I have not heard any mixes either. I am patiently waiting for this album to drop before going back and pulling out said remixes. I read once that Neil and Chris go through Beatport to find new music and perhaps this is a way that they find people to remix tracks for them?

I'm sure JCRZ will come up trumps with one or two in this vein.

This is far better than any of the official remixes. I do hope someone makes an old skool piano house version.

WaWa in its edited version almost tops the original for me. The other mixes are just pure **** (no, not 4 stars)

I think the mixes are all pretty good. My fave being the Rektchordz mix, which is the most nineties dance and as Raggatwin mentioned is very MK ish, parts are almost identical to his 'Dub of Doom' remix of Nightcrawlers 'Push This Feelng On'

On this day: 1989: 'It's Alright' is released as a single.

To be fair IT'S remixes didn't improve on the original, but it underlines how badly Vocal has done remix wise.

The sterling viod remix is better than the 7" for me......

not bad..but not brilliant

I thought Nacha Chapado was a new moniker of Tom Stephan/Superchumbo, didnt realise he was spanish dj. Guess it cross all the ticks as a booming tribal mix. Will sound huge in the clubs

The Vocal mixes are proper club mixes. No doubt about that.

Oh, It's Alright... love the Sterling Void mix (genius to pass it back to him), but the backing vocals at the end the album version are one of the finest moments in pop music.

Going to dig out the sterling void mix - that was on the pink cover version wasn't it? As you say, genius idea giving it back to him. I'd like to read an interview with him about that

hehe Not quite. His 'new' project's called The Cucarachas.
... and yes they've done a mix too.

1. Pet Shop Boys- Vocal (Cucarachas Mix)
This is my kind of music! Song of the summer! Love it! And I love even more that my Cucaracha partner Borja Peña and I had the opportunity to remix it!

In defence of digital DJ-ing!

I like the chilled vibe in this mix. Could have done with a little more going on as it does get a bit tedious after a while.
