© 2012 CD Review (Review #1,161) reviewed on 5.27.2012 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.
01.
Calvin Harris Feat. Ne-Yo “Let’s Go”
For
a dance artist to hook up with a mainstream R&B singer, I hope it’s worth
it! >>> So far, not too bad; good chorus music, but would prolly sound
good in tha pop world. Not gonna be typin’ too much due to because I’m at tha
cabin, I’m reviewin’, listenin’, and playin’ a video game all on tha same
laptop. My Rating: 3.8
02.
Martin Solveig “The Night Out (Madeon Remix)”
First
time I saw it was on MTV, lol, one of tha mornings I had to wake up to go to my
internship. Well, with that bein’ said, let’s see how MTVable this iz, lol.
>>> It’s okay for MTV standards; music sounds too much like Madeon’s
remix to “Raise Your Weapon”, so tha duplication of tha music’s kinda a
turn-off… Vocals and lyrics are pretty good for a dance song; not too bad, overall.
My Rating: 3.6
03.
Scissor Sisters “Only The Horses (Max Sanna & Steve Pitron Radio Edit)”
Actually,
had this in IC outta nowhere. Not really an artist I’d IC so fast, at times,
but because tha music reminded me a lil’ of Digital Dog, it’s startin’ to catch
on, in a way… Tha lyrics and vocals really don’t mean anything to me, but I’m
just feelin’ that music, a lil’… My
Current Rating: 3.9
04.
Kat Graham “Put Your Graffiti On Me (Bimbo Jones Radio Edit)”
Yuck…
This iz one of those dumb-soundin’ mainstream songs that have me goin’, “WTF?”
Can only imagine what a dance remix gon sound like… >>> Finally,
non-typical BJ music? That always
seems to happen when I’m not into tha original version… Of course, goin’ tha FB
route wit her sayin’, “tag me;” yawn… No interest; stupid-soundin’ mainstream
song. My Rating: 2.7
05.
Krewella “Killin’ It”
Kick-ass song!!! LOL, I luv how it has
some of my urban dialect in it, wit tha “killin’ it!” If it was pre-dubstep
dayz, I prolly would’ve thought tha BPM was 160, but it’s 80. Great dubstep
music, as well as signed wit a major label! This seems to be one of tha
better-soundin’ dubstep songs than some that are comin’ out! My Current Rating: 4.7
06.
Bimbo Jones Feat. Ida Corr “See You Later”
Let’s
see this collaboration, as well as an IC (Ida Corr) resurrection… >>>
Tha beginning almost reminded me of tha previous song of her’s, that “Ride My
Tempo (Wideboys)”, lol; sounds pretty good, and lol @ her requoting “Thong
Song”: “thong, tha-thong, thong, thong,” lol! Her voice’s a lil’ Auto-Tuned,
but I can deal wit this… Nice and quick of a good jam; even some non-boring
music from BJ, too. My Rating: 4.2
07.
deadmau5 Feat. Chris James “The Veldt”
Hope
it’s some music that tha typical dance music people in my area wouldn’t hate
on, lol… >>> Definitely too poppy for tha typical dance music people;
it’s okay for me, in a way… I bet they think this iz a pop vocalist. My Rating: 3.5
08.
Jeremy Carr “Just One Breath”
Tha
“Deep At Night” & “The Way We Are” vocalist; sounds like a great song,
courtesy of MCD, but what does this original version sound like? >>>
Real nice beginning music; we all know his vocals do a nice job in tha dance world! Tha music ain’t too bad, here; I think
I slightly like MCD’s Promise
Land mix better, though.
Either way, soundin’ real nice wit tha original version music toward tha
bridge. My Rating: 4.0
09.
Jenna Drey “Summer Night In Seattle
(Lenny B Radio Edit)”
Really
lookin’ forward to hearin’ anotha new song of her’s, once again. However, I
hate how she gets tha short end of tha stick wit MCD. No matter what song it iz
and how well/bad it does, MCD always
gets rid of her songs and doesn’t play ‘em again, which iz gettin’ me pissed.
It’s like, can’t one still stay around, once a week or two? They still got some
of tha bullshittiest music, here and there, so why not some Jenna Drey? “Can’t
Let Go” was on there for about a month and they never played it again; I
thought all these dumb MCD songs last 1,000,000 years? >>> Really
likin’ tha start a whole lot; this sounds
a lil’ hotter than tha “Can’t Let Go” song, for me! Always fall in luv wit her
and her music; keep it comin’!! Tha title even looks like a remake… Definitely
feelin’ tha whole song; she does a nice
job deliverin’ it, as well as LB doin’ a nice
job wit tha beats!! My Rating: 4.8
Also: It’s good timing she came
out with another song; as of yesterday, after a two year hiatus, iPR IZ
BACK!!!!!
10.
Avicii Feat. Salem
Al Fakir “Silhouettes (Original Radio Edit)”
MCD
got but I don’t remember how it sounded… >>> Really likin’ tha vocals
and lyrics; they sound like a mysterious, new MCE artist! Also, tha music
doesn’t disappoint, either… Interesting song and collaboration, here; didn’t
expect it to be this good after bein’ a random MCD add, lol. My Rating: 4.2
½time: I knew this CD was gonna
be ½ and ½ for me, but it seems to be more postitive; 3.9 for tha CD rating, currently.
11.
DJ Ella Feat. Ricky J “Welcome To The Club 2012”
Two
people that had only one song (Ella in ’09 w/“SLASS” & RJ w/tha rap-poppy
“Whatta Night” (5/10 PO)); however, no
remixers here, so let’s hope DJ E has some hot beats of her own!! Then again, I
have a feelin’ this iz gonna sound like one of those dance-poppy beats (with a
lil’ extra dance feel to it), with some hip-hop… >>> Lo—oh no, it’s
that same “Whatta Night” song? Ehh, but quick revival, since DJ E has some
vocals goin’ on, here; not bad, overall, includin’ tha good music… Maybe, this
should be a “vs.”, instead? Damn, PO! Yea,
definitely on a “vs.” tip; heard tha 1st rapped verse of “WN”, which
mixes in a decent way, here. Also, I’m feelin’ some of tha new vocals from DJ
E… new, I think, lol? Not exactly what I expected wit tha “vs.” feel, but I’ll
this a lil’ bit of a chance… My Rating: 4.1
12.
Justin Bieber “Boyfriend (DJ Vice Radio Edit)”
I
should just skip. >>> Actually, I like tha computer-soundin’ vocals;
also, this music after tha chorus ain’t too bad, either. They really kept tha JB rap in here? Like,
what makes him wanna rap? Everyone already hates him as it iz! Even gettin’ my
vote: No rappin’ for Bieber! My Rating: 3.7
13.
Akcent “My Passion”
Finally,
a new song from them? Thanx, Robbins, and fuck-up move for Ultra, as they had
“Kylie” six years ago and now, not even signin’! Let’s hear how they gon sound
now that Romanian music’s actually on tha top? >>> Feelin’ tha
beginning vocals; they sound like Vika? Interestin’ sound, here; lots of
elements goin’ on wit tha music that I’m really catchin’ on to, ASAP! Wow, definitely a tight chorus!! Those mysterious female vocals!!! Now that iPR’s
back, songs gettin’ out there’s gonna be NICE and easy!! My Rating: 4.7
14.
Dave Matthias Feat. Tatiana Owens “Dolce DJ (Original Radio Edit)”
New
music from tha Carrillo Music label; not sure what to expect… >>>
Sounds like it’s only gonna be decent; it seems like tha CM label only puts out
hot music when there’s remixers involved in tha songs… Tha female vocals and
lyrics can be sexy, at times, but this ain’t anything at its best, though… My Rating: 3.3
15.
Ferry Corsten Feat. Aruna “Live Forever”
FC
seems to be on his grind with tha 2012 music, outta nowhere! Feelin’ tha “Ain’t
No Stoppin’” song, and now, another song? >>> Hot music and hot vocals
already; definitely a nice start… Hot lyrics in tha chorus, and all tha hotness
seems to not be stoppin’, here; definitely a good plus!! My Rating: 4.3
16.
Cazzette “Beam Me Up (Kill Mode)”
This
“Le7els” remixer that seems to be on an above-average level wit these remixes,
these dayz… I’m expectin’ this to be a good-soundin’ house song… >>>
Ooh, a hot-soundin’ dance song, so far, wit vocals soundin’ like Wynter Gordon!
Feelin’ tha lyrics, so far… Tha chorus iz pretty catchy, wit some tightness;
ooh, these verses are a turn-on for me! My
Rating: 4.3
17.
Duncan “Light
Up The Sky (Cutmore Radio Mix)”
Accordin’
to tha record label, it’s on a mainstream one (Maroon 5’s signed to); let’s see
what this gon sound like, even though I NHI… >>> I thought I was
expectin’ disco wit tha music, but it’s not too bad, so far. Lol, one of tha
catchier lyrics for tha start: “Million-dollar lotto ticket”? Great, even
though these vocals are kinda ehh for me; let’s see how this continues…
Overall, not too bad… My Rating: 3.6
18.
David Puentez “Envy”
Time
to “lose control”, lol!! >>> Of course, tightness, instrumental style!
Ooh, I like tha lil’ music breakdown from tha regular beat goin’ on, here! My Rating: 4.4
19.
Smash Cast Feat. Katharine McPhee “Touch Me (It’s The DJ Kue Radio Edit)”
Got
an American Idol vocalist, here.
Before I get into this, I have to say, looks like tha dance world caught on wit
tha dumb-ass tag names. OMG, tha rappers, especially tha underground ones I’m
dealin’ with, are doin’ this so much, and I’m almost ready to throw up
everytime I hear one! Wit this one, it’s DJ Kue; now, it would be easy to just
write, “DJ Kue”, on tha mix, but it’s “It’s The DJ Kue” as tha mixer? SMH; I
know one dude that does that in my underground world, and his name iz Puppy.
Instead of “Puppy”, I see “Puppy I’ll Hit Ya”; I’m kinda like, “Seriously?” So
weird… >>> Nice start from tha AI
vocalist; neva really hear much music from her, since she really was like a
one-hit-wonder in ’07 for her “Over It” song (5/07 PO).
DJ Kue usually doesn’t have tha tightest of remixes, especially against others,
but this iz soundin’ like a hot one! Lots of hotness comin’ from KP and a good
combo wit this main artist; sounds like a duet? My Rating: 4.4
20.
Joe Zangie “When The Night Comes”
Got
a high AL for
JZ; before I even hear it, I think Mr. Mig & Mike Rizzo are on tha mix
‘cause I saw this on one of tha club POs, and it had Mig & Rizzo on tha
mix/same BPM. Well then, lemme waste no time and hear this! >>>
Doesn’t exactly sound like them on tha mix, but this sounds interestin’…
Thought his previous song, from tha 4/11 PO
(“You Remind Me”) sounded better, but this iz good, in a different way. He
sounds like he should be an artist P105 supports and luvs, like a Megajam
artist. Seemed like a short song, but not bad/good, overall. My Rating: 4.2
21.
Liam Keegan Feat. Charlie G “Summers Calling (Suneil S & Stu-Con Radio
Edit)”
Looks
like PO forgot tha apostrophe in “Summers” (EDIT: Actually, tha title really
doesn’t have an apostrophe…)? Maybe…, maybe not? Another Carrillo Music
presentation, here, so now with a mix, let’s see how this’ll end this CD off…
>>> Sounds like a song that actually has a chance of gettin’ out
there; nice lyrics and feel! I do think an apostrophe’s in tha title, lol. Ooh,
nice music after tha chorus; lots of posititves, here! See, I knew it! Tha “Dolce
DJ” song on here wasn’t all that, but now, with a remixer—two, and unknown to
me, no less—tha hotness comes outta Carrillo’s label! My Rating: 4.3
Overall: Turned out to be a nice
CD, especially tha 2nd ½ havin’ lots of great ratings from me! Let’s
keep it up, especially since I gon be 24 next month!
