Thomas did some wonderful stuff a few years back. He was certainly a highlight for a while.

Shame he no longer dabbles in the remix stuff but understandable that he now has a busy life and one i'm sure he prefers.

I look back at that time with fondness there were some cracking remixers doing some damn good stuff who now are no longer creating mixes.

Thomas Detert, Lman, o2, Glyn R Brown, Trace, wobbler, and there's more.

Good years they were - and i'm happy to have experienced them.

Ferrara was pumping out remixes in 2001, than it trickled down to one Remix in 2005 and one this year.

Like you said I guess we just to be happy to have what we have.

Yeah, Trace! You do. Keep' em coming! Thanks! :D

There were Up and Downs before, I think.

I guess in that "Golden Remixing Time" the rod was placed so high that a lot of people are kind of intimidated. Many of those remixers moved to other shores. New ones had to compete with already awesome remixes, so it's difficult to dish out original ideas that rock the place.
All is lost.

I must join the conversasion... I still think that 'o2 - Nemesis the Warlock' & 'o2 - Zoids' are the best tracks that I've heard so far on RKO.
My favorit 10 also include also 'Instant Remedy - Outrun', and others...

I like their style, I like their remixes.

Well, that's all I have to say. I don't know why I wrote this, but, I guess that this is one of those moments... :)
I say there is an invisible elf in my backyard. How do you prove that I am wrong?

Can I point out that Nemesis the Warlock on "Sidologie" was kind of "O2 - Nemesis the Warlock Part II" (Marcel and Carsten worked together a bit!), and "Ancestors" ended up in a more polished and rerecorded version on BIT 3 and Crystal Dreamscapes.

Also Ocean Loader 2 on Karma 64 is a rerecorded version of O2s RKO version.
