This is a bit of a different mix-up album. Be warned it only has five tracks, which makes a big difference how you approach after hearing it once. While most discs like this would have about four times the tracks (going through every break, etc) this one breaks the whole mix down into five distinct parts, lending each track its own specific feel. Sometimes it's funky and pumped up like the first track, then it settles into some extremely repetitive beeps and blips and whoops and becomes almost two much at one point, but thankfully differs up later on after 'Mars Needs Women'.
I don't tend to think of this disc in individual track terms, I can barely remember who they mix up on here, though several Chemical tracks appear given a serious makeover.
Recommended for fans of the Brothers, others might opt for the Crystal Method's Community Service discs.
 A very "mixed" album April 30, 2005

If you're a big Chemical Brothers fan, then this disc is for you... but ONLY after you've bought ever single other album they've released!
"Brother's Gonna Work it Out" is a couple of beautiful highlights (particularly the last track of the album, which features some material very reminiscent of the brothers' version of Mercury Rev's "Delta Sun Bottleneck Stomp") surrounded by grungy, annoying loops of early 90s electro squished awkwardly over grungy, annoying loops of late 70s hip-hop and house. Bland beats and two-note bass riffs roll over and over and over with irritating squeeky synths blathering away in a different key on top for a hauntingly large portion of this album. It's too dissonant to count as "music", but too pointless and repetitive to count as "art".
Avid fans who are after a few rare CB tracks can find "Morning Lemon" and "Not Another Drug Store" on the 2CD version of "Singles 93-03", which should definately be purchased well before attempting to digest this album.
Having said that, there are a few sub-tracks on this CD that are very cool indeed, but listeners must be prepared for a long haul of badly DJed rubbish around them.
Impressive! August 30, 2004

I have read about this and sounded intrigued about hearing Tom and Ed's rare DJ sessions combined onto this album called 'Brother's Gonna Work It Put'. It was very wicked how they combined every song together so you would never notice that the track number changed. I loved how the song Brother's Gonna Work It Out silently builds into 'Not Another Drug Store (Planet Nine Mix)' and I thought the Micronauts Mix or 'Block Rockin' Beats' was ACE (I've always been impressed with what The Micronauts could do after hearing their remix of 'Bruce Lee' by Underworld). A lot of these other artists I have never heard of when you get to tracks two and three. I was anxious to hear how 'Morning Lemon' was used in the mix. It pretty much sounds the same if you've heard it on their Singles album, but it makes it unique on the DJ Mix album. It starts off through the high-pitched sound effects of the last song and ends with the building up of 'Mars Needs Women'. Morning Lemon along with other songs like 'Come With Us' and '(The Best Part Of) Breaking Up' have been some of the most wildest songs I've heard from The Chemical Brothers. Brother's Gonna Work It Out is DYNAMITE! GET IT!
Buy it for the Manic's remix track August 5, 2004

This is one of the very rare places you can hear the Chemical Brothers remix of "Everything Must Go" by the Manic Street Preachers. The Manics best-of CD release "Forever Delayed" came out without this track - so the only other place to hear it is on the Manics' original 12" vinyl release (mega rare) of the single "Everything Must Go".
Enjoy!
