As for the Pet Shop Boys, yes PSB were noted in the press as being big fans of the KLF. So I think that had something to do with it. But money comes back into the picture as well. I think PSB was still quite popular back then, so doing a remix for them would of probably netted them some nice cash. Same thing for the Depeche Mode remix of Policy of Truth that they did. I don't think I have heard of Depeche Mode being big fans of the KLF, so maybe Bill and Jimmy did the remix just to make some money. Either that, or they themselves were big fans of Policy of Truth, and wanted to do a remix for it.
i think that bill and jimmy might have been into DM more than PSB, because their DM remix is a lot closer to the original than the PSB remix(es). --- micah stupak micah@benthic.cc oblique strategy: from nothing to more than nothing
