This is a collection of remixes and interpretations of the work of People Like Us. People Like Us: Vicki Bennet. Remixes by: Coil, Negativland, Death In June, Barbed, Christoph Heeman, Bruce Gilbert, Stock, Hausen & Walkman, Rehberg & Bauer, Mika Vainio, Boyd Rice, Dummy Run, Farmers Manual, Sons Of Silence. This all-star remix affair finds an impressive selection of sound artists and musicians paying tribute to cut-and-paste comedienne Vicki Bennett's enduring, endearing Plunderphonic People Like Us project. Distilled from a European two-CD edition, HATE PEOPLE LIKE US is a satisfying collection. The maid of honor supplies "PLUlinks," brief tracks that provide both sample sources and segues, sewing up all the diverse remixes into one tidy package. Such sympathetic outfits as Negativland, Barbed, and Dummy Run/Stock, Hausen & Walkman play (relatively) straight with People Like Us's formula for kooky cut-ups of pirated dialog, music, and sounds. Others, including microsonicists Rehberg & Bauer and digital assassins Farmers Manual and Bruce Gilbert, treat Bennett's music in a far more deconstructive fashion. The best efforts, such as Boyd Rice's leering take on human sexuality, Sons of Silence's "illbient" outlook, the artful acoustic sculpture of Christoph Heemann and Mika Vainio, the doomed aura of Coil, and Death in June's forlorn Euro-folk feel, impress the remixers' own agendas upon Bennett's ambiguous narratives and collage works.
