Since we're bringing up good BoC remixes...

Post by ArbitersGround »

Normally I don't like remixes of BoC. I listened to that Helios one that was posted here just now and gotta admit it's absolutely fantastic.

Anyways, it got me remembering the "anew contraption" remix. That was an amazing remix that really just sums of BoC incredibly well. For those who haven't heard it:



I don't really like this video. To me, it misses the point of BoC a little bit and really does nothing for the song, plus it just feels random.

HOWEVER, there was another music video, with clips of David The Gnome edited to match the music. This video was great, and to me that combination of music and video really just fit BoC's vibe excellently. It was pretty popular, but it doesn't appear to be on youtube anymore. I couldn't find it for the longest time, but I just found it now and thought I'd share it with you guys if you haven't seen it already (or if you would like to see it again, but can't find it on youtube).

This version seems to only be 5 minutes long and not have the full version. Plus I can tell you right now from my memory of when it was on youtube that the video is a couple seconds ahead of the audio, so a few parts don't sync up as nicely.

If anyone knows (or has) a better version of this video to watch, please share it here. I really loved this video.

I'm glad you enjoyed that track, it's awesome. Thought it needed to be heard and yes I love a new contraption.

Anew Contraption is one of my faves!! I'm happy to see it has not been forgotten..

Another odd remix that I favour is called "Blake Jarrell's Dayvan Cowboy Remix". I disliked it for a long time, then I had one of those moments where it came on randomly while I was at a friends house and it just struck me in a such a way that I fell in love with it. Of course, the LSD we were on at the time may have had something to do with it...but still, I'll throw it on from time to time. It has a feel good vibe :)

I've always enjoyed Keith's BoC covers. Have they all been released? I have a few kicking around:

Melissa Juice (Helios cover) 2:12
Over the Horizon Radar (Helios... 1:04
SevenFortySeven (Helios remix) 6:40
Sixtyniner (Helios cover) 3:25
website flash intro (Helios remix) 6:32

Also, while I haven't made music in years, I have a few covers/remixes of my own from 7-10 years ago

This is still pretty fresh in my playlist, but absolutely amazing cover and the video is pretty neat too!

I used to host the 'Anew Contraption' (David and The Gnome version) once on my youtube channel yawg81. But I had to remove all my BoC videos as I've already received two copyright strikes from YouTube. A third strike would've had my Google YouTube account permanently banned. And that's something I definitely did not want to happen. Sad but true...

That Anew Contraption video was made by Twoism member Sejd and the audio came from Audiodile

I've listed some mixes and remixes on bocpages:

I've sent him a PM. But keep in mind his last post on this forum dates back to: Sun Sep 17, 2006 11:07 pm

Perhaps Aeshetics could lookup his email address so we can send him a mail. :)

I tried 'remixing' everything you do is a balloon. It's on YouTube under St remix. It ain't great but it's the only remix I've done that wasn't pure crap! On my phone so can't link!

Oh wow, great. Really appreciate it.

If nobody minds(?), I wouldn't mind hosting the video on my youtube channel, mentioning all credit where it's due.

I know someone who will mind... the same person that had me removing it from my Yawg81 youtube channel... wanna know who?

GOOGLE! They gave me a copyright violation strike for it..... three strikes and your account becomes permanently blocked. That's why I removed all boc videos from my channel... alas.

That's some shit right there.

Maybe I'll do Vimeo or something just to keep it out there somehow.

That's a great idea. Post back when you've got it done. I'll embed it on bocpages too then.
