Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

As Heard on Radio Soulwax Vol. 2 follows some mixed reviews for the Soulwax boys' efforts at composing from scratch: they discovered they had a much greater talent for ripping other people's works together to create a whole new sound of their own.

As pioneers of the mash-up scene, the Soulwax boys were the first to actually get something into the public domain, and you can but wonder at how they managed to get most of the stuff on here cleared for use. Despite their clever moniker, 2 Many DJs is just two guys with a digital mixer and a box full of tracks that you'd never think to mix together. From Salt 'N' Pepa's "Push It" cut up with the Stooges' "No Fun", to Destiny's Child's "Independent Woman" over 10cc's "Dreadlock Holiday", blending seamlessly into Dolly Parton's "Nine to Five", the tracklisting may look like someone's idea of a joke, but somehow it works.

This is quite possibly the ultimate party soundtrack with something for everyone and the emphasis firmly on fun. --Helen Marquis

Pushin' It Real Good 1 April 2003
Format:Audio CD
From start to finish, this album contains those moments where you have to check the tracklisting to find out if what you are listening to is ACTUALLY what you think you are listening to.

From the very first (Bonus, may I add) track, there are original bootlegs of contemporary pop tunes, old skool beats and general all round merriments. The CD kicks off with a bonus remix of Can't Get You Out Of My Head by Kylie, and you actually have to search skip backwards to before the first track to hear it. It's a strange psychedelic breaks remix, but the original elements are there and you can place the tune instantly. Once the bonus track finishes, Steven Hawkin (maybe not) introduces the band to rapturous applause, which is well-deserved I feel.

Highlights include the first track of the mix, which is a strange but successful concoction of Emerson, Lake & Palmer and Basement Jaxx, a stuttering bootleg of Salt 'N' Pepa's Push It Real Good, a fusion of two Michael Jackson songs right at the heart of the mix, and a Caribbean collaboration between 10CC and Destiny's Child. All of these moments leave you wondering how the Soulwax Crew thought up such mixtures of joints, but when you see how well they work together, you can't help but be immensely satisfied with the results.

If you like your CDs to be original, funky and entertaining from start to finish, then this is definitely one for your collection.

Simply brilliant. The tracklisting reads like a C90 you used to compile for your school chums, even the CD presentation looks cheeky and knocked-up. Once you press play however, your are blessed with 60 minutes of class mixing that would lift any party, any mood and launch your weekend with style. More official albums guys! Please!!

Everytime I come to amazon and i see this album recomended to me, i wish i had'nt of bought it 6 months ago so I could rediscover it! It is one of the finest mix albums i've heard for a long time, anyone who can flawlessly run from Basement Jaxx to Felix da Housecat then to Destiny's Child (of course mixed with 10cc), on to Dolly Parton and finishing off with New Order deserves your custom, and possibly an honorary knighthood. I personally guarantee you will enjoy this album, it's a party in plastic case!

Simply the best
Soulwax (2 many dj's) are probably the finest remixers in the world at the moment. Their work is a labour of love and this is felt throughout all of their mixes. Read more

Just what I expected
The CD was exactly what I expected. It was brand new, works perfectly and had no scratches on it. It was a CD that I had used so much that it was ruined so I bought a second copy. Read more
