2.0 out of 5 stars Not a great set of remixes., November 5, 2001

Goldfrapp is a spectacular accomplishment as a band and a personality, but this CD of remixes falls flat like so many remix CDs do. If you do get this, do so because there's a bunny on the cover, that's about it. There isn't even one track I would recommend. While the Spanish "Calexico" cover of Utopia, is unexpected, it's not terribly outstanding. And the Let's Get Physical cover of the UK Girls I can do without, though to Goldfrapp's credit they do a reasonable job of turning this into a "Goldfrapp" sounding track. Possibly the only track of genuine interest on this CD is the live version of Human, which sounds alarmingly close to the album version but with out the intense low end. And there's a Utopia dance remix and a blippity electronica remix--the usual fair. It's just that the proper album is already so fantastic these tracks don't explore that. But if you have a burning love of remixes, or you like to dance, you might like this CD.

Olivia (Physical) got a revamp Goldfrapp style and Utopia got a new sound. That makes the single worth it's purchase. The only main draw back is the Calexico version of Human, that was unecessary.

Utopia is a great pop song, but it took Sunroof to give it a really solid third dimension. This ep would be worth purchasing for the Sunroof mix alone, but every other track is good value and markedly different from the others; it plays out like an album in itself. Highly recommended.
