In 1990, DJ Andrew Weatherall remixed Primal Scream’s “I’m Losing More Than I’ll Ever Have” as “Loaded,” a complete overhaul bearing almost no resemblance to the original. While it now sounds a bit dated, it remains a well-produced, relevant piece of rock history whose energy transcends any stylistic setbacks. Unlike that era’s other UK “guitar bands” making dance music, Primal Scream was a Rolling Stones-esque rock band that-with the help of producers including Andrew Weatherall, The Orb, Terry Farley, and Hypnotone as well as singer Denise Johnson-drew from acid house in a seamless transition towards the current time. Primal Scream’s Screamadelica, released in September 1991, captured late 80s/early 90s UK rave culture’s peak.
