I LOVE the 80s. From synth pop (Depeche Mode, Pet Shop Boys, Human League, Erasure, Gary Numan, Rational Youth, Boytronic) to the rare & hard to find (B-Movie, MCL, Voyou, Moskwa TV, Axodry, Mysterious Art, Secession). This is what introduced me to electronic music.

True
"Dune have also done a version of Forever Young."
I think you are talking about "Who wants to live forever" unless you are talking about actual "Forever young" being reproduced/mixed by Dune. Not sure i heard that one.
Btw, who all will agree that Filter - Take My Picture (Hybrid Mix) can pass as an 80s Track mixed in 2000 and a very nice mix at that too ?

worst 80's remix ever: well there are a lot of them but Noel Sanger's remix of In a big country might just take the cake. it's not so much the track Noel wrote around it but the fact that breaks and 80's pop should never ever ever meet. the result is something, lurid, dark and malevolant.
listen to it in my mix. its the fifth song in. might change your mind.heres a link:

That's far from a fact. The two met many times with great success in the 80's. Why shouldn't they meet though?....

Oh, because you don't like the way it sounds to your refined earlobes. Music too tough for ya, huh? Too dark is it? Not enough pretty melodies to keep you enthralled? Baby want his baba? Huh? It's true though, Merzbow ain't got nothin' on Debbie Deb.
