Review #40: Promo Only: Dance Radio February 2008

Reviewed on 1.26.2008 (Review #40)


Yeah it’s about that time again! Promo Only Dance Radio February 2008 iz HERE! And this iz tha 3rd review I did today, lol! I’m looking forward to this (hopefully it’s good), and I just downloaded so many games yesterday for Nintendo systems (to play on my computer), and I gotta think of which one I’m gonna play for this CD… Hmm… Start Time: 9:40 PM | Video Game Playing: Adventure Island 3 (for Nintendo) (on my computer)


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.
 
© 2008 CD Review (Review #40) reviewed on 1.26.2008 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.


01. Basshunter “Now You’re Gone (Radio Edit)”
I hope this iz good for a 148’er. Hopefully it’s nothin’ heavy rock or some shit like that. High AL, and very curious to why Ultra Records signed this!! >>> Yes it sounds nice and trancey! Great way to start off tha CD and to not disappoint me. :tu :tu My Rating: 4.5


02. Britney Spears “Piece Of Me (Tiёsto Radio Edit)”
Fuckin’ love tha original! It’s a song about all that she goes through. She’s been goin’ through so much shit lately, so tha question she asks iz “do you want a piece of me?” Bimbo Jones mix iz tha main dance mix I play, which iz nice and pop-dancey, so how will Tiёsto do his thang?? >>> Not bad, but it’s actually good, and real good interlude music after tha chorus! :tu Shit they cut out tha “pissin’ me off” (tha word “pissin”) just like wit tha Bimbo Jones one. Yeah Britney can’t even get tha groceries in without cameras on her! :( And I’m feelin’ this mix. A great way to attempt to counterattack tha Bimbo Jones mix. My Rating: 4.2


03. Jupiter Rising “Wicked (Trevor Simpson Radio Edit)”
Aight got good news for this song: I thought I wasn’t gonna hear it ‘til it got on here, but it looks like MTV Jams (that plays urban videos) might’ve added tha original version ‘cause 2 dayz ago on MTV Jams, I saw some new video (with no ID yet), and it kept saying “wicked”, so it might be this joint (EDIT: No, that was Brick & Lace “Love Is Wicked”). Anyway, High AL. Been waitin’ to hear it. I think MTV Jams added it ‘cause it was a lil’ on tha Reggae style wit tha vocals. >>> Music iz a lil’ soundin’ like “4 In The Morning (Thin White Duke)”, but pretty good so far. She sounds like someone different again. This time, singer Res from 2001. Sounding good once again. Go Jupiter Rising! BTW, I don’t think this was tha MTV Jams one. I’ll have more info on that in tha future. My Rating: 4.0


04. Mary J. Blige “Just Fine (Moto Blanco Radio Edit)”
Really feelin’ tha original! It’s all about being posititve! Let’s see if this remix iz tha same! >>> Nice lil’ slow start and then after tha “whoooo!”, it goes to tha faster music. :tu Pretty good hit mixer. I think tha original iz a lil’ better tho. My Rating: 3.8


05. Ralph Falcon “Break You (Cube Guys Radio Edit)”
Heard “I Need Someone (Cube Guys)” about 3 hours ago on MCD, and I was thinkin’ about gettin’ to hear this! Let’s hear some more hot music!! >>> I’m feelin’ it. Always gotta feel tha Cube Guys’s beats. :tu :tu Good follow up. :tu Ooh a lil’ “Funkytown” sample in tha music! :tu :tu Oh and fuck this Adventure Island 3 game. I keep dying in it… My Rating: 3.8


06. matchbox twenty “How Far We’ve Come (Rosario & Craig J Rock Royalty Radio Edit)”
I’m not really lookin’ forward to this ‘cause this iz not my style, and it’s old. I got my license on 8/23/07, and I remember this song coming out during a driving lesson I took, lol. *Switches game to Diddy Kong Racing for Nintendo 64 (on my computer)* >>> Cool beat intro for me. Oh wow it passed my expectations a lot. Tha chorus iz a lot slower than tha original, but that beat iz bangin’. This remix iz bangin’ to me. :tu My Rating: 4.3


07. Hi_Tack “Let’s Dance (Radio Edit)”
Aight I just called up my dude Jimmy The DJ (I HOPE he calls back). If he calls back while I’m playing one of these songs, I’m pretty sure that song’ll be REAL lucky. Hopefully he hits me back. *Looks @ Song No. 7* Oh yes a “Hi”gh AL, and a comeback! >>> Not bad so far. I’m really in tha mood for this CD, and it’s just makin’ me in a good mood. :tu Real nice beat to me, and tha vocals were okay. My Rating: 3.7


08. Jordin Sparks “Tattoo (Jason Nevins Radio Mix)”
Not only iz this a nice fast hit mixer, but it looks like this hit mixer went pop. :tu One week after iPR added it last month, Z100 got it! :tu Even tho I’m mainly playin’ her new song wit Chris Brown “No Air”, at least this’ll emerge into my playlist now. :tu >>> Ms. American Idol. :tu Vocals are even slower on this too. Yeah it’s a great hit mixer. :tu My Rating: 4.0


09. Colette “If (Dave Audé Radio Mix)”
Oh no… Boo… This will always remind me of that day where I had tha beef wit that asshole at my college, and “jerk-off” Jeff Gumbs was laughin’ his ass off at me. >>> Beats are aight for DA. BTW, MCE used to play this song a ton of times (it kinda calmed down now), and MCD only plays it at night/early morning. Nothin’ that special about this mix, especially since it’s DA’s mix. I’d rather hear tha “plain” original. My Rating: 3.1


10. Funkerman “Speed Up (Radio Edit)”
That’s exactly what I’m doin’ in Diddy Kong Racing. :wink: High AL, and was originally supposed to PorD it. >>> Not only am I fuckin’ up in tha game I’m playing, but that song fucked up my expectations. :( My Rating: 2.7


½time: A real good start, but it’s gettin’ wobbly. :( I hope it can regenerate itself! Tha end of tha CD at least caught my attention a lil’ more.


11. Lori Jenaire “Love Is Like An Itching In My Heart (Eddie Baez Radio Edit)”
Like her name, tha title, and tha label (Dauman Music). Can DM have another great song on their hands?? High AL!! >>> Nice lil’ start. Sounds like some old Thunderpuss type of dance music from early in tha 2000s. I like tha “ill take tha pill” line. :tu It didn’t really meet my expectations that much, but it was better than tha previous song. My Rating: 3.6


12. Celine Dion “Taking Chances (Jason Nevins Remix)”
PO Error: There’s no “e” in Ralphi Rosario (EDIT: PO Error again: It’s tha Jason Nevins Remix, not Ralphi Rosario Radio Edit). Anyway, High AL ‘cause I really like tha chorus and this mix might make me give it a :tu. Originally dumped on my PorD due to she changed to an Adult Alternative sound… >>> I was just about to say it was slow, but I remember now; it’s 120 BPM. It sounds more like JN. Feelin’ it. :tu My Rating: 3.8


13. Mick Jagger “Charmed Life (Solitaire Radio Edit)”
I don’t know what to really expect. I guess I’m not going to like it. >>> What iz this shit??? Fuck… This iz what happens when I don’t get a phone call back! :x :x :x It did have a good interlude tho. My Rating: 1.9


14. Crystal “Numb (Remix Radio)”
Okay this must be one of tha BANGERS! Love tha artist name/title, and after one year of PO waiting, Neutone Recordings iz back wit another one (last one was on tha 2/07 CD wit “Conditioned”). VERY HIGH AL for this one!! >>> Good intro, and yeah, its gotta be good ‘cause it’s after a really shitty song. Oh fuckin’ wow (in a good way). It’s a REMAKE to Linkin Park’s 2003 song “Numb”! :tu :tu Gotta luv tha Neutone shit! :tu My Rating: 4.7


15. Dave Armstrong & Redroche Feat. H-Boogie “Love Has Gone (Full Vocal Radio Edit)”
PO Error: They forgot to put tha vocalist! Anyway, this song doin’ big on MCD (heavy rotation added), and now it’s like a 20% chance they add an actual dance song into heavy rotation. Feelin’ this one right here. :tu :tu >>> I know I have tha same Radio Edit, but my version sounds a lot better ‘cause it sounds louder and has a real nice surround. Oh yeah forgot to mention that I love tha beginning wit that beginning verse! :tu My Rating: 4.2


16. Chanel “Dance (Fish & Chips Radio Edit)”
Got a High AL. Will it top off last year’s No. 16 song (“Embrace Me”)? Gonna put it to tha test wit this comeback! High AL!! >>> Lol @ that short length. Lol @ that sample in tha background. “If This Ain’t Love”. Now we’re really talkin’ about tha early 2000s. Gets my :tu. My Rating: 4.2


17. Madison Park w/Paul T “All About The Groove (Klubjumpers Radio Edit)”
Another “w/” in tha ID (hasn’t happened since “Mustapha”)! That gives me some AL, along wit tha mix. Even tho KJ are on tha mix, I just hope it ain’t too rocky ‘cause that’s what my guts are tellin’ me… … … … … … >>> Unexpected female vocals and tha song came on so fast. Feelin’ this (thank God)! :tu :tu That chorus keeps comin’ on, and it keeps makin’ me like it. My Rating: 4.4


18. Fragma “Toca’s Miracle (Inpetto Edit)”
I got a High AL for it ‘cause I wanna hear what it sounds like again! Oh yeah for tha 3rd time: Early 2000s got it on lock on this CD! >>> *Quiet voice* Nice and smooth start. Very nice for tha Winter, lol. Nice smooth music. My Rating: 3.5


19. Krista “Weakness Of The Body (Josh Harris House Edit)”
I dunno if this iz gonna sound stupid or anything, but I actually had caught a teardrop (lol) thinkin’ about this song on PO ‘cause it’s UNSIGNED!!! I hope my teardrop can predict this UNSIGNED song to do its thang! First PO song wit a MySpace label ( http://www.myspace.com/kristacansing ). VERY HIGH AL for a 122’er!!! >>> I’m guessin’ it sounds like a Freestyle type of song. Actually, when I saw tha “House” in tha mix, I was afraid this was gonna be house, but good thing it ain’t. Gets tha good rating for me, and I’ll be lookin’ forward to playing it. :tu My Rating: 4.6


20. Ida Corr vs. Fedde Le Grand “Let Me Think About It (Radio Edit)”
FUCKIN’ LOVE THIS SONG!!!
It never gets old! It’s on Week 16 on my playlist. Oh yeah, and tha last CD had “Uninvited”. That song was DOMESTICALLY new (signed to Ultra). This CD has “LMTAI” and they put it as an import (still UNSIGNED in tha U.S.). Lol @ this: we go from an UNSIGNED song to an IMPORT. Wow this iz hot! It’s a lil’ old tho, but everybody loves it! >>> That fuckin’ beat! “Da-dun-da-dun-da-dun-dun.” Oh yeah, if you’re wondering what’s that extra verse in tha beginning? Well it’s tha MCD mix (they have a Club Mix shortened). Oh no why are they makin’ it so mixed up? Not likin’ all tha mix ups/shortened parts. They should’ve just gotten tha 1st mix that’s 2:40. Wow what a fucked up RE. :( My Rating: 3.0 (it got a 1.7 deduction; if it was tha 2:40 one, I would’ve given it a 4.7 rating)


Overall: End Time: 11:37 PM. I thought this CD went by too quick. It had some bangers, but a bunch of songs tricked me. :( If only I got that phone call… And I waited 72 hours too. :roll: Anyway, I’m REALLY lookin’ forward to PICKing songs for March tho!

Review #36: Promo Only: Dance Radio January 2008

Reviewed on 1.01.2008 (Review #36)


Watz good it’s about that time again! Promo Only time! This iz tha latest I’ve reviewed one of these CDs, but it was worth tha wait I guess (at least for tha South Side Crew song)! Let’s see how we do on this one. Here goes my review for Promo Only Dance Radio January 2008. BTW, HAPPY NEW YEAR! Start Time: 11:27 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.
 
© 2008 CD Review (Review #36) reviewed on 1.01.2008 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.


01. Cascada “What Hurts The Most (Radio Mix U.S.)”
This iz tha BIGGEST dance song of 2008! I noticed at about :30 there’s no kick-in beats (unlike tha one I have). Gotta luv tha change up style throughout tha whole thing!! :tu :tu My Rating: 4.8


02. Natasha Bedingfield “Love Like This (Johnny Vicious Radio Mix)”
Okay (on tha nice side), it’s growin’ on me! Especially tha original! I still think that Sean Kingston should be in it. I mean, most of tha time it’s rappers cut off. He’s a singer… Not bad for a remix. :tu Yeah tha bridge (when it’s just NB) sounds kinda dumb. SK’s part was better! My Rating: 3.7


03. Freemasons Feat. Bailey Tzuke “Uninvited (Radio Edit)”
This song ALWAYS has that fresh quality sound! FM NEVA give up on their style!! Boo there’s a different interlude! :td :td That would be a deduction, but it’s a flat rating due to tha hot music and vocal combination. My Rating: 4.0


04. Linda O “Wherever You Are (Chris “The Greek” Panaghi Radio Mix)”
I gots a High AL for this new joint. Let’s see how she can do wit a follow up. I predict a remake, but I’ll laugh if it’s a Laava remake. >>> Kinda long of an intro (but that’s okay), but it sounds pretty good. :tu My Rating: 3.9


05. Bellatrax Feat. Sophia May “I Can’t Help Myself (Sunfreakz Radio Edit)”
MCD added it not too long ago. Looks like they like it for a low rotation song. I got a High AL on this. Hopefully it’s good enough for my playlist! >>> Sounds good, and a pretty good chorus too. :tu Yeah this iz pretty bangin’. Gotta feel it. :tu Looks like it’ll set tha bar a lil’ for 2008. :tu My Rating: 4.1


06. Taylor Dayne “Beautiful (The RJ Radio Edit)”
I predict a good follow up to tha “Featureless” song. This one’ll prolly do big in tha dance scene. High AL! >>> Not bad for a start. I thought it was goin’ to be better. Can it gain some power? I saw a Scotty K Radio Edit somewhere. That’ll prolly do tha job. There’s nothin’ really in this mix… At tha end of tha bridge, it sounds like tha intro to Sean Kingston “Take You There”. That’s prolly what makes it a lil’ better… My Rating: 3.6


07. Astrid “Be Your Own Hero (Doug Emery Radio Edit)”
This better be good. I hope for female vocals, but that might not happen. *Gulp*… >>> Ooh I was correct about hoping for tha female vocals. Not bad for a start. I’m feelin’ it, although tha beats should’ve been a lot faster. This would’ve been good if tha song was fast. This might grow on me for tha future, but for now, it’s good. Better than tha Taylor Dayne song. My Rating: 3.7


08. The Cheetah Girls “Fuego (Ranny’s Radio Edit)”
Let’s see… Disney style… What should I expect? Maybe it’ll be mind-blowing… >>> Slow beats, but off to a good start. :tu Yeah this be soundin’ good. Nice comeback to tha CD! I like all them cities and shit. :tu Looks like an unexpected club banger! :tu Enjoyin’ that chorus. Glad to see it was unexpected (like I predicted). :tu My Rating: 4.3


09. Justin Timberlake & Beyoncé “Until The End Of Time (Mike Rizzo Radio Edit)”
This song iz real slow for me, even tho it’s okay. MCD plays tha Johnny Vicious & DJ Escape mix, but I bet’cha Mike Rizzo’s iz better. Let’s see a comeback for Mike Rizzo! >>> I didn’t get to listen to tha JV/DJ E mix really, but I can tell this one sounds a lil’ better. It’s still super-slow tho. My Rating: 3.4


10. Tomi “BABYGETDOWN (Soundpusher Remix Radio Edit)”
*Gulp* (Before checking tha title) What iz it again…? *Checks* Oh yeah! It’s a High AL! I like that CAPITAL LETTERS TITLE ALL IN ONE WORD, lol! >>> Hopefully it’s good… … … … Sounds like it’s goin’ to be cheesy or good… Sounds a lil’ like JT… Even tho this song’s a lil’ dirty, I don’t really see interest in it. :td I don’t think tha title should’ve been in CAPITAL LETTERS IN ONE WORD. If that was tha case, there should’ve been some SCREAMIN’! My Rating: 2.4


½time: There hasn’t been too many great songs… A bunch of them came out average… Hopefully my hopes are correct for tha South Side Crew song!!


11. Felix Da Housecat “Like Something 4 Porno! (Album Version)”
Unlike that last song, this iz a GOOD cheesy song! It’s funny to me in a way, but I like it. Lololololololol! Lmao! LMFAO! I miss tha good ol’ dayz at my college when my boyz would watch all porn, and I’d be checkin’ it out. Damn, why’d tha 3rd semester have to be such a FUCKIN’ FUCK-UP? I never expected this song to get on this CD! :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl My Rating: 4.0


12. Lexter “Freedom To Love (Radio Edit)”
I Know No. 13 iz big, so this prolly ain’t, so I guess this can pass, but lemme peep it out anyway… >>> Yeah didn’t expect too much. Sounds like Latin type of vocals… :( It even sounds like Bob Sinclar produced it… Which reminds me this must be a song Ultra signed right… Figures… Wow tha beginning of tha chorus iz way too cheesy for me… My Rating: 2.8


13. E-Type “True Believer (Radio Edit)”
I already know this song, but it blows damn near EVERY one of these songs away! Faraway! I feel like this was randomly put on this CD just to make me real happy. Nobody’s gonna probably play this ‘cause they don’t know what REAL BANGIN’ dance music iz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This song has such BANGIN’ music and BANGIN’ vocals! It first reminded me/was big wit me when I had beef wit this dude at college. It was like tha one thing that was on my mind everytime I played this song, but fuck that shit. It’s 2008. Time to give this song a new life, and I’m re-playing it now that it made PO! :tu :tu :tu Oh yeah I always wanted this song to be on one of these CDs and now it iz! :tu :tu My Rating: 4.9


14. Ultra Feat. Chris Willis “Give It All You Got (Bimbo Jones Radio Mix)”
This another banger! No more “Naté” for Ultra! Feelin’ tha BJ music on this one more than most of tha other mixes they do. Gotta feel that music especially at tha end of tha bridge when it does all that shit it does. Really tight! :tu :tu My Rating: 4.2


15. South Side Crew “Free Falling (Radio Mix)”
It’s statistically my Highest AL (along wit Linda O), but this one I got a lot of AL for. Will it be a new style @ 128 BPM? I hope it sounds REAL good like tha previous 2 songs! 1…2…3…VERY HIGH AL!!!!!!!! Oh yeah I predict a remake of Tom Petty’s “Free Fallin’”. >>> Nice for a start. And yeah, of course, just like wit “Cold As Ice”, I guessed correctly wit tha remake. I like how I hear those SSC sounds throughout tha whole song. I guess you can say best 128 BPM song for this CD. Not only iz this “Free Falling”, but how odd; for tha August 2004 POSSD, Track No. 15 was Kat People “Free Falling” (which IMO was a lot better… I had to say that). And I almost thought “Free Falling” was gonna come on MCD as a “rare song”. That would’ve been REALLY weird (tha rare song right now iz Joe T. Vannelli “Prelude” - How sad that that’s a rare song, and “Guilty” (which was tha song that played just before that in heavy rotation still), somethin’ that’s from tha same CD (PODR7/07), iz still playin’…). Tha other 2 SSC songs did okay, but hopefully if this gets out there, it gets more shine I hope. My Rating: 4.1


16. DJ Antoine “This Time (Klaas U.S. Radio Edit)”
I think they spelled “Klass” wrong (they put “Klaas”) (EDIT: Nope, “Klaas” iz right). Either way, this shittin’ thing can go… MCD just premiered a new song Michael Mind “Ride Like The Wind” and it’s a Klaas remix. It sounded nearly tha same, but I think that song iz better than this. I don’t like tha chorus in this… What a terrible No. 16 song! I think sometimes if it’s not No. 16, it’s either No. 15 or No. 17 that’s good. This case it’s No. 15. It’s mixed better than tha Remix Radio Edit I have. I think they flipped tha music parts after tha chorus from my RRE that I have. My Rating: 2.1


17. Hardrox “Feel The Hard Rock (Up To No Good) (Promo Only Clean Edit Radio Edit)”
Lol @ tha 2 “Edits”. Can we get Janet Jackson over here to say “edit” for us? Lol just playin’. I’m guessin’ dirty song No. 3 for this CD. And Nervous Records iz in charge of this. They’ll prolly come through wit a good song. Oh yeah this iz tha 2nd song (Song No. 17 no less) that I’m listening to for tha 1st time @ 1:17 AM (Darnell birthday time) (1st song was “I’m Not Featuring You”). >>> This iz gonna be odd. Uh oh… It sounds like Gabriel & Dresden + Cedric Gervais music combination. How odd… This song iz so weird. I like all those “shut up”s. :rofl My Rating: 3.8


18. Jill Criscuolo “Insane (Masi & Mello Club Radio Mix)”
She’s been on PO before, but maybe this one’ll do good on a first listen. BTW, her last name might be tha same last name as my (I think) 3rd grade teacher. :tu >>> Not bad for a start. I hope I get to like it better… A lil’ odd on tha chorus (which iz like most of them on here), but tha music sounds pretty good. I think I be feelin’ tha verses tho. At least that’s a saver. Hope to feel it more in tha future ‘cause it’s tryin’ to try and grow on me by every second. :tu My Rating: 3.8


19. Gioia “Your Love Is Lifting Me (Higher & Higher) (Josh Harris Radio Edit)”
I HOPE this comeback from former Expose member Gioia can keep tha CD fresh. High AL (might be tha last one for this CD). >>> Looks like tha music sounds pretty good. Then again, I dunno. Something sounds wrong wit this… I hate to say this, but I think this iz tha problem: tha vocals are gettin’ repetitive, and it feels like non-stop or somethin’. :( Those 3 songs from her last album “Expose This” from 2004 were a lot better than this. My Rating: 3.5


20. Annie Lennox “Sing (Moto Blanco Radio Edit)”
Oh no… :td :td :td :td :td Just when I thought there would be some life… I don’t expect a comeback from this either!! Very Low AL! >>> Reminds me of a Gospel remix or somethin’. Tha music iz no less different a lil’ for MB, but nah, not good enough for me. :td 2nd verse sounds a lot like Madonna… That almost caught my attention, lol. My Rating: 2.8


21. David Guetta Feat. Cozi “Baby When The Light (U.K. Radio Edit)”
THIS AIN’T NO “Goodnight Tonight”!!! BOOOOOOOOO!!!! All these songs gave me a headache just now. :( :( :cry: Let’s see this remix… >>> Oh tha same intro threw me off bad, but THIS was tha ORIGINAL one iPR played (and they said they didn’t change their version; maybe I heard wrong ‘cause tha intro)! I really like tha combo on this (from tha Album Version and tha Radio Edit). Nice combo! :tu I was originally gonna rate it low, but due to tha unexpected combo, I gotta give it a nice rating. My Rating: 4.0


Overall: End Time: 1:46 AM. Wow it took me almost 2.5 hours to do this… This CD was bad. I can’t believe it. It didn’t even look good. Hell, it makes December 2007’s look MUCH better! I HOPE February comes through wit some BANGERS, especially FAST ones!
