Der Band sucht aus den Blickwinkeln der Sozialen Arbeit, der
Sozialpolitik, der Verwaltungswissenschaften und der im Umbau der
Sozialsysteme hereingeholten Wirtschaftswissenschaften eine Bilanz
hinsichtlich der heutigen Steuerung der Organisationen im
Sozialbereich zu ziehen. Was sich daraus fur das Selbstverstandnis
des Sozialmanagements und seine zukunftigen Entwicklungen ergibt,
wird kritisch beleuchtet und theoretisch zu begrunden versucht.
Having made a considerable splash with their remixing work in
general as well as their well-received first self-titled album, the
duo of Lindstrom and Prins Thomas returned with a companion piece
to that, pulling off the neat trick of making their own remix
collection. Reinterpretations is part compilation, part showcasing
of new work, as the various alternate takes that make up most of
the disc surfaced on various singles, while the concluding "Nummer
Fire En" -- a twenty-minute monster that might almost be a response
to LCD Soundsystem's "45:33" -- and "Nummer Fire To" appear on the
separately released EP of that same overall title. Unsurprisingly
enough, Reinterpretations isn't that far removed at all from its
core album in terms of sound and impact, but things are generally
far more geared to active listening and dancing here -- the
never-never land of exuberant, global dance from past decades
reworked and shot into the present is the base. Or rather the bass,
as the spare but perfect part on the opening 12" mix of "Turkish
Delight" shows -- the song itself becomes a ten-minute long
masterpiece and should fairly be called the definitive version, its
extended breaks bringing out the details in everything from the
softly echoed breaths to any amount of further polyrhythms. From
there the collection hits one inspired height after another, with
standouts including the shuddering electro/house kick of "Mighty
Girl" (when the lead melody first shifts from piano to a separate
synth line, it's absolutely breathtaking) and the elegant swing of
the alternative "Boney M Down." A low-key but fun touch lies in the
name of some of the alternates -- "Claudia" here becomes "Claudio,"
"Feel AM" "Feel PM." It's a tiny detail but as with the duo's work
in general, it's the small things that add up to something special.
