Matrix Mix 28 - The Rites Of Matrix (42:32, 40Mb)

This one is The KLF's excellent "Rites Of Mu" with several tracks inserted inside it.
I found this mix extremely difficult to put together - it took a very long time to find the right tracks. I'm still not sure I got it exactly right. Apologies for the quality of the MP3 in the last couple of minutes, but I've never been able to find a cleaner copy of The Rites Of Mu. It's very hard to track down.

Just when i thought it was safe to stop downloading, along comes another irresistible Matrix mix.........

Love it! It's about time the Rites of Mu got extended and this does a grand job of it. Wonderful track selection throughout and the use of TV's all time greatest theme trune is inspired.

From a fan of the JAMMs , great job! Next stop - remix 1987. Remember the album came out as an edited version with instructions on the back on how to recreate 1987?
KLF are undervalued, and it's great to see them handled with such respect. Great job!

Amazing!
Simply and masterfully amazing!

Wow...this comes across as an unique labour of love. Will be downloading...thanks for another great mix!

love it :D

viva!! la klf

Splifftastic!! Well done..

Thanks everyone. A lot of effort went into this one...so it's nice to hear that it's going down well.

:D

Fantastic updating of the original, excellent down tempo atmospheric mix

One word....excellent!!!!

It's always so obvious when something has been done with love isn't it? And you can also tell when someone has been paying full attention to detail.

Brilliant. 100% keeper.

Really aweseome, and the Dr Who made it a keeper!!!!

Just loooooooooooooove it... Thanks Matrix

It took me some time to assimilate everything, I really love your selection of tracks, and like everyone already wrote, it's very well done. I will fit very well in my Iriver. Thx.

:D
I might carry on this hobby with feedback like this.
:D

This is a GREAT mix, my friend... Ths may sound like a stupid question...but who's voice that?? My wife and I disagree on who it is.. Love the mix ...Keep up the excelliant work.

martin sheen

It's clearly meant to be an Apocalypse Now Martin Sheen type trip, but I read somewhere else that it is someone pretending to be him. I don't know the answer.

Thanks for the comments. Next mixes are going in different directions (true to the spirit of b00mb0x) - funk then rock.

well after a bit of searchin' and stuff....
Michael Herr did the narration for apocalyse now and also provided the rite's of mu vox ;D

thanks to the lovely ppl on the klf forum

And thanks to you for checking it out....Peace

Just got round to listening to it... a really amazing mix I love this one. Thanks Matrix

Nice work man.
The jury is still out on who it is doing the voice.
Some people say it is actually Martin Sheen. Others say that it is one half of the KLF, Bill Drummond, pretending to be Sheen. Either is nice!

Thanks for the mix, I'm enjoying it right now.

Yours,
A KLF fan, johnl.

PS : I donated just to be able to download this!

Thanks guys :D
I'm still waiting for as good a 'lightbulb coming on' moment when you realise what you can base a mix around.

I've had this for a while, but this coming weekend we are having a spliff induced party in some woods. As it gets dark this is going on. I can't wait to take them off to the Ancient Land of Mu.......
Cheers

Hello again... still listening to this one months later. It's not getting old for me.
