Accidentally bought this with one-click (be careful, there's no "basket" for mp3's...), but was pleased with the purchase. Paying for $30 for the CDs makes no sense when you can have the collection for almost 1/2 the price. A fantastic collection.

If you like electronica at all, this is really hard to beat. Martin takes old musical themes and does things with them that he didn't get around to before, and well, wow. For example, I'v always liked the song 'useless' but the version on this record is just so subltley nuanced, it just makes your skin crawl, and I mean in a good way. A lot of times it sounds like he is using original tapes, but then by remixing them with new arrangements, he re-contextualizes- in some cases with alternate chord progressions - which gives this a sort of dream-like quality - it's the same but different - it's like being on acid and doing something you've done a hundred times before, but now it's amazing! This is my cup of tea . . .

This is a really cool compilation of most/not all their remixes. I would suggest this download for any DM fan.
