Notes

Remix compilation (except track A4).
Track A3 is identical to the 'Further Over The Edge Mix' of 'Enjoy' that appears on the CD edition of this album, but with the vocal fragments of 'Enjoy' replaced by those of 'Hyperballad'. The credits on the A label - the only place the tracklist appears - are those of 'Enjoy', however.

Review by Ramzy Apr 17, 2008
This LP is intriguing, as track A3 seems to be identical to the 'Enjoy (Further Over the Edge Mix)' that appears on the CD edition of the album, apart from its containing vocal fragments from 'Hyperballad' instead of 'Enjoy'. There was an 'Over the Edge Mix' of 'Hyperballad' that was featured on 'It's Oh So Quiet' CD1, but this is clearly not the same mix.

Also, the way the vinyl is pressed is FINE. Pressing it loud enough to fill two (or, ridiculously, three) vinyls would have led to lots of distortion, as on the practically unlistenable vinyl pressing of Vespertine. If it's too quiet, turn the bloody thing up. You'll notice that the louder tracks are cut in more space anyway: on visual inspection, A3 appears to be about twice the length of A2.

This is one of the best remix albums ever. Bjork's music is a muse for so many musicians. Her voice, words, and passion make people push their musical abilities to the next level. To explore the boundaries they might not have traveled too without her motivation. My only complaint about this release is that the pressing is very low and I wish it was a 2 or 3 LP instead of just 1.
