Reviews & Discussion

Review by mjago85 Sep 29, 2006 (edited over 3 years ago)
This album's importance in electronic music history may have only become apparent recently, nearly 10 years after its release, for it can be readily observed how commonly at least some aspect of the style portrayed here has been knocked off by other artists to freshen their own productions. Quite strange, considering it is an album that basically explores the past, ranging from disco ("Fresh", "Indo Silver Club") to Kraftwerk-esque minimalism ("Daftendirekt", "Da Funk", "Around The World", "Alive"). Combining an element of a more modern outlook on club sounds ("Revolution 909") and that something that makes it all Daft Punk ("Rollin' & Scratching", "Rock N Roll"), you have yourself quite a unique album and one whose importance should never be underestimated.
Review by V-Agent Aug 04, 2003
On initial listening, this album may come accross as not much, untill you realise that you've been listening to it constantly for a while, and it hasn't gotten boring...

The successful nature of this Album becomes apparent when you realise that it is the sheer subtlety of production on these tracks that lifts it above the rest.
This album contains some of the most sublime basslines committed onto a release.

Every track has it's place on this Album and is paced to give an excellent listening experience throughout the entire LP, every track is there for a reason and they lead into each other very well.

Well written, well compiled.
A classic study in compiling a coherent album - from start to finish.

Top shelf - All killer, no filler.
