.

i realized recently that ricardo villalobos' face is a remix of mick fleetwood's

maybe? maybe not? i dunno.

emo mcgee vs ricky hitler (Merdeyeux), Friday, 24 August 2012 20:09 (twelve years ago)

Beck or Rhythm & Sound.

Tim F, Friday, 24 August 2012 21:28 (twelve years ago)

yeah "Let We Go" is great, I like the DJ Minx one too

never understood why everyone loves "Blood on My Hands" so much

dmr, Friday, 24 August 2012 21:38 (twelve years ago)

2nd yr opinion of "blood on my hands." boring boring boring.

i say 'cellphone's dead' or the dj minx one, too.

for reasons of sass (the table is the table), Friday, 24 August 2012 21:47 (twelve years ago)

Y'know, looking at this list I feel surprisingly... indifferent, uninterested, even - especially given that I think his beck and depeche mode remixes are super boring, and that not much else I've heard from this list is that much better. Anyways, I voted for blood on my hands, but even that's not incredibly exciting. Maybe I'm just cranky but this poll is proving kind of underwhelming for me, perhaps strangely, perhause 'cause he's just a better original producer.

Anyways, where's the superpitcher remix poll amirite?

formerly EDB (ed.b), Friday, 24 August 2012 21:54 (twelve years ago)

i think his originals are mostly better, too, but i feel obligated to say that 'blood on my hands' is totally classic, even if its the boring non-contrarian opinion.

karl...arlk...rlka...lkar..., Friday, 24 August 2012 22:11 (twelve years ago)

xpost: haha at "perhause" at last perhaps and because have been synthesized. Anyways, I am kind of cranky (though I was already not getting any hopes up about the new RV album), but I think I'll make that Superpitcher poll if I remember too.

formerly EDB (ed.b), Friday, 24 August 2012 22:17 (twelve years ago)

For the most part Villalobos' strategy with remixes was basically to strip out the melody and run the tune through a wormhole, I think for anyone other than absoute V stans that trick really is only effective a handful of times and seeing all these remixes listed just underscores that.

It's a good remix but I have always had issues with the Sinner In Me remix, as I used to listen to Sebo K's RA mix as a soundtrack for running, and the arrival of the interminable bongo loops signaled a ten minute stretch that felt like running up a really steep hill.

Tim F, Friday, 24 August 2012 22:24 (twelve years ago)

'sinner in me' remix always bored the shit out of me. really dislike the way dave gahan's voice works on it.

second only to popcorn (or something), Friday, 24 August 2012 22:30 (twelve years ago)

yeah, that's pretty otm, and villalobofication works better on some songs than others.

sinner in me remix works so well in a so-awkward-it's-awesome kinda way and I love how it screams drug music. I voted for that btw.
