What about a Fugitive mini album?

#1 Post by andrhedb »

Wouldn´t it be a great, as a sort of "3rd single from the album but not really", to release Fugitive as a mini-album. It could include a couple of new Richard X songs or as a worst case some remixes of old songs? He did wonders to Bizarre Love Triangle... Some way we just have to get some more RX produced tracks!

I think they should do a whole six-track album with him. Fugitive really is tremendous and their styles compliment each other so well.

How do you mean?

Like this? -

01. Fugitive
02. *new song* - produced by RX and/or RX + PSB
03. *new song* - produced by RX and/or RX + PSB
04. *new song* - produced by RX and/or RX + PSB
05. Heart - Richard X Remix

*edit*
or

01. *new song*
02. *new song*
03. *new song*
04. *new song*
05. *new song*
All produced by Richard X and/or RX + PSB

I'd just like the "proper", so to say, original/7" mix of Fugitive as a B-Side on Minimal.
However, I think him doing a remix of Heart would be quite good! 8)

Yeah, That would be very good.
Perhaps they should just give him more of thier unfinished songs, since he seems to know what to do with them.

quite frankly,fundamentalism is most likely the closest we will get to a fugitive mini CD. its just that alot of us didnt like what was on it other than well.....fugitive.

I doubt after the major task of completing fundamental they would want to essencialy cut another CD. I think they are in tour mode now.

I still fail to see what is sound-wise so amazing on Fugitive. Not that it would be bad, but hilarious? It's partly from late 80s (as some fans of the track actually admit)! Hey, it's 2006.

The Resurrectionist ext. is at least as good as this. And maybe I would dare to say that Trentmoller mix of S&G is sound-wise more innovative. IMHO of course.

this is a great idea!
after releasing proper three singles from Fundamental, it would be awesome if they would release 4th single ''Fugitive EP'' but it would be chart ineligible

Fugitive EP

01. Fugitive (7'' mix)
02. In private (7'' mix) (feat. Sam Taylor-Wood)
03. Being boring (Stuart Chricton club mix)
04. Love comes quickly (Richard X remix)
05. Numb (Trouser Enthusiasts all-the-madness remix)
06. Out of my system 2006

:lol:

Why it could not chart when Discos can?

Discos are considered as remix albums, that's different
PSB have never released an EP, so they should!

Well but there was 5 standard + 5 mix tracks on D3, and you have 2 standard + 4 mix tracks here...? :wink:
