Always nice to hear great classics in new formats, but the results here are mixed. A few of these mixes have masterfully managed to keep the qualities of the original while really also adding something new and exciting (The Scumfrog's mix of "Loving the Alien", Solaris' "Shout" which is a mix of "Fashion", and the fantastic Club Bolly Mix of "Let's Dance"). Others are truly dull and does not work at all outside a club setting. Without these dull tracks which should have remained rare and unreleased this would clearly have been a 5 star album. There are some very good Bowie-mixes out there that would have deserved their place here (such as the homeofmusic mix of "Let's Dance" and the Deepskys Space Cowboy Vocal Remix version of "I Took A Trip On A Gemini Spaceship"). Still, the good stuff is really good and enough to make this a great buy!
I am a big fan of Bowie, and a big fan of electronic and dance music. But these remixes are just dreadful. I read a mixed review of this cd somewhere, but bought it anyway. WOW. How dumb was that? These remixes are mind numbing, boring and repetitive. Some are completely unrecognizable, taking the hooks and lyrics we know and love, removing them and putting in their place horribly dated synth effects and drum tracks. My one and only question: Did David Bowie hear these remixes before allowing this release? If so, what was he thinking???
Not everyone will like every mix of some of their favorite songs. There are a few good versions here. The choice is yours.
well I'm with J Brady on this one. I guess Club Bowie is a hangover from the 80's when Bowie would release just about anything to make a buck. Most of the tracks on this album are just awful. Mind-numbing repetitive trash. Reminds me of the days when I bought the extended mix of Day in Day Out! And I wouldn't do that again in a hurry. In saying that though, there are one or two good remixes here; Scumfrogs' Loving The Alien and Solaris "Shout." The rest are fairly lame.
