My Bloody Valentine - 'Soon' (ANDY WEATHERALL REMIX)

[shocktk]

Needs more feedback. And 50,000 digeridoo players.

[Eightfold11]

fucking great great record

[BackstothePlanet]

Thanx for posting this, always a pleasure...

[cotski72]

Mr Weatherall at his fucking best .

[echo680]

great !...just heard this once on radio befrore, thankx for posting

[Kagemusha22]

Interesting, but it definitely doesn't improve the track like how Weatherall's remix of "I'm Losing More Than I Ever Had" did. (Which became 'Loaded')

[lkorlaet]

great crossover!

noise pop vs. madchester

best of both worlds! ;)

[TuMira85]

Dude, you can't remix MBV. It's like putting ketchup in on cake.

[djnross]

Amen,Tumira!

[dibble1973]

bullshit.



[Chainedown]

interesting stuff thanks for the upload!

[GuyInChair206]

please delete from youtubes. I hate lazy djs.

[mikeysynth86]

Actually Weatherall is from lazy. Ever heard of Primal Scream, he produced them with wait... Kevin Shields in the lineup.

[geebeetee1]

This reminds me of rocking down at Phutures,

with the man himself Mr Weatherall Djing.

Top Stuff!!

[TheMadFerret]

Another superb remix by Andy Weatherall, I love the way he samples Westbam's - Alarm Clock..

[bboytracks]

@TheMadFerret He doesn't sample Westbam. He Samples Gang Of Four! Get Your Facts Right Knobend!

[TheMadFerret]

@bboytracks

Wind yer neck in.

[NateSpurs]

I think this mix is great. All you MBV purists need to get over yourselves. I love them myself and i see this as a great homage to them. Perhaps you weren't going to any parties back then. If you did you wouldn't be so worried i'm sure.

[macizo25]

lol are you saying that MBV are nerds and dont go out to parties ???

[Chainedown]

I think Kevin Shields called himself and his friends 'nerds' before, in some interview.

[mogsy1975]

i would like to add a comment on this very divisive song, love it or hate it this was played in all the underground raves/clubs 90-91, and is regarded as a classic to all those in the know, which shows the ones that hate it never went near a rave back then, maybe their local ritzys!! right i feel much better now!

[scruffjones]

absolutely right me old mucca!!

weatherall was the hero back then with the boys own fellas ( flying )

a load of the tunes from back in 89-91 were really quite slow on the bpms and i look back now and think how we used to dance to all that when it was slow but we did as they hadnt much else !!

[mikew4001]

Great remix of Andy Weatherall, he brought the song to heaven... a real dance classic!

[avalyn5]

Oh dear, This is Bobbins!

[redevil459]

way to kill a good song

[sonicjay007]

just cant wait to see them in june!last time was april '92'!

[willnido]

la primera parte es horrible, con esas voces hip hop no pe, luego mejora!

[mogsy1975]

i thought this was called glider?

[billybondsisafteryou]

It was off the Glider EP. Classic stuff, takes me back

[ResidentMich]

It was on The Glider Remixes but the tune was called soon. I have both on 12".

[Verifyconnect]

What I think is Great is that Andrew is finally getting really what He Has Always Deserved and for that I think He will go into History as One of the Greatest Ever!!

[LunaSeaSane]

Poor.

[MarcusJH1970SX]

Why poor?

[LunaSeaSane]

Look Marcus,

I am all for bringing songs into a new light, through remixes. But in this case, the sampling is repetitive and the added beat/percussion really doesn't favor it so much.

I honestly think this kind of approach is more apropriate for pop divas or somebody like Grace Jones, but not My Bloody Valentine.

[MarcusJH1970SX]

OK Luna,

"the sampling is repetitive": surely that's the point? When you sit on a groove, everything move! Weatherall is the master of the slow build; mashing up a dancelfloor with a fine selection of repetitive beats.

My Bloody Valentine were a shit indie band who produced a wealth of crap music. What Wethers did with them, and many others, was bring some life to thrir moribund music.

All hail the Good Doctor!

[LunaSeaSane]

I don't agree at all.

My Bloody Valentine were perhaps a musical category you dislike. As far as Alternative goes, they had a surprising sensibility and did their job well.

Crap music is what I define as most of the dance music I hear on the radio; lacks depth, defies nothing, sits on miles of repetitive groove, synths, boring lyrics and economic melodies.

But I still wouldn't define all electronic music that way. I apreciate some good, clever programming.

[JakeAnti]

The majority of MBV's music is COMPLETELY different to anything to any DJ. You cannot compare the two.

The only reason I like listening to remixes like this is because they usually strip the song into the individual layers and it's interesting to hear each one separately.

[AOCRkid]

any tips on how to isolate sounds and layers like that??

[JakeAnti]

No sorry, I don't think there's any way to do it without getting the individual tracks off the artists. However if there is a way then please let me know :)

[cotski72]

true mate

[precinct]

Kevin Sheilds would have created a better dance remix of his own track than Weatherall did. This is v.fucking ordinary.

You fookin' monkey.

[alexlondono]

I think this is pretty cool, not so sure about the voices at the start of the video though, but the more the song progresses the better it gets.

[alexlondono]

Isn't this the guy who produced Higher Than the Sun by Primal Scream?

[rekluziv]

I believe he produced an entire album for them. Oh yeah, Screamadelica, that's the one. I had to do a presentation on Scottish bands and I talked about Primal Scream, that's how I learned. He's a.k.a. Sabres of Paradise and Two Lone Swordsmen, I think.

[alexlondono]

Why specifically Scottish bands lol?

[rekluziv]

Because it was a course on Scotland and its culture,a and we had to pick a topic for a presentation. Being a complete ignoramus on historic and cultural issues, I picked the easiest and the most fun topic. Besides, I like Mogwai and even JAMC.

[alexlondono]

JAMC are possibly my favourite band at the moment, I never really get bored of them.

[jasonspurs]

you are right my friend he is still good long may he live forever

[MarcusJH1970SX]

He didn't produce the entire album - about seven traks were all his and the others were done by Jimmy Miller, Hypnotone, Andrew Innes, Hugo Nicolson, The Orb. Class album though - he took the Scream from being tragic indie losers to fine purveyors of quality dance music. And by the by, this MBV track 'remix' is almost lifted in it's entirety from Alarm Clock by Westbam. Not a problem - Weatherall is my fave ever DJ and a f****n genius.

[precinct]

This is a stinky remix.

Weatherall has done some great stuff this isn't it.

And DJ's and producers are never geniuses.

You need a tap on the nose you boneheaded cunt.

[jamieph1970]

Gosh - you sound really hard. You actually use the word cunt as well - very tough. Have you ever seen Weatherall DJ or listened to any of his 'own' music? You twat.

[bboytracks]

@MarcusJH1970SX Wrong! It's lifted from Gang Of Four's "What We All Want" and Rich Nice's "The Rhythm, The Feeling"!

[arkestra1976]

No he isn't!

[rekluziv]

Aww crap. I give up.

[mlammin]

rekluziv, i think you must be listening to this track far too much - get some sleep!

[rekluziv]

LOL I listen to EVERYTHING too much. People just don't upload enuff new stuff, and I NEED the background music for focusing on anything written. Just off the record, could you delete some of these comments of mine, I'm really starting to regret them. :-)

[mlammin]

no, i like your comments! keep 'em coming.

[rekluziv]

I just hope other people do too.

[rekluziv]

Thought I already had, but apparently the thing didn't work. Now, there. Five stars.

[rekluziv]

The more I listen to this, the more this grows on me! I change my rating to 5 stars!

[rekluziv]

How exactly does one describe this track? Fun, rhythmic, psychedelic? Cool it is, that's for sure.
