Although the Silver Apples were key innovators in electronic
music, I honestly never really got into their albums. This remix
disc, despite a slow start, is actually pretty good! Here's your
AMG paste:
It's rare that a remix album strays so far from its original
tapes and still makes for a good record. Perhaps it's due to the
fact that Beacon, Silver Apples' 1997 return to recorded music,
was less than eventful. Truly, the remixes of Beacon's songs
sound far better than the originals and that is undoubtedly a
testament to its remixers. It's a good thing that Silver Apples'
early work had such an influence on today's electronic
producers. Included on this disc are innovative reworkings from
Sonic Boom (of Spacemen 3), Him, Salaryman (of Poster Children),
and Snowpony. Surprisingly welcome are the new versions of ""You
and I," ""Misty Mountain," and ""I Have Known Love" that Silver
Apples themselves re-recorded for Beacon. Essentially, this is
the third time around for these songs, and on Beacon Remixed,
they sound newer than ever. Lloop's mix of ""You and I" is a
vocal free drum'n'bass assault that hardly resembles either the
first or second take of this song. And Skylab's ""I Have Known
Love" is a complete reverse of the original, this time without
drums. It's actually a brilliant closer for the album, as it
features Simeon's detuned vocals over simple guitar strums and
bassy synths, ending in a flurry of discordant noise. Depending
on the artist, the album takes many turns from genre to genre,
and serves as an interesting tribute to one of the most
important bands in underground music.
