The Mix was a double album of Kraftwerk remixes and re-recordings of previous material released in 1991. The band had recently returned to live touring after a 9 year hiatus and The Mix almost served as a sort of live album with the band using updated digital arrangements of their original recordings.
Predictably the album received a mixed reception especially from the established fans (rather like Can's Sacrilege). Personally I think it's a great album which refreshes some of their best old tracks and stands proud in its own right within the Kraftwerk discography. With significant reworkings it's much more than a Greatest Hits album. The track selection is excellent and I love the mathematical perfection, when I'm in the mood:
1 The Robots
2 Computerlove
3 Pocket Calculator
4 Dentaku
5 Autobahn
6 Radioactivity
7 Trans Europe Express
8 Abzug
9 Metal On Metal
10 Homecomputer
11 Music Non Stop
Worth getting as a primer if starting out on Kraftwerk? Yeah, I reckon, why not.
