Francisnotdead, thank you for posting. However, what you posted is the SHAGSONIC remix, which has been available since 1997. There is another unreleased Fatboy Slim remix of Elegantly Wasted in which he sampled Sympathy For The Devil by The Rolling Stones. I got my hopes up thinking that was the remix that you had. Does anyone have this unreleased remix that I’m referring to ? :beg:

Well i can only trust my source Filter (see the link to the blog..) and confirmation by Simon Thornthon himself

I just realised that imeem.com was …dead (bought by myspace lol) so i can listen the file i sent in 2007…. so its possibly a mistake of backup… :blackeye:.. no idea :banghead:

Trying to revive this topic to make a little investigation about this remix.

The track posted by FND, marked as ‘Fatboy Slim Remix’ is definitely remix by Shagsonic, as mudfoot said.
The remix was officially released on cd http://www.discogs.com/INXS-Elegantly-Wasted/release/629852
and vinyl http://www.discogs.com/INXS-Elegantly-Wasted/release/164427

INXS – Elegantly Wasted (Shagsonic Remix) – 320kbps version

While listening to it you can think that it very familiar with these sound that mr Norman Cook did about that time (1997). Same beats, same samples etc. Anyway, this is remix by Shagsonic.
But who is the Shagsonic ? Let’s see his discogs page http://www.discogs.com/artist/Shagsonic
All we can see is only 4 tracks remixed by him:

Alisha’s Attic – Indestructible (Shagsonic Remix)
Alisha’s Attic – Intense (Shagsonic Remix)
Alisha’s Attic – White Room (Shagsonic Remix)
INXS – Elegantly Wasted (Shagsonic Remix)
No real name, no aliases of artist. Nothing.

Then, let’s see vinyl release of INXS – Elegantly Wasted http://www.discogs.com/INXS-Elegantly-Wasted/release/164427
There are 3 versions of mix by Shagsonic:

A 		Elegantly Wasted (Shagsonic Dub) 	8:25

B1 		Elegantly Wasted (Shagsonic Remix) 	7:56

B2 		Elegantly Wasted (Shagsonic Bonus Beats) 	4:43

Wait a minute! ‘Bonus Beats’ ? I’ve seen it somewhere already.
Maybe at these tracks mixed by Norman Cook ?

Roe – Soledad (Norman Cook Bonus Beats)

Fidelfatti And Ronnette – Just Wanna Touch Me (Bonus Beats)

Ruthless Rap Assassins – Just Mellow (Bonus Beats)

Wildski – Wonderful World (Bonus Beats)

Keith Sweat – Make You Sweat (Bonus Beats)

Norman Cook – Blame It On The Bonus Beats

Kym Mazelle – Useless (Revenge Bonus Beats)

Beats International - Won't Talk About It (Bonus Beats)

Real Sounds Of Africa - Na Alla Violenza (Bonus International Beats)

Vanessa Williams – The Right Stuff (Bonus Beats)

Real Roxanne – Roxanne's On A Roll (Bonus Beats)

Professor Griff And The Last Asiatic Disciples – The Verdict (Bonus Beats)

David Grant Featuring Original Double Trouble – Life (Bonus Beats)

Jess And Crabbe – The Big Booya (Bonus Beats)

Fatboy Slim - Weekend Bonus Beats

Stretch & Vern – Get Up! Go Insane! (Bonus Acid Beat)

Duke - So In Love With You (Bonus Beats)

Definitely Norman Cook’s style of mixes naming.

So
Maybe
Shagsonic
Is
Another
Alias
Of
Norman Cook ?

What do you think ? =)

Hi Guys! i found this:

“Elegantly Wasted” and Fatboy Slim
One of the rarest INXS mixes in existence is a remix of “Elegantly Wasted” created by Norman Cook (aka Fatboy Slim) in 1997. Cook’s assistant engineer, Simon Thornton, recently offered this comment about the remix on a Fatboy Slim email discussion list: “Only two people in the world have this mix. Norman and me. The definitive answer is: YES, we did this, but no, I doubt it’ll ever come out. I doubt anyone that says they’ve heard it (apart from me and Norman, obviously) actually has. Sorry! Simon.” (thanks to rich davis)
