How I would have loved to have been in the room when the big wigs were selecting the folks that were going to get their hand on one of the 16 tracks that make up, 'The Cure - Mixes Of The Lost World' but if you're on this site, you'll be most interested in Colleen 'Cosmo' Murphy in her 'Cosmodelica' remix guise and the track 'And Nothing Is Forever'.
The Cosmodelica Electric Eden remix (being Cosmo, Joe Goddard and Al Doyle) predictably takes a Robert Smith/The Cure morose ballad into a dancefloor favourite that boarders on disco a la The Rapture in Ibiza.
Murphy being known as the bearing of torch of David Mancuso's Loft Party, host of the Balearic Breakfast radio show plus the 'Classic Album Sunday' show on Worldwide FM, DJing with Dom Servini (Wah Wah 45s) in Ibiza a couple of weeks ago at the Cafe del Mar and having breakfast with Joe Goddard (Ed. What a life!)
Not only that, she was very charming when I met her in the Jazzdance tent at WOH Festival last year so I'm more than happy to fall in love with The Cure again, did I ever tell it was because of the The Cure I ended up living on the the same road as Small Wonder Records (the label for thier first single (Ed. Another day).
Out on a double album of 16 tracks, there's so much more to The Cure and their remixer fans to check out and we'll be hearing more from the Cosmodelica Electric Eden 'supergroup' with Joe Goddard and Alexis Taylor (Hot Chip), Al Doyle (LCD Soundsystem) and Lou Haytor
