This played on http://somafm.com just now, on the Space Station Soma stream, and I've never heard it before, and I can't find it anywhere to download/buy, anyone have any idea?

ps - I've emailed the DJ begging him for info hope that works. But if anyone else has luck searching etc pls do let me know I will love you forever! Funny thing is we were just having a big debate about how no one is re-mixing anymore etc and then I suddenly find this tonight!
I NEED IT SO BAD!

I honestly don't know if this helps but if you goto http://www.dreamspy.com it redirects you to http://www.machinelove.com/ and it seems their record label is called Dream Spy Records.

I don't have the time to go through all the tracks but from what it says on the site and their sound these might be the droids you are looking for?

don't know - might be worth a punt to listen to all their tracks in case they simply didn't label it right on somafm.com - your choice :)

Actually I am glad I found their site as some of the tracks the are simply outstanding even though they don't seem to be the Spy Vs. Spy remix you are looking for :( Maybe email tham and ask if they ever did one?

That's not it :(

And, as yet no reply from the record label we thought it MIGHT be from, or the DJ who DJ'ed it in the internet radio stream :-(

This is mad, I find a really good Spy vs Spy remix that no one on THE remix forum has heard of hehe
WHY ME!!!!!! bloody typical really isn't it hehe story of my life!

Anyway, updates =

The DJ from SomaFM replied to my email and basically said he has no idea or any info about that tune, obviously he HAS the tune but it's against their policy to send me the tune itself grrr, so all he could do was tell me the name of it, which ofc I already had.

Now, I have found but ONE instance of the name 'dreamspy' on the internet, and it is from an album (now out of print) called 'Ambient.01@hyperreal'.

See here at track 2.01: http://www.discogs.com/Various-Ambient0 ... lease/5980

Long shot but anyone have that album can listen to that track and tell me if it's the tune in question, ie this tune: http://screencast.com/t/J2GJ5cTu

I completely agree with you and this remix is the true meaning of the word ambient!

It always amazes me how musicians can take something like Spy Vs Spy which is actually only really an 8-Bar (10s) piece of music and turn it into such an interesting six minutes worth of music! I bet you Nick Scarim would have ever imagined that something like this would ever come out of his original tune!

This kind of reminds me of Feekzoid's - Something Stranger which was of course based around the 30 second countdown blips in Microprose Soccer by Martin "God" Galway but somehow Feekzoid turned it into a monster 10 minute long epic! All from 30 seconds worth of blips in the key of "G" (Galway's favourite key I believe!).

One day I will do such a thing and there is plenty of material out their in HVSC actually to base these kind of tracks on.
