One Dove's Breakdown EP features five mixes of the song Breakdown. It is one of the highlights of the brilliant Morning Dove White record. Two of the mixes of Breakdown available on the EP turned up on the album. The glittering Radio Mix was remixed by Stephen Hague and shows the band at their most straightforward and poppy. Dot Allison sounds positively blissful as she swoons her way through the sad lyrics. The Cellophane Boat Mix as remixed by William Orbit is almost as glossily wonderful and featured more moody, dubby breakdowns including an acoustic guitar break that sounds lifted right off of Primal Scream's Loaded. The other mixes of Breakdown are William Orbit's Stereo Odyssey and Stereo Edit, which is a shortened version of his Stereo Odyssey. All three of the Orbit mixes are remarkably similar, making one wish that they had brought in another mixer to get a more varied sound. Still, any misgiving one might have about the EP are tossed out the window when Andrew Weatherall's epic Squire Black Dove Rides Out mix begins to unspool. He breaks the song down to the bare essentials, adds some truly bin rattling bass, trashcan drums and some Augustus Pablo-style melodica. Weatherall was riding a peak of his creativity around this time and this mix is one of his masterpieces. It is definitely worth hunting down the disc just for his mix alone. ~ Tim Sendra, Rovi
