My own version of an edit of this mix, as opposed to the US promo version... which is on probably the single most rare Erasure promo CD, period. Very few people have actually seen a copy. I'm not too fond of this track... (clarification: I hate the song, but love this mix... it's one of my most favourites.) Fortunately, I could appreciate the remixes more than the original version of Love to Hate You. I later came across an mp3 of the actual Promo Edit, and was surprised how different the arrangements were... though both edits were the same time length. Of course, needless to say, I prefer my version... :-)

Howdy..

I remixed the original, and only a few people have heard it the way I really mixed it. The best mix by far was the dub, which times out at 18:36, but exists only on DAT. The 12" was massively edited by Mute records, so the final edit (even on the promo) is nothing like my much longer (12:45) mix, which had three separate flute solos and some insane bass edits. Common stuff now, but wildly excessive in 1991.

It is one of the favorite mixes I ever did though. Vince Clarke loved it, Andy Bell hated it, and it was finally Boy George who got Mute to release it, which I'll always appreciate.

I also did a very rare mix of Erasure's "Senseless" but "Love to Hate You" was something special.

The Senseless: Avalon Mix is another one of those mixes which I love even though it's a song I didn't care much for. Kudos... Great job, Bruce.
