Stunning Re-mix Al***s
Posted by: garyi on 12 December 2003
Often considered the bastard child, the re-mix album often turns up some great stuff.
For me Fila Brazilla's Another Late Night got me into the sounds of Mr Scruff and The Beta Band.
With this in mind I have been aware of re-mix albums out there and was abruptly bought back to this when I heard some stunning stuff on a 'Chill out' CD I heard at work today, unfortunatly I didn't get the name, but heard all sorts including Deadly Avenger and DJ Shadow.
With that in mind and the knowledge I would be on me own this evening I have had a hunt through recent purchases and have decided that 'Global Underground: James Lavelle is an excellent re-mix album featuring DJ Shadow, Leftfield, Roots Manuva (who are excellent BTW) and Ils amongst others.
What other re-mixes should I look out for. Obviously of the electronica variety!
Face it guys, the 70s has gone, this is the acceptable face of the underground, the floyd of the noughties you might say.
