It's nearly impossible to pick a favorite Francois K. mix, but I have to say that his rework of Moloko's "Forever More" is easily towards the top of my own list. The source material helps; Roisin Murphy's untouchable vocals are placed front and center in a lush and breezy backdrop by Mr. K and some additional keyboard flares from another studio veteran; Eric Kupper. In a word, this is flawless pop music for the dancefloor.
I've posted the 7 minute version of the track, but the 12"es that host this tune (there are a few) have a 10 minute version that extends the intro and some of the breaks halfway through. Vinyl hounds be forewarned: it took me months to track this record down. I can't say why for sure, but I finally nabbed it from a dealer on Gemm.com. Right place, right time I guess.

This is pretty great. I always liked Roisin as a vocalist, she's so soulful without being cheesy or overpowering everything else going on in a track. I never heard this before though, thanks for posting it!
There's a cd comp that has the long version - 10 Days Off Soundtrack. It's excellent!
The 10 min version is just pure joy! Quite a few Moloko traks have amazing remixes as well as solo Roisin Murphy songs.
