Nite Versions is the first remix album by Soulwax, released on 26 September 2005 through PIAS. The album comprises remixes of songs from their third studio album, Any Minute Now.
History
The remix album's name is a nod to the "Night Versions" of Duran Duran's songs, which were extended dance remixes intended for nightclub play.
The album opens with Soulwax's own take on Daft Punk's 1997 song "Teachers"; a hidden track is also present before the start of track 1. The 51-second instrumental is untitled but is an alternate version of the guitar riff from the original version of E Talking. Trevor Jackson produced the album artwork.
In 2012, Nite Versions was awarded a double silver certification from the Independent Music Companies Association, which indicated sales of at least 40,000 copies throughout Europe. "Another Excuse" and "Compute" are featured in Test Drive Unlimited.
In 2020, the album was re-released for its 15th anniversary. The re-release included a special repressing on pink and white vinyl and a rework of "NY Lipps" with a spoken-word performance by LCD Soundsystem's Nancy Whang.
