ADAGIO
FOR STRINGS remix. Original
works by
the American composer Samuel
Barber. This is his best
known composition because of its use in a number
of films, most notably in Oliver
Stone's 1986 academy
award winning, Platoon. Now popular
after being remixed
by William
Orbit, and it made it on the club scene when
the remix was remixed by Ferry
Corsten. Sadly Mr Barber died in 1981, aged 71 years,
never having the experience of being packed into a warehouse
with 900 others, jumping up and down
to his music, without a shirt on. I think he would
have enjoyed it. I'm sure he would have been very proud.
