4.0 out of 5 stars A Good CD Just Got Better, September 3, 2002

This review is from: Philadelphia Experiment Remixed (Audio CD)

I have been hearing for awhile that this CD was in the process of being remixed. By whom and in what format, I wasn't sure of. Not until a couple of weeks ago, I found out King Britt was behind this......and that's enough for me to get this with out hearing a track. Broken beats, eletronic thumps, phat beats galore and the Philly Experiment blended and smothered nicely to make this a great nu-jazz/acid jazz (I hate labels) vibe. Seriously, there isn't a weak or bad track on this CD to be found. Up-tempo, down-tempo, a head nod magnet is what your getting when you purchase this gem. King Britt & company continues to provide ear candy.

5.0 out of 5 stars A particular atmosphere which attracts me., March 19, 2005

This review is from: Philadelphia Experiment Remixed (Audio CD)

I love King Britt for his eclectic sounds in electronic (hip-hop, acid jazz, funk, deep house...) and I find this album pretty good and enough original. I can't really describe the style of electronic music in this philadelphia experiment remixed. Downtempo, future jazz, broken beats and some deep ambiances...and one thing is sure: this album makes you imagine.All tracks are good, particulary the tracks 1,3,5 (scuba remix),9 (obafunke remix) and 15 (bikter duplaix remix).
If you like king britt, you can't be disappointed. If you want to discover electronic music, buy something a bit less abstract

This review is from: Philadelphia Experiment Remixed (Audio CD)

This album is more of 2.5 stars than 3, but I gave it the benefit of the doubt. This album has a fairly wide variety of sounds for all kinds of listeners, with two or three standout tracks. However, the songs are overly repetetive. The songs are all fairly long (with the exception of the interludes, all based on streets in Philedelphia, and all less than 20 seconds) and monotonous. They have good beats and have interesting grooves, but it has the potential to do much more. This CD has classic music potential, and could have been if the songs were all kept shorter than 5 minutes or had kept changing throughout the 8 or 9 minute songs. After a while, it begins to lose your interest. It is unlike most of King Britt's other music, especially because he only wrote one song on the 19 track CD (That track is a Scuba mix, one of KB's many stage names, and is inferior to each track on his relatively new Scuba album.). If you are a KB fanatic, then this CD may fulfill your fix, but if you are looking for a "nu/acid jazz" fix, this may not be your cup of tea.
