Rodent (DDT mix) - New Collaboration from Ogre & hiwatt 

Love ya Ken, thanks for the shoutout brother! 🙏 And thank you for sharing those great memories of Saki! ❤🤘 What an awesome video! 🔥

This is one of my favourite remixes ever, and it absolutely would not have been possible without some brilliant friends, and colleagues 'stepping up to the mic' 🤟🏻🙏🏻 Rom Di Prisco was my ‘remix partner’ on this one, and it’s so very important to recognize everything he brought to this remix. Rom is one of the most talented electronic musicians I’ve ever had the privilege of collaborating with, and his contributions to this DDT mix are unmeasurable. He somehow figured out cEvin's EPIC bass line, and doubled it perfectly with 3, or 4 reinforcement layers…I think he had something like 20 different sequences, and parts for us to choose from for the final mix down! I’m really excited to share, and highlight Rom’s contribution to this track…because we couldn’t have done it without him…thanks Rom ☺🙏🏻 Saki Kaskas (R.I.P.;), was a dear friend, and THE best guitar player I’ve ever worked with!!! He would roll into the studio with a specially designed Marshall JCM900, and we would take the post-tube, direct out into an API 512c, or Neve 1073. He would always turn the input to MAX on the 900, I remember that sound (and smell) of tubes melting hahah!!! I have fond memories of this particular session with Saki, I recall him learning that same bass sequence, and the guitar solo, then doubling both perfectly, not once, but TWICE for that huge stereo rhythm/solo guitar thing 😆🤟🏻 I know we all miss Saki, he was a special soul…not to mention he was like one of the most handsome dudes ever, that literally mastered his craft like no other. We love you Saki ❤🙏🏻 Serena Whitters literally stepped up to the mic, and in the 11th hour no less!!! We knew it was sort of a big deal for anyone to sing in support of someone so legendary…Serena wasn’t slightly intimidated haha, she just asked what we needed, and where to be…what a PRO 🙏🏻 I particularly like the ‘add lib’ stuff she did during the outro, the kind of vocalizations we often hear in today’s productions…that made Serena approx 30 years ahead of our time hahah, BOOM!!! I feel very privileged to be credited for this remix, but I think you can hear clearly, there’s a TEAM of incredible artists contributing to this one! Thank you Rom, Saki, and Serena 🙏🏻🤟🏻☺ ❤hiwatt

yes yes. now is the only thing that is real.

The first puppy song i ever heard. These guys are in there early 60s and making the best music around.

Ogre is doing the same routine I do in the mirror after I brush my teeth.

It's like adding sprinkles to an already delicious cake! Great job, to all involved! Really enjoyed the experience.

Can't get enough of this funky industrial shit!!!! More more more collaborations more remixes....❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

Been loving this since it's original release! On regular rotation in my Subaru. I really wish that the American Memory Project would have finished the full-length that was hinted at during their show in Seattle with Ohgr. Ogre was himself was going to be doing some vocals! William please!!!!!!!!!

Fantastic! One of my favorite tracks. So many people hated on Rabies, due to "outside influences", lol. It was my entry into the world of Skinny Puppy, and has the dearest place in my heart.

This was mentioned by SP new guitarist in an interview.

Starting to feel the DDT in my veins...

fuck yea🤘 i still use this as my wake-up alarm

This mix is so badass... I must have played it a thousand times at parties back in the day and 50,000 since. Cheers bros!

Skinny Puppy "Rodent" Lyrics: Level edge backs against the ledge no knives the stone hard eyes Without the longing or fear that it would disappear they cling on nuturing Never ending obsessions on the table lines needed walls cover tips the balance Don't touch me wiped out cornering mouthed the word money head Shake handshake out to get a long way from corrosion pushes closer To the edge wired not connected peeling back plastic wrap tinted green And all illusion existing caught up crossfire trading tall tales where Are you going where do you fail what's that mean back and forth side By side loose knot weave keep it up altogether or whatever that means passing Underneath the trespass don't get to close mouth the word your money if I Fade I may and I want to fade away all that I do is pray that you will be There too if this were trying to deceive some minds what the hell Do you got to say? altogether

PLEASE! PLEASE! PULL LEVER!

That guitar is dialed in!!!!!!!!

Ken, I just discovered you recently. I'm now 55 and SP were one of my favourite bands. Thank you for all this. Brilliant.

The little snap when Ogre turns off the camera at end is a nice touch! All those little details!

lol trippy vid. Bad ass remix!

awesome new version and video of one of my favorite Skinny Puppy songs. I noticed the clip in the start of the white truck with surrounding officers is from an INSANE chase and pursuit that spanned I believe 2 hours if I recall correctly, hopping from stolen vehicle to stolen vehicle. Really crazy; that's besides the point but just thought it was interesting to point out this is a wicked video and mix of Rodent!

Need new ohGr... Tricks was so good

Such a killer mix. I've listened to Remix DysTemper so many times I hear the Opium mix of Addiction playing in my head as soon as this song was done playing :-D

Alwazys the cure for my tinnitus! Thanks!

2024 is comming

Yes!

One of the best remixes ever made!❤

Aloha Ken, I really appreciate your time in sharing this stuff with us. Great sounds great.

Exceptional mix! Love it! 🤘🤘🤘 Rip to Saki! We all miss him... 😢

Hammer geil jo ❤❤❤

Love this version... it sounds so modern. The mix sounds so good on our studio setup :) This would be a great song to do a remix of.

The acid in this!!! In your face banger, making a 34 year old track (!!!) sounding like fresh off the mill. More please! Do a Selected Works album with the best SP tracks in remixes true to the original but delivering 2023 production and polish!Thaaaannnnnnkssssss!

That was fucking incredible

My favorite track off Remix Dystemper! This video is awesome too, great job!

Nice new visuals over my favorite remix from Remix Dystemper!

This wasn't on my 2023 bingo card but I'm so glad it is! This was my fave remix from that album, so glad it's finally got a video! Glad you're still collaborating, hope to see more from you and the pups in the future!

respect

You have no idea how that made me happy just now.

Wow

A really good collaboration!!!

This remix re-kindled my passion for Skinny Puppy when I discovered it a few years ago and it became my #1 played track on Spotify that year. Love it!

I like the credits at the end. Cherry on top to an awesome remix

Wow... so good... one of my favs from Rabies. You guys rock! TY for the tune!!!

Funky man, dystemper has some great remixes. 🤘 lots of distortion 😁

So good it hurts. Thank you!

Bam

Stupidly sick. Your understanding of sound is something else.

Fucking awesome! Rabies is one of my favourite albums.

Another glorious surprise for the Skinny Puppy collection! Thanks so much, Ken! There are so many SP recordings that I wish could be released once they've made a pass through your studio!

Thats a badass version, Saludos from Costa Rica

Awesome!!! Nice to see you working with ogre. Was really hoping you were going to be running sound on the first leg of the final tour. Would have loved to meet you! Nice job on the track, one of my favorite puppy songs ever!

this is just what i needed cant wait for next months gig!

EPIC! ABSOLUTELY EPIC!!! ;)

This was like an early Christmas present!!!!!! Please keep pulling these out and throwing a new twist to them. Perfect mix 10/10

My ears are happy! Thanks Mister!!!

Fantastic, as always. You guys are the GOATs.

The vocal treatment is amazing, is that really mostly just that one vintage preamp and an Eventide (and tons of talent)?

Sounds like a mix of the dystemper and wild planet version. Great stuff as always!...

Love it! One of my favorites with a modern touch...

PERFECTION!!!!

L🖤VE !!

Wow, I love Rabies so much. I have a very personal attachment to it. But this version is superior. Thank you Ken & Ogre✌️🇨🇦

an impressionable 12-13 year old around the release time of Remix Dys Temper, i remember the commercial featured your remix of Rodent. Instant purchase, and absolutely formative.

Yes.

This is freaking incredible Ken!!

fantastique.

Soooo crunchy

Dude!!!! This was insane! Such a great video ! Awesome job once again! So enjoyable! Hope to see more ! ✌️

K I L L A H!!!😍🤩😎

I had to wait an excruciating four days before I could listen to this mix, as I was away for the holidays and I didn't have my good headphones with me. I knew even before listening that this mix deserves better than laptop speakers. Great work. Thanks for making another wonder version of one of my favourite songs!

but.. today isn't my birthday!

So. Damn.Good...

Simply Awesome
