I have literally no idea. I hate talking about money.
Is "a lot" too vague?
just scream WONGA at him, snap a pencil in your clenched fist then storm out the office
Or say 2200 quid.

Nah. Original is too good to be turned into a hipster plinky plonky wankfest that that remix is.
Original is a club banger. James Blake's trademark boring synth sound playing some chords absolutely kills the fun of the track dead.
It's like if you took a hype grime tune and replaced the vocals with something from a Keane song.
Or let me guess you like Keane?
In that case. Ban

I haven't listened to the video in question but as a rule painfully ironic covers of joyously ignorant rap records can fuck right off.

You claimed the most iconic rap record of all time was PJ & Duncan's Let's Get Ready To Rumble.

It's not an ironic cover. It's just some weak drums, square waves playing chords and this really dumb sound cheesy lead over it with the A Milli vocal. Like "oooh let's get rid of the massive heavy bass and instead make it really cheesy and awkward". You couldn't miss the point of the tune more if you tried. The lead melody sounds like it's taking the piss for fuck's sake. Is it supposed to be a joke? I can't believe anyone could make such an awful remix on purpose

Actually I said it was slightly eclipsed by the legendary John Barnes rap of 1990

As if the guy who came up with "Let's Get Ready To Rumble!" has earned over $400m from it. Quality. I'm might trademark "Suck your mom" and see how far it gets me.

I like some James Blake stuff. Just not his remixes that basically all suck compared to the originals or his boring singing albums.
He has potential to make actually interesting music. I don't know why he throws it away on making such bland albums or "I'm going to miss the vibe of every tune" remixes.
