4.0 out of 5 stars Remixed and Redone, Sakamoto survives, February 10, 2000

This review is from: Anger & Grief Remixes (Audio CD)

It is a testimony to Ryuichi Sakamoto's broad appeal that his classical music gets reworked by house music DJs. For those, like me, who can appreciate a brainy piece of classical music as well as a good pounding beat of hip hop-influenced dance music, this is the best of both worlds. It probably helps for one to know the source disk, a beautiful work of four very-different pieces of music. But these remixes are enough of a departure from the antecedent material, rich enough for repeated listenings.

This review is from: Anger & Grief Remixes (Audio CD)

Ryuichi Sakamoto, one of Japan's electronic music pioneers, has his modern classical tracks, Anger/Grief, worked over in a big way. How big? Well, Amon Tobin goes dark and spooky on "Grief", while Rare Force run "Anger" through some martial hip-hop. Talvin Singh inserts his trademark tabla `n' bass in "Anger" and Chocolate Weasel takes a different approach: it's a cacophonous din of horns and drums. The original "Anger" is also included -- it's interesting just to hear how different the remixes are.
