"This is one of Bjork's best remixes. Mark Bell takes this first track and adds some great beats, a fun sample of her voice, a soaring, catchy and off beat keyboard sample and serves us all Bjork's steaming, hot Potage Du Jour. I've heard this remix played on vinyl at some techno/house shindigs before and it's playful, quick pace infects dancefloors. It is the highlight of the cd but one you'll hit the repeat button for. Track number two is more housey than Potage, but it still is good. The beat arrangement is tight with some good samples before you get to the heart of the song lyrics. You'll feel like a hug before the cd is done playing. Track number three is the instrumental of the second one and is worth listening to. It is really catchy and if you dig Bjork, Mark Bell, house or techno, you'll find this little yellow cd in your rotation. Enjoy."

Work it, björk!

"i have a lot of pointless björk remix singles. this is DEFINITELY not one of them. along with having one of the best lyrics ever written, the majority of the alarm call remixes are super super good. this is my favorite alarm call cd, and it reeks of so much ecstatic exuberance that i can barely contain myself. if i had to limit myself to buying *just* one alarm call cd, this would definitely be it. well worth the 11+ dollars to have it."
