The Future remix (and the Electric Chair remix, which is the b-side) was mixed
by Mark Moore and William Orbit. They also did the two remixes of Batdance
(The Batmix and The Vicki Vale Mix). All very good mixes imo.

Agreed. Great remixes.

The Batdance mixes each contain "new" Prince input though (i.e. Prince vocals and music samples not in the album version of Batdance), whereas the Future and Electric Chair remixes are straight mixes by outsiders without new Prince input, but are fantastic (which isn't something I usually think about remixes done by outsiders).

Worth getting, great mixes (especially The Future), but don't bid too much - it's not rare.

I like both mixes but I really like "Electric chair". I have it on CD and vinyl. Like Nouveaudance said, it's not rare.
Making love and music are the only things worth fighting for.

So 12.95 + 5.95 (shipping) is too much

Great remix single. It only came out in Europe if I'm not mistaken. Like the other orgers said, the Batman era had some stellar remixes.

Dollars? That's OK.
Pounds? A bit steep, but not breaking the bank I 'spose.

True...Prince did him first!

Madonna only used Willian Orbit 2 years later on the Erotica maxi-single!

William Orbit remixed "Justify my love" in 1990, the same year as "The future" remix.
