All of the tracks on this collection are previously unreleased remixes of songs from
Ursula 1000's 2005 release
Here Comes Tomorrow, except for the dancehall-flavored "Step Back," which is a new song written for this album and is presented in two different mixes (though in reality it's not completely new -- you can hear a slightly different version on
Tayo's contribution to the
Fabriclive DJ-mix series). The remixers who took on this project constitute an all-star cast of names that will likely be familiar to
Ursula 1000's international fan base, including
Skeewiff,
Fort Knox Five,
Ladytron, and Jstar, among others, and all of them manage to bring something new to the table while keeping
Ursula 1000's fun-loving vibe intact:
Fort Knox Five gives "Electric Boogie" a gritty, old-school mix that slyly incorporates vintage vocoder sounds and faux horns;
Robosonic's take on "Hello! Let's Go to a Disco" is both funny and funky, while
All Good Funk Alliance's mix of "Kaboom" is even funnier, funkier, and weirdly sexy to boot.
Product.01 outdoes
Fort Knox Five with their remix of "Electric Boogie" (by, among other things, making more creative use of the vocal samples). But the two versions of "Step Back" are the real stars of this program: Deekline and
Ed Solo turn it into a raucous slab of trashy electroclash, while Jstar twists it into sharp, funky modern electro-roots reggae. There's not a dull moment to be found here, and this album should work perfectly as a stopgap to keep
Ursula 1000's fans patiently waiting for the next platter of fresh cuts.
