© 2007 CD Review (Review #20) reviewed on 6.18.2007 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.

















01. Hilary Duff “Stranger (Vission vs. Audé Edit)”
Why this as tha first song? No offense, but this iz one reason what’s wrong wit dance music today: dance stations are tha first ones to play tha first single and/or tha follow up singles from NOT dance artists? I think that’s gay... lemme re-hear this... :arrow: Tha music sounds kinda weird... iz this even tha same version I heard on Party 105? :? Yeah this sounds different... I think this has a better beat, although Party 105's version was a lil’ better. Not bad. My Rating: 3.8

02. De Souza Feat. Shena “Guilty (Radio Edit)”
I’m GLAD Ultra signed, and I’m GLAD it’s on here!! Finally get to hear tha WHOLE intro!! :D :D :arrow: Ooh I like tha extension on tha kick in part!! :D LOVIN’ THA MUSIC A LOT!! :D :D Hmm... this RE iz different, but better than tha one I found on Clubland. :) My Rating: 4.0

03. Rihanna “Umbrella (Seamus Haji & Paul Emanuel Radio Edit)”
Jay-Z ain’t in this... PO Error #1. As for SH&PE mix, this iz NOTHING like “My Life”. This iz more like a mainstream sound... (since Music Choice Hitlist got it). This remix iz okay... nothing special since its beat iz nothing like tha original (which iz REAL good, especially during tha chorus). My Rating: 3.7

04. Meck Feat. Dino Lenny “Feels Like Home (Dave Audé Radio)”
Tha vocals don’t really catch you really until you hear tha MUSIC in this one! That music will CAPTURE you easily!! :D :tu :clap: BANGING!!! :clap: Oh yeah my favorite part of tha whole song iz tha line “I got your hand in my hand/hand in my hand, feels like sand.” My Rating: 3.9

05. Ciara “Like A Boy (Bimbo Jones Radio Remix)”
I had tha Soulseekerz Radio Edit since tha beginning of March, and I wasn’t too impressed, so let’s see if this mix iz good... :arrow: Hmm I guess this iz a lil’ better... I’m feelin’ it. This sounds better for a Bimbo Jones remix tho. My Rating: 3.8

06. Mon A Q “Daydreamin' (Lenny B Radio Edit)”
Here’s tha first High ALer: :arrow: Feelin’ tha chorus, and I’m slowly feelin’ it... Tha lyrics and subject iz also good too. :tu My Rating: 3.8

07. Kat DeLuna Feat. Elephant Man “Whine Up (Johnny Vicious Party Radio Remix)”
Glad to see a remix, and wit 131 + JV on tha mix, it has got me wit a High AL! :) :arrow: Wow I’m feelin’ that KICK-IN a lot before tha chorus! :) Tha music sounds kinda repetitive, except for that KICK-IN before tha chorus, but other than that, it’s hot! :) My Rating: 3.9

08. Kelly Clarkson “Never Again (Dave Audé Radio Mix)”
It actually grew on me a lil’, but something like this would prolly do under 5 spins a playlist wit me... :arrow: Tha surround doesn’t sound good on this... it’s better when it’s without surround. Tha chorus iz good tho. Good “hater” anthem. :wink: Really, I think Kelly needs to give up that “hard rock” shit that she does... she needs to go back to “Miss Independent” girl... My Rating: 3.6

09. Nelly Furtado “All Good Things (Come To An End) (Kaskade Radio Mix)”
Wow 3 borderline songs in a row... and why Kaskade’s mix? They should’ve put Dave Audé’s... low AL, even tho tha original iz slow itself. :arrow: :cry: Wow a much worse intro... :cry: Wow Kaskade makes this pretty sad... unlike DA who actually makes tha sadness into HAPPINESS wit his HOT music!! Well I don’t have to worry about this shitty remix hittin’ my sources ‘cause ALL MY SOURCES got DA’s MIX!! :!: Ooh yes it’s almost OVER so Tim Deluxe’s song can finally come up!!!!! My Rating: 1.3

10. Ellee “So Delicious (Erik S vs. Eddie Arroyo Dance Radio Mix)”
Artist & Label are tha same here... let’s see this one... :arrow: Pretty weird a lil’ in tha beginning, but around 1:40ish she vocalizes, and I’m feelin’ that! :) My Rating: 3.9

11. Tim Deluxe Feat. Audio Bullys “Let The Beats Roll (Radio Edit)”
High AL, and even Vice made a nice compliment about it in tha PO thread. :arrow: Feelin’ tha music, and tha artist on tha Feat. sounds like Audio Bullys... yeah this has a lot of catchiness to it. :) My Rating: 3.9

12. Greco Roman “Mama Used To Say (Radio Mix)”
120 + Amathus? :? I’m afraid... :oops: :arrow: Only :48 in, and my opinion iz “what iz this shit???” Amathus you’re A LOT BETTER than this... *waits for Galaxy 68, South Side Crew, and Jimi La Lumia to kick this song’s fucking ass!!!!!!* My Rating: 1.0

13. Enrique Iglesias “Do You Know? (The Ping Pong Song) (Ralphi Rosario & Craig CJS Radio Edit)”
Tha original iz slightly growing on me wit that great chorus, and if you’re wondering why in ( ) it’s “ping pong”, that’s because in tha original, parts of tha beat iz made from a ping pong ball bouncing back and forth on a game of ping pong. Anyway, not sure of this remix. Let’s see... :arrow: Feelin’ tha intro, and yeah that chorus!! :) :clap: GLAD to see EI back, ESPECIALLY since he made a song wit rapper Lil’ Wayne also! I HOPE that High AL song gets released (it’ll prolly be 2nd single??). I’m feelin’ tha CHORUS MORE on this!! :) I love that line “to know that tha lock on tha door has changed.” :) :) I was a lil’ weird before I listened to this ‘cause RR&Craig CJ did tha “Irreplaceable” remix on tha Feb CD, and that was bleh. Anyway, My Rating: 4.0

14. Joe T Vannelli “Prelude (Optical Funk Radio Mix)”
I see he’s back, even tho I didn’t really know who he was... he just had a rare song on MCD. :arrow: Already :56 in, and it looks like this iz going to be some slow trance. :) No wonder why it’s called “Prelude”. I’ll give it a thumbs up. My Rating: 3.8

15. Ne-Yo “Because Of You (Sunfreakz Radio Edit)”
Feelin’ tha music, although it’s a duplicate of “Counting Down The Days”... My Rating: 4.0

16. Corenell vs. The Lisa Marie Experience “Keep On Jumping (Radio Mix)”
High AL... will we have another #1 16th song? :arrow: I don’t know... pretty good I guess, but it won’t be my favorite on tha CD... nice house song. My Rating: 3.7

17. The Underdog Project “Girls Of Summer (Benny Benassi Radio Cut)”
High AL ‘cause I FINALLY get to hear it!! iPR had it for 7 weeks now... :arrow: Glad to see UP back, and this iz not bad. I don’t think this sounds nothing like BB tho... My Rating: 3.8

18. Rockell “Playin' My Love (Radio Edit)”
Even tho 125 BPM, I have a High AL for tha new Rockell!! :arrow: Nice intro. Even MORE AL. :) Glad to have her back also! :tu :) Really feelin’ tha music! This gon’ be a banger!! :) My Rating: 4.0

19. Drea “Free (De Lorean Radio Edit)”
My highest AL for this 137, DL on tha RE. There hasn’t been a 137 BPMer since I think tha June CD wit “Tracking Treasure Down”... I have a feeling this iz going to be a Cascada type of beat since it’s on Rob Mayth’s label. Also, I think this iz going to be a Ultra Naté remake. :arrow: Nice so far, and I DON’T THINK it’s an Ultra Naté remake!! :D :D This has to be tha best one on tha CD!! :D :D My Rating: 4.0

20. Gwen Stefani “4 In The Morning (Thin White Duke Edit)”
I was feelin’ tha original a lot, but then comes this shitty remix... :roll: Well, at least “Free” iz tha last ACTUAL good and ACTUAL dance song on this CD, so now I’ll just have to keep tha letters B, L, E, and H in my head for this song and tha next 2... lemme re-hear this tho. :arrow: Shit what a slow ass intro... they really fuck up tha chorus. :( My Rating: 1.4

21. Amy Winehouse “Rehab (Desert Eagle Edit)”
I didn’t expect this song to make any PODR CD ‘cause of its high BPM... I got 145 BPM on this, and it says 146... I think this iz too late for this to appear on this CD... c’mon. My sources have had this song for months now... and my brother just got out of rehab no less... either way, I love tha chorus, and I really like AW herself. :) Oh yeah, forgot to mention that I love tha lyrics. I’m a lil’ sick of this song now, but I guess it should get an automatic 4.0 rating... My Current Rating: 4.0

22. Avril Lavigne Feat. Lil’ Mama “Girlfriend (Lil’ Mama Remix Edit)”
*Gets In A Sarcastic Mood* 164 BPM!!!!! A 22nd SONG ON PODR!!!!! And A “REMIX EDIT” in tha ID (haven’t seen that in a while)!!!!! *Gets Back To Regular Mood* It figures... I think August ‘05 CD had 22 songs on it, but it’s more like Lil’ Mama took over this remix ‘cause she raps on all 3 verses... that’s odd for a “feat.”. Anyway, she’s got some fast-hot rhymes tho, but if you heard tha original, I’m sure you’re tired of it. How’d this get on here instead of on PO Urban/Rhythm Radio CDs?? :? I posted some dance remixes of this song on Clubland, and they got really good/fast music... too bad one of them didn’t make it on here. :cry: My Rating: 3.9


Overall: That felt like a good CD, although there were too many borderline, and there was no need to extra fill tha CD... :roll:
