CD Reviews

Only for fanatics

Victor Eijkhout | Knoxville, TN USA | 01/24/2003

(3 out of 5 stars)

"There are some good tracks here, but, no matter what the liner notes say, the hispanic remakes of disco classics are somewhere between totally superfluous and only for the fanatical disco collector, because musically they don't amount to much. Three CDs, and between them probably less substance than the (excellent) Night at the Playboy Mansion."

Only for the serious disco fiends

"No, baby, this ain't no Sacrebleu. Leave it to the French (or at least those who hail "from Paris," as Dimitri is from Turkey) to salvage disco. Whether it be nouveaux discoheads like Sebastian Leger or those remixing extant disco like Bob Sinclar (whose Cerrone remixes are top-notch), disco is back and bigger and badder than ever. Dimitri has proven to be a major player in this scene, particularly with his Playboy Mansion mixes (the first of which is hands-above better than the second, which seems hastily thrown together). This lovely three-cd package gives listeners more motion for the ocean. Although there are a few dogs throw in the mix (e.g., "Flight to Jamaica," "Que Tal America," and the especially odious "I Got a Thing"), the gems outshine them (e.g., "Barely Breaking Even," "Love Hangover," "Let's Make Love," and "Chameleon"). Dimitri's mixing leaves a great deal to be desired. While the music is continuous, some of the segues are clumsy and impede the flow of the music. Novices to the neo-disco movement would be better served by Dimitri's "A Night at the Playboy Mansion" or even one of the discs from the Paris is Sleeping Respect is Burning series. These mixes would give listeners more cushion for the pushin', at a cheaper price, to boot. Or, as one reviewer recommended, grab Larry Levan's Paradise Garage mix or even something from the Loft series."
