Errors – Celebrity Come Down With Me
The title of this record may conjure up the possibility of an intriguing new x-rated game show, but the reality is actually a lot more fun; all your favourite (maybe) left of centre bands remixing one of this year’s top albums. Eschewing foreplay, the eight track remix album goes straight for the thrusting bit with the Wax Stag version of Germany cranking up the synths until the dancefloor squeals with delight.
The best tracks here pull the same trick; Mogwai’s groovy take on Supertribe a similar if not quite so eager beast, while the Ceephax Acid Crew take the Justice-esque squelch of Jolomo and bury it behind keyboards so spacey Buzz Aldrin would blanch. Unsurprisingly for a remix record, it’s Errors' electro side that comes out strongest across the piece. All except the Twilight Sad’s turn, the band trim original album opener Bridge or Cloud into a big, fuzzy cuddle of a tune fit only for the post-rave snuggle down. A suitable note to end it all on.
