Steve Hogarth + Richard Barbieri - Arc Light - (From Arc Light)

The first remix for 'Index' was done by Pat Mastelotto of King Crimson - Pat is the drummer on the original studio version and did a beautiful job, exactly what I wanted, but in his words…

"I saw a YouTube clip of one of your early shows and Marco was drumming up a storm and I thought damn that's what I wanted to do!  But as a session man on the original track it felt self indulgent for me to send you back a brilliant song with a 'drummer goes nuts' treatment when the song clearly stands on its own as chords and a great story it didn't need it.  But it was always in my head it could be Dave Grohl does Mike Giles over the bar line never stop drumming ... I had the multi tracks so said what the hell let the horses run and see what I can do….”
