Comin’
through nice and early, here goes a REALLY anticipated review for “Promo
Only: Dance Radio September 2010” Start
Time: 3:04 PM | End Time: 5:09
PM
1.
I rate each song from 1.0 – 5.0. 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) so any song can earn up to a maximum of a 5.0
rating.
To tha artist/producer: Don’t get catchy feelin’s
if I don’t like a song on a first listen. Things could change in tha future as
I could love it, so you neva know!

01.
Longo & Wainwright Feat. Craig Smart “One Life Stand”
CS
looks like a DJ name ‘cause MCD got this song by Ridder & CS called
“Higher” three months ago. Anyway, tha title was makin’ me think it was tha Hot
Chip MCE/my college station’s
song but this iz a completely new Dance song signed by Parker/Next Plateau!
LMAO! MCE’s now playin’ their “OLS”
so now, lemme hear this one at tha
same time! >>> Tha beginning lyrics sound like a remake or somethin’
but this iz soundin’ hot for a start; this CD gon be REAL, REAL HOT!!!
Anticipatin’ music and tha vocals sound betta here than “Higher” although those
“Higher” vocals/lyrics were real catchy in tha Dance world! Also, once again,
THUMBS UP for a PO startin’ off wit a Next Plateau song; that just makes things
much better and much more anticipatin’! BEST PO-startin’ song of tha year right
behind “Revolver” from tha 1/10 CD!! My
Rating: 4.5
02.
Niamh Egan “You’re The One”
LOL
@ tha “pronounced Neeve” in tha ID; it makes it REAL anticipatin’ and REAL
lucky since this iz tha 1st PO song
to have that in tha ID!! I KNOW this gon be REAL HOT since this iz tha fastest
song (a REAL fast BPM @ 142) on here
and wit Robbins backin’ it up!!! >>> Talk about it; you USUALLY NEVA
hear REAL HOT songs right away on POs!!! They’re usually towards tha near-end of
tha CD!!! VERY ANTICIPATIN’ start here wit tha beat and tha vocals!! Shit, yea,
tha chorus actually BLEW ME AWAY!!! WOW!!! :tu I don’t need to hear tha rest;
THIS IZ A PERFECT-RATED SONG!!!!! Tha beat’s just REAL, REAL KICK-ASS IN THA
CHORUS!!!!! :tu This iz REALLY what PO should
sound like EACH MONTH!!! Let’s hope this song brings GR8 influence to future
Dance songs/artists/labels!!! My Rating:
5.0
-> Tha average CD rating
right now iz 4.8;
SHOULD STAY LIKE THAT!!!!!
03.
Kim Sozzi “Just One Day”
LOL,
no mix names so far, lol!! This iz a VERY ANTICIPATIN’ PO!!! MCD got this
quickly and it sounds real anticipatin’ so lemme hear it!! >>> I was
thinkin’ that song that Bellatrax produced for her should be a future single
but this sounds good for now… This iz better than her last song and tha beat’s
REAL HOT here; good job wit your GR8 vocals and showin’ luv ta Dance music,
Kim!!! Strictly consistent here!!! My
Rating: 4.5
04.
Neon Trees “Animal (Smash Mode Radio Edit)”
Wit
SM on tha mix, I’d think it’d be slow but it has 136 BPM! I think this PO wins in ALL ways here!! Kinda a Rocky song so let’s
see if I like it as a HM… >>> Feelin’ tha beat start; not sure about
these vocals though… I’m gonna try and be nice here since my mood iz
SKY-HIGH!!! WOW!! ANOTHER KICK-ASS-soundin’ chorus!!! That came outta
nowhere!!! Speakin’ of SM, if only they did this to Kristine Elezaj “Let You
Know” on last September’s CD; would’ve been REAL GR8!!! My Rating: 4.4
05.
Selena Gomez & The Scene “Round & Round (Dave Audé Radio Edit)”
Well,
their last song had gotten a 4.8 rating from me, which brings good luck here! I
dunno… will this be as gr8? Let’s hear it… >>> Yea, this iz a DEFINITE
plus already!! I didn’t think about payin’ attention to tha original version
but tha start ALREADY caught my attention!! Good job, DA; keep it up!! I really
like tha pre-chorus and tha actual chorus; DEFINITELY a gr8 follow up!! LOL,
tha bridge reminded me of a rap or somethin’ and sounded gr8 too!! REAL HOT
soundin’ after that too like in tha “Naturally” remix wit tha continuous beat
sound!!! My Rating: 4.6
06.
Mon A Q “How Long (Lenny B Radio Edit)”
She’s
back and so iz tha Tone 1 Music label!! You KNOW I’m DEFINITELY lookin’ forward
ta hearin’ this too!!! >>> Keepin’ things goin’; GLAD ta have tha
Lenny B sound again!! You KNOW it sounds good here in tha beginning wit tha
chorus and HOT-ASS beat!! Tha 1st verse sounds pretty good for what
it iz; I think tha chorus stands out overall and this iz a good song for tha
future… LOL, now that she’s back, will I find another $200 winning scratch-off
lottery ticket like wit her last song three years ago, lol? Haven’t had much
luck wit dat lately but maybe she could resurrect it, lol! I think tha
breakdown sounds good on this song like tha SG&TS song too… My Rating: 4.4
07.
Sirens “Stilettos”
More
AL for me but
a much slower song at only 123? I think we goin’ to tha borderline route here
but I’m DEFINITELY lookin’ forward to their new song!! >>> LOL,
started immediately and yea, on tha GaGa beat tip here… Too bad MCD had their
last song in late-night rotation; sounded too mainstream for late-night…
Anyway, luvin’ tha quality here for some reason although Pop stations should
recognize here… Tha chorus’s pretty catchy and tha verses sound smooth and good
wit tha mixed-soundin’ vocals… This should get a remix soon. Hope at least MCH
gets this for its soundin’… My Rating: 4.2
08.
BT “The Emergency”
Oh,
that title struck me like tha Kim Leoni song, lol! Speakin’ of it, I was in my
1st car accident on this Friday tha 13th. :( Someone
banged into my mom’s car when we were exchangin’ my digital cable remote and I
had Kim Leoni on my iPod. Quite ironic title for an accident, lol! Anyway,
looks anticipatin’ and tha last song sounded good so let’s see what’s good wit
him here… >>> Sounds like it gon be a slow, good song based off tha
beginning… Damn, tha hot, consistent beat that I usually get bored of iz in tha
beginning here, soundin’ good! Sounds like some GOOD Dance music here wit tha
soundin’… Wow, tha chorus sounds HOT wit tha beat here!! Tha vocals are
soundin’ good and pretty strong-soundin’ here!! Tha rest of tha song’s pretty
hot here; good shit! My Rating: 4.3
09.
Basshunter “Saturday (Digital Dog Radio Edit)”
In
this PO of fast songs, here comes a fast
artist wit a slower mix, lol. Although I’d prolly rather hear an original
version, let’s hope DD still makes things hot!!! >>> Doesn’t sound
like him in tha beginning; a girl soundin’ hot on tha beginning!! Also, tha
beat’s holdin’ it down here and now, I hear Basshunter on tha 1st
verse wit this backin’-up vocal girl!! Tha chorus iz good; doesn’t really sound
like a song he would make, which kinda sounds a lil’ borderline here… Overall,
this iz another gr8-soundin’ song on this REALLY GR8 PO!!! My Rating: 4.2
10.
Stefano Gamma “Love Is The Boss (Benny Benassi Radio Edit)”
LOL,
this song that PFM now LUVS!! I
believe off tha sample I heard on YT, this iz like tha next male-vocal song
(like an Evermore “It’s Too Late” or “Sweet Disposition”) that’s gonna be
HUGE!! Red Stick’s behind it so that means it’s prolly gonna be on every source
too! Lemme see if I can keep my interest when I hear it… >>> LOL, that
first second reminded me of tha “Goodnight Tonight” intro, which kinda gave me
a lil’ AL… Oh
yea, I remember this… I don’t really anticipate these kinda songs wit an
original-soundin’ start but this iz becomin’ to sound real hot!! Thought it
would be borderline but I think it’s more Dance since Red Stick signed…
DEFINITELY thumbs up for tha BB beat too!! Yea, tha 2nd verse sounds
gr8 too!! Much better than I expected and lol @ my “not ICin’” when I 1st
heard it; should’ve just got it anyway… My
Rating: 4.4
½time: Wow, this iz a FIRST on PO where I LUV (4.0+ ratings) EVERY SINGLE SONG SO FAR!!!
A bunch of them I REALLY luv!!! A
WHOPPING 4.5
iz tha average CD rating right now!! I swear, it feels like my HIGH,
CONSISTENT-QUALITY Louisiana Rap undaground music right now wit all these TIGHT
ratings!!! I KNOW tha rest’ll stay
like this!!!
11.
Ciara Feat. Ludacris “Ride (Mike Rizzo Funk Generation Radio Edit)”
LOL,
MCD got tha Nevins mix but you KNOW a VERY HOT CD HAD to have a dose of MR!!! I don’t really take some of these songs
that serious when I first hear ‘em so let’s see how it does on tha review/new
mix… >>> Yea, this mix iz better but my interest iz still kinda low…
Tha chorus iz soundin’ pretty good here so that’s a plus… LOL, Ludacris iz tha
rapper that’s on tha most of tha POs this year; this iz like his 4th
appearance or somethin’, lol. This time, I’m likin’ his flow and tha pretty
good-soundin’ beat too! My Rating: 4.0
12.
Alex Sayz Feat. Sibel “United As One”
Looks
like tha older Sybel singer but I
guess this iz a different vocalist. Anotha new MCD song so let’s see how HOT
this one iz!! >>> Of course, GOTTA have that hot beat start!! Okay,
this iz a new vocalist for me and she’s soundin’ pretty good here!! Sounds like
a STRONG chorus so this DEFINITELY gets tha thumbs up!! I think I should just
retire all tha older PO songs from my playlist
(excluding Kim Leoni “Emergency”) and just PLAY this WHOLE CD consistently!!!
LOL!! Tha 2nd verse sounds real hot here; DEFINITELY likin’ it!! My Rating: 4.4
13.
Guerilla Rips “Lady Madonna (Short Edit)”
I
smell somethin’ funny ‘bout this one, lol! We went from tha fastest song on
here (Song #2—142 BPM—Robbins) to tha slowest song on here (115 BPM—Robbins
also); Robbins got both fast and slow, lol! Funny title so I’d say this iz
either gonna be addicting or somethin’ weird; let’s see… >>> Weird
start in tha beat; doesn’t sound that Dance… Hope it doesn’t ruin—oh no, male
vocals… Was gonna say, “Hope it doesn’t ruin tha 4.0 ratings;” I think it iz! :( Why iz this here? This iz a
turn off and tha beat just iz too much to where I can barely hear tha vocals…
Nothing really caught my interest here and this REALLY blew tha ratings!! :td
But, at least 12 4.0’s in a row (starting) iz tha new record! Robbins got tha
fastest and slowest song on this CD but now, they also have my highest and
lowest rating on this CD too, lol! My
Rating: 1.4
14.
Twins “Boys, Boys, Boys (Darwich N-Joy Radio Mix)”
Looks
like a title Lady GaGa was influenced by or somethin’ (‘cause I think she
remade a “Girls, Girls, Girls”). Anyway, I know Darwich from only remixin’ tha
Kim Leoni “Again” song (nice and fast) back three years ago. But, only 128 BPM
this time? I’m still anticipated for tha mix; I just hope it doesn’t sound BAD
like tha last song on here!!! >>> Yea, tha mix sounds like it gon play
a REAL GR8 job; nice comeback, Mr. Darwich!! Sounds good for a 128 song and tha
vocals are hella catchy; sounds like it’s 2000 or somethin’ again!! :tu Just
tha letter B signed it, lol! Tha verses sound hot as hell wit those vocals
here!! My Rating: 4.5
15.
Lucas Prata “Gimme The Beat”
LOL…
He performed this at tha Megajam when I was there; didn’t realize it was as
fast as 135 BPM. However, I think it’s a lil’ Pop but then again, I need to
rehear it to remember… >>> Oh yea, I remember this Usher/Young Jeezy
“Love In This Club” start. Ugh, scary Auto-Tune background start too before tha
1st verse… LOL, this iz kinda cheesy and throws off tha consistent
ratings from earlier… I can’t even consider this a Dance song; no wonder why
Mainstream PO picked it up too… It’s an okay song but nothin’ like this CD!! My Current Rating: 3.7
16.
Hamilton “Sun
(Trevor Simpson Radio Remix)”
High
AL on tha mix
here… Looks like a dude so I don’t know what else ta say but to hear it…
>>> Tight beat start; tha vocals sound a lil’ on tha gay-soundin’ side
though on this pretty good beat… Tha chorus iz a lil’ on tha interestin’ side…
Tha beat right before tha 2nd verse sounds like this has an original
version or somethin’… Still likin’ tha beat here on tha 2nd verse…
Kinda losin’ interest as this iz almost four minutes and tha last like minute
iz tha chorus… My Rating: 3.8
17.
Dave Audé Feat. Isha Coco “Figure It Out”
This
CD only had one “content warning” so far (“Ride”). Now, a DA song has one too,
lol? Let’s see what’s really good wit
this song; feelin’ tha 134 BPM anticipation!!! >>> Sounds like a
different/hot beat start here… Ooh, feelin’ tha female vocals and tha BPMs
throughout tha verse… LOL, tha “damn” in tha 2nd verse gave this a
content warning, smh. I thought this was gonna be a hidden Rap-type or
somethin’, lol. For some reason, this either sounds like a Pop song or a
BT-soundin’ song, overall… But, it’s definitely catchy! My Rating: 4.2
18.
Kaskade Feat. Dragonette “Fire In Your New Shoes”
Looks
really anticipatin’ here; I think it’ll be a REAL GOOD single for some reason…
>>> Okay beat start. Tha vocals sound like Gwen Stefani here or
somethin’. LOL, that chorus came outta nowhere and sounds a lil’ on tha loud
side wit tha beat, lol. Thought this would be betta; not too into this beat as
it’s kinda dry… This was kinda short too… My
Rating: 3.5
19.
L2 “Boys Or Girls (Funk Generation Radio Mix)”
Anotha
boy/girl song but here’s tha other Funk Generation mix!! Same artist/label name
so high AL
here!!! >>> Sounds like a HOT-ASS start here!!! Thought tha beat would
go REAL crazy after seven seconds but it sounds like just kicks… Tha vocals
give me anticipation and sound hot! This iz hot although tha “Ride” mix sounded
more Dance; this sounds more Rhythm… Catchy chorus but most of all, very catchy
vocals!! ROFL @ all tha edited words on tha 2nd verse!! :rofl That
was outta nowhere!! Tha breakdown sounds pretty good too… My Rating: 4.5
20.
Lenny B Feat. Drew Darcy “The Night Belongs To You (Sylvane Radio Edit)”
Looks
good on tha ID; lookin’ forward to more new Dance music!! >>> Tha
start’s pretty hot but it’s like I can’t hear tha Lenny B sound wit this havin’
a mix on it… Tha male vocals are okay here. Although I’m not crazy about these
vocals, that chorus iz pretty STRONG wit how it sounds and iz delivered!!
Sounds a lil’ more like LB after tha chorus… Still, I think this would’ve been
better if it was an Original Radio Edit or somethin’ for tha mix. But, it still
serves as a good Dance song! My Rating: 3.7
21.
Underworld “Always Loved A Film”
BEST
PO ENDING IN A LONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNG TIME!!!!!
Thought this would be a weird-ass MCE song but this iz really on tha Dance tip!! Usually, I stereotype tha
beat soundin’ but this time, it’s REALLY ON FIRE here!! I couldn’t resist for
some reason to hear it on MCE; just had
to hear it and it gave me more AL
to do tha review!! More clearer vocals here from them than usual songs they
make where they’re hella weird. Also, I find it more interesting when tha
title’s not said… Plus, tha fade-out ending ends PERFECTLY wit this CD since this
iz tha last song!! My Current Rating: 4.8
Overall: DEFINITELY THA BEST PO IN
A LONG TIME OR BETTA YET, THA BEST PO I EVA
REVIEWED!!! I always luved tha June 2006 and November 2007 CDs but this one iz
RIGHT UP THERE!!! Too bad for that stupid “Lady Madonna” song. If that wasn’t
on here, tha average CD rating of this CD would’ve broken a record at 4.3!!
But, it’s whateva… still had tha BEST ½time eva!! Can’t believe tha CONSISTENCY
of this CD!!! Best consistency EVER and it’s funny ‘cause this came out VERY
early and I didn’t waste any time to review it, lol!
