Imperial March cover/remix

Daveyboy · 4 Jun 2007 at 20:36

Last tuesday night on Radio 1 (I think) they were playing quite a few famous songs performed by different artists in their own particular style.

Did anyone hear it?

One of them was the Imperial March (Darth Vader etc for all those who have lived in caves)

Does anyone know who performed it?

Before that someone else did a sort of acapella version of stairway to heaven that I caught the end of which was also pretty good

If you remember what show it is, then you can get a tracklisting from thier site. Sounds like something Colin Murray would play.

I've got a couple of remixes, will search the pc....

Hmmm unfortunately only one has an artist, "JD99 shortcut mix - Imperial March".

Tryed googling it but only one result came back (OMG GOOGLEWHACK....ish).

But yeah I'd love to know, I remember one of the older star wars pc games had a rocked up version of it. Sounded pretty cool

Metallica - 'Imperial March'
Rage Against the Machine - 'Imperial March'

I had a quick listen, the RATM version is awesome.

What style of music was it? I've got some Star Wars remix trance track by Paul Oakenfold here thats pretty good and I'm sure one of my old JDJ cds also had an Imperial march dance track on it.

EDIT : Nevermind

That was hilarious. Especially when he did the medley at the end.

Well this is apparently the RATM one, although I remember this from the game, I think it was called imperial commander/battlegrounds or something like that.
