A great little album.
If you love dance music, you have to own this album and play it on a good sound system. All of the tracks are excellent and they are really innovative.Some are heavy and wonderfully discordant or challenging like "Spin Spin Sugar Armand's Bonus Dub"I love "6 Underground the Perfecto Mix" Wonderfully clever.There is the dark Garage Classic "Spin Spin Sugar Armand's Dark Garage Mix." More than a garage track, fabulous work, trust me. But, buy this album for one track, namely.... "Walking Zero (Tuff & Jam Unda-Vybe Vocal)"If you have your ear in for Chill, you will recognise this track as one of the greatest chilled dance tracks ever remixed. It is quite exquisite.Stick this particular track on a really good, rich dance sound system, set up for mid range and bass then you will be blown away. You will hear numerous influences in the track. If you have your ear in you will know them straight away! It really would spoil the experience if I listed them here. You need to figure them out as you listen as it is part of the greatness of the track. Even more special, the sounds are constantly moving around you. The layered sounds, such as brass and strings are expertly woven together and change in both key and tone behind the absolutely haunting vocal. A stunningly beautiful experience, not just music, but pure chilled joy and in my top ten chilled tracks.In fact the whole album, like the previous reviewer suggested, is a must have classic.Buy it now.

Becoming Remixed - Discontinued ???
Of All The Albums & Singles Avalable By This Group You'll Never Know The Depth Or Appreciate The Works Or Unique Style They Have Accumilated Rather Quickly, After Buying The Original "Becoming X" Then Being Turned On To This CD, I'm Suprised This Of All Their Complilations Was Discontinued, With Everyone Looking For Something New, Different, ect: This Album Was Exceptional!!! (You Wouldn't Dicontinue The Mona Lisa, or The Works Of Homer, Shakespear or Micheangelo ???(Would You)[This Album Should Be As Permanent As The Beatles And All The Other Remastered Works Being Turned Out Lately, Its Well Worth Owning And Should You Have This Album "Hang On To It" [Should You Unfortunatly Become Discontinued] Pass It On To Those Left Behind Who Need To Be Made Aware Of What Music Really Is...
