If you like MGMT or Daft Punk, you will like this album. Shazamed a song when I was in American Apparel, that's how I head about them. Bought the album and was pleasantly surprised.

Sure the transitions are smooth..but c'mon they last a total of 4-5 seconds...cut on the crossfader and you're in just as long as you can beatmatch
although I will give props to Boy George for his inclusion of the garage themes Call It Fate and Let Me Be Your Fantasy..
he might be a better live DJ but if you want to buy the songs on this CD for their eclectic appeal...by all means do so..the mix is good in bringing out some of the less popular tunes

Sporto Kantes are amazing, and really worth checking out. While I'm only aware of two EPs, I can recommend both of them to anyone who likes artists like Mr. Scruff, Amalgamation of Soundz, Hefner, Massive Attack...ect. Despite the recent onslaught of recycled, tired electronic music, sporto kantes have delivered something totally fresh using inspired samples and different beats. Both Eps are a MUST, I'm only going to review this one though...

I listened to the stereo mix which sounds great and has 3 bonus tracks.  Then I tried the surround and you get a real sense of depth overall with a good bass kick.  The music videos are great quality and surround too.

This CD has some brilliant remixes! If all you wanted to know is, "Should I buy it?". Then yes. I suggest buying this, as it has some great remixes to listen to.

Like many others have said, the F.A.F mix of Forever Young has some real "Believe" by Cher vibes. The instrument selection, beat, and overall feel is nearly the same. Still enjoyable, but it has auto-tune...

The Eiffel 65 mix of Big in Japan has too much auto-tune for my taste, but it still has a nice beat (it makes use of the original song's melodies).

The Roland Spremberg remix of Big in Japan is better than the Eiffel mix. Nice strings in the chorus, nice punchy snare, and the vocals flow with the beat nicely! It has a bit of auto-tune, but not as near as much as the Eiffel mix.

The Jet Set remix is rather nice! I love the jazz-like feel it has, with the old brass horns and such. The vocals were evidently re-recorded to accompany the beat, but it DOES in fact remind me of the Jet Set Demo 1 you can find on the Dreamscapes set.

Dance With Me's remix is... eh. Not my cup of tea. I do like the fact that it uses bongo-like drum sounds (like the original did; Most evident with the Empire Remix's ending), but the vocal track it uses is iffy. I would've liked the original vocal track to have been used, but oh well.

Jerusalem's remix is the gem of this compilation. I love the way the remix artist wrapped such a beautiful acoustic guitar / bass / acoustic drum instrumental with Jerusalem's lyrics. I'd go as far as to say it's almost as good as the original.

Summer In Berlin's remix gives the same vibes as the Jerusalem mix does. Very nice. If you're an Alphaville-buff like me, you'll immediately notice the vocal track it has originates from the Summer In Berlin (Demo 2 Remix) you can find on the Dreamscapes CD set. A very nice re-imagining of this song.

A Victory of Love's remix is outstanding. Just like the Summer In Berlin remix: The vocals originate from the Victory of Love demo which can be found on the Dreamscapes CD set.

The Red Rose remix is awesome. It encompasses the original's upbeat feel, yet still gives it a new feel. The vocals are from the Red Rose demo found on Dreamscapes, though the chorus may have been re-recorded since it sounds different.

Romeos' remix is pretty good. The vocals were evidently re-recorded for this one (the verses, anyways. The chorus features the backing vocals from the original version). Some nice synths in this one.

Sounds Like a Melody's remix is great, but it's a bit slow. It makes me think of the first Sounds Like a Melody demo you can find on the Dreamscapes set (CD 1) since it sounds a bit sinister.
Summer Rain / Lassie Come Home's remixes don't interest me, as I don't care for the original songs, so no comments on those 2.

I would have to say this album is not as good as Discovery, but it is still a very good album.  The sounds Daft Punk creates are still in my mind so vastly different then what anyone is doing. Tracks like Human After All and Robot Rock just infectious.

Awesome stuff from Sir_NutS which applies some serious EDM/synth-pop to a NES sleeper-hit OST that deserves the attention!

I bought this CD yesterday after hearing both "One More Time" and "Aerodynamic" on the radio. I can easily say that this will be the new favorite of my CD collection, some people find Daft Punk's music repetitive but I find it refeshingly new. The songs are all different and all have a beat you can dance to. Forget what some of the other people say that gave this CD 1 star, those are the people that listen to people strum a guitar to near death and scream into a microphone and call _that_ music. Buy this CD, you won't regret it.

This CD is great. Not all tracks are listenable in my opinion, but there are some golden songs to be found here. Also, not every track is instrumental. There are about 3-4 of those on this CD.

The songs that stuck out the most to me were:

*Rise*
*Melody Calls* - love the ending...
*Catch The Sun* - very catchy. first song I ever heard from them. heard it on last.fm
*Firesuite* - decent instrumental introduction to the CD.
*The Man Who Told Everything* - i just love this song. period.
*Darker* - very vibe-y and my favorite here. has a unique sway to the beat and lyric delivery that i eat up every time.

Avoid *Valley*, *Break Me Gently* and *A House*.

Recommended especially if you like melancholy vocals and mysterious production.

4.3 stars.

YOU (HAVE TO) SHOULD GET THIS!  There are single tracks everywhere that are each worth the ridiculous price.

Reminds me of Moby's "Play" album.  Great beats to listen to while working.  The standout track for me, at least so far, is #7 ("No Image").  These guys should be paired up with Canibus, a la "Rip the Jacker."

This is a really neat album. Just like the first time I heard chicks on speed, i thought, wow! this is great! and then about halfway through the album it goes away from the current electro trend and becomes IDM art blippity bleep stuff. still interesting and original, but there's a lot of good IDM out there that's more...listenable.  But this album is worth the price for track 4 alone. Babies!!! Modern Babies!!! I'm not even sure what this song is about but it rocks.
this isn't as performance-oriented as chicks on speed albums tend to be, but more along the lines of hmmm....devo mixed with freezepop. or human league mixed with kid spatula. something. by the way, buy the freeze pop fashion funtion EP. it's really good if you like lightweight super melodic electro pop

This song is very catchy and danceable, though still low-key enough to listen to as background music. My only issue with it is that I prefer less voice in electronic music and more complex/prominent synth/instrumental tracks. Since this is just a personal thing, I would recommend this track to anyone interested in electronic music/EDM; at least play it a few times just to check it out, since it's a free download. Might as well!

Daft Punk is a duo that I've only recently come to love for their ambition, creativity, and craft, but even then I can't say I've loved everything they've done.  Much of their work, predominantly from their first and third albums, struck me as repetitive, boring electronic buzzing sounds that tend to play on a loop rather than evolve.  This is not to say that their other work ("Discovery" and "Random Access Memories," specifically) doesn't strike my fancy, as my qualms don't nearly affect these albums as much.  Perhaps it was just that Daft's more "house" offerings tended to just not mesh well with me.

Then I listened to Alive 2007, and I finally get it.

This album puts you right there at Bercy Arena with a raging crowd, a pulsing sound, and an intense, almost flawless greatest hits mashup of songs from Daft's complete history up to that point.  Thomas and Guy seamlessly blend all of their work together into an hour-long medley that you won't be able to stop bobbing your head to, guaranteed.  All of my issues with Homework and Human After All somehow just VANISH when you can hear the crowd cheering and moving to the beat, when the melodies of other songs compliment them so well.  The meshing of songs that this duo manages to craft are so perfect that I can barely imagine listening to them any other way.  Robot Rock?  Can't listen to it without whispering "OH YEAH" to myself anymore.  Rollin' and Scratchin' suddenly feels empty without a distant screech of "I AM THE BRAINWASHER."

Daft Punk are masters of the house and dance genres, and this album is a pure testament to that.  If you're a fan of any of their work or even disregard them as crazy robots* who just cut and paste the same 4 beats to make a song, give this a listen.  You won't be disappointed.

*Humans (after all).
