The Best Mixes From The Album Debut For All The People Who Don't Buy White Labels - Composition

Composition

The EP, totaling 41 minutes and 41 seconds in length, consists of six remixes of four different tracks from Björk's 1993 album Debut. Each of the tracks were written by Björk except "Human Behaviour", which was co-written by Nellee Hooper. The collection begins with the English electronic group Underworld's remix of "Human Behaviour", totaling twelve minutes, seven seconds in length. According to Allmusic's Neg Raggett, the swing "stutter" of the original recording's percussion is replaced by "crisp disco" beats and high tempo funk loops. The track also features samples of Björk's vocals and ends with a piano performance. The remaining five tracks are remixes by The Sabres of Paradise and Black Dog. The second and sixth tracks are both remixes of "One Day" by The Sabres of Paradise; the "Endorphin" mix is five minutes, ten seconds in length and the "Springs Eternal" version is nearly twice as long. The "Endorphin" mix features light piano and lightly reverberated vocals by Björk over a slow beat, while the version which closes the EP includes more upbeat, "crisp" electronic percussion. The collection's fourth track, The Sabres of Paradise's remix of "Come to Me", features heavily reverberated vocals by Björk which echo over a "quiet" collection of beats. Black Dog's remix of "Come to Me" has been described as "Arabic/techno fusion". Their version of "The Anchor Song" includes a short loop and an a capella vocal section half-way through the track.

Famous quotes containing the word composition:

    Since body and soul are radically different from one another and belong to different worlds, the destruction of the body cannot mean the destruction of the soul, any more than a musical composition can be destroyed when the instrument is destroyed.
    —Oscar Cullman. Immortality of the Soul or Resurrection of the Dead? The Witness of the New Testament, ch. 1, Epworth Press (1958)

    I live in the angle of a leaden wall, into whose composition was poured a little alloy of bell-metal. Often, in the repose of my mid-day, there reaches my ears a confused tintinnabulum from without. It is the noise of my contemporaries.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Those Dutchmen had hardly any imagination or fantasy, but their good taste and their scientific knowledge of composition were enormous.
    Vincent Van Gogh (1853–1890)
