Kittenz and Thee Glitz

Reader Reviews
When i popped 'kittenz and thee glitz' into my c.d player for the first time, my jaw dropped.I have written a list of the tracksshowing the great and the odd boring track. 1.harlot-the first track started and i wasn't sure. Old fashioned trumpets and a french voice(i figured it was miss kitten)introduces it. The tune was unleashed and it sounded a bit off beat.Then, out of nowhere the drums kicked in brilliantly resulting one of my favorite songs on the album! 2.Walk with me-This is a nice, chilled out song, but can get boring after a few listens. 3.Analogue city- This would have been one of the best songs on the album, if it wasn't one minute and 20(ish) seconds long. Still, maybe its better left as it is. Brilliant, haunting, and quite sinister for felix.Still i love it. 4.-Pray for a star-Probably the worst song on the album.But really, its not that bad, but doesn't quite fit the style of the rest of the album. 5.Voicemail-Apparently this is a genuine voicemail of miss kitten, but sounds a bit acted out.Maybe its just her accent.Anyway, its a good introduction to her vocals that proceed. 6.Madame hollywood-I think this album would have suited 'devin dazzle and the neon fever'(Felix's follow up to 'kittenz') better, as it focuses on hollywood and glamour, similar to the rest of the songs on that album.Overall, its a great song, with great lyrics. i like how it merges with the next track with the snapshots of a camera being the last beats. 7.-Silver screen shower scene- This is one of the best songs, if not the best, on the album.I was dissapointed though, because i heard the 'static revenger' remix and it was brilliant.After hearing that,this version seemed a bit plain.But when felix's vocals and the string breakdown kicked in towards the end, it gave me a different view of the song.Brilliant! 8.-Control freaq-This is a stomping dancefloor groove, that will get your head nodding-This is more than similar to 'watching cars go by' from 'devin dazzle'. I love the radio static part and it tunes itself back in. Awsome. 9.-What does it feel like?-I don't usually listen to this track, because i have to admit, its a bit boring, and miss kitten does'nt seem to have put much effort into this track.She could at least sound a bit more enthusiastic!But, it could just be her accent! 10.Happy hour- Wow. i wasn't expecting this.It is absolutely one of my faves! it is a great tune laid back beats and a feel good vibe.This is a bit of a chill out song and it really gets you a good mood for the rest of the day(and night!)Blast this one till your speakers crumble!! 11.-Thee enter view(inside thee glitz) This is an ok interview but is a bit short to actually be interesting.It does, however, let you know about all the people involved in the making of the album.If you listen carefully, you will hear 'glitz rock' in the background.by the way, does anyone know what harrison crump says at the end that makes them laugh? cos i don't have a clue, it comes out in a robot-ish voice. 12.-Glitz rock-This is the most 80's song you will find on 'kittenz and thee glitz'.It starts off great, and finishes off even better.I love this song and sounds great played loud.The bass is tremendous!! It sounds like daft punk! 13.-Sequel2sub-Whats with the name of this track? oh well, this is a fine song that always gets me tapping my foot to that extremely catchy keyboard ditty.This would have been my favorite song of the album.The reason it isn't is about 2 minutes and 10 second in, the drums that were once really nice, into horrible prodigy-style thuds.Its a shame it would have been a worthy addition to the album otherwise.I hope Felix will do a remix of this gettin rid of those awful drums 14.Magic fly-This is a pointless cover of a band called space(or something like that) its a bit boring but has a nice bit of drumwork. 15.She lives-I don't like this rack very much its not particularly enjoyable to listen to.You will usually find yourself skipping tracks 14 and 15. 16.Runaway dreamer-This is a really good tune, but could have done with a drum beat.It is best listened to alone. 17.Silver screen shower scene(laurent garnier remix)-I own the uk special edition, so the bonus tracks are different to most people.They are much better.This version of silver screen is ok, but doesn't mach the original. 18.Harlot(justin robertson remix)-i like this a lot.It is great how they took quite a nice song and turned it into this sinister groove.It doesnt sound like harlot in any way (except for the lyrics), and should be recognised as a song in its own right. 19.-What does it feel like?(royksopp return the sun).Royksopp, the band who made the catchy 'poor leno' could have done a lot better than this and ends the album in poor fashion.If i had it my way the album would have ended with the harlot remix.This song sounds like a slow version of mr oizo's 'phat beat'.On a positive, it doesn't sound like 'what does it feel like', the only simmilarity is the lyrics. So there you have it.If you like any dance music that ranges from The prodigy to mylo, this album is for you.If youve stepped up on the dancefloor and gotten your groove on just ONCE! You need to own this album.Not enough people have been lucky enough to experience Felix's unique sound, and this is the masterpiece that won the awards and got the critics hearts beating.I can't stress enough how brilliant this album is!! its probably isn't possible to. Just go to the top of this page and buy it? what have you got to lose.Apart from a measly couple of quid that absolutely worth every penny!! Seriously! you'd have to be an idiot not to!! Ill leave the decision down to you. Spread the word. Peace out. Ryan
