Critic's Review
Andy Kellman, All Music Guide
Unless you haven't been paying attention (which would be understandable), you know that Snap!'s core hits -- "The Power," "Rhythm Is a Dancer," "Ooops Up!," "Mary Had a Little Boy" -- have been run through just about every kind of club remix you can imagine. Downtempo, bhangra, trance, filter house, and several other stylistic trends from the past decade have had their way with Snap!, and the results are of interest only to those who really love the group. This German release collects well over a dozen of those remixes and adds a bonus disc containing the original versions, doubling as a greatest-hits set. It has the same track listing as the 2004 Radikal release The Power of Snap!, but comes in packaging that is far more elaborate. If you only want the hits, stick to whatever's cheapest and available. Each Snap! anthology released through 2005 has been some bizarre amalgamation of original mixes and remixes, and they all have the singles mentioned above.
