Eric Prydz vs Floyd - 'Proper Education'

Post categories:

Fraser McAlpine | 10:11 UK time, Thursday, 28 December 2006

Pink Prydz, anyone?

In the spirit of the way in which this record was put together, here's a brand new and exciting review, made by taking an old review of ours (for Queen vs Miami Project. It's here ) and remixing it using more up-to-date technology. Consider the following to have been performed by ChartBlog vs Fader M (clever name-change there), and all will be well. OK? Here goes....

ChartBlog: What is it with the remixing fraternity and the term 'versus' (or 'vs' to give it its full title)? If music were actually a form of battle, or sport there's no question who would win every single one of these heritage remix projects, it's whoever made the original record which is being (only very slightly) tweaked, right?

Fader M: [BOOF! BOOF! BOOF! BOOF! BOOF!]

ChartBlog: Now, don't confuse that thought with some rocksnob rant about how old records should never be tampered with because it's like drawing a willy on the Mona Lisa or something. No-one really cares about that stuff, not while the originals are still available in the shops.

Fader M: [BOOF! BOOF! BOOF! BOOF! BOOF!]

ChartBlog: [Muffled] What is it with the remixing fraternity and the term 'versus'
ChartBlog: [Less muffled] What is it with the remixing fraternity and the term 'versus'
ChartBlog: [Clearer] What is it with the remixing fraternity and the term 'versus'
ChartBlog: [Full strength] What is it with the remixing fraternity and the term 'versus'

Fader M: [BOOF! BOOF! BOOF! BOOF! BOOF!]

ChartBlog: What is it with the remixing fraternity and the term 'versus'. It's like jousting against a massive medieval knight in full armour, on a great big muscley horse, and he's using a telegraph pole for his jousting stick, and then you look down and you're sitting on a Shetland pony, with a lolly-stick, in your pyjamas. And you say "I'll go easy on you, sirrah, for it is the season of Advent."

Fader M: [BOOF! BOOF! BOOF! BOOF! BOOF!]

[FADEOUT]
