Saint Etienne has always been receptive to electronic music, and their openness has served them quite well. CASINO CLASSICS, a collection of remixes, shows how forward-thinking they’ve been since the beginning of their career. While several mixes (Secret Knowledge, David Holmes, Underworld) are aimed squarely for the progressive house dancefloor —- an indication more of when this album came out than of individual taste —- there are plenty of surprises. Though the first disc features mostly previously released mixes, there are still plenty of treasures. Dub fans can go to the Aloof’s mix of “Speedwell” or Andrew Weatherall’s epic mix of “Only Love Can Break Your Heart.” The Aphex Twin is also represented in all his clanging abstract glory with his landmark remix of “Who Do You Think You Are.” The second disc features mostly new mixes, and there are some doozies. The dancefloor breaks of Way Out West’s take on “Angel” shows them at their peak, while dirty funk erupts from Monkey Mafia’s “Filthy” and Death in Vegas’ “People Get Real.” But the real gems are PFM’s gorgeous and atmospheric drum ‘n’ bass on “The Sea” and Broadcast’s angular version of “Angel”--classics that hit the jackpot every time.
