the French Touch Forum did an intrerview of Shinichi Osawa. I proposed a question that was asked :

Q : Was doing a cover of Star Guitar an easy thing ? Did you receive a feedback of The Chemical Brothers ?

A : "Star Guitar" was one of my favourite tracks.I thought it would be cool to do a cover of this music, but more "rock" sounding. I didn't expect people to talk about it so much. I didn't get any feedback from them but I had no particular difficulty during the process (?).

Nice!

Thanks for the translation, Ben_J. :)

Is there word on what the Brothers thought about the remix elsewhere? it's a bloody good one. Also, I have always had trouble trying to pronounce their name.

I love Patrick Alavi remixes, here's one of Shinichi Osawa's Star Guitar cover http://palmsout.net/...%20reroX%29.mp3 (high quality .mp3) I'm not loving it myself...but make up your own minds.

You should hear his remixes of Smells Like Teen Spirit and Sexyback by JT, they're quality!
