Winner (Andrew Dawson Happy/Sad Remix)

[retrofuturist]

Greetings,

I just heard the full version of this mix on Soundcloud.

It's OK. It's got a bit of an ambient vibe going on, but doesn't really go anywhere. The first half, which is instrumental, is probably more interesting than the second half, when Neil's vocals are introduced.

Retro.

There's a definite Moby sound there, especially his more recent work.

Thanks for telling, isn't it allowed to post a link here? Listening right now.

Well, the fact you're able to listen to it right now probably suffices doesn't it?



Retro.

The intro is ace.

And I prefer the remix to the album version. Might swap them in my listening copy.

I guess so... Pretty good remix I must say, even though I agree it's best before Neil starts singing which really tells it all - as it until then really isn't anything about PSB.

There are very few moments in an artist career where a producer gets as deeply involved into the artist's original idea, that he can eventually come up with and intense, sensitive, provocative and brilliant alternative production of a particular song.

There are very few remixers capable of taking you out of the original's mood and still sound fresh and unique.
Even fewer being able to transport the listener throughout the entire song with a variaty of sonic landscapes and textures, full of love nostalgic melodies embracing your soul until there's nothing else to exhale.

This is the case for Mr Andrew Dawson's HAPPYSAD remix of WINNER.
What an intimidating and atonishing remix he's done!

I don't think I will survive the release of quality compositions like this one much longer!!

I'm in complete agreement with this. So glad that they are releasing the instrumantal disc alongside Elysium. Judging by the snippets and the general quality of this phase so far I think i've found a new favourite album. Very happy - or happy/sad - indeed.

It's not that exciting. It sounds like an Underworld offcut.

However, it is nice to get a remix that's not yet another lifeless copy-and-paste beat-fest.

Retro.

This version is seriously amazing !

I can almost forgive them (EMI ? PSB ?) for releasing the original version. Excellent job Mr. Dawson !

[Harleyeight]

Just heard it, excellent mix

[Tom Angel]

Can't wait for Sunday to hear this!

Nikki and the Dove remix is also on Soundcloud.

It's a great remix/version, spoilt only by the inclusion of the trite lyrics...especially the chorus.

Why do PSB fans always expect subtle lyrics? The PSB do not need to prove their skills every single time. They are a pop band above all.
