    It's a set packed with ideas and enthusiasm. [May 2006, p.105]

    A cornucopia of treats that will hopefully move your butt onto the dance floor whether you're at a club or in your living room. [#13, p.84]

    Their remix of Blues Explosion's 'Mars, Arizona' is the best record of the last five years, no question.... The rest? Merely brilliant. [15 Apr 2006, p.33]

    A few good ideas emerge, but are then repeated endlessly to the point of sheer boredom.

    I can't say LCD Soundsystem is my favourite band. But I can certainly say that James Murphy is my truly inspiration for my musical career. His projects including the ones with Tim are simply amazing and revolutionary. This work defines James and Tim geniuses, creating an unique compilation with remixes that you won't see anything like these. BRAVO!!!… Expand

    DFA are the best at making dance music for people that don't like dance music. Matt A, how much did you spend on the girl?
