Well, BT certainly has some problems with his ego, so quite possibly he made it up. But having said in my opinion his remix of "Let There Be Light" is much better than Hardfloor's one (let's face all of their remixes are very formulaic), but each to its own after all. I'll try to find out something about these rumours from the A&R guy at Perfecto during that time. Will keep you posted.

don't think this exists. BT sounds like he's still bitter that his mix of Depeche Mode's "It's No Good" was never officially released. i have it and "it's no good" all right. that should have been the name of his remix. also the Hardfloor remix of Mike Oldfield's "Let there be light", puts the BT mix to shame. but i do like some of his own material. :)
getting back to the point though. don't think it was made. someone here would have mentioned this long ago, if it did exist.

Can anyone here clear once and for all what is the deal with this remix? According to rumours back in 1995 (or 1996), Perfecto planned to release "Divinity" as a single and commisioned The Orb/LTJ Bukem to do remixes. Later they abandoned the whole release, so none of it has ever seen the light of day. The funny thing is nobody has ever heard these remixes to my knowledge. I think it was confirmed later that LTJ Bukem remix was just a rumour and Bukem had never touched it, but the situation is a bit more complicated with The Orb remix. If my memory serves me right, someone once asked Alex about this remix and he told that the remix had never existed. Now you'd think that that would settle everything once and for all, but when I asked BT about it, he confirmed that the remix did indeed exist and it's shit (according to BT). Now I don't know who to believe. Nobody has ever heard this remix and LX confirmed that it didn't exist (although I don't have first hand information about it), but on the other hand these rumours have been circulating for like 7 years and accoriding to BT the remix was made. Anyone here have any information about it?
Cheers, Roman
