DNB: Everything But The Girl – Walking Wounded (Spring Heel Jack Dub Mix)
As a change, a remix, rather than an original.
A bit like all the indie acts in the early 90s getting a dance remix, so in the mid-90s everyone seemed to be getting a dnb remix. Here’s one from 1996 for quintessential indie act Everything But The Girl who would move almost completely into dance. The remix is provided by Spring Heel Jack (John and Coxon Ashley Wales) who moved the other way, from dnb to contemporary jazz (more here). They keep the pained strings and add skippy beats. I’ve gone for the dub version to avoid the distraction of Tracey’s voice. Still sounds pretty good.
