Klein & MBO* - 25th Anniversary - 05-Feb-08 12:16 PM
Beware of this release.
Yes it's by Klein & MBO.
Yes it comes with a sticker claiming it contains the hit single "Dirty Talk" ... but this package doesn't include any of the glorious original versions. In stead of those you'll have to endure very 2007 so-called electro house remakes of the italo classic. Think David Guetta vs. Tocadisco or the remakes of Freaks' "The Creeps" - this is the crap you've just bought.
Oh and the last track is a laughably poor downtempo piece of adult oriented eurodance crap.
All in all, the aural equivalent of a trip down Ventimiglia market. Leaves you feeling both embarrassed and angry to have fallen for such an obvious con.

Tweet / A Tribe Called Quest - Boogie 2Nite / I C U (Doin' It) (Edits By Mr. K) - 29-Sep-07 02:04 PM
Forget about the garage house remixes and the rather cheap cover by the even cheaper Booty Luv, this is the version of Tweet's Boogie Tonight you've been looking for - It's damp - It's moist - It's incorporating elements from Christopher Just's I'm A Disco Dancer (And A Sweet Romancer) - It's pure sex basically - Makes you wanna bump & grind senselessly with love-handled mature men - Just make sure that phial of jungle juice is not too far from your nostrils and enjoy.

Freaks - The Creeps (Get On The Dancefloor) - 31-Aug-07 09:53 AM
This truly is an atrocious re-make, using each and everyone of the summer of 2007 Ibiffa's production clichés. To its credit it does makes the average output of Eric Prydz and Fedde LeGrande sound like inspired, cutting edge dance music.
How Solomon and Harris green lighted this to be released under the Freaks name is quite mind boggling, really.

Tiefschwarz - Eat Books - 07-Sep-05 03:57 AM
This album was a major disappointment; achieving the quite paradoxical feat of sounding formulaic and mismatched at the same time. Some of the lyrics are really dire (try Troubled Man) and vocals uninspired (Tracey Thorn doing her usual rent-a-miserable-mood number).
Only highlights are the last two tracks, Benedict, as it recycles the best elements of one of Tiefschwarz trademark remix (Kelis Trick Me) and Issst, that eventually sound as a second thought to this over-all below par collection.

I guess that's what's likely to happen when talented producers spend too much time remixing everybody and their mother too when preparing their own second album.

Replicant - Face Control E.P. - 26-Aug-05 02:11 PM
One of the very rare cases of a cover version being way better than the original. Marc's delivery is so way over the top that it makes lines like "I live among the creatures of the night" (or something like that) sound like life-afirming statements. This, along with Punx Soundcheck's version of Visage's Damned Don't Cry, makes up for a truckload of unecessary so-called electroclash 80's cover versions: it's neither lazy nor easy, just plain genius.
