Tortoise - Galapagos

[Weirdalexo]

That guitar just fucking kills me...

[silvias]

this song is just awesome....I can't stop listening to it....the original version (Along the Banks of Rivers) is great too..but this remix has an extra irrational deep thing which I can't describe...it touches my soul

[ewenson111]

what album is this on?

[zavas69]

@ewenson111 Remixed (1996)

[flyingbluecows]

Trippy video, awesome bassline.

[robertomifano]

[jahahese]

Yes it's good, but where the hell can I buy it???!!

[Toxeensynth]

[Regentzable]

[Davidsbeenhere]

I am a world traveler I love to travel around the world.

Check out my wonderful traveling videos

Thank you guys :-)

[taskzulu]

[reqqwrq24]

awesome track simply put.....some of the best I've heard

[ALLiLaTioN]

Aυτοι τζαμανε κανονικα και το ρεμιξ ειναι πολυ πετυχημενο ;-DD

[outer432]

FINALLY after months of searching for another band that really blows my mind, i finally find these guys. THANK YOU CREATOR, AND THANK YOU YOUTUBE. This is definetely where i parked my car!! One love everybody who also listens to Tortoise!!

[claytonthedavis]

I love "Millions Now Living..." and all, but I always felt "Along the Banks of The Rivers" was a little weak. This remix, re-contextualization totally replaces the original as far as I'm concerned.

[Egondv]

Prog Rock Jungle? :D Its Fucking Awesome!!!

[stitzrichter]

this is the Spring Heel Jack remix from the 12" series

[tweezerfetish]

@stitzrichter an awesome set of remixes btw. Tortoise are the point where rock meets electronic music, esp the first album, Tortoise.

I miss the 90s

[stitzrichter]

@tweezerfetish from your name I'm guessing Slint is on that list? : ) yeah, me too.

[Shamanmagic95]

very creative!

[soakrenol]

nice track

[AirPickles]

You can hear samples of 'Along the Banks of Rivers' but did Tortoise really put together this remix?

[ANGELSIX]

yes this is a remix of the song along bank rivers from the album Millions Now Living Will Never Die,,,,really great album very experimental

[potentialrandom]

Man, this is really good. I haven't even watched the video yet, but this is perfect background music for thinking, reading, etc. (I keep hitting the replay button.)

Back to what I was doing.

[economuzak]

Totally. I am writing a thesis this year, and have discovered so much great music trying to drown out the humdrum sounds of the office.

[frog606]

Is this the Spring Heel Jack remix?

[rwastk]

i love that it it not like anything else out there.... just so sick of the same old shit

[aleadley7]

this is ridiculous.  i need to keep watching it over

[lotzi20062006lotzi]

nice groove!!

[bebosnroses]

con o sin mota te das un viaje bien cabron con ese video y rola XD

[ChimichangaCongo]

They use the amen huh.

[guja101010]

Most people wouldn't understand Tortoise' music. It makes 'perfect' sense to me...

[auzzi04]

how could someone not understand this?

it describes so much without having to say anything...

[MindControll]

you are so pretentious

[ledzeppelith2]

i second that

a little pretension is okay

that is wayyy over the limit

if the limit of pretension is 10

that was like at least 39.43

i think you get the picture

good stuff

[jestempies]

Or, like yourself, it describes so much without having anything to say.

[negative1985]

muuuy bueno alucinogeo

[pozzi0]

pure music

[TerentiaWillsomethin]

ooh dang this is rad

[KillerNeotony]

im seriously addicted to this fkn song

[jberry106]

spring heel jacks album 68 million shades is very good

[greatdanish82]

[squidbeak1]

1 of 3 remix 12" from millions now living

[bwatts672]

Time of my interest in this song's death - 3:34 into the song.

[mindexploration]

[halfwitedboy]

[Gretsche87]
