Like all the best Inner World mixes, this mammoth selection works best as an expression of Famous Mammals themselves, their DNA split and re-articulated through 50 other complimentary voices, revealing in its way of all the possibilities within their own sound. Familiar favourites and hidden treasures in abundance here, almost too many highlights to list, though special mention must go to the inclusion of Trabant, a deepdive deepcut that tells you a lot about where FM's heads are at (ie exactly where you want them to be).
