专辑介绍

创立于1983年的DMC公司是英国第一间倡导DJ文化的唱片公司,过去20多年来对俱乐部文化一直起着举足轻重的作用,而该公司的系列唱片Back To Mine多少给人一种出自名门的感觉。Back To Mine的每一辑都会交由不同的音乐人去打理,音乐人会负责选曲和混音成沙发音乐,而选曲的原则是音乐人平日卧室里常听的私房音乐,单这一点已经能吊起乐迷的胃口,毕竟大家都想知道这些音乐人闲时是会听些什么。

Ultra Records的Back to Mine系列是展现一个电子乐队音乐品味的绝佳机会,其概念很简单:艺术家被赋予最大的‘编辑’自由,根据其品味选歌、编排、混音、制作出一张舞曲chill-out风格的专辑。

In a market saturated by mix albums of every description, Ultra Records' Back to Mine series glows like a beacon in a fog of mediocrity. The idea is simple: artists are given a free rein to compile sets that are both intuitive and personal to their tastes, resulting in mixtures of postclub textures chiefly designed for horizontal dancing and chilled-out bonhomie. Latest recruits Everything but the Girl take to the format like ducks to water, displaying a musical pedigree that touches on house, hip-hop, and light drum & bass. Although most people have warmed to the group's shift into dance culture, what will surprise is their sublime choice of tune. Kicking off with the drum-machine jazz of DJ Cam's "Friends and Enemies," the moody hip-hop noir of Deadly Avenger's "Bayou," and their own production on Beth Orton's "Stars All Seem to Weep," the mood is stoner-paced but never drab. Follow this with a little stripped-back ambience courtesy of Carl Craig and a rousingly sanguine finale featuring Donny Hathaway's "Someday We'll All Be Free," and you have the makings of a fine night in
