Copycat has been a fan of Yazoo ever since the duo's beginnings and jumped at the chance to be remix one of their tracks. "Back in the days, when Vince Clarke decided to jump the Depeche Mode
ship and head for poppier pastures, I was convinced my infatuation with
the band was over," Copycat writes me. "But a couple of singles later on, Martin Gore penned 'See You,' and I let out a sigh as long as a monster truck tire losing
its air. What's more, Vince went on to form the marvelous duo Yazoo, comprising everything I loved about DM, plus a little bit of soul on top, courtesy of Alison Moyet's wonderful bluesy voice.

"When I was invited to join this project, I knew exactly what to remix: 'Nobody's Diary,' the prelude to Yazoo's
second album 'You And Me Both.' When it was released originally, the
12" was just another boring extended job with no added value
whatsoever. I always missed a proper remix of the song - a dance remix,
to be precise. Well, here's my shot at it."

"I kinda had a vision of Yazoo
hooking up with the Pet Shop Boys and the Latin Rascals at an Electro
House party hosted by the Swedish House Mafia. The result? Not even
close. But hopefully quite fun anyway."

It is quite fun indeed. In fact, it is very good and it deserves a formal release.
