493C Current 93 Remixes, Remixed and Covered


This one is a wild ride, but aren't they all?  I pulled together the worthwhile remixes and covers I could find, some fan made, others officially released.  The opening track is probably as close to a David Tibet remix as will appear, its the original track with some added effects and noise so it counts.  I tried to limit the tracks pulled from the only official tribute album "The Bells Shall Sound Forever."  The tracks that sampled C93 are appropriately labeled, though shouldn't be too difficult to find that source material used in them.  The Matmos remix is on probably the only official remix EP for C93, and its all good stuff especially if you are a JG Thirwell fan.  There's a couple fan made mash-ups, however I think they work pretty well.  The one with Bomb the Bass I've had for years and remember I had some online chats with the artist that was responsible for it, sorry for the low bitrate on that one.  The massive remix box set from Andrew Liles is here with the shortest track on it, which is representative of the larger picture for those interested.  Of course I ended it with the powerful cover by Rotting Christ.

493B Current 93 Manifestations


Mr. Tibet has a knack for showing up in some unexpected places.  Other times, he shows up exactly where you'd expect.  All of these tracks feature him as a guest, either on vocals, backing vocals, or some instrument like the bone flute.

For your further research and potential listening pleasure, here is a list of tracks I do have but chose to omit:
Lee "Scratch" Perry – Baby Sucker (I'd say this is a questionable appearance, and not a great LSP song)
The Bevis Frond - Right On Hippie Dream (Way too long for a mix)
Mark Stewart - Nothing is Sacred? (can't really tell if he's on this or not)
Nurse With Wound (A LOT! He's on the majority of the first decade or two worth of records)
Coil (Nearly every albums thanks or is dedicated to David, but he has no appearances)
Thomas Ligotti (long narrative tracks with minimal vocals)

These are the tracks I don't currently have:
Aethenor - Faking gold and murder
Ardecore - La Povera Cecilia?
Whitehouse - Thank your lucky stars
The Hafler Trio – One Dozen Ecomomical Stories By Peter Greenaway
Costin Chioreanu - Chapter IV - Soundtrack For "Outside The Great Circle" Art Movie 2013
Larsen And Friends – ABECEDA
Mombus - & Bacillus Orchestra - Amber Cat
