Such a great set! Amazing compilation of music
I love Ace of Base and this set is amazing. It has so many new remixes as well as the original songs (over 300 tracks total) You can tell a lot of work went into creating this box set. Even new vocals on some of the remixes!

Amazon shipping damaged article / packaged poorly
The content of the box set is amazing (hence, 5 stars) -- but Amazon ruined its collector's value my placing it loosely in a bubble mailer. I've noticed fans from other regions noting the same (Amazon UK, Amazon Australia, etc). :(

Amazing boxset of singles
Amazing boxset of singles. A lot of remixes in one box. For me as a collector this is brilliant addition to my collection.

Lots To Explore
There is a lot of content in this singles box set. If you like Ace Of Base I think this is a very worthy package to own. Although it is quite pricy there are 26 discs here with on average 13 - 15 tracks per disc. There is a lot to take in.The singles are expanded with fresh remixes as well as the original mixes and B sides from the original singles. The artwork is a recreation of the original art for each single, there is a booklet with a lot of information about the band and their formation as well as the history of their back catalogue. The overall package is beautiful in my opinion and I’m happy to own it, I’m still trying to get through it all.

Un coffret passionnant
Ce coffret est avant tout destiné aux fans du groupe. Il contient 26 disques, un livret (avec les paroles, la biographie du groupe et de superbes photographies) et six cartes reproduisant des pochettes de singles. Ace of Base est un groupe qui a incontestablement marqué son époque par sa musique mélange de pop, de techno et de reggae. Chaque disque contient plusieurs versions d'un même titre, ce qui reflète bien le travail du groupe. En effet, ils avaient pour habitude d'adapter leurs chansons au public visé et donc un même single pouvait sortir sous différents styles en fonction du pays. On pourrait penser qu'écouter à la suite quinze fois le même titre est lassant mais il n'en n'est rien : les remixes sont tous très différents et très bien travaillés. Bref, un coffret à offrir ou à s'offrir pour presque 25 heures de bons moments.
