The Maximum Overdrive remix is over-the-top good. And the Soulwax Remix is F'ING PHENOMENAL INSANELY GOOD!!!

I bought Human After All when it first came out, and loved every song.
Last week I bought this album and lemme tell you, the two remixes on here are Freakin' Sweet!

The Maximum Overdrive is really intense, and the Soulwax Remix is pure Robot gold,showing off everything the song could possibly be.

Good Buy if your lookin' for more Robot Rock

The remixes are good only for those that have a computer to skip the rediculously long, drawn-out, and poorly thought out EP.

Maximum overdrive is really more of Daft punk saying "These are the different vocoder samples we were playing with while making Human After All, all 72 (sic) of them. And now here's the different rhythms and hooks we toyed with but never really made the cut into the album... stuck together."

Soulwax remix is same idea but borrows the slow-to-faster-hokey-pokey used in "Primetime of Your Life" and glues on the 2 guitar riffs for 85% of the song. Fantasmic Disaster.

Really, if you love Daft Punk soo much that you're a completist (like I am), then you've probably already bought it. But if you can't decide on this EP or the Technologic EP (1st or 2nd), get either of the Technologic EPs. They were much more planned and as a result give a better performance than this whole CD can give you.

Oh and check out Vitalic. He rocks Hard just like Daft Punk did.

I like Robot Rock, but when you get the subpar Soulwax remix (which does eventually become tolerable after a minute and thirty seconds or so), and the bizarre Maximum Overdrive track, it sort of kills the glory that is Robot Rock. Why buy this when for two dollars more you can get their whole fabulous new album?
