"The Tom Rowland Remix of 'Tutti-Frutti' is a worthy take-two though."

More New Order More New Order

Six months after releasing Music Complete, one must ask: was (feuding founding bassist) Peter Hook's absence noted? Hell yes!

Missed? Not really. He would have been lost on the likes of Singularity, whose furious intensity hadn't been unleashed since Crystal. To properly succumb to its welly, best stick with the Extended Nix. Or if you want to go all 'ravey-Davey', finger-pointing like an epileptic traffic cop, the JS Zeiter Dub will do the job, but nine mixes is just Blue Monday '95-level overkill. The Tom Rowland Remix of Tutti-Frutti is a worthy take-two though.
