Let Us Replay! is a double-disc remix album that also includes a few live tracks from Coldcut's innovative world tour. The reworkings benefit from the recruitment of a variety of wide-ranging but very sympathetic figures including Cornelius, Grandmaster Flash, Shut Up and Dance, Carl Craig and Mixmaster Morris. The live tracks are a bit less entertaining and are quite similar to their album versions. ~ John Bush

Professional Reviews

The Wire (02/99, p.49) - "...the record's two extremes provide the highlights....specially arresting amid the digital trickery on display elsewhere..."

Mixmag (2/99, p.105) - 3 out of 5 - "...Cornelius mixes Beach Boys sugar with industrial diesel....The Sycophants' version of 'Noah's Toilet'...is by far the most radical reworking on display..."

CMJ (1/25/99, p.24) - "...expert sound pirates who excel at lifting beats and pieces from other artists and reworking the fragments into a tailor-made aural design....an eclectic album that moves from treacherous attacks to serene, ambient interludes without losing the pair's original concepts..."
