It's funny that you say you had a song spelled wrong, because so did I except it was a different song. mine was spelled "Bad Cops Bad Charaties".. anyways, I love this EP! does anyone know where I can get the extra songs Dan mentioned you could download from Stolen Transmission? They must've taken them down.

Great cd.......2007-05-13

Most of the tracks are good, but when I purchased it, I saw the the song compliment each other like colors was spelled incorectly.
Not much of a difference, still a good cd!

This Scottish trio offers the most commercial expression yet of the current U.K. obsession with spacey ambient "chill out" music, as practiced by The Orb and Sven Vaith, among others. While much of the dragged-out, slow-paced material here suggests Bananarama on downers, the Stephen Hague remixes of, "Breakdown" and "White Love" say their piece and sign-off quickly. --Jeff Bateman

the great unknown.......2007-07-13

I fell in love with this CD the first time I ever heard it. After this, I desperately waited for the follow up album, but low and behold it never came. Unfortunately, the band never got the audience it so rightly deserved, and they went their separate ways. Now I really like Dot Allison's solo work, but it just isn't One Dove.

If you ever get the chance to hear this CD, you must. It is such a wonderful blend of good beats with great atmosphere. It isn't run of the mill like all the "electronica" (oh how I hate that word) that was big at the time of this release, so it is a pleasant experience. I guess the closest comparison I could give to this CD is Lamb. If you like Lamb, I think you will definitely like this CD. A lost treasure!

Splendid.......2006-10-17

This album represents what came out of the British post-rave scene at its best. This is the only record that One Dove would make but what a record. It has been described as the perfect come-down record by everybody and I suppose it really is. In that sense it is very different from the acid music it is supposed to follow. It is almost the masterpiece that many pretend Screamadelica is. Dot Allison would go on to an interesting solo career but this record is splendid: the laid back playing really suits her smooth voice.

Dreamy Classic.......2005-09-20

I first bought this CD when it first came out years ago, and I listened to it constantly. The music is spacey but not weird, it packs a punch, and Dot Allison's voice is heavenly. During one of my many moves, this disc went missing and I've hunted high and low for it in record shops everywhere. Don't bother with itunes or MSN music, you can probably only find it used online, but it is well worth hunting down. It can function as sex music, nap music or background mood music.

sheer beauty.......2004-04-19

One of my favourite albums of all time. Unbeleivable that this was as overlooked as it was. It's over 10 years old, and still sounds unique and fresh -shame they split up before releasing another album. As much as I like Dots solo releases, they just haven't yet reached (IMHO) up to this seminal piece of work.

Brooding, Eerie, Stylish, Autumnal Electronica................2003-10-30

Thanks to a Recommendation from a friend, this sparkling album is an gradually unfolding emotional envelope of blissful Electronica/Alternative Dance/Ballads & slight Dub. Heartfelt singer `Dot Alison' is the shining vocalist in this inspired collection of Shimmering World music influences "(The Transient) Truth", epic guitar noise "White Love (Guitar Paradise Mix)", and melancholic piano ballads "White love (Piano Reprise)", all sonically linked by a rich production, and an approach to each song, by starting most tracks with percussion instrumentals, and gradually & slowly building and texturing the sound with swathes of sonic colour, until progressing into fully fledged full blown songs of epic structure. But unfortunately the band were to split before recording a follow-up (with producer `Andy Weatherall' pursuing a lucrative producer career, and singer `Dot Alison', releasing a solo album in 1998), so this is your only chance to discover what could have possibly been a defining act of the 90's. and for those that enjoy this album should consider buying singer 'Dot Alison's' solo album.

Amazon.com

Mark Ramos Nishita has a riff or two for every season, which makes Mark's Keyboard Repair, his 30-song, 63-minute solo debut, stocked with enough organ-fueled flavor to get us through at least the next couple decades. Taking time off from his day job as the fourth Beastie Boy, keyman Money Mark has been hanging down in the basement, surrounded by his well-worn and strictly analog Moog, Fender Rhodes, D6 Clavinet, and Hammond organ--and even an old yardsale guitar--setting new standards for the art of noodling. Keyboard Repair is a lo-fi feast of hot licks that conjures Herbie Hancock, Bernie Worrell, Billy Preston, Augustus Pablo, and Gil Scott Heron in an ultraloose swirl that includes nods to '60s breeze pop and acid rock, 70s porn funk and R&B, Santana's Latin groove, art rock, ska, Beasties' hip-hop, and enough action-packed instrumentals to rewrite the theme songs of every cheesy detective show that ever aired. --Roni Sarig

Customer Reviews:

beasties producer goes solo.......2007-05-06

money marks first solo record is filled with quick little 70's inspired nuggets... you can definately hear what the beastie boys did when they hired him to produce their cd... this raw record comes at you quick, and when your done you left thinkin... "was that ingenious or was that toooo easy?" moey mark makes very simple music in a way thats so infectious it can only be labeled as a guilty pleasure... those who bought his first record on brushfire and are lookin for the same will be dissapointed, untill you realize that this is just as good, but in a completely different way...

"Keyboard" needs no repair.......2005-02-10

When he's not the fourth Beastie Boy, Mark Ramos Nishita creates some wicked solo music as Money Mark -- lo-fi, funky, fuzzy, and entrancingly spacey. How to describe it? A colorful, twisted rollercoaster ride through a Hammond organ and Moog, as Money Mark explores every experimental nook and cranny.

It opens with the slow-grinding, chunky "Pretty Pain," before lifting off to mixtures of soul-jazz and funk, done against a blippy backdrop of thick, dense organ and blippy keyboard. Most of the songs are two-ish minutes or under, but somehow that seems just right -- if they were any longer, they would seem stretched out.

And Money Mark also augments the music with jam sessions, bells, thick distortion over droned vocals, lessons on entomology, and sputtering electric organ. It's impossible to describe every facet of Money Mark's sound; it's far too complex, but that complexity never bogs it down. It trips merrily in its colorful trappings, rarely slowing down.

Few albums really mesmerize, never boring listeners with a single song. Thankfully, Money Mark achieved that in "Mark's Keyboard Repair" -- not one song, be it pretty or gritty, gets dull. There's a feeling of delighted anticipation throughout the album -- what will he pull out of his hat next? Acid jazz, or funky electronica? Distortion or organ? Sparkles or sputters?

Since all these songs were originally released as a series of EPs, there really isn't any internal flow. But it feels like there is. There's nothing to link the songs directly, but Money Mark's distinct musical style and unique electro-jazz sound seems to band them together.

Nishita's vocals feature in quite a few songs, but aren't the centerpiece of those songs. Instead, he uses his flat intonations like another instrument, blending them perfectly with his expert use of electric organ and moog, mixed in with basic acoustic jazz. Best of all, he both layers the two sounds over one another, then alternates them -- it never gets dull or simplistic.

Money Mark created a truly unique collection with "Mark's Keyboard Repair." A heady mix of electronica, jazz, funk and experimental twiddles, this is a minor masterpiece.

Flava-filled, funky, delightfully old-skool............2003-08-28

One of my favorite CD's in my collection!!! The vibe of this album has a very analog, organic, old-skool (for want of a better term), and sometimes mellow feel, it's just the disc to listen to with your mahogany console stereo (if you've got the rare UK vinyl pressing of this album) in your den with the red shag carpet & knotty pine paneling, with the naugahyde chairs, lava lamp, and sunburst clock!! :)

My favorite track on the album has to be "Pinto's New Car", with a lot of flavaful groove that leaves plenty left over for the rest of songs on the album.

I also read somewhere that Money Mark recorded these songs long before he met the Beasties when they were recording Paul's Boutique in '89 (and became the 4th beastie boy soon after) to fix a entry gate to their driveway at the mansion that the B-Boys were recording at in Silverlake in LA (Mark is a carpenter by trade as well), so I'm assuming some of these songs on this album are probably around 15-20 years old! All the better... :-)

All of these songs were independently released by Mark on a series of EPs on his own Pinto Records label a while before this album came out, which is a re-issue of these EPs all combined together.

Once again, this is a disc I *highly* recommend...

Hmm..........2002-09-30

How do you describe "Keyboard Repair?" Umm...

...uhh...

...hmm...

Okay, I got it. Hard to pin down, but lots of fun to listen to. A lo-fi sonic adventure. Definitely one of those CDs friends will ask you about.

Great instrumental jam.......2000-06-06

The songs are too short, the organ a little overpowering, but overall, a timeless disc that stays in my CD changer

All Saints CD.......2007-01-09

As promised, I received a new CD case as the original one had a crack in it. I am very pleased with this purchase. Great prices and shipping.

good girl band.......2005-10-25

I loved the spice girls in the 90's but they were for the masses. All Saints appealed more to the r&b/hip hop fans and they were successful for a minute. I Know Where It's At was a hip hop/pop song that had the janet jackson sound to it, but with a british vibe to it. Never Ever was a beautiful, beautiful ballad that was on heavy rotation and who can forget the remakes of under the bridge from the peppers and the labelle remake of voulez vous couchez avec moi ces't soir. I hope shanzay does a solo career cause she wrote most of the lyrics and music on this album and it would be nice if she made a solo comeback cause the group broke up and it doesn't look like they're getting back together

Worth checking out.......2004-07-08

I bought this CD a 5 years ago because I loved "Never Ever". I listened to it off and on, but this year I put it back in my CD player and was surprised to see how well it has held up over the years. "Never Ever" still sounds good, but the other songs sound better than I remember them. Their covers of "Under the Bridge" and "Lady Marmalade" are surprisingly good, and most of the other songs are strong as well.

The Spice Girls comparisons are inevitable, but All Saints stand alone, even though they were never as huge as the Spice Girls in the US.

I recommend checking this album out. It is a good blend of pop and R&B, and it should have been a bigger hit in the US.

A Fairly Solid Debut From A Short-Lived Rival Band.......2004-06-22

In the 1990's the Spice Girls were the No.1 female girl group. They dominated the charts all over the world for three years and became iconic superstars in the process. Naturally, you always get imitators who come along and try to repeat the success of the original and best - but never quite succeed. A British girl band called the All Saints nearly achieved this in 1998 with their self-titled debut album. The Spice Girls were compared to the Beatles in terms of worldwide appeal and a level of insane mania that hadn't been seen in decades. Then the All Saints came along to rival them, almost in a way that the Rolling Stones did for the Beatles. So these two girl groups were symbolic of two 'boy' groups that ruled the 1960's.

Bands like the Spice Girls and the All Saints are big reasons why the 1990's will always be my favourite decade for music. In England the All Saints released their debut album at the back end of 1997 and it went on to sell almost 2 million. Their debut single had just gone Top 5 and they were gearing up for the release of their second single which would go on to become one of the most popular break-up songs of the decade. They were seen as a cooler, more hip version of the Spice Girls. They were older, wiser, more mature, and their music had a certain artistry to it that the Spicies never possessed. Infact, in Britain, for a short while in early 1998 it seemed like a backlash against the Spicies was setting in whilst everyone favoured the All Saints...

The debut album from the All Saints opens with that infamous classic ballad "Never Ever." It opens the album in fine style, and clocks in at six and half minutes of pure vocal bliss. The song made it to No.1 after months on the chart and spent something like seven months in the Top 40, selling more than 1 million copies. Shaznay Lewis wrote the song and her true talent is revealed here. "Bootie Call" was the fourth single to released from the album and became the girls' third consecutive No.1 UK single. This is as raunchy as the girls ever got, and it quite indeed. Simmering beats bubble over the saucy lyrics and deep vocals to make a hot and sweaty R'n'B/pop hybrid classic. "I Know Where It's At" is where it all began. The debut single from the girls, this is a very catchy slice of pop perfection that made them a hit. "Under The Bridge" was the girls' third single and a cover of the Red Hot Chili Peppers' original. It's no way as good obviously, but I like the funky R'n'B edge that is brought to it. It was the third single to be taken from the album and went straight to No.1 - the video is bad though, gives me vertigo!

"Heaven" opens mysteriously before breaking it down with a hip bass. This is a mid-tempo number that doesn't quite get off the ground, but it's very mature and was very fresh at the time of its production. "Alone" begins off well with a stop-start beat and the chorus makes this even funkier. The beat is very catchy and the chorus is sung in a very stylish and cool way. "If You Want To Party (I Found Lovin')" is a song that follows a similar style to the girls' debut single with a great party vibe and cheesy pop synth! You hear people cheering in the back like it's in a club - very typical of the time it was made. "Trapped" and "Beg" are purely filled to keep the album afloat, but they are the real downers on an otherwise class album

"Lady Marmalade ('98 Remix)" is the second of two cover versions on this album and was released as a Double A-Side along with Under The Bridge in May 1998. Of course, the song went to No.1 as I said before. The girls make this version very poppy and funky - one to definitely get your groove on to. Having said that, the version that Christina Aguilera and co. did three years later is much better! "Take The Key" is another filler and rather disappointing, but is redeemed with the smashing and beautiful ballad "War Of Nerves." Shaznay claimed she wrote this song around the time of Princess Diana's death in August 1997. This was the fifth and final single to be taken from the album and made the Top 10 in the UK. I love the video and this is an overall great song to unwind to, and a fantastic closer to the album.

OVERALL GRADE: 7/10

The All Saints were a very photogenic girl group. Melanie Blatt was often considered the sexiest, whilst the sisters Natalie and Nicole Appleton just stood there and look pretty. Because of this, Shaznay was often the least popular member of the group when in reality she was the driving force behind them! She wrote those awesome lyrics, and had the best voice. It was obvious that with inflated egos and a battle between talent that the girls would split up, and they did in early 2001 just a few months after the release of their sophomore album "Saints And Sinners." Their success was short lived as a group, but the All Saints will definitely be one of the most remembered bands of their generation.

Very good debut!.......2003-07-05

I have always thought of the All Saints as the RnB version of the Spice Girls - they wore trainers instead of platforms and wore tracksuits and hoodies instead of midriff tops and mini skirts. But they were just as good (coming from a Spice Girls fan), with a fantastic debut album. My rundown:

1. Never Ever
This version of the song is soooo long! But it's good for a debut single, and I love the piano in it. Good chorus too. 4/5
2. Bootie Call
I love this song! It has such a cute name! Lol, apart from that, this song has cool music and I love Mel's vocals. 5/5
3. I Know Where It's At
I never really liked this song, although it is quite cool. I like Shaz and Mel's voices. 3/5
4. Alone
This has cool vocals from Nat and Nic, with a cute chorus. 4/5
5. Under the Bridge
I love this! It's a cover of the Red Hot Chili Peppers track, and it's fantastic! I just LOVE the guitar opening (and closing), and Mel sounds brill on the first verse. Nic (or is it Nat?) sounds good on the second verse and Shaz steals the show at the end. The best on the CD. 5,000,000/5
6. Heaven
This is very soft sounding and chilled out, with a great chorus and complicated lyrics, which I don't understand. But it's good. 5/5
7. If You Want to Party (I Found Lovin')
I don't like this song very much - party songs don't appeal to me a lot, but it does have cool music. 3/5
8. Trapped
This is such a cool song!! It has cool music and I love the funny lyrics - "she looks in the mirror and sees someone old" - very cool. 5/5
9. Beg
This is very funny - the girls are making a friend who betrayed them beg. I love the sentence at the end of the song - "today's letter was B and the word was Beg" like in Sesame Street. Very cool. 5/5
10. Lady Marmalade
This is a 1990's version of Christina A, Lil Kim, Mya and Pink's version except with All Saints singing on it. Naughty lyrics but great vocals. 5/5
11. Take the Key
I don't like this song very much. It's too chilled out for me. 2/5
12. War of Nerves
This song pulls on your heartstrings, with GREAT music and vocals from Shaz and Mel. 5/5

Favourite songs in order:

1. Under The Bridge
2. Bootie Call
3. Trapped
4. Heaven
5. Beg

Overall, a high quality debut that goes down in history as being the alternative to the Spicies for RnB fans. Very good.

Two Great Albums..BUT.......2007-03-16

I don't know maybe it's just me but..I think they should have coupled "You Know Who You Are" with "City Nights" instead of "Frequency" just because..you put the first 2 albums together instead of the 2 & 3rd..makes more sense to me which is the only reason why I give it 4 stars. Still though..it's good to see "Frequency" on CD anyway since "City Nights" is already available (Remastered). NOW..how about putting "You Know Who You Are" out on CD!!!!

Nick Gilder its about time.......2007-02-04

You want beats? How about two CDs' worth? Platinum Breakz II, the latest compilation from Goldie's Metalheadz crew out of England, hits the drum & bass spot--again and again and again. Disc 1 boasts a few subtleties: Hidden Agenda's two tracks have jazz-noir overtones, the flute samples on Peshay's "On the Nile" venture into acidic territory, and Dillinja's coda, "Promise," takes a chill pill. The second platter gets things down to business, however, with noteworthy tracks like the spacey "Swift Glide" from Optical (a.k.a. Matt Quinn) and the trippy "Melt" by Sci-Clone. For fanatics of breakbeat, these discs should be a quick fix. For the rest of us, things get a bit blurry, and there's a danger of OD'ing. --Jason Verlinde

innovation.......2005-03-31

1997, possibly the best year for drum and bass, was the year of this fantastic compilation featuring the brightest producers of the day via Goldie, including J Magik, Adam F, Optical, Peshay, and Dillinja.

Is this better than volume one? It's a little darker for sure, but I think they are similar in many ways, extensions of each other. Both are prime examples of a maturing sound in it's prime.

my first drum n bass set!!!.......2003-11-17

This is a nice set it has some nice clean beats with some special drum n bass djs I still listen to it up till today some of my favorites are J-Majik, Peshay, Sci-clone, Chainsaw, Dillinja, Source Direct, Codename John, and Adam F. They do a nice job with there talent. Well if I was to say anything else about this set, is DON'T LET PEEPS BORROW IT. Cause I did and only got one disc back and now I can't find this set in stores but its all good I guess I still enjoy the second disc! Well anyways this is my very first set I ever had that had to deal with drum n bass, and after this I started to listen to trance then house music now I am back to this kind of stuff drum n bass I just love it!

Good but still not quite the first.......2003-10-13

I don't know how many of you bought and were hooked on the original 1996 Platinum Breakz but I was and while I did like this cd it had a lot of tracks that didn't quite meet the sophistication and creative intellect level that the first did. They did play with a much darker sound and it worked out pretty well on tracks like Arabian Nights, Raven, and a few others but some of the tracks seemed very cheesy and sloppily thrown together (ie disc 1 track 5). It also had a Your Sound remix which I think J Majik would have been better off either adding a bit of melody & subtle sickbass or just leaving alone and not remixing it. It's still cool to listen to, stilla part of Metalheadz history if you wanna stake your claim to it but I'd still recommend the original Platinum Breakz or the other 2 post 2000 ones first (just got Metalheadz 03' today and it wasn't all that bad).

The sequel is never as good as the first..........2003-05-28

And that seems to be the case here too. Now, don't get me wrong, this 2cd pack of Londons finest is not a bad album at all. In fact, it is one of the best DnB collections ever, but still, the first PB was way better so be sure to get your copy of that first.
All in all, if you're craving for more after the first Platinum Breakz-comp. (and who wouldn't be!?) this is a good choice. If you're new to DnB, get Platinum Breakz I and let that one impress you.

we go and then we come back.............2000-03-23

Drum and Bass doesn't get much better than this - Most of the tracks here are a delicious blend of dark but uplifting basslines and tearing beats - i'm no connossieur of Drum and Bass or Jungle but this is the best i've heard - The Bassline to Ed Rush's "The Raven" is at once chilling and exhilirating and the menace of "The Warning" has to be heard to be believed - in contrast other tunes such as "Reportoire" and "The Nile Song" are light, jazzy and melodic. Do yourself a favour and buy it!

This is one of the Greatest Hip Hop albums EVER! I have both the cd and vinyl. What more can I say?

Classick ish!!!!.......2006-05-12

If I ever lost my copy, I'd gladly pay the 50 bones it goes for. This LP was such an inspiration to me and it is one of my all time favorite Hip-Hop LPs. The production on this album is so dope, but if you're reading this review or looking this up... you already know.

how is it possible?.......2006-02-09

what kind of record company dispute or personal beef is keeping this improbably genius album from being reissued? for shame!
