This month’s Patreon-supported bonus commentary podcast takes a trip to the frontier of 1996! Forma Tadre’s debut, “Navigator”, has remained a touchstone for the Senior Staff in terms of sound design, theme, and so much more. Bruce and Alex have loads to say about Lovecraft, Tangerine Dream, and Blade Runner samples, so join them on a journey through sea and space as the ins and outs of this impressionist electro-industrial masterpiece. If’n you want, you can also check out the interview with Andreas Meyer Bruce and Alex conducted back in 2007. As always, you can rate and subscribe on iTunes, Google Play Music and Stitcher, download directly, or stream from the widget down below.
We Have a Commentary: Forma Tadre, "Navigator"
Speaking of Looking Glass Men, even though it is not labelled as a remix there is a fantastic remix of it on We Came To Dance VIII.

I think I remember reading in an old interview it was remixed by XMTP but I am not 100% certain any more. In any case, it is so good it would be worth tracking down this compilation for it alone.
Oh shit! Thanks for the heads up
That sounds fantastic, usually discogs is pretty reliable with their remix credits… Excellent!
On a side note, volume 2 of the “Tyranny off the Beat” contains a version of Looking Glass Men (Original Mix) and another edit of FLA’s “Barcode,” just like that We Came To Dance comp. Were those songs contractually obligated to appear together in the mid-90s?
