It cuts into the song just after the first trademark trill, when the drums thump at the end. It sounds like the Pure Trance version, but overlaying it are chords and keyboard parts from "Go To Sleep". I'm making a big assumption here, but I wonder if this is actually a segment of KLF 8T (i.e., the original ORIGINAL "Last Train to Trancentral")? Haven't heard it, but I don't think it is the original. A couple of weeks/days?? ago someone posted a pressrelease from 8R, and it said that "this is a completely reworking of the original, which haven't surfaced yet", or something like that. Could it be "Go To Sleep Instrumental", "E-Train" or "The Sheriff of Mu Mu County"??
that film version (or the few seconds that we're lucky to hear of it) sounds to me like a work-in-progress, something in between "go to sleep" and "lttt". lttt is basically a stripped-down version of "go to sleep" with some reverb effects and sheep noises over it. this one is the same but with more "go to sleep" elements left in (e.g. the bass line), that's why i think it's something that was recorded between the two. it could well be 008T "e-train to trancentral". the name "e-train" suggests it would be some form of acid house-like track, probably something to cash in on shoom, madchester etc, rather than a beat-less ambient track. needless to say i'd really like to hear the full length version of said track. there's also evidence that mixes of other JAMSLP4 white room tracks exist - for example a few seconds of a (superior) remix of the "white room" song form part of the out-take which on bootlegs is known as the "primal megamix". finally, "chill out" also contains further variations of the lttt track, in "trancentral lost in my mind" there's yet another version that's none of the KLF008R versions.
Could the "Original" and the "Benio" version's be related?????????
what "benio" version? if you are referring to "benio over and out" it's a much later mix, from '91. back in the day, i wrote to the good old po box 283 address and asked about this. cress was kind enough to reply - she wrote that they gave that name to the mix because it was the last thing they recorded/mixed at benio ("the old trancentral"). but all the pure trance stuff was probably recorded and mixed at benio too (most of the sleeves say "recorded at trancentral", don't they?) so pretty much all of the tracks mentioned are "benio" versions in one way or another. cheers Robert
