01.
Alesso feat. Sirena “Sweet Escape”
Looks
sweet, here! Saw it on MTV Hits,
already, so it looks like it’s bein’ respected! As always for Alesso, Def Jam
on tha label; anotha #1 PO song for him, this
year! >>> A nice vocal start, here, and that background violin’s
really gettin’ me addicted! Wow, nice and dance-y, here; power jam!! Thought tha
drop was gonna drop a lil’ harder, but this iz still excellent! Nice lyrics,
here; glad he’s been consistent with tha hot singles! My Rating: 4.5
02.
Avicii feat. Simon Aldred “Waiting For Love”
High
or not, I have a feelin’ this’ll just be decent. PRMD Music, Island Records
& Republic Records all on tha signin’, here… >>> So far, it’s only
okay for this male-vocal track. Tha chorus and singin’ kinda drags on, here,
but at least it’s better than a slow beat start… Hearin’ tha drop kinda creep
in and it’s soundin’ like a nice build-up; pretty nice, overall! And, of
course, uncredited vocals! Lookin’ online and it says tha vocals are by Simon
Aldred, tha lead singer of Cherry Ghost (never heard of ‘em). Also, it says it
was co-produced by Martin Garrix, so that’s a good look! My Rating: 4.0 (shocking for an
Avicii song!!)
03.
Zedd feat. Jon Bellion “Beautiful Now”
Interscope,
here, and surprisingly, this got a GREAT
1st listen from me!! Really love how tha vocals go along with tha
melody; real-great follow-up!! First time listening while high, despite two
weeks on my playlist!! Where’d tha time go?!? Sounds excellent!! And, gotta luv
how tha 2nd verse has some real-pure
sound effects!! Excellent, here! Summer anthem!! My Current Rating: 4.8
04.
Hunter Siegel feat. Delaney Jane “Still Waiting”
A
new Thrive Records song; whoo! Lookin’ forward to these “This Could Be Love”
song that Borgeous dropped, earlier this year… >>> Really anticipatin’
this start between tha vocals and slow build-up!! Catchy chorus and a catchy
beat drop, here; pretty solid! Sounds like a hot deep house song, overall! My Rating: 4.4
05.
Adam Lambert “Ghost Town (Tritonal Radio Edit)”
Did
seein’ this on tha new PO predict somethin’
for me? Right after tha tracklist was released, I drove to Centralia, PA,
a “ghost town!!” Only 10 people live there, but there’s smoke pockets of a fire
burning from under tha ground since 1962, and there’s an abandoned highway
fulla graffiti! Great, excellent place! As for this, tha mix looks anticipatin’,
but I’ono about a new song from him, with Warner Bros. on tha label…
>>> A slow beat start with some okay vocals… Ooh, pretty serious
climax before tha drop!!! Feels like I’m on some sorta unique ride with this
drop, here! Sounds like you can’t escape tha highway, lol!! So far, a pretty
nice start! A lil’ slow intro, but it picked up with tha climax and drop! Such
intensity; gotta luv it!! For what could’ve been a cheesy pop song turned into
somethin’ real nice!! My Rating: 4.2
06.
Natalie Peris, Inpetto & Manufactured Superstars “Let Me Be Your Fantasy
(Manufactured Superstars & Digital Junkiez Radio Edit)”
Luv
tha looooooooooong ID!! Now, will I
be able to remember that when I have to recap it, one day? Hmm… Anyway, Magik
Muzik on tha label, though I think it gon be a remake! >>> Yup, heard
this before, especially a decade ago with Ashley Jade! That was 139 BPM; this
kinda too slow… But, glad to see tha “What Does Tomorrow Bring” vocalist on
anotha track! A pretty-good build-up, but kinda crashed on down with this drop…
Not much interest, but catchy sound effects on tha 2nd ½ of tha
drop! Nice lil’ breakbeat-soundin’ beat on tha 2nd chorus, though
when will we eva return to those 140 BPM-type beats for tha dance world?! Tha 2nd
drop sounds pretty nice, here! LOL, almost sounds like, “Pot to piss in,”
ROFL!!! Like, really, “Pot to piss in, pot to piss in, pot to piss in, pott to
piss in,” lol! Should it now be called Natalie
Peris, Inpetto & Manufactured Superstars “Let Me Be Your Fantasy (Pot To
Piss In) (Manufactured Superstars & Digital Junkiez Radio Edit)”?!? My Rating: 3.7
07.
Felix Jaehn feat. Jasmine Thompson “Ain’t Nobody (Loves Me Better)”
And,
anotha remake, here… First heard it on tha Electronica side of MCD? Anyway,
Casablanca & Republic Records on tha label. Only thing, it’s anotha remake
and it’s slow! Really loved “Sun Shine Down”, but this iz kinda stale with just
a lil’ bit of catch to it. Nice lil’ bridge part to this; almost sounded like
it escaped tha remaking process! Still, just decent, so far; we’ll see if it
grows later on. My Current Rating: 3.3
08.
SNBRN feat. Kaleena Zanders “California”
Wonder
which Kaleena this iz? Anyway, that name sounds sexy ‘cause this girl I worked
with, Karina, has sex parties! So, tha name sounds sexy! With that bein’ said,
Ultra on tha signin’! >>> Nice lil’ start but wow, anotha remake! This time, tha singin’
chorus on tha late Tupac & Dr. Dre’s “California
Love”! I have to say, this gotta be tha best one outta tha three, so far? Just
reachin’ above tha decent level for me, but I’m definitely diggin’ it, as its
remake came at me outta nowhere! Drop’s a lil’ stale, though; kinda like some
boring deep house music… Diggin’ tha repetitive, “We keep it rocking,” part;
goes great with a high! My Rating: 4.1
09.
Leona Lewis “Fire Under My Feet (Steve Pitron & Max Sanna Radio Edit)”
Anticipated
for this, after Music Choice Dance just got it! Anticipatin’ tha mix, though
only 122 BPM? Deep house?? Def Jam on this signin’, too… >>> This has
a hot, tight deep house sound to tha beat. It almost sounds like an excellent
pop-remixed song! Tha 2nd chorus part sounds pretty hot; I’m really
diggin’ this! Could be a close #1-rated song on this CD! Lots of excellent
beats on this lil’ remix, here; definitely diggin’ it fa tha 2015! Hope it
becomes pretty big! Did time fly or iz it crazy that she’s now 30! Luvin’ all
tha consistent intensity on this remix, right chea!! She sounds more R&B in
her voice, now! My Rating: 4.8
10.
Britney Spears & Iggy Azalea “Pretty Girls (Liam Keegan Radio Remix)”
RCA
on tha signin’, but wow, a remix already? Song hasn’t even been out for a
month, yet, and err-body jumpin’ on a remix to this? It’s a weird song but in a
funny, ooh-Britney-seems-like-she-grew-up-by-teamin’-up-with-“Fancy”-like-rappers-like-Iggy
perspective, lol! >>> A nice dance remix for tha chorus and hearin’
Britney on tha 1st verse, it sounds like one of those old remixes
from tha late 2000s without a drop, lol. Sounds like your typical pop remix
(but nowhere near tha Leona Lewis one) that sounds above-average ‘cause I’m
high! Even Iggy has her own lil’ part…; hmm, not bad… My Rating: 3.6
½time: A pretty hot and
anticipating CD, so far; glad it’s been this good! Luv how there’s some big
ones on here; can’t wait to play ‘em! For now, tha average CD rating’s at a 4.1;
let’s keep it goin’!! I hope there’s a few more huge dance bangerz!!
11.
Wish I Was feat. Kurtis Wade “Crossfire”
A
new Robbins song with 4:47 on tha length? Almost seems shocking! I’m excited to
hear this one, though I hope it ain’t no slow-soundin’, country-influenced
song… >>> Tha beat intro sounds like a faster version of deep house?
Hearin’ tha vocals and ehh, kinda on that country sound? Would’ve guessed folk?
Kinda slow with tha vocals for me, here; right between below average and
average… Tha drop at 1:30 ain’t too bad, though I don’t like tha interuption
with tha vocals… Tha 2nd drop makes this sound a lil’ better. Kinda
feel like it’ll be a memorable song in tha future, despite its only-decent 1st
listen… Ooh, an anticipating outro with tha beat soundin’ better! My Rating: 3.9
12.
Marcelo CIC feat. DyCy “Superfans”
I
have a feelin’ this gon be a fun-soundin’ song, with AfterCluv & Universal
Latino on tha signin’! >>> I already really like that intro!! And, I’m
definitely diggin’ these vocals over this slow-soundin’ beat start!! Ooh, a
pretty strong chorus hittin’ hard!! Luv all these artists in tha EDM world
givin’ it their all!! Really diggin’ how DyCy sings tha title part!! And, a
strong climax, too! Can we hit a homerun with tha drop bein’ excellent and
powerful, too?!? Yeah, at least it still hit hard; I’d give it a 3.5 of a 5.0
for tha drop… Just luvin’ this!! And, goin’ down tha rollercoaster feeling, as
tha title/chorus part comes back!!! Whooooooooooooo!! Ahh,
yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!! It ended with tha title part!!! Excellent cold
ending!!! My Rating: 4.7
13.
Lema & Shafer feat. Roxanne Emery “Summer Air”
Anticipatin’
lineup, here, with an anticipatin’ title, sponsored by Magik Muzik! Can’t wait
to hear this one, too! >>> This has a nice lil’ beat in it for a
somewhat-slow side… Once it got to tha chorus, it got to sound so innocent and
hot; definitely feelin’ these vocals and this smooth track! It’s funny to be
high and listen to such a smooth track like this! It’s like, tha smooth dance
track caught up in tha high! Tha hidden secret! I luv it! So glad for my music
taste to still be goin’ at 27 years-old!! This PO’s
got a lotta hot choruses on this CD: definitely catchin’ my attention! And, a
“summer” chirp outro from birds or somethin’, lol! Can’t wait for this to get
released!! My Rating: 4.6
14.
Walk The Moon “Shut Up And Dance (Jason Nevins Radio Mix)”
RCA
on tha label, here… And, this song’s everywhere, outta nowhere. It’s like, as
soon as I hear it, I think of tha wrong song to come on at a wedding! LOL, tha
“shut up” grab!! MCD got this mix; I think it’s just decent. >>> Just
decent for a song I think’s decent, but funny. This sounds like tha
pre-following-me-on-Twitter Nevins from years ago; diggin’ it… Nice lil’
breakdown, too; go, Nevins! My Rating: 3.5
15.
Aiden Jude & Vassy “Stadium Of Light”
Looks
like a really huge-soundin’ song, sponsored by Shape on tha label! It looks
like it gon be an undaground joint like “Boss”? My girl’s birthday on tha
length, 4:05!! >>> This sounds more like a smooth dance joint, here…
Vocals almost sounded like Sun to me, while I was dozzin’ off; nice! Ooh, definitely luvin’ tha melodic drop,
here!! Such a huge build-up that had
a huge drop!!! Definitely great
track, overall!! Lots of really big ones on this CD!! My Rating: 4.6
16.
Julian Jordan “Blinded By The Light”
Yes,
anotha “light,” lol!! Spinnin’ on tha label, excited for tha 2nd
single!! Luved tha “Angels X Demons” so it continues!!! >>> Oh, yes, a
big beat intro that hits hard!!! Wow, for a second, I thought there was hidden,
computer-like vocals, but then, look at this chorus/climax at :31; no words!!
Whoo!! And, a strong drop to top it off with tha chorus!!! And, whataya know,
at 1:24, hidden vocals!! Wow, they’re pretty powerful!! Almost sounded like a
Cascada but then again, it sounds like a fresh vocalist!! Wow, what a real hot vocal part!!! Really caught me
off-guard and on surprise, here!!! It really sounds like what could be my #1
dance song of 2015? Really hot, and it wound up gettin’ a **PERFECT RATING**
from me!! Wonder who tha vocalist iz?? It’s like, weed rules tha world!! Best
thing when combined with listening to EDM music and to help an autistic person
like me socialize as if I was normal!! My
Rating: 5.0
17.
Natalie La Rose feat. Jeremih “Somebody (Gazzo Radio Edit)”
And,
here comes this song that blew up… Natalie has a new house remake of “Gypsy
Woman” out now, so that’s good dance exposure for her, lol? Republic on tha
label… >>> Ehh, a lil’ slow so it’s just a random remix bein’ thrown
after tha HUGE previous song!!
Usually, somethin’ like this iz before it… It’s a cool song to crossover, but
this remix ain’t cuttin’ it; very dry and slow… I always thought tha chorus
from Jeremih was kinda cheesy with what he wants,
lol… My Rating: 2.8
18.
Ryan Cabrera “House On Fire (Riddler Radio Edit)”
Ashlee Simpson’s old boyfriend from 2004, lol… With Riddler on tha mix, it should be anticipatin’, though I ain’t really fuck with this teeny pop star… Dynamite & Lippman on tha label, here… Odd that it’s 4:20 on tha length? Naw, I don’t think it’ll be crazy-hot while high! >>> Intro was :37, not really :30, PO, lol… Hearin’ him on tha vocals and he sounds like he came back from tha dead, lol… Hot Riddler beats and an okay song, so far… Likin’ tha Riddler beats a lot during tha chorus, but this sounds more like a weird, gospel-like duet? Tha drop sounds pretty hot and catchy; I knew it! Somethin’ weird like this would have an interesting-soundin’ drop! Not really happy that what was to be tha 2nd drop got interrupted by a bridge; yuck! If this doesn’t get out there, then it sounds like a unique, ignored remix. But, overall, it’s just decent for me. My Rating: 3.4

19.
Mohombi “Universe (DJLW Radio Edit)”
Looks
anticipatin’, almost like an instrumental dance song? La Clique (PO has it as “Le
Clique”) & Roc Cartel on tha label; can’t wait to hear! >>> A
pretty strong beat start! Vocals kinda made this sound a lil’ sour; I’ono how
much I gon like this, in tha end… Hearin’ tha chorus and I thought I might’ve
heard this from somewhere, before (EDIT:
Now, I remember that this iz a vocalist on Shaggy’s “I Need Your Love”)… It’s a
decent track, overall; nice remix, I guess? Feelin’ it a lil’ better with tha 3rd
chorus; kinda sounds like a song where you’re in love! I’m diggin’ it, at tha
moment, if this person would just escape from their abusive boyfriends! My Rating: 4.0
20.
DJ Lady D “All Night Long”
Yes,
endin’ it with an unknown song, nothin’ that looks like it’ll sell out!
Anticipatin’ this deep house-lookin’ one, with Carrillo on tha label! Leggo, DJ
Lady D!! >>> Yeah, a deep house song with a ton of random rhymes:
music types, places, video types, dress types, and more, lol? I’ono, I have ta
say, I’m feelin’ it; it’s a great random song, lol! LOL @ tha “oh no, here we
go” parts repeatin’ at 2:04!! Nice lil’ beat music toward tha end… I have to
say, this was a fun song that was so ‘random!’ My Rating: 4.3
Overall: Definitely a nice CD;
really felt a ton of tha jointz on here!! Hopefully, we don’t have any scary
moments for age 27 and I keep tha memories comin’ along fa these tracks that
come out!! Gotta always have dat kush and hot dance music to get you through
your exciting, memorable dayz!! Can’t wait to play a bunch of these tracks
soon!!
