Day 20. Bjork - Human Behaviour (Underworld Remix)
Bjork's debut solo single was given a huge UW makeover giving it an almost tribal feel. A promo 12" added two dub versions entitled Bjork In An Underworld Adventure, also stunning. ๐

Number 1: took the most beautiful song and made it an all time dance classic

#Top20Remixes #HappyMondays
Day 19. Happy Mondays - Hallelujah (Club Mix)
Another top Oakenfold remix along with Weatherall too, the song that made the Mondays big. Madchester raved on indeed. ๐

#Top20Remixes
Could have a top 20 of Paul Oakenfold remixes on his own but this is my favourite.

#Top20Remixes #U2 #Perfecto
Day 18. U2 - Lemon (Perfecto Mix)
As a Fall fan I obviously dislike U2, but throw in a cool Oakenfold remix that was a ยฃ100 rare as hen's teeth promo originally, one can then admit to liking a few of their early songs and Achtung Baby.

#Top20Remixes
Even better than the real thing

#Top20Remixes #TheOrb
Day 17. The Orb - Blue Room (Frank de Wulf Remix)
A nice club friendly take on the Orb classic, maintaining the best bits of the original (esp Jah Wobble's bass) while not rambling on for 40 minutes. ๐

#Top20Remixes #TheKLF
Day 16. The KLF - What Time Is Love (Moody Boys vs The KLF)
More a remodel than a remix but it's a cracking one. Despite being totally different to any other version, it still contains enough KLF noises to make it viable here I think ๐

#Top20Remixes #PrimalScream
Day 15. Primal Scream - Come Together (Weatherall Remix)
Another Weatherall offering, this one is a most joyously uplifting song as it does indeed "come together", adding each instrument and vocal in turn to it's glorious finale.

Day 14. Massive Attack - Teardrop (Mad Professor Remix)
If ever the question of whether perfection can be improved on or not comes up, the answer is most definitely "yes". โฅ๏ธ

#Top20Remixes #TheFall
Day 13 . D.O.S.E. feat Mark E Smith - Plug Myself In (2Pointblanc Intensive Care Mix)
A bit of self indulgence, this is a great remix of MES' collaboration with DOSE, replacing the heavy breakbeats with a more club friendly trance version...

#Top20Remixes #KIllingJoke
Day 12. Killing Joke - Turn To Red (In Dub)
I'm assuming a Youth remix, this is from the In Dub collection and it's absolutely the best version... โฅ๏ธ
www.youtube.com/watch?v=y3-b...
Blimey, I swear I didn't copy but I literally just posted this in #Top20Remixes. ๐ง Great choice btw ๐
#Top20Remixes #FSOL
Day 11. FSOL - Papua New Guinea (Andrew Weatherall Mix)
Another Weatherall classic, and there were many. PPNG in it's original format is difficult to improve on, but Weatherall stamped his own mark on it without losing the beauty of the song.

#Top20Remixes #FallFriday
Day 10. The Fall - Masquerade (Mr Natural Mix)
No idea who Mr Natural is but he does a damn fine Chemical Brothers impersonation (apparently it's not them doing the knob twiddling)...

#Top20Remixes #ChemicalBrothers
Day 9. Chemical Brothers - Out Of Control (Sasha Remix)
If you thought the LP mix was perfect (Bernard Summer v Donna Sumner), have a listen to this. Nice and true to the original but 'avin it large (as the kids would say). ๐

#Top20Remixes #TheShamen
Banging Meat Beat Manifesto remix, not exactly to my rule of faithfulness to the original, but I don't care, MBM made a monster here and the dub mixes are even heavier. I once had two students dancing on my doorstep to this, long story... ๐

#Top20Remixes #Finitribe #AndrewWeatherall
Day7. Finitribe - 101 (Intensity Mix)
The classic Finitribe tune given a deliciously dubby spaced out Weatherall treatment....

#Top20Remixes #NewOrder
Day 6. New Order - Bizzare Love Triangle (Stephen Hague 12" Remix)
It was to be Ruined In A Day (K-Klass) or Blue Monday (Hardfloor) or True Faith (Shep), but then this unreleased gem from Brotherhood Definitive finally got an airing ๐...

#Top20Remixes #NIN
Day 4. NIN - Ruiner (version)
An excellent if routine piece of techno is suddenly called out when Trent kicks @2m 30s and all hell lets loose ๐

#Top20Remixes #PSBs #PetShopBoys
Day4. Pet Shop Boys - West End Girls (Sasha Dub)
They put the Sasha Remix on the IWNDTKOT CD and/or 12" single but the Sasha Dub was a promo only release, and a lot better too. More faithful to the original then the released mix.

#Top20Remixes #TheOrb
Day 3. Keiichi Suzuki - Satellite Serenade (The Orb's Transasian Express Mix)
No remix list would be complete without an Aubrey Mix, this one is lovely, a huge retake of a very much traditional Japanese song. Also features David Attenborough.

Hmm, as I thought, I'm on my own here... ๐ซค
Never mind, it means no one will mind me posting this one...
Day2. Motorhead - Ace Of Spades (CCN Remix)
Fully authorised by Lemmy himself ๐

#Top20Remixes
Day 1 Depeche Mode - Strangelove (Hijack Mix)
AKA Strangelove 88, this was created because DM's US record company didn't like the original so roped in Bomb The Bass to beef it up a bit.
