Mellotron Classics : Space Oddity on iPhone
So, how come it took us 5 months to do the obvious? The 40th anniversary re-release of Space Oddity last Summer came with 8 original stems to allow fan remixes. Well, we're as big as they come in terms of being Bowie and Space Oddity fans - after all it's a one song Mellofest - so we took up the remix challenge, removed the Mellotron and Stylophone, and inserted Ellatron. She sits beautifully in the mix, even if I say so myself.
An even more thrilling version of this is on our YouTube site - www.youtube.com/watch?v=CP-9pH1V_nw - featuring the masterful 2-octave run on the Stellaphone. Or, to more accurate, a finger being dragged up 2 octaves and skillfully landing on the right note at the end. Extraordinary musicianship, that man!
