1983 US 12" X Visitors: The Planet Doesn't Mind

    The Planet Doesn't Mind (Vocal) 3.59 / The Planet Doesn't Mind (Instrumental) 4.48 //
    The Planet Doesn't Mind (Club Remix) 7.30 (US 12": Dancing Bear Records DB 0001)
Produced by Diane Dragon for Sutra Records New York City. A member, Chris Arevalo, emailed me March 16th 2000: "my name is Chris Arevalo. during 1982, i was playing in a top 40 band called ROJAS in san jose, california. i also worked in a record store called star records which was owned by diane dragone. during that time, the hottest song in that area was the remix of planet doesnt mind. we would order around 20 copies and it would be gone within the hour. it became hard to find a copy. diane dragone presented the song to my band, and at first the band was skeptical about redoing the song, but i convinced them to re record it. we recorded it in a 24 track studio in san jose. i played 75% of the recording. i paid a programmer to create most of the sounds on my keyboards. some of the sounds we couldn't create so we used tuned glasses of water to create the beginning sounds. that was really fun (yeah right!) even though diane dragone named the project x-visitors, we still used the rojas name when we played the song live. our version did very well in major cities, and was one of most requested songs on KMEL in san francisco, became a minor dance hit. one more thing, people are willing to pay up to 50 dollars for a copy of both the new musik or the x-visitors version. every so often, a dj would add it to their mix. i didnt get paid much of doing the keyboard work, but during that time the band i was with was getting popular for recording it. oh by the way, the lead singer who sang is named david taylor. we tried to make him sound english. the sessions were really funny in some ways. one more note....after we couldn't get anymore import copies. the store started making lists of customers who wanted the remix. i believe we had thousands of customers on sheets of paper. when the x-visitors version came out, only Star Records ( the store i worked at) had the copies. I only wish to thank Tony Mansfield for writing "The Planet" His album "Warp" inspired me greatly, and his production was awesome.
