Moby / Various

This is a beat-powered mass of Moby tracks reworked by the re-editing hands of special, proficient talents. Laidback Luke's remix of "Wait For Me" (among three) begets sparkling sound imagery and this artist's power in the new school world of club music. Berlin's Paul Kalkbrenner creates a mix of the same song, only this time with ethereal, haunting character. Carl Cox's remix of "Walk With Me" walks a skilful, rumbling line of grumbling audio and slick sound engineering. The bouncy remix of "Study War" by radical duo Savage Skulls sounds a lot like old Prodigy, with a Green Velvet touch. Tiësto remixes "Shot In The Back Of The Head" in a heart-tugging, soulful, emotional way unique to the artist. Production-wise, this record shows the metamorphoses of songs by one maestro of the turntables creatively transformed by others. Disc two is an exclusive DJ mix by Moby of his tracks remixed by an amazing cross-section of present day masters of the electronic.
