Customer reviews of Versions

Customer Rating: 
Summary: Quality and interest
Comment: I bought this because I am a musician and composer in a small way and wanted to study the bass, drums an loops. This was helpful for this but I also found it was very entertaining and satisfying listening as long as you are happy will loops. It was an excellent sound and very well produced.
Customer Rating:
Summary: beyond anything you've ever heard
Comment: Thievery Corp is awesome. The amount of layers of sound that fill your ears is overwhelming at times. Almost every time your here this album again you will find something new. They hit so MANY genres of music yet combine them on a single track; thats what makes them amazing. You will not find another sound like them out there, very unique!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Definitly different and interesting
Comment: Wow! I never heard of this group until I was listening to Yahoo! Music Radio and switched to the Dance genre. Actually, the group I heard and was looking for was Kira, or Akira - and I found Thievery. I listened to the samples on Amazon and thought it was interesting enough to purchase their music.
All I can say is, I like what I hear.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Get ready for the ride of your life!
Comment: Spectacular musical journey. When you hear Jim Morrison laying down the voice track from Strange Days to Thievery Corporation music you will flip! Sarah McLaughlan in "dirty little secrets" is bone chilling. It's a ride through style, panache and many, many "wows". Sit down and enjoy!

Editorial Reviews:

Versions gathers 18 Thievery Corporation remixes from across a music spectrum that only the most eclectic could love. The vinyl-popping digital duo embraces '60s psychedelia with the Doors and '60s kitsch with Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass. They put them all into the mixmaster, usually adding the downtempo jazzy electro-lounge beats upon which they built their early reputation. Alpert's "Lemon Tree," taken from the recent Whipped Cream & Other Delights Rewhipped, is a vintage noirish mood piece, but this doesn't always work. Fear of Pop's "In Love" becomes a tedious vamp, and the Doors' "Strange Days" is a missed opportunity squandered on a Cagian "indeterminacy" moment, like two bands in different rooms. But the Thievery formula usually works wonders on even the most unlikely material. There's an Indian twang to many of these mixes, including the Middle East-via-Bombay grooves of Trans-Global Underground, the Indian singing of Ustad Sultan Khan, and the fragile sitar of Anoushka Shankar. Even the tunes that aren't Eastern, like Nouvelle Vague's Euro-lounge "This Is Not a Love Song," get the full Indian treatment with droning tambouras and tabla percussion. I wonder what it says that no matter whether they're using Astrud Gilberto, Sarah McLachlan, or the Doors as source material, it all comes out sounding like Thievery Corporation. --John Diliberto
