Album Description Drawing together classic remixes by heavy-hitters such as The Chemical Brothers and Fischerspooner, this dancefloor-ready collection contains exclusives, rarities and the highly sought-after Kylie/New Order mash-up "Can't Get Blue Monday Out Of Head". Ever since 2001's breakout hit album "Fever", Kylie Minogue has been racking up successive Billboard Club chart-toppers, all of which have enjoyed the remix treatment by some of the scene's best innovators. However, these mixes have largely existed on promo vinyl 12" singles or as European CD single bonus tracks and have never been available in one place - until now. Astralwerks, 2009.

Member CD Reviews Angela N. Reviewed on 8/22/2011... This is pretty good if you don't already have a lot of her remixes. However, if you do, chances are you'll have duplicates with this CD. The only difference between the remixes on this CD and those already released are that these are all edits. I prefer the original versions, personally, so the only songs I play are those that I don't have in their original forms.
Also, the Freemasons mix of The One would have been much better than the Bitrocka mix, in my opinion. Another annoyance is that Butterfly (Sandstorm Dub) AND the full version of Slow (Chemical Bros Remix) are not available on the CD version, but online only. Seriously? Why bother making a physical CD when the online version is cheaper and better? Oh wait, it's not. Those two songs are "album only" on itunes since they know how good/rare they are. In all, I'd say this is a good introductory remix album, but not a definitive one. 3.5/5 CD ReviewsA Solid Remix Collection Brandon J. Smith | Philadelphia, PA | 02/01/2009 (4 out of 5 stars) "Boombox does exactly what it sets out to do: It gathers together the best remixes of Kylie's classics between 2000 and 2008. There's certainly no shortage of Kylie remixes, with one or more on her various cd singles, which can vary in European, Japanese, and Australian incarnations. 2000-2008 has been Kylie's best period, with the landmark albums Light Years, Fever, Body Language, and X, as well as the Ultimate Kylie greatest hits collection that introduced two more of her best originals (I Believe in You and Giving You Up). The remixes selected for this set were the right choices, as these are indeed the most worthy of their own featured release. It doesn't make for a classic cd on the level of those mentioned above, but it makes for an enjoyable listen. If there's any disappointment, it's only this: What we really need is a complete B-Sides collection, featuring original song B-sides. Kylie could easily fill a double-disc collection of those songs, which are often as good as the songs on her official albums. As good as these remixes are here, none of them surpass the originals. So it's a welcome addition to Kylie's catalog, but ultimately a place-holder between studio releases." Interesting, but not a must-have Braden Pickering | Maricopa, AZ | 02/17/2009 (3 out of 5 stars) "I have been a Kylie fan since the Fever album came out, and have collected all of her albums and singles since then, mostly imports. So while about half these mixes are available on commercial CD singles already, a lot of them were brand new to me. But even so, the ones I already did have are here in edited form, which is cool, so you're not getting complete duplicates. (No track breaks 5 minutes.)
I was just surprised at how many dubs were included on this collection! Some are listed straight up as such, and others are not. Love at First Sight, Wow, Red Blooded Woman, and Giving You Up are the worst offenders, utilizing just one or two lines (if not words) repeatedly, and even 2 Hearts and I Believe in You cut out the choruses. Don't get me wrong, this is a great CD to get down and boogie to and it's always fun to hear something in a different way, but I also feel like you have to be somewhat familiar with the original versions of these songs to appreciate the remixes. Hence I might not recommend this to only a casual fan. For there being certainly no lack of Kylie mixes to choose from, it would have been nice if the producers or whoever had chosen ones with wider appeal. The One and In My Arms are personal highlights, but notably missing is any version of Chocolate. So it is kind of a lazy effort, or maybe a rushed release, but not a complete disaster. Three stars." |
