    5 out of 5 stars Must-have for the Towa Tei fan.......2004-01-25

    Well it would be hard to top that other review, but I'll make an attempt. This album is called "Best of Towa Tei Works" because not all of the tracks were written by him, but they were all produced by him. There are a few tracks that are found in the same form on "Future Listening" (Luv Connection, Batucada, Technova and Obrigado), the rest are either remixes or tracks that he produced for other people (a couple tracks sound like hilarious Japanese gangster rap!) There is another Towa Tei release called "Best of Towa Tei" which is just tracks from his albums, but be sure that this is a totally different release. I have been a fan ever since the first Deee-Lite album, and I've never been disappointed with his releases (Although all of his releases have at least one or two clunkers). Here is a tracklisting if you're wondering:

    1.Luv Connection
    2.Now Romantic (Album Mix)
    3.Kick and Loud (Geisha Girls)
    4.Technova
    5.Son of Bambi (Walk Tuff radio edit)
    6.Amai Seikatsu (Slightly different from album version)
    7.(Japanese title that I can't read) -Geisha Girls
    8.Now Romantic (San Francisco mix)
    9.Batucada
    10.Blow Ya Mind (I Love America)
    11.Blow Ya Mind
    12.Wine Red
    13.Technova (Opaz Remix Edit)
    14.Luv Connection (Allstar R&B Connection mix)
    15.Obrigado

    5 out of 5 stars Masterful collection........2002-12-27

    More Serge Gainsbourg than Derrick Mays, Japan's Towa Tei skirts conventional wisdom about musical definitions with a healthy sense of humor uncommon in the oft-strictly segregated world of electronic dance music, where drum `n bass is drum `n bass and is not to be confused with the disparate genre of house. On "Towa Tei / Best / Korea," juxtaposition has never been more comfortable or delightful.

    A Korea-only compilation of Towa Tei's more popular songs selected personally by Towa Tei himself for the Korean audience, "Best" is a titillating and heady freefall through a cosmopolitan of music styles. It features female singers from all over the world including vocalists Japan's UA, Australia's Kylie Minogue, and Brazil's Bebel Gilberto, surrounded in Tei's aural pastels painted in bossanova, house, and even funk. A sexy but chic master of the cool uptempo, Tei's finesse shines on hits like "Luv Connection" and "Happy," while "Obrigado" and "A Ring" glimmer with the warmth of a João Gilberto love song.

    To finish off the irresistibly delicious assortment of songs culled from Tei's discography that make up this collection, is the classic dance club hit "Groove Is In The Heart," which, with Deee-Lite's Lady Miss Kier and A Tribe Called Quest's Q-Tip on vocals, launched Deee-Lite and Towa Tei into the stratosphere. Without a doubt, a near-impeccable compilation of a truly inspired producer's best, "Best" is a must-have for any fan of electronic dance music with an interest in thinking outside the box and above the clouds.
