The music, people and stupid moments that make up the nightlife
Sometime in early-2000,
XTRMNTR replaced
Screamadelica as my favorite Primal Scream album. Still, I will concede that
Screamadelica was probably the band's most influential album, a psychedelic rock and acid house collage (produced in part by
Andrew Weatherall, who played the most intense DJ set I have ever witnessed) that set the pace for what listeners would hear on college radio for the next decade.
Screamadelica has aged well over the near-fifteen year span of time that has elapsed since its release.
Primal Scream Remixed is a testament to the album's staying power, with an eclectic range of artists tearing apart and piecing together the basic elements of
Screamadelica. Remixes range from dub to acid, from drum'n'bass to electropop. Needless to say, unless you happen to be extremely open-minded, you may not dig all of the mixes herein, but there is a little something for everyone.
