Who knows if and when Ich Bin Music (Pet Shop Boys Remix) 4:49 will be released widely. Currently it's probably the most obscure and hard to come by song by PSB. Not many others are exclusive to CD, and the ones that are have been shared online.
I'm looking forward to hearing it, but I'm not expecting much.
The first statement isn't quite correct...
Note that there's also the instrumental version of "The way through the woods" which is probably among the rarest Japanese bonus tracks at this point, probably after the original Extended Version of "This must be the place..." Others that come to mind are the Boys Noize Dub of "Axis" (this is barely different to the original mix, trust me), and the Sex Mix of "Love etc."
More by luck than judgement, I have all of those.

Apparently the Japanese edition contains, as a bonus track, a new remix of Ich Bin Musik: the "Pet Shop Boys Remix", slightly longer than the original, from 4:16 up to 4:46.

JP release date was yesterday, 17th of December. It's not even on Discogs yet.
I'd love to hear the track before deciding whether it's worth importing, but I can't find it anywhere just yet...

The remix for Claptone is truly brilliant. The best track on the album for me.
I wasn't expecting anything from this album and I'm really enjoying it.

The Moody mix on the 12” is also really nice.

The whole original Claptone 12” with the 3 remixes is a must. The Moody mix is a very good one, I agree.

And its produced by Stuart Price, who’s working on the new Madonna album.

My favourite is the Hidden Cameras remix - brilliant!

No more Price please! His work with PSB unfortunately meant diminished returns after Electric. I mostly prefer the tracks they did themselves between 2015-2020. Many of them still had that edge that was so appealing with Electric. Super and Hotspot became too bland, and the lyrics too weak.
