being a beck fan before aphex twin, i was kinda familiar with this track as a wee lad. kinda hated it.
but now that im ze official #1 aphex twin fanboi, i kinda like this song,... if it wasnt the pitched shifted vocals.
if ignore them and focus on the music, theres a really cool song under there, (kinda reminds me of pilot wings on snes).
an instrumental would be nice, but probaly impossible from the song alone...
what you think of this.. this... remix.

Is it just me or does it sound poorly produced, dull like it's mastered from a very old, cheap cassette.

hmm, i dunno, but another thing is, the vocals seem out of time..
i'm quite positive, if it wasnt for the vocals, the song would sound clean, and it would be a fan favourite amongst aphex twin fans all over the globe... maybe

not as good as the original beck track. not as good as what aphex twin usually does, either.

unreleased cornish acid with beck acapella half-assed dropped in.
probably done in one take for about $8,000-$10,000
love the aphex track. the beck remix version gets on my nerves though. particularly when the vocals seem to drift during the cymbal-ride/breakdown..

theres a beck page about the song...
Interestingly, in an interview in October/November, 1996, James said this: "I only call remixing work?if I don't want to do it. I turned down a Beck remix the other day for £5,000 because it was doing my head in." A month later though, things have changed. An interview with Disquiet.com on December 24, 1996 began by James sayin he was just working on "That 'Devils Haircut' thing." The interviewer says he loves the song, and James explains his initial ambivalence, "I did the mix ages ago, but, um, I didn't like it. I thought I was just doing it for the money. But when I chilled out and listened to it about a week later, I really loved . . . I really liked it."

if he really loved . . . liked it, then i wonder why it didn't appear on 26 mixes.

what i'm looking for right now is the alternate version of 'thunder peel' that was playing on beck.com some time ago... not the version on stereopathetic soulmanure, a longer one, recorded afterwards...

when he said he loved.. he thought of the song, then he remembered the annoying high pitched out of time singing and corrected himself saying he liked it.

The only way the track really reaches its potentitial is if I use Ableton Live craxx0r3d version to shoehorn a Beach Boys track into it, then the magic becomes apparent.
