I went to see Leftfield live and they play an extended/updated version with a good few minutes of that driving phaser sound you've extended. It sounds awesome and like you my only gripe is the real driving part of the original track isn't long enough so good skills mate
Does anyone have the version with the piano toward end, the best version! I know it as clubbed for life (mix or whatever). It was out before the "original", back in '92 If I remember rightly.
@AQUAVIVARIA Play this version and the original back to back and tell me which you prefer. If you haven't been able to tell the difference so far it's because the only changes I've made are those needed to make it into what's needed for a dance record. The original was fine in the context of the album but for other uses it needed sorting, unlike "Space Shanty" which was perfect from the start.
@AQUAVIVARIA This is one of my favourite albums. (tracks) When i saw you had messed with it i thought 'OMG' why??
But in all fairness you have done a good job mate. I switched from version to version and completely analyzed it but can't find fault, and i usually hate 'Classic.' tracks being messed around with. Nice.:-)
I have "Cut For Life" as I have the LTD Edition triple vinyl and LTD Edition 2CD copies of Leftism. This track is merely "Song Of Life" on the non-limited versions.
'You've Remixed this ! ! ! ! ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Er like coz I must b 'ignorant coz it 'soundz' an 'feels like TOTALLY like the ORIGINAL song of life ! I was there on the scene with my guys 'Leftield' 2 U ! but your just playin Trogn Horse ! ! ! NO WAY HAVE U 'TAMPERED' With this track ! ! ! ! ! ! JOHNATHON MF STARK ! ! ! !
@keggyhander ..yo dude screw the techno politikz......and just rise!!...I was in HMP....we use to chk this and the walls melted (get it?)........oh freedom within oneself is ultimate....bless
Wot you guys are after is 'Cut For Life' - an official re-edited mix by Leftfield which was released on a promo EP before Leftism came out. Very rare, then Leftism was re-released a few years back with it on (I now have it and it's amazing). If anybody's interested, I'm currently working on a remix of this track, which retains the Leftism elements and some new synths and stuff. Brings the track right up to date ;-)
"I had always thought the dance part of the track was too short"...Was thinking the same just yesterday after dragging out the 'Tomb Raider' sound track again. Thanks for this!
This is great - it's only the beginning that lets it down. Please fix it - I would love to pass this around, if you did. :)

If you listen I've put backing vocals where they were previously missing, plus other small tweaks.

I am the proud owner of a copy of "Cut for life". There was a re-release of open up a few years back and cut for life was on the B side - result!
I've also done a remix of "song of life", check it out...
