The World Wide Message Tribe – Revived

Description

Revived is a compilation album by the British electronic dance music combo The World Wide Message Tribe, independently released in the UK on Movation in 1996, marketed and distributed in Europe by Alliance Music. Also released on Warner Alliance in the US the following year (featuring a different track list as well as different cover artwork), a division of Warner Bros. Records, a Time Warner Company. Featuring the very best of Take A Long Hike and Dance Planet, plus bonus tracks and re-mixes.

The latest Tribe offering is a compilation album with a difference. Full of remixes, radio edits and some new tracks, ‘Revived’ is well worth the crinkly, folding stuff! The music is bang up to date with a melodic, Euro type feel on tracks like «Reach For Heaven» and «Peace» whilst still retaining a harder edge on others – «Maximum Level» and «Alleluia» spring to mind. Elements of reggae, dub and drum and bass are in evidence in «Revival» which sits well alongside the more phat-funk, club-style tracks like «Get God». Excellent packaging and top notch production are a Tribe hallmark and ‘Revived’ does not disappoint. One of the most appealing aspects of WWMT is their ability to reach out to the youth culture with a style of music that is fresh and vibrant. They are not just making a carbon copy of secular music and then ‘Jesus stamping’ it, they are bringing originality, class and radical truth to a confused and media hyped genre.
