3.0 out of 5 stars
Mac users beware, July 7, 2007
This review is from: Black Cherry 2 (Audio CD)
I got this because I'm both a Goldfrapp fan and an m83 fan. I was really excited when I heard on wikipedia that there was an m83 remix of Black Cherry. This disc is a really hard find. I couldn't find it in any store I went to in Seattle, anyhow. The m83 remix lives up to expectations; it takes a 3-star song and refreshes it into 4-star material. In terms of sound, it is similar to m83's Before The Dawn Heals Us era.
The Twist remix by Kurtis is definitely NOT good. It's a very forgettable "jungle-pop" drum machine mix. Listening to it only made me pine for the original Twist song, which still stands as one of Goldfrapp's best songs. Disappointing.
Mac Users like myself will only be treated to half of the disc content. The music videos on the disc are in some sort of format not recognized by OS X (likely WMP Video.) Also a shame but not a dealbreaker.
