4.0 out of 5 stars Sincere and respectful remixes of 80's classics., January 20, 2005

This collection starts off relatively weak but contains the definitive extended versions of Blue Monday, Sex, and Major Tom, all in one place -- easily worth the original store-bought price that I paid for it. Animal Song is fun and bouncy; Trans-X is fun and bleepy. The Yaz and Erasure tracks are well done but not exceptional versions. Admittedly, even the first two tracks grew on me after a while. While this is good, volume 2 is better. I really wish they had produced a volume 3.

2.0 out of 5 stars bizarre, September 18, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Hit That Perfect Beat 1 (Audio CD)

A very strange collection. The whole synth-pop sound was best done by the English, so the best tracks on this collection are by Yazoo and New Order. Gang of Four run a close second. As for the rest...what a motley crowd; the panstick is definitely looking a little heavy. For absolute fans and completists only, especially given the price.
