P5 Remixes (was Re: (idm) Black Dog Incarnations/P5)

I can give a micro-capsule review as I bought the John Oswald/Oval remix P5
12" this week. The John Oswald piece consists of a live jazz drummer
spazzing out over P5 loops (can't remember the name of the cut). I was
expecting Plunderphonics so the free jazz thing was a nice surprise. The
Oval remix begins with floating ambient noises and eventually morphs into a
melodic but distorted sound loop. I doubt that the other remixes are this
exploratory.
