Things Falling Apart

[katara]

In this digital age of music, it's not hard to simply make your own tracklist and just chuck it on your device. That said, I'd rather listen to the album as it was intended. Charlie Clouser's final Starfuckers, Inc remix is an awesomely destructive closer. If I were to change one thing about TFA, it would be to exchange the 'remix' of 10 Miles High (which really needed more work, as it was almost identical to the one on Halo 15) with Hillebrandt's version of The Fragile.

Asides from the Dreijer Me,I'mNot remix that I'm also not into, YZR is really underrated.

Disagree. Much of that album is mulch. The first three tracks, The Warning, (maybe Meet Your Master), and then the last three tracks are good. Saul's Survivalism is also good but that was already on the single, so it's redundant here.
That Capital G remix is appalling. Laswell's Vessel is basically the same as the album mix, and everything else is mediocre at best. Plus, it's really disappointing that there was no Reznor remix.
Me, I'm Not would have been okay if it were maybe four or five minutes long. It's an okay idea, just extended to such a degree that it's almost unlistenable to.

The worst thing about YZR is that there were so many talented artists on remix.nin.com producing amazing remixes and they were all almost completely ignored.

Not so. It actually has a danceable bassline. I think I'd prefer the remix to the LP version, if it combined the best moments of the three (!) different edits into five minutes.

It is exactly the same song with some badly tweaked EQ and some minor percussion additions. Extremely lazy.

Now that remix.nin.com is defunct, it's hard to find much. But check these out:


Animalweapon remix


Way more talent than Bill fucking Laswell.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'll be raising Coil and TTA from the dead so we can have some decent remixes again for a change.

Everything TweakerRay does is awesome.

And, as for Coil, they're responsible for the deepest, weirdest, most singular NIN remixes I've ever heard.

Hmmm, good choices but I obviously disagree about Bill Laswell, he added a great bassline to the remix, which is more prominently featured in the vinyl edit, and incidentally he happens to be one of the most prolific musicians of the 20th century with over 1800 credits on Discogs. But it's a funk remix, there didn't need to be huge changes made in order to get it funkier... which is exactly what it is.

Telefon Tel Aviv isn't dead, Josh Eustis was touring under the name last year and he is working on new material!
