Trans Fatty Acid (Kruder & Dorfmeister Remix)
Lamb
The K&D Sessions | Disc 1, 1998 (CD, not available on iTunes)
Yet another gem from the Dale mixtape vaults. I actually just looked up the original version of this song (use the player at the top right) because I’ve never heard it before and this remix puts it to shame. In fairness, I’m used to this version after hearing it for years but I have the feeling the majority of you might agree.
This has recently become an end-of-night song for Rani (my Madame X Thursdays bartender-partner-in-crime) and I. I’ve rarely played it over the years because it zones out for so long but she asked if I had it a few weeks ago and I was more than excited to have an excuse to play it.
I’m curious as to how what the remix process entailed. It really sounds like a live performance (applause and all). It’s one of those songs where you can “hear the room” but I doubt it was actually recorded live. The album credits don’t give any details about musicians. Anyone know anything about it?
Songs are available for two weeks.
