Well I agree that the Rollo/Bliss mixes are usually fantastic. With the
exception of his mix for Tricky's "For Real" I haven't heard too many Rollo
mixes that I can say are bad.
But I also like some of those other mixes. I loved the Van Dyk mix of
"BMFB" but I like Van Dyk's music anyways and this mix was nothing
different for Paul, it had his signature sound so I was bound to like it. I
like the De Donatis mix of "Insomnia" also (not as much as the Rollo/Bliss
mixes though). And then there's the classic Way Out West mix of "Salva Mea"
so I do like a lot of the outside mixes too. The Jan Driver and Robbie
Rivera BMFB mixes were pretty bad though in my opinion.
BUt yes, it is the Rollo mixes that are usually the best. I'm having a hard
time finding a better dance music producer in music today for my taste. His
work on the new Pet Shop Boys CD (another of my favorite groups) is
awesome.
