"i cant believe that you all hate this cd itz absolutelly amazing and as for missleadin the album cover only says enrico experience and the all the remix artists the in small print put e. macias. buy yess this is a remix album of french algerian enrico macias. i am a huge fan of electronics dub-esq sounds with real instruments and foreighn singin/instrumentation so naturally i loved this but i am verry picky and do not perfer techno minamulistic garbage, its got to groove, jazz dub electronic hop, & loud thumpin bass. if you are like me and feel that music like this brings in new life to something that may be never heard otherwise. if someone really liked this they might even go and try to check out his other music. i would have to say that all the artists featured on this (except the last to songs which are a bit too techno y for my tast and dont feature much of the french algerian vibe)excecute amazing mix of electrofied dub kronic and the lovelly singin from enrico various guitar/ oud like percussion violin exc. i found out about this record primarelly due to the work of bill laswell who has two mixes on this and are the pinacle of his work and will blow any previous fan of his work absolutelly away, & quaballah steppers who has also worked with laswell on his album imaginatrix also has 2 mixes her & are also absolutelly amazin. i couldnt believe the quallity of the other artists i had never heard of, their mixes are etremelly well place with their own electronic elements and ernico's amazin style. dont be afraid to try this rare gem in the world of horrible electronic mixes and procession this one shines, any fans of laswell's mix of fello french algerian lili boniche boniche dub 1 &2 and his album alger alger that boniche dub 1 was mixes from, wordsound dub gabriel aka quaballah steppers, ebn e sync, laswells imaginary cuba and havana mood, fusion dub fans,"
Total rip-off; misleading title

"This album is a total rip-off. I am a great fan of Enrico, and grew up with his music. I was excited to see this CD with remixes of old time favorites, and I immediately purchased it. I was extremely disappointed to find out that the CD is nothing more than an bunch of annoying, undescribable beats with occasional synthesized melodies of Enrico in the background. I returned the CD for a refund. Don't buy it!"
What a mistake

"I was so excited to find something new, couldn't wait to get into the car to hear it. What a disappointment! I can't believe Enrico's name is on this album. Don't waste your money."
