DJ CAM - REVISITED BY (RECALL RECORDS) |
| |
"DJ Cam Revisited By" is obviously a set of Cam tracks
remixed by a variety of artists (among them Thievery
Corporation). But this goes beyond just some
toss-it-out-there batch of mixed up techno numbers.
Actually, I think remix albums are more easily
appreciated by those who haven't heard the original
numbers, which, in this case, would be me. And I have
to say that this is a respectable, solid disc in its
own right. Marrying spartan with lush and beloved
chillout qualities with its badass kicked-backedness,
"DJ Cam Revisited By" confronts the listener with an
arresting slab of trackage that is admittedly
repetitive but within that repetition lies its hook.
Rather than coming off as dull or monotonous, the
music creates almost a sensual experience, ranging
from hip-hop tastes to exotic chillout. Finding laid
back but totally hooky grooves to suck the listener in
to a world of atmosphere, mystery and well-being, "DJ
Cam Revisited By" stands on its own two feet as a
trippytasty journey. -- review by Kristofer Upjohn
