Late night tales (2008)/ Groove Armada

"Like all the rest of the series, this CD features music that inspired the compilers, moves them or are just some of their favourite tracks. Based on the longstanding idea of the mix tape personalised for friends and lovers, this offers a selection of some great tunes, resequenced and reedited to form a new mix to listen to in the privacy of your own room. If you like the Groove Armada and '80s electronica, you probably already own most of the tracks on this CD (Depeche Mode, The Human League, Roxy Music, Electronic and The Cure) but it's a joy to hear some of the remixes, particularly of "Elle Et Moi" by Max Berlin and the superb reversioning of Gary Numan's "Are "Friends" Electric" (exclusive to this CD and based on a live track by the boys). There's new as well as old, too. Old, such as Marvin Gaye and Tami Tyrell, Stevie Wonder, and new, Peter, Bjorn and John or Midlake. However the biggest surprise of the album is the almost credible Will Young track, "Friday's Child"." (Susie Goldring, BBC)
