Becoming Remixed is a remix album by English electronic band Sneaker Pimps, released on 10 March 1998 by Virgin Records.

Walking Zero (Tuff & Jam Unda-Vybe Vocal)". Post-Modern Sleaze (The Salt City Orchestra Nightclub Mix)". Spin Spin Sugar (Armand's Bonus Dub)". Post-Modern Sleaze (Reprazent Mix)". 6 Underground (Perfecto Mix)".

While the Sneaker Pimps don't have the doomed romanticism of Portishead or the nasty experimental tendencies of Tricky, they have a cool sense of pop hooks and an edgier guitar attack than their predecessors. Tesko Suicide" moves along with jagged guitars and rhythms, while "6 Underground" is coolly detached postmodern soul. Becoming X creates an airy, urban atmosphere, and while the record begins to unravel toward the end, it is an exciting, entrancing listen.

This laid back hip pop track, which I am sure many of the readers have heard, features a low, driving bassline, a simple keyboard lick, and above all, Kelli's vocals. The album starts out with that cool bass sound familiar to the Sneaker Pimps on "Low Place Like Home". This repeating bassline/melody is one of the catchiest on the album

This is also the only Sneaker Pimps album where Kelli Dayton(later known as Kelli Ali through her solo career) lends her spunky vocals. and it contributes greatly to the attitude of "Becoming X". The album spawned two successful singles. 6 Underground' is a dreamy down-tempo techno-pop song that drove the success of the album. Spin Spin Sugar' is fast, chaotic, bass-driven trip-hop that could fuel fire. However, every track on this record is great.
