Texas - Say What You Want (Andy Votel Mix 2007)


Andy Votel said this... "Exactly 25 years ago (when I was 20) I did a remix for the band Texas whose “Say What You Want” track was yet to be released. After the record had been cut I made the grave mistake of telling the record label that I had used samples from records by Elephants Memory, Dave Grusin, Don Ellis, Kraftwerk (1st LP), Fear Itself, Arc 2 and the unreleased soundtrack to Valerie And Her Week Of Wonders (off video tape) and needless to say, they panicked and shelved the whole project. Bizarrely the label even paid me to design and manufacture an obi-strip (based on Argento’s Deep Red) and it got a really nice review in The Face which lead to plenty of remix requests throughout the following years… even though very few people really got to hear the very limited white-label. A few years later (after the original song became a global hit) they re-did the song with Wu Tang Clan, sampling Leicester's very-own Engelbert Humperdinck. Original copies of my version are scarce but inexpensive, I’d love to find a copy with the artwork one day."
