Free Music Notes for Back to Mine

Free Music Review: even better than tracey and ben - inside their heads...
Hit: 5 Stars

confession time - i've loved ebtg since i was turned on to them in college..."driving" was almost a coming-of-age song, and to this day the acoustic (from the album of the same name) versions of "apron strings" or "come on home" still make me smile like a kid... and seeing them live and acoustic in st. paul, mn was one of the best concerts i've ever been to. make sure you take the time to check out their own recordings, to be sure...hell, the cover of "love not money" is worth the price alone, but i'm not sure you can find it in print now...(if you can, ~get~ it, now...)

all that said, when i saw that mr. w. had raided the closet for a "back to mine" collection, i knew it was a no-brainer...if you've EVER gotten a (let me put this in straightforward terms...) really, really (and i mean REALLY) cool little tape collection from a friend/family member, and thought to yourself...wow - this is some damn good stuff...well then, be prepared to be mondo-wowed.

i hadn't heard of a single song on this album prior to its release, but am now a sworn and true beth orton fan ("stars all seem to shine")...and every other track on this will have you grinnin' like you were twelve with skates on, feelin' the flow, doin' the happy funky dance...it's an incredibly "cool" (yes, that's overused, but nothing else really applies here) set of tunes, with a laid-back and funky underlying theme...

the whole "back to mine" series is worth a listen...good stuff all over, but i have to say, this is the best of the bunch (as of 2002, anyway - hope they keep comin'), and if you are a fan of their own songs, you'll love ben and tracey's choices from their own stash, right here.

recommendation - buy it new, open the wine, invite friends, and just grin for an hour or so...

Back to Mine Poster

Latest installment of the successful Back To Mine series. Tracey Thorn & Ben Watt have selected and compiled their interpretation of the ultimate chill out series. Seamlessly mixed by Ben Watt, he invites you into a musical journey though his and Tracey's music collection. 12 tracks. 2001 release.
In a market saturated by mix albums of every description, Ultra Records' Back to Mine series glows like a beacon in a fog of mediocrity. The idea is simple: artists are given a free rein to compile sets that are both intuitive and personal to their tastes, resulting in mixtures of postclub textures chiefly designed for horizontal dancing and chilled-out bonhomie. Latest recruits Everything but the Girl take to the format like ducks to water, displaying a musical pedigree that touches on house, hip-hop, and light drum & bass. Although most people have warmed to the group's shift into dance culture, what will surprise is their sublime choice of tune. Kicking off with the drum-machine jazz of DJ Cam's "Friends and Enemies," the moody hip-hop noir of Deadly Avenger's "Bayou," and their own production on Beth Orton's "Stars All Seem to Weep," the mood is stoner-paced but never drab. Follow this with a little stripped-back ambience courtesy of Carl Craig and a rousingly sanguine finale featuring Donny Hathaway's "Someday We'll All Be Free," and you have the makings of a fine night in. --Paul Tierney
