Insanely Alive - Wolfgang Tillmanns (Fragile)

 


Title: Insanely Alive 

Artist:  Wolfgang Tillmanns

Label: Fragile

Cat Number: Fragike013

Genre: Poptastic


1: Insanely Alive (Pet Shop Boys Radio Edit)

2: Insanely Alive (Pet Shop Boys Maxi Mix)

3: Insanely Alive (Total Freedom & Sami Bahar’s Spooky Curse/Special Blessing Mix)

4: Insanely Alive (Original)


As is obvious from the track listing, this is a remix package with the original having been included for chaps like me as a point of reference. Such as it is,  a vocal which is beatless, minimally adorned by a keyboard and sounding like the Lithuanian entry at Eurovision, a rerub was a good idea. The PSB Maxi Mix adds some bollocks and sounds like the Pet Shop Boys, with the vocal sounding better at the quicker tempo. Still sounds like Eurovision though. The Total Freedom, etc mix feels like it was made by a travelling circus troupe and also sounds like a Eurovision entry, but one of those more abstract ones that needs ridiculous stage dynamics to carry it off.
