Amazon.co.uk Review
Is there a more perfect musical metaphor for Nip/Tuck's themes of deeper-than-skin neuroses and narcissistic surgical reinvention than the chic chimera of a club remix? Josh Gabriel and Dave Dresden, the dub savants behind contemporary club successes that include Andain's "Beautiful Things", Motorcycle's "As the Rush Comes" and Sarah McLachlan's "Fallen," conjure up a nigh-seamless soundscape of haunting textures and percolating beats here, forcefully pushing the envelope of what a smart song-score can be in the bargain. Their rhythmic reinvention of The Engine Room's theme for the show, "A Perfect Lie," sets the cynical, haunting tone, with Gabriel and Dresden employing a sensibility that's both more mature and austere than their typical club work. G&D infuse that consistently entrancing sensibility to material as diverse as the cool-jazz of "Angels" by Wax Poetic/Norah Jones, Daniel Ash's stripped-down reinvention of the standard "Fever" and the retro-disco of Client's "Price of Love." If it's a triumph of style over substance, it's one that musically underscores the show's similar themes with grace and ever-detached elegance. --Jerry McCulley

5 out of 5 stars Wonderful   December 14, 2004

This album has an excellent mixture of up-tempo music and slower more melodic music. and the whole album just seemlessly flows from start to finish, which means you can listen without skipping tracks. It features music from the first and second series so chances are you won't have heard some of the music on this cd, but it makes me think that they will release a 'vol.2' when the second series is released, which I will be buying the day its released. This album though has inspired me to buy Norah Jones' album, Wax poetic's album and Chungking's album and if Poloriod had an album I'd have that as well. I can honestly say this is the only compilation album to make me go out and buy a load of music I've hardly heard of. Simply Brilliant.

4 out of 5 stars Very good soundtrack and all round compilation cd   August 25, 2005

Well the show is absolutely great, and this soundtrack is superb too, the only problem for me was that I couldn't remember when I heard these songs in the show, however most were used in season 2 rather than season 1.

Well the cd begins with the longer version to the show's title theme, 'A perfect lie' by Ther Engine Room. Which is a great song, however it does drag on for a bit, the shorter version which is actually the last track on the disc is far better. The second track 'So Damn Beautiful' is a brilliant song, it also really suits the 'Nip/Tuck theme, that and track 3 by Norah Jones are really good songs for their particukar genre.

For the more dnace like tracks, both 'Cosmopolitian' and 'Price of Love' are really good, however the best track on the cd apart from 'Elvis' by Alpha, is ChungKing's fantastic track 'Following' which truley is the most beautiful song I've heard in years. All round some are bad, some are good, but the good ones are really really good. Exactly it deserves four stars
