Andrew Weatherall - Remixes 1989 - 1991 - Rest In Peace!

Sad news: The British DJ, musician and producer Andrew Weatherall has died two days ago at the age of 56. Weatherall was best known for his album production, in particular Primal Scream’s 1991 record Screamadelica, which won the inaugural Mercury Music Prize the following year.

He was a key figure in counter-cultural music throughout the 1980s, and was instrumental in bringing the genre of “acid house” into the mainstream.

His work was featured on remixes to a number of hit songs, including Hallelujah (1989) by the Happy Mondays, and World in Motion (1990) by New Order.

Andrew James Weatherall (6 April 1963 –17 February 2020) was a British musician, DJ, songwriter, producer and remixer. His career took him from being one of the key DJs in the acid house movement of the late 1980s to being a remixer of tracks by the likes of Happy Mondays, New Order, Björk, The Orb, The Future Sound of London and My Bloody Valentine. His production work on Primal Scream's album "Screamadelica", adding samples, loops and creating a revolutionary mix of hard rock, house and rave, helped the record win the first ever Mercury Music Prize in 1992 and become one of the most celebrated albums of the 1990s.

Weatherall died on 17 February 2020 at Whipps Cross University Hospital in London, at age 56. The cause was given as a pulmonary embolism.
