Puffy's first remix album. Not too much else to say; in general, those who did the remixing stuck to the popular singles, aside from the remix of "Always Dreamin' About You," which is a definite highlight of the record. Some of the remixes keep the basic structure of the song more-or-less intact ("Circuit no Musume/the readymade JBL mix '99," "Kore ga Watashi no Ikirumichi/the readymade;darlin'of discotheque track," "Asia no Junshin/Sgt. Tosh Mix"), while other songs are nearly unrecognizable ("Nehorina Hahorina/Bad Attitude Mix"). The rest fall somewhere in-between.

The disc, like most of Puffy's early work, is now out of print.

This was actually the first Japanese Puffy album I owned; it was given to me as a Christmas present by a friend. However, I'm not a fan of remixes in general, so this (and, by extentsion, PRMX Turbo) gets played the least by me.

  • "Circuit no Musume (the readymade JBL mix '99)" and "Ai no Shirushi (Captain Funk's Puffy de Samba Mix)" are the only two tracks from this album to have been released in the U.S. (to date): the former is a bonus track on the U.S. release of Spike, and the latter is on the An Illustrated History compilation.
  • "Ai no Shirushi (Captain Funk's Puffy de Samba Mix)" contains a sample of Fatboy Slim's "Everybody Needs A Carnival." It also ends with a sample of "Puffy de Samba".
