2.0 out of 5 stars Nothing exciting here., January 19, 2000

This review is from: Sour Times / Numbered in Moscow / Lot More (Audio CD)

There are 3 remixes or Sour Times on this CD. 2 of them (tracks 2 and 6) are barely different from the original but aren't as good. Although they aren't _bad_ they just aren't very interesting. "Lot More" is the 3rd remix, and it is practically rap, its nothing like the Portishead we are used to. (I can't stand that track).

"Tribute..." Is really pretty good, its a 7 minute long jazz/blues piece (no singing) followed by a few second of silence followed by a 4 minute blues-y remix of another song from Dummy. This is easily the best track on the single.

"Theme..." looked very promising since its from a movie... except they never sing on this track either. Its allright, its better than the Sour Times remixes, and I think it would make good theme music for a movie, but nothing much new happens in the piece, its a little dull. Not something you are going to listen to over and over.
