Forever Faithless: the Greatest Hits

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Dance and Electronic
by: Faithless

May 16, 2005
Being a fan of Faithless, it might lead me to being rather biased here when I say this album is simply the best album you WILL ever buy. Each song is fantastic in its own way, but I particularly like Why Go (featuring Estelle) and I Want More (the video is amazing!). Perfect for fans of slightly old-school not-too-heavy dance music such as Depeche Mode or more funky house style bands like Morcheeba perhaps. And, for under a fiver, it's an absolute bargain! You will kick yourself hard if you don't buy this album, I mean it!

The Warning

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Dance and Electronic
by: Hot Chip

May 22, 2006
Genre-bending Hot Chip have not only released some of the singles of the year but one of its best albums. As with Gorillaz and Gnarls Barkley recently, mid-way into the `noughties' we are starting to see some real wit and invention in pop music that may come to define the decade. `The Warning' finds them putting heart and soul into their curious mish-mash of folk whimsy, house and electronica. For all the sonics and low-fi trickery, and the comedy lyrics, there is beauty and genuinity shining throughout. Their songs are unconventionally tangential, with phases and subtexts, but pulled off with a playful insouciance that belies some of the technical brilliance.

After the abrasive aural assault of the opener `Careful' is the brilliant ... Read More:

Stanton Sessions Vol.3: Mixed By Stanton Warriors

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Dance and Electronic
by: Stanton Warriors

October 27, 2008
Stanton Warriors are a complete package - they're technically flawless and craft mixes that both captivate & entertain.

This starts heavy and you're locked in after the neat slice from Club Action into Shifting Gears. From here it's a full throttle ride through some of the Warrior's latest (and phenomenally high-quality) new material plus some neat breakbeat (or 'bonus beat') re-works of current underground favourites ('Oh' by Boys Noize, 'Nifty' by Nifty (Basement Jaxx), Frankie Valli, Alan Braxe & Chemical Brothers).

But all these gems could fall apart if it wasn't the Stanton's in control of the show - the whole 74 minutes feels so assured and polished. In short, this continues the impressive discography which further ... Read More:

Moulin Rouge

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Dance and Electronic
by: Various Artists

May 26, 2003
A brave move to set a period film against the backdrop of a very modern soundtrack, but in this case, it works, and very well too.
Fans of the movie will love this soundtrack, but it's also just a great CD, one that should be a staple of any collection. The clever reworkings of so many old hits, El Tango de Roxanne in particular, give a new flavour to the tracks and help to up the kitsch value of the movie. Although it was a huge worldwide hit, it was certainly quirkier than most of your five-star movies, and the soundtrack is exactly the same.
The Elephant Love Medley is a sparkling blend of too many songs to count, but you'll have fun trying to name them all, if you're not too caught up in just how wonderful Ewan McGregor and Nicole Kidman are. ... Read More:

The Specials

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Dance and Electronic
by: Specials

March 25, 2002
This is my favourite of the 2 Specials albums. 'More Specials' is quirkier, but this is equally fun and more up-tempo. I love to leap around to this record at every oportunity, (much to the annoyance of my neighbours). I could wiffle on about all of the profound lyrics and such and Terry Hall's deadpan style, but once you buy this record then you will find out for yourself. Suffice to say that this record is well worth getting for your collection. If you like that 2 tone sound, then it really doesn't get any better than this. And at this price it is a steal!!!!

Invol2ver: Mixed By Sasha

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Dance and Electronic
by: Sasha

September 08, 2008
I've never quite got into Sasha, I've never felt like calling anyone a 'legend' and probably the man himself wishes nobody did either! But from the first listen this CD oozes high level production talent and totally draws you in. Lots of interesting changes and grooves to ensure it doesn't lack personality or soul like some progressive house can. This is simply a blisteringly good example of a man whose asked for nothing and given something very special which I feel will stand the test of time, and that I guess is why they call him a legend, well earn't I say.

A Cross The Universe

This live version of Justice's best tunes will blow your mind. These guys know their proverbial French musical onions. Merci pour la difference - the sort of feeling i had when i first heard Daft Punk - Discovery. If you don't believe me, just check out the youtube stuff.
