angelic resonance.......2007-05-04

A lot of people try to write off Nine Inch Nails as noise. But I can only perceive this as angelic resonance. The first time I heard Down In It, I was on the beach, in the middle of the night, and I was shaken to the very foundations of my being. I knew instantly what the artist was singing about... the loss, the loneliness, the pain of a need so deep he would rather destroy himself than live without it... and if there was anything I possibly could have done, I would have done it to ease his suffering.

Listen closely to this music. This is the sound of despair.

I know it intimitely.

Great song, but blah remixes........2005-09-30

You know that song, "Down in It" by Nine Inch Nails, where he speaks to where it's almost in a rap, and there's lots of industrial noises on the chorus, etc? Well, that song _is_ included here in the form that also appears on the album. An entertaining song to say the least. I am just as big of a NIN fan as anyone else out there, but the TVT singles were really nothing to sneeze at. Especially "Down in It"'s single.

What makes this not worth owning? Well, others have explained that already. Besides, the remixes are boring, repetitive, and too long. If you are a halo collector, I guess you can get this. If you like the original "Down in It" and don't know if you want to get "Pretty Hate Machine" (a highly recommended album), I guess this too. But I feel that this single doesn't have the merit of the later ones like "Closer to God" and "March of the Pigs", truly great NIN singles.

a must have.......2005-07-01

true, these songs can be found on halo 3, head like a hole single, but if you are a serious nine inch nails collector, this is a must have.

down in it, although not the best nine inch nails song out there, shows you the beginning on nin. this is the first song trent wrote as nine inch nails.

Decent, but of no real value-- material available elsewhere.......2005-05-24

This single contains three mixes of "Down In It" by Adrian Sherwood and Keith LeBlanc-- the skin mix (which is the album mix available on "Pretty Hate Machine"), the shred mix, and the singe mix (the latter two both are available on the US "Head Like a Hole" single). Given that all this material is available elsewhere, the value of this CD is only to people (like me) who want to have a nice set of all the Nine Inch Nails halos (Reznor numbers all his releases with a "halo" number, I have no idea what the significance is).

The song itself is pretty well known, but in case you don't-- its a decent piece, catchy, nice rhythms-- primarily beats and effects over which Reznor speak-sings a sort of esoteric lyric thats been said to be about everything from a bad trip to a bad girl. The skin mix is concise and probably the best of the three, the shred mix is like the old 12" extended mixes-- its essentially the album mix with several minutes of additional beats and sampled vocals from earlier in the piece. The singe mix is a sort of dance mix with the vocal largely removed and relegated to a sample and is probably in my assessment the least enjoyable of the three mixes.

I'd give it three stars if it wasn't all available elsewhere on the strength of the material. Again, its for completionists only.

Obsolete... get Pretty Hate Machine and Head Like A Hole.......2005-02-09

Down In It (1989.) Nine Inch Nails Halo One

Trent Reznor's classic alternative/industrial rock group, Nine Inch Nails, first formed in the late eighties. At conception, the group did not use the gritty, agressive, down-to-earth industrial stylings that would make them popular in the mid-nineties, but rather a techno-influenced rock sound. Because of the difference in sounds, many a fan overlooks the band's early material, or just passes it off as being bad when it really isn't (it's my favorite NIN stuff!) Read on for my review of Halo One - the Down In It single.

This was the first official Nine Inch Nails release, and it contains three versions of the title track. The Skin Version of the song is the same version that appeared on the Pretty Hate Machine album, and the other two versions are available on the American Head Like A Hole single. In other words, this release is completely obsolete unless you're a Halo completist. Furthermore, the Head Like A Hole single contains the demo version of Down In It, something that really SHOULD have been included on this single. Since you can get all of these songs in other places, wouldn't you just be better off bypassing this single entirely? That's right. Unless you're a completist, don't bother with this.

This release (and most of the stuff from the Pretty Hate Machine era) seems to be becoming more difficult to find, implying that it is out of print. I could care less about this single since it's obsolete, but the other releases from this era really should have their production resumed and their availability increased.

My final verdict is obvious - The Down In It single is for Halo completists only. Likewise, the stuff on most Nine Inch Nails singles (usually nothing but remixes) is likely to appeal ONLY to big fans of the group. If you're a casual fan, stick to buying the albums, not the singles/remix EPs. If you just want all of the band's recordings and aren't so much a completist, you can get these on the aforementioned releases.

Eh, it was alright...........2002-01-15

Okay the first time I heard RITM I was at this party in Dallas. I had never heard their stuff before and someone sticks this CD into the player. I was like Who is this?? I asked and was told who it was.
I didn't really care for this CD once I learned it was their remixes Vol 1. I feel that artist should do their own stuff instead of specializing in other's styles and work. At least do their own work first off, then do remixes after they've been out a while. Maybe the person at this party shouldn't have played a remix album by RITM and instead brought an album done by RITM. I've only heard a couple of songs that RITM has done on their own. They've become famous doing remixes, and that's all I hear about them now. "It's a RITM remix of BT's song or Oakenfold's song!" Blah blah.
I don't have a problem with remixes. Oakenfold, BT, Tiesto, Special DJ K, PVD, etc all of them had done their share of those. BUT these artists ACTUALLY HAVE THEIR OWN DANG ALBUMS TOO! They do their own work and try not to make money off other artist's work and style by mixing it up.
After this RITM CD was over with, I placed my C.M. "Vegas" cd into the player.
I just feel they should be doing their own stuff more often than not.

Remixes worth getting.......2001-10-14

Though it's not an album this is nonetheless a much welcomed release from these highly rated electronic producers. A collection of remixes done by the Florida based electronic dance act Rabbit in the Moon of various artists work.

A good collection with highlights including the brilliant collaboration with Humate on 'East' and their stunning remix of Orbital's 'Are We Here?'.

Any fan of Rabbit in the Moon should have this along with dance music fans who want something a bit different.

a tragic flaw removes two stars from this disc..........2005-09-04

most people probably don't know this, but all of the remixes on this disc are EDITS of the full length club mixes. Every one of these songs was released as a promo 12" single to DJs--and compiling them on here, they've cut up to 2 minutes off some of the songs!!! Did we really need an radio mix of I'm Real when we have the long version? By the way--I'm Real is the only version that is the full length 12" mix--but it's not the BETTER mix that was on the 12". The other side of the 12" had Hex Hector's NYC Rough mix, which was a more aggressive house mix comparable to the junior and calderone mixes on here. If you have a turntable, try to seek out these 12" singles of these great mixes that are deserving of their full length versions...

Excellent remix album!.......2003-06-22

With Lisa Stansfield's work already being quality product, remixes would seem to be superflous and unnecessary. False! All the songs featured here were dancefloor hits for a reason, and that's the succesful combination of Lisa's outstanding voice, lyrics that are appropiately either uplifting or heartbreaking, and a fabulous melody to back them up in the form of dance beats and bleeps. A most welcome addition to my Lisa collection.

club class all the way.......2003-01-15

... #1 Remixes is a really good remix album. It may be 5 years and counting, but most of this still sounds very fresh, mainly because the remixers have a readily identifiable sound and are pretty much the cream of the crop. If you love (even just like) Ms Stansfield's voice and dig dance music this album will send you heavenward.

People Hold On......... TO EACH OTHER.......2000-06-05

There may not be 20 CD's in my entire collection (there are over 300 CD's in it) that I have been more thrilled listening to, and buying than this. This has everything. Great DJ's mixing, (Hani, Hex Hector, and Junior) multiple versions of GREAT dance tunes which sound different, long mixes (a few that clock in easily at eight or nine minutes), and a great price. One of the slower songs on her self-titled CD I'm Leavin just happens to be the best mix on this. A ten minute plus version with Hex Hector that just may have you shaking your head off in the middle of it. The only thing missing is Barry White lending guest vocals on Never Never Gonna Give You Up.

Tighten Up Vol. 1 (Remixes).......2006-12-21

I like "Hangin on a String" as it's the original version. The rest of the disc I rate as "passable." Three stars...

Maybe I was expecting too much..........2006-02-21

This CD is just OK. Maybe I was expecting too much. The 'Slow Down' remix is cool. Nothing else really jumps out at you. It's like if this was playing in the background while you were shopping, you might not notice.

The way R&B music should be.......2001-12-05

Despite my being of African descent, I have always had a huge problem with American R&B I find that too much of it just sounds the same, and really is boring. I just can't get down to it. I find British R&B much more enjoyable, and Loose Ends is one of the best groups of the genre. Jane Eugene was a real chanteuse and makes todays so called R&B "Divas" sound like yowling cats.

This is a remix of their hits and it is really well done and I find that I love to listen to it over and over, without getting bored. My favorite tracks are: Don't Be A Fool,OOH You Make Me Feel (a remix), Choose Me (a remix),Slow Down (a remix), Hangin On a String (orignal Remix).

This is a great CD, If only todays R&B artists would take a page from Loose Ends then I would have much more apprectiation for the genre.

Platinum re-worked.......2001-02-22

This Album is very interesting.For the die hard fans it has a few tracks but it re-works some tracks to bring new dimensions to some of the older tracks. Look out for Choose me and Gonna make you mine, they are real gems and guru's appearance on A little spice. "Give me a sunset evening in Central London, a convertible car, some open road and "A little spice"

Get this and quick. Probably the best introduction for the not so soul hearted.

Carl,Steve,Jane - London Loves you

The Magic Touch.......2000-06-21

U.K.'s finest, Loose Ends, is offered through this well compiled remix collection. This is fitting for those who are truly fans of an innovative act that help put British Soul of the 80s in a frenzy.

Greatest Remixes, Vol. 1.......2007-03-19

A good overall collection from the C&C Music Factory. My disappointment was "Seduction - It takes two" remix. I'm having no luck in finding a version of the song that I actually like (except on the Seduction's album - where their version of "It takes two" is almost 45 seconds shorter that reported on the CD back-cover!). This collection rates three stars!

It's what we danced to at the start of the 90's!.......2003-07-16

With "Two to Make It Right", "Clouds", "True Love", and "You Take My Breath Away" (featuring a surprisingly good lead from David Cole) as the standout tracks, the rest of this compilation is routine "retro disco" from the time period.

The pair is better represented on "Gonna Make You Sweat" and "The Ultimate C & C Music Factory".

Amazon.com

Subtlety does not exist in Fatboy Slim's world. The no-nonsense king of big beat has a job to do: get the party started right. The relentless musical hook is at the center of Greatest Remixes. Reggae and ska rhythms ("Magic Carpet Ride," "Get Up! Go Insane!"), R&B lines ("The World's Made Up of This and That," "What Is Kahuna?"), and acid-synth ("Roll the Dice") are all just grist for the groove mill. "Dubby Jointy" is the disc's wildest track. Backwards tape whooshes, a screaming guitar lick, and a crazed, creepy vocal part coalesce into an inspired version. The album's closer, a remix of "E.V.A." by Jean Jacques Perrey surprises. Fatboy knows enough not to mess too much with the 30-year-old song. The original--funky, loungy, and spacy--could have been recorded last week. --Fred Cisterna

Customer Reviews:

Yo check it out.......2001-04-06

Big beat brashness, funky disco and dopey sounds that test the capacity of your listening pleasure, even insane in the membrane people I suppose. This CD indicates a non-stop party must be going on in Fatboyslims magical mixing mind. "Mighty Dub Katz" is about as clever as it gets for a meshing of sound that is Cypress Hill meets the rude boyz. "Psychedeliasmith" is out there but fits nicely into the concrete jungle landscape, a heady blend of synths and loops. There are a few turkeys too. "Roll the Dice" does just that, I think it came up snake eyes.Sometimes repetition becomes just that, repetitive. On the flip side it works sometimes like on the standout "Deeds Plus Thoughts," nothing to think about here just enjoy the mad master mixer at work. There are plenty of non stop grooves but what fascinates is that one person can orchestrate and manipulate all the diverse and seemingly unrelated sounds into one coherent package. Not my favorite Fatboyslim CD but solid nonetheless. It is easy to see why he one of the most recognizeable mixers of all the gazillion out there. Recommended in small quanities unless you have a high tolerance for pain in the membrane.

Average, but 3 tracks here are great.......2001-01-18

Most of this disc is mediocre. Fatboy Slim gives us a lot of mixes that are pretty good but not anything special, and when there's this many, we see the limitations in his style. However, three songs are simply incredible and really must be heard: Wildchild's "Renegade Master", Christopher Just's "I'm A Disco Dancer", and Underworld's "King of Snake". They all follow the Fatboy formula, but it seems like he does a much better job. These three are moments worthy of his best original productions. So this may not be a necessary purchase, but there are some great parts to it.

Definately an "easy listen".......2000-05-09

As an avid Fatboy Slim fan, I can say that this CD isn't in the same style as his past couple CDs, but it's actually a little more laid back for an easy listen. It has some upbeat songs, and some smooth, almost instrumental songs. All in all, it makes a good driving CD or casual listening CD. I'm glad I bought it.

If you like The Beastie Boys . . ........2000-05-09

OK, I am not a big Beastie Boys fan, and this album ("Greatest" Remixes) reminds me of their style - loud, brash, unmelodic, hardcore. I couldn't listen to two tracks in a row without popping out the CD. I would've given this CD only one star, but I realize that it might be suitable for some people who liked that "Insane in the Membrane" sound I thought we got rid of a few years ago. As a note, I do have and enjoy "The Norman Cook/Fatboy Collection" and "Live from the Big Beat Boutique." Both of those CDs have some variety. This one is just loud and brash all the way through.

One of a long line of rehashes.......2000-05-01

I can't see anyone justify these as his greatest anything. His studio work clearly outshines most of the mixes here. There are no fewer than three Fatboy Slim collections released in the last year, including this one and Hip-O Records' "Fatboy Slim/Norman Cook Collection". Both strike me as minor-label attempts to make a quick buck on a big star. If you want a primer, get Better Living Through Technology. If you want a greatest-hits album, wait until he compiles one, rather than settling for this.

Might be more fun in a club..........2006-03-30

It's good... but not great. I like St. Et remixes that one can toss on a compilation of one's own making or put in occasionally and have fun admiring the single artwork. And I like my remixes radical. :)

This single consists of the Eric Kupper radio, club and dub mix (both 8:17) the dj barringer club mix (7:59), lite mix and radio mix and the album version. The club mixes would certainly be fun to hear in a club (as if! in my small town) but are a little lifeless on headphones especially next to the original which has a lot of pure pop build and release. The remixes do have some tension and release but it's more Pet Shop Boys brand and not very Aphex Twin stylee.

You can sample and purchase this single on iTunes, btw.

And, being a designer, I have to say that the album art is pretty inferior for St. Et. It's got ALMOST a "kitsch" bad quality to it and I'd have gone with that if the designer had dropped some hint that it was tongue-in-cheek. But no... I think it's just a novice graphic designer. It's a shame too because the "Turnpike"-era illustrations are a lot of fun. Savoy Jazz, hire me!

So, let's hope that Vol. Two is more adventurous. Let's hope it is a version of Good Thing - the single that was SO very limited (by mistake) in the UK. Great show in San Fran, Feb. 2006!
