This is an outstanding album. These remixes are all very creative without being heavy-handed, to the end that if one were unfamiliar with the originals, one might not realize that they are, in fact, remixes. However, there is such an added flavor to these tracks that the originals, in comparison, may seem somewhat flat, and that's even considering that the originals are very good songs already.
I would say that if you like indie dance/pop along the lines of Saint Etienne as well as laid back jazzy samba, you'll find the sum to be greater than the parts.
