Music reviews of Boombox: The Remix Album
Music Review: Don't listen to the critics!
Rating: 4 Stars
I really don't understand why critics are too negative over Kylie's albums, especially since her latest studio album "X". Okay, we all know that This is not Mozart, or something - but who cares? Kylie has always been one of the greatest female popstars, who has been shining with her outstanding live performance and hit singles for years. And this is a collection of the best remixes of her Parlophone years. Therefore, I criticize the critics who claims that Kylie's albums do not sound well since her latest album "X". This is not a studio album - it just gathers what we have been hearing in the clubs since 2000.
As a Kylie fan who mostly dislikes the remixes of her songs (although I love remixes in general), I can say that the best remixes are chosen and their radio edits were included in "Boombox" - which makes it more listenable as you don't get bored with full-length remixed tracks, and it makes the album sounds more like a "studio" album than a remix compilation.
The classic mash-up "Can't Get Blue Monday", Mylo's well put "I Believe In You" and amazing Whitey remix of "Red Blooded Woman" are the most outstanding tracks on the album. The remixes of "Giving You Up" and "Slow" are tasty as well besides the "Light Years" stuff including "Spinning Around" and "On A Night Like This" which made me recall the "good old days".
There are probably two tracks where you feel sick in the album - the remix of "In Your Eyes" is the worst I have ever listened- and I really don't understand why this is chosen while there was such a great remix of Roger Sanchez out there. "The One"'s remix is almost sounding like its original - which is not a bad thing for your ears, but it's an unoriginal remix.
The only new track "Boombox" is also fun to listen to - and I am sure the fans who saw Kylie live at her XTOUR2008, will enjoy more from this track. I can suggest this album to any Kylie fan, and anyone who is eager to buy a high-class pop album to dance. This is what Kylie does best, and she does not disappoint even in a remix compilation.
Description of Boombox: The Remix Album
Drawing together classic remixes by heavy-hitters such as The Chemical Brothers and Fischerspooner, this dancefloor-ready collection contains exclusives, rarities and the highly sought-after Kylie/New Order mash-up "Can't Get Blue Monday Out Of Head".Ever since 2001's breakout hit album "Fever", Kylie Minogue has been racking up successive Billboard Club chart-toppers, all of which have enjoyed the remix treatment by some of the scene's best innovators. However, these mixes have largely existed on promo vinyl 12" singles or as European CD single bonus tracks and have never been available in one place - until now. Astralwerks, 2009.
