I actually feel quite awkward because it isn’t my work. I did one remix myself, ’You’ve Been Flirting Again’, and obviously me and Evelyn Glennie, that was just us.

She lives in Oxford and I just went to her house and we ate a lot of biscuits and drank a lot of tea and she took out exhaust pipes and we just made up that song and recorded it in ten minutes.

I find the remix album a real turn on. And I think remixes aren’t respected enough. They’re like the record company trying to get money or trying to get the song played on the radio or in clubs. Whereas most of my remixes make sure they’re not ! So remixes - I’ve even funny feelings about the word -it’s like recycled or something... I don’t know what I’d prefer. ’Alternative version’ or ’interpretation’ is a bit snobby...
