Pheromone [remix - is it real or fanmade?]



i think i've asked this before, a long time ago, but i'm still unsure so if i asked before,
i didn't get an answer either way.

so, i have this 'remix' of pheromone, that starts out with what sounds like a fog horn
with a bit of reverb and then a pretty heavy beat drops in.

there is also some other effects and musical breaks in this, including drum patterns
not in the original version or the intrumental one.

the 'original' music is so muted and pushed down in the mix in places that i'm not at
all sure if this is something that's possible with just a home studio to do for fanmade
mixing. but i could be wrong. it could be something super simple lol

i can't link to it since i can't find it anywhere online. i don't know how i got it but i've
had it for probably 20 years and never seen it pop up anywhere else

there's no mention of it on princevault either.

but the thing is, eventho it's pretty redically tweaked, it doesn't sound like a right
out fake to me. it sounds like something prince would have either done himself at
that time or had someone else do.

it clocks in at 5:18 and only the very end of it sounds a bit dubious to me.

anyone?

There are two Versace mix tapes. The one is Versace Experience, the other is Versace and Other Experiences. The latter is where your version of "Pheromone" (called Version 2) comes from. It's 5:14, and follows a mix of "Pussy Control".

Intro - Pussy Control

Pheromone Version 2

Sonny T. - Rootie Kazootie

However Much U Want

Chauntounette Controlle

Loose

Race

Letitgo

Interactive Version 3

Walk Don't Walk

The Sacrifice of Victor

Controversy

The What's My Name Experience (my mp3 lists it as Wat's)

PUssy Control

Hit U In The Socket

M.P.L.S.


And there's the Versace And Other Experiences:
Tracks from "The Versace Experience" (tracks 1, 5 & 14)
DJ remixes (tracks 2, & 6 - 13)
Studio outtakes (tracks 3, 4, 15 & 16)

Thread here about both Versace tapes. However, that thread says the latter that I noted is a bootleg and not official. Princevault only lists The Versace Experience (Prelude 2 Gold) as official.

Now I need to go on a hunt to find it smile Just started a post about Glam Slam Ulysses as I'm on a real '93-94 kick at the moment.

How these various Versace Experiences from that era have passed me by I do not know.

Just wondering if all the remixes on 'Versace and Other Experiences' are genuine or fan made? Was there any confirmation that the contents of this second compilation are official?

If y'all read what I posted, as well as the link to another thread about this topic, it says that V&OE is a bootleg, not the real deal. It's an interesting mix, but obvi some of those songs are from the aborted Madhouse project etc.
