Customer Reviews:

another CD I missed.......2006-08-18

Deee-Lite made 3 or 4 CDs and not a lot of remixes... it wasn't until Sampladelic Relics & Dancefloor Oddities that I was made aware of them. `Groove Is In the Heart' is still my favorite... with a lyric or two that I didn't hear before. Love it.

A Really Good CD---Here's Why..........2006-03-16

This was the first CD of Deee-lite I ever bought and liked it right away. It's a techno, beat-driven remix album, but it still maintains the funky grooviness deee-lite is known for, in fact it's better than their "real" albums. Sampladelic Relics & Dancefloor Oddities carries a more ubdated techno sound, but manages to capture the fun soul of Deee-lite very well. The songs flow into eachother nicely and are occasionally preceded by short tracks, for example the slam poetry of Kier on the track "Mind Melt". Some of the mixes are styled in lyrical song fashion, including "Groove is in the Heart", "I Had a Dream I Was Falling Thru a Hole in the Ozone Layer", and the VERY well done "I Won't Give Up". If you're looking for a fun album with psychedelic soul, this is a good one to choose.

Many a "Good Beat"........2005-04-19

It's your basic remix album, just good. I'm gonna guess casual fans can pass on this, and go for the hits disc. However, true fans of Deee-lite, or fans of electronica/dance music, may expierience a "Mind Melt" upon listening. None of the originals are really improved on, they're just much different. Some are nearly unrecognizable, some are slowed down or sped up quite a bit. This is surely full of good beats though, good samples, and it's a good 69 minutes long. If you're forever waiting on that Lady Miss Kier solo album, you know you need to pick this up.

BEST DEEE-LITE CD.......2003-03-01

...This is-by far-one of the best dance CDs ever! I wish there were more CDs that had this many great songs...I have World Clique too and it is also good, but not as many good songs. Highly recommended!

Chill-Out with some great Beats!.......2002-02-08

If you think of Deee-Lite as funky with a twist of somethin' eighties- THINK AGAIN!!! This album is INCREDIBLE! Everyone I play it for wants to know who it is and how to get it. It's mostly DRUM & BASS remixes of good melodies with GREAT BEATS and excellent vocal samples from the orginals. If you like ANY techno and don't know what to buy or where to start- here's the place! I have listened to this CD so much I have had to replace it twice. Take me up on it- and if you don't like it you can replace my scratched copy! LOL.
