Album Notes Depeche Mode: Dave Gahan, Alan Wilder, Vince Clarke, Andrew Fletcher, Martin Gore.Additional personnel: Alison Goldfrapp (background vocals).Since their emergence in the early 1980s, Depeche Mode has made the remix an integral part of their art. Their remix catalogue, in fact, outweighs their studio releases by a significant margin, and knowing where to begin sifting through the towering stack of extended singles can prove tricky. Fortunately, REMIXES 81-04 offers a Reader's Digest version of the band's remixes, boiling down the best from Mute's three-disc set of the same name, and providing casual fans with a manageable starting point. REMIXES 81-04 acts, on one hand, as a sampler of the band's remix history, but also includes new mixes by contemporary studio wizards.While not comprehensive, REMIXES 81-04 is outstanding nonetheless, highlighting the group's club-friendly, industrial-tinged dance beats while leaving room for their brooding melodic pop. The oldest mix, Daniel Miller's "Just Can't Get Enough" (1981), with its Kraftwerk-inspired electro-boogie, bears its age but is still compelling. Highlights include Kruder & Dorfmeister's acid-lounge treatment of "Useless," Air's lush re-invention of "Home," and Dave Bascombe's work on "Personal Jesus," which deepens the song's throbbing, hard-driving groove. In all, the album offers a fine cross-section of Depeche Mode's remarkable talent for invention and reinvention. Editorial Reviews Mojo | |||||||||||||
Reviews Review created: 30/01/08 by: The first thing that grabbed my attention was the clear and powerful sound quality - mind you the last time I listened to Depeche Mode was back in the days of vinyl and cassette - enough said! I really like the longer pumped up versions of all the classic's which deliver all the zip but without the zap. Crank up the volume and all the new little details come through wave after wave of sonic boom. Not many bands from the 80's will sound this good today,okay its been tweaked with but thats the point and it shows you why Gahan,Gore and co have stood the test of time.

Depeche Mode transform their pop style hits into modern techno. The fantastic "Nothing" is a must. Review ID: 10000000002503125 Was this review helpful? Report this review |
