This cd rocks!
If you're into James Bond and techno covers then this cd is perfect for you. The covers of the James Bond Theme, OHMSS, man with the G.G., goldeneye, and nobody does it better all rock. Some of the stuff really isn't techno, like tomorrow never dies and We Have All The Time in the World but its still good if you like bond music. It's the love child of the Chemical...

The Effort Is Not Enough
I am a huge fan of every facet of the James Bond phenomenon, the musical scores in particular. I am also a major consumer of electronic music of all types. Unfortunately, the two worlds don't tend to intersect well. David Arnold can pull it off because he combines traditional orchestration with subtle electronic enhancements to create a contemporary sound for his...

This review is from: Electronica Tribute to James Bond (Audio CD)
If you're into James Bond and techno covers then this cd is perfect for you. The covers of the James Bond Theme, OHMSS, man with the G.G., goldeneye, and nobody does it better all rock. Some of the stuff really isn't techno, like tomorrow never dies and We Have All The Time in the World but its still good if you like bond music. It's the love child of the Chemical Brothers and James Bond (hey he did sleep with many anonymous partners). This cd is beyond the definition of rock.

The Effort Is Not Enough, May 2, 2000
This review is from: Electronica Tribute to James Bond (Audio CD)
I am a huge fan of every facet of the James Bond phenomenon, the musical scores in particular. I am also a major consumer of electronic music of all types. Unfortunately, the two worlds don't tend to intersect well. David Arnold can pull it off because he combines traditional orchestration with subtle electronic enhancements to create a contemporary sound for his scores. On the other hand, Moby's take on the 'James Bond Theme' from 1997 was lame and uninspired. I didn't even need to buy this album to determine how bad it is (the five 30 second audio samples are plenty to judge by). I only posted a one star rating because zero wasn't an option. You'd be better off buying Arnold's "Shaken And Stirred" project or flushing your dosh down the loo. Carry on then.
