I've been 'feeling' this, and the whole album it's on, since I was a teen.
I got a crazy idea though when I first started listening to Chelsea Wolfe a bit, that I'd love to hear her make a doom / industrial rework or VIP of it, ie. keeping the soul and core ethos of the track but just translating it out of drum n bass and into doom metal. Caveats - it'll probably never happen, it's also politically odd/tricky because Kemistry was something like a soulmate to Goldie and she also died young, freak vehicular accident on an express way (I doubt Goldie would hate it but - he'd probably be a bit confused, it would be like someone reworking 'I'll Be Missing You' by Puff Daddy and Mary J Blige). Why I'd push past all that - I really think this sonic landscape, and vocal style, would mesh with what Chelsea does really well, and maybe what I really like about it - I think her work would be near perfect if it had a bit more omniscience injected in, which this tune has in spades.
Still, it's something where if the music creation AI's get good enough I'd probably ask one to translate it into Chelsea Wolfe style doom metal just to see what happens. I'd sort of anticipate Chyna-ish results if it's done right.
