Review #29: Promo Only: Dance Radio November 2007

Reviewed on 10.16.2007 (Review #29)

First off, happy 19th birthday to my girl Renee! I miss her (haven’t seen her since November 2002). Okay here I am, VERY ANTICIPATED for this PO!!! I already had 2 dreams about it since it was shipped (one was yesterday – I was dreaming that I was reviewing it (wit there being different songs, but stil tha same anticipation)). This CD may look REAL good, but after it’s done, I got a mid-term paper to do, as well as to finish up my Ethics test (only answered 5 out of 52 questions on it – It’s so FUCKING hard!!!) :cry: Anyway, enough wit that… here goes my review for Promo Only Dance Radio November 2007. BTW, I think I only know 3 songs out of 21, so it looks like I got A LOT of treats for Halloween!! Start Time: 8:02 PM


Disclaimer: I rate each song from 1.0 – 5.0; each rating iz my own opinion! I only please myself wit my ratings! I don’t care how lyrical you are, as long as it’s jammin’ enough for me to like it! I look for beats, then vocals, and then lyrics. To determine my favorites, I will differ tha 4.0 ratings. If a song gets at least a 4.0 rating from me, I love it already. If at least a 4.6 rating, I pretty much really love it, as it’s considered mindblowin’ when I hear it! Any song can earn up to a maximum of a 5.0 rating. Anything I type before “ >>> “ iz what I’m sayin’ before I listen to tha song; anything after I type “ >>> “ iz what I think of tha song while I’m listening to it.

01. Erika Jayne “Stars (Moto Blanco Radio Edit)”
Another #1 spot on PO for her. Let’s see her follow up. A lot of high AL on this! I think she’s gonna switch tha style on this one and have more singing, but who knows. Let’s see…!! :arrow: Not bad so far… Yeah I was right about tha switching style. She’s sounding like Paris Hilton on this one. This iz smooth, but I don’t have much to say about it. My Rating: 3.8


02. Britney Spears “Gimme More (Kaskade Radio Edit)”
What’s wit tha 2 “Radio”’s in tha RE? :? Yeah I know tha “it’s Britney, bitch” part iz edited out again (as it’s in my Kaskade Radio Mix), and mines also has a fade outro. This has a cold ending. Mines has 129 BPM, but this one has only 126… And I like how Kaskade did a lil’ different style on this. :tu :tu Also like that part at 2:27: Danger! Danger! Danger!... My Rating: 4.1


03. LeAnn Rimes “Nothin’ Better To Do (Bimbo Jones Radio Edit)”
Let’s see what she has cookin’ up wit tha Bimbo dudes… :arrow: Like that intro, as it reminds me of “Like A Boy” remix. :tu Tha vocals go pretty good wit this, and it can remind me of a lil’ bit of a twist of Moto Blanco music. My Rating: 3.9


04. Yanou “Sun Is Shining (Spencer & Hill Radio Edit)”
High AL. I just hope it doesn’t sound too slow & dry wit S&H on tha RE… :arrow: Feelin’ tha intro, but it’s dance vs. dance. :oops: Not good move by Ultra. :td Tha music (tha BPMs) are bangin’ tho! Other version was better. LOL @ those reggae vocals in this version. :lol: My Rating: 4.2


05. Mischa Daniels Feat. Tash “Round And Round (Original Radio Edit)”
Good move by PO! They put this Nervous song on here and NOT that gay “Soul Heaven” song MCD plays so fuckin’ much… :!: Yeah good vocals, but duplicated “Take Me Higher” music. It still comes out good, even tho tha BPMs may be slower. Really like tha verse!! :tu :!: Too bad iPR plays tha Electro Radio Edit. They don’t have tha verse. It’s too repetitive, and sounds strange. This version gets my thumbs up tho. Tha ending may be long wit that ending beat, but I think it’s still real good. :tu My Rating: 4.0


06. Jennifer Lopez “Do It Well (Moto Blanco Remix – Radio Edit)”
Looking forward. This original version iz tha current US single while “HI,DDI”’s original version iz tha current UK single. :arrow: So fast of an intro. :lol: Tha background vocals are bangin’ in between tha choruses/verses. :tu It gets my thumbs up also. :tu My Rating: 3.9


07. Soulshaker Feat. CeCe Peniston “Shame Shame Shame (David Morales Radio Edit)”
Really lookin’ forward to tha remix! High AL (although tha other version iz prolly better)!! :arrow: Its got that ol’ skool taste to it in tha music. :tu Tha music in tha chorus should’ve been better (it was BANGIN’ in tha other version), but it still sounds pretty good. :tu My Rating: 4.1


08. Bissen Feat. Victoria Gross “Melting (Josh Harris Radio Edit)”
Like tha title. Let’s see what happens when I press “play”… BTW, I’m “melting” as it iz (since it’s always cold/hotter/cold/hotter out). :arrow: DEFINITELY looking forward!! :!: Nice music! :tu Vocals are pretty good, but JH definitely has some HOT music goin’ on here!! :tu :clap: Tha track iz “melting” while I play it. :tu :tu Should be a BIG one wit me hopefully! :wink: My Rating: 4.5


09. Kamera “Lies (Markus Schulz Radio Edit)”
Yeah I got a High AL on this one. I think this iz tha Toucan Cove song? :arrow: PO didn’t wanna admit a :32 intro. :mad: Not sure if I can go wit those vocals, but tha music iz pretty hot. :tu Nice interlude after tha chorus. :tu My Rating: 4.0
EDIT: Naw, tha Toucan Cove song was tha song before this. No wonder why that song was “melting” to death. :shock:


10. Sarah Atereth “It Doesn’t Take Much (Salosso Radio Edit)”
REALLY wanna hear SA’s new song!! Glad to see Salosso on tha mix! Really lookin’ forward wit lots of AL! :arrow: Feelin’ tha BPMs and that tech-house background iz reminding me of “Look On The Floor (Salosso)” mix. I thought this would sound a lil’ better, but it sounds pretty good. Hey, tha bridge sounds pretty good. :tu My Rating: 3.9


Halftime: So far so good. I know there are some HOT BANGERS coming up (songs that are better than ALL those songs I just reviewed excluding “Melting”). Let’s see… REALLY looking forward!!


11. Yves Larock Feat. Jaba “Rise Up (Radio Edit)”
Hope it’s a great follow up to “Zookey (Lift Your Leg Up)”. High AL! :arrow: Yeah good music in tha beginning! :tu Vocals remind me of “Let’s Get Down” by Supafly vs. Fishbowl. That music has more of a nice summer feel to it. :tu My Rating: 4.4


12. Backstreet Boys “Inconsolable (Jason Nevins Radio Edit)”
Highest BPM goes to… BSB!! :oops: :oops: Not really looking forward (low AL) . :( Oh wow iz this gonna be this bad? I just lost tha player (Music Match) that I’m using to play tha songs right now. Ha ha ha ha ha ha…. :arrow: :oops: I like all tha BPMs (that nice fast music), but how am I supposed to get into a BSB track? Sorry… maybe if Soul Seekerz remixed it (which I think they did), or somebody a lil’ better, then maybe there’ll be interest. My Rating: 2.6


13. Kimberley Locke “Band Of Gold (Almighty Radio Edit)”
Cheesy title, but hopefully it sounds like a pot o’ gold for another hit mixer in a row. :arrow: Nice kick-ass intro. :tu :tu It sounds like a remake, but it’s also sounding like a HOT hit mixer! :tu DEFINITELY deserves it’s MAJOR PROPS from me. :tu My Rating: 4.7


14. Stephani Krise “Fallen (Radio)”
Statistically, this wasn’t my Highest AL (more on finding out how I figure out what my Highest AL iz statistically later). However, this iz my HIGHEST AL, and I hope it doesn’t suck ass, flop, sound like shit, etc. etc.. It better sound REALLY good! VERY HIGH AL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :arrow: Tha music sounds original, and pretty smooth so far… I sure am turned on by it… :) Hopefully I’ll see some sort of music video of it soon. Vocals and music are real nice. I WISH, WISH, WISH I would rate it higher. :( My Rating: 4.4


15. Collage “I’ll Be Loving You (Chris The Greek Radio Mix)”
Hope this sounds good for a 2007 version. Maybe it’ll have “Because The Night (Remix)” music in it? It should since it’s Amathus/138/CTG on tha mix. High AL. :arrow: Lol @ tha exact intro pretty much & chorus to “BTN (Remix)”. Yeah it sounds real nice wit “BTN (Remix)” music in it. :tu Real nice lil’ bridge interlude. :tu It will get that good ranking from me, although I would say tha original iz a lil’ better. My Rating: 4.2


16. Sylvia Tosun “Head Over Heels (Warren Rigg Radio Mix)”
Looking forward to this one (new label too, and I like tha label name)! High AL! :arrow: Real nice piano in tha beginning, and nice fast intro. :tu Oh yeah this mix seems to be Tony Moranless. :( As always, whether it’s TM or WR, tha music ALWAYS has it goin’ on! REAL nice vocals too!! :tu :clap: :!: I think this might be tha top choice for me on this CD (#16 like usual :wink: ). My Rating: 4.8


17. Filo & Peri Feat. Eric Lumiere “Anthem (Radio Edit)”
REALLY looking forward to this “anthem” and Vice’s Radio Edit of it!! High AL again!! :arrow: Okay vocals. Nice lil’ music. I’m glad there were no words in tha chorus (I just knew that for some reason). Nice lil’ rock interlude, lol. Oh so I see we have it as an “anthem” for a few things. Nice ending wit all those hot beats. :tu Gotta feel tha “anthem” parts. Makes me like tha song more! :tu :tu My Rating: 4.1


18. Samantha Jade “Turn Around (Bimbo Jones Radio Edit)”
Never really got to play tha original, so I’m hoping this hit mixer helps for it. :arrow: Different intro for BJ. It should’ve had a sweeter beat, but it’s still pretty good (especially after tha chorus). Feelin’ this nice “slow” jammer turned into a “faster” jammer. My Rating: 3.8


19. Janice Grace “Frequency (Jason Nevins Dance Radio Edit)”
Like tha title, and I like tha label too (another new one, Jaguar). Rah rah (lol j/p – just playin’). Anyway, let’s see what happens wit this one, wit JN again on tha mix. :arrow: Yes, again feelin’ tha different style of tha mix. :tu Yeah this iz definitely sounding great and different, so it gets that big :tu from me. :tu :clap: :!: Oh at 2:50 I heard some “Soundz Of Freedom” music in tha background. Nice mix. But this iz a REAL HOT banger!! :tu :!: Nice ending too! My Rating: 4.5


20. David Guetta Feat. Chris Willis “Love Is Gone (Fred Riester & Joachim Garraud Radio Edit)”
Lol @ it being near tha end. Why… everyone be playin’ it. I think this iz kinda late to be on here, but it’s still good. :tu Gotta feel it ‘cause it’s BANGIN’! :tu :tu Nice lil’ “Love Don’t Let Me Go (Walking Away)” type of music! WAY better than tha original! :tu My Rating: 4.2


21. DJ Scotty K Feat. Knockhopper “Goodnight Tonight (Radio Edit)”
Dauman Music be puttin’ out a lotta shit lately! :tu Statistically, this was supposed to be tha Highest AL (due to length, label, and artist givin’ it lots of AL). REAL long, so hopefully REAL good (just as long as SK’s remix of Plumb’s “In My Arms”’s, which iz like 4:48 long). REAL HIGH AL on this, and I HOPE we end it BIGGGGG!!! Oh yeah, I guess I should say this too… “goodnight tonight” ‘cause tomorrow’s almost here! :arrow: Yes again wit that HOT SK music!! :tu :tu 3rd LONG intro from him (prolly 4th ‘cause I forgot what Henri’s “When You Walk Away” sounded like)!! :tu :tu Not bad on tha vocals, but that music iz very consistent, and has it goin’ on in all tha parts of tha song! :tu What a very long music interlude, but very nice! :tu Real nice 2nd verse start wit tha music!! :tu :clap: :!: REAL nice on tha song! Tha music had it goin’ on throughout tha whole song non-ST-ST-ST-ST-STOP!!! My Rating: 4.3
EDIT: Wound up becoming my favorite song of tha 2000s!!


Overall: End Time: 10:05 PM. That CD had it goin’ on ALL THA WAY!! Just one SHITTY song (tha BSB one), but other than that, it was great. That’s because it was mainly DANCE, and not much on tha POP side!! :wink:
