Packed with their own productions and remixes, Smith & Mighty’s volume in the DJ-Kicks series does a very good job at blending beat-heavy tracks with the pair’s occasional experimentalist flair. Including the early Bacharach covers “Walk on By” and “Anyone Who Had a Heart,” plus a remix of another longtime pop classic (“The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face”) and tracks by other Bristol massives like DJ Krust, DJ-Kicks showcases the Smith & Mighty production team better than Bass Is Maternal. – John Bush
