01.
Hook N Sling feat. Digital Farm Animals “Arms Around Me”
Astralwerks,
here… A decent song from Music Choice Dance… Nothin’ too-too special, so I’ono
how my official full listen gon be… >>> Okay vocals/chorus, here, with
just an okay build-up… An okay drop with nothin’ too-too much goin’ on… Tha
hornish sound sounds like a Martin Solveig sneak attack or somethin’… But yeah,
not sure how well this decent track’ll do with me… Crazy that we had 44 PO songs in a row that I rated at least a 4.0! Last one
not a 4.0 was Elephante & Deb’s Daughter “Troubled” from tha 7/17 PO! That’s tha record! Crazy! This gon be tha 1st
song I rate less than a 4.0 since I done turned 29 & since my friends
abandoned me! Crazy! Even through those dark times of this summer, I still held
it down with tha happy/good ratings! My
Rating: 3.5
02.
Ferry Corsten feat. HALIENE “Edge Of The Sky”
Nice
to have as a 2nd song, here, courtesy of Flashover… Got so
distracted, I musta not’ve even cared about tha 3:26 length, lol! Guess that’s
how much my mind’s on tha future! >>> Sounds like it gon be an
exciting track! Definitely feelin’ this a lot betta than their previous collab,
despite ratin’ that a 4.6! Didn’t get exposure & didn’t really appeal to me
too much while givin’ it spins… Definitely likin’ tha drop and, crazy to know
that this CD had a quiet, plain start with two great artists together (Hook N
Animals, lol). Now, only 2nd track in and we’re back to those
big-time ratings! Just feelin’ tha whole vibe, here; makes me feel
super-positive!! I feel like I know there gon be a few tracks that are just
decent for me, so I’ll ***PERFECT RATE*** this b4 it’s too late… Still can’t
believe we’re still in this special year, even tho challengin’! My Rating: 5.0
03.
Above & Beyond feat. Zoë Johnston “My Own Hymn”
Courtesy
of Anjunabeats, we have a new follow-up, here, to anotha Anjuna (“Alright
Now”). Let’s see how this gon go… >>> This sounds good, too! Likin’
tha start from Zoë and tha music’s pretty nice, of course… Even when it’s slow
durin’ tha verses, there’s still that anticipation vibe throughout tha track…! My Rating: 4.7
04.
Chris Lake & Chris Lorenzo “Nothing
Better”
Insomniac
on tha label, as tha “Bass Jam” vibes continue, here! >>> Sounds like
a long, repetitive, catchy start, here… I’ono, I’m definitely likin’ tha house
vibe, here… And, not tha kinda drop I expected but interestin’ in a way they
call…, left-field! Definitely luv bein’ zoned out to this, as it sounds
non-stop! My Rating: 4.7
05.
MK “17”
Ultra,
here, with a track only four characters long (seven if you count tha space
& quotes)… House vs. House; who will go down tha winner? #04 or #05? Prolly
“Nothing Better”… >>> Sounds like catchy, mysterious vocals, here…
Nothin’ bad, here; not too plain, neither… Sounds like it has its catchiness… I
was hoping a good drop would transition this betta… Luckily, some spice was
added to tha beat and it sounds good…! Tha rest of this sounds nice, too… My Rating: 4.3
06.
Alyx Ander feat. Caroline Pennell “Wake Up For The Night”
Looks
like it gon be a special, catchy one! Nettrax on tha label; excited to hear!
>>> Not too bad of a start, here… Sounds like it gon be a good quiet
songs… Not too bad of a chorus but I luv how tha drop creeped up on me;
definitely luv tha creepiness!! Interesting in its own ways, at least… My Rating: 4.6
07.
Pnau “Chameleon”
A
120 BPM follow-uper to “Changes” from three years ago, courtesy of both
AfterCluv & Casablanca…
Hmm… Kinda diggin’ its look but what will its sound be like…? >>> An
instant start… Sounds like some crazy vocals but some anthemic music… I’ono,
but I expected a betta drop… Still, a unique sound with these Jamaican vocals
around tha 2nd verse! Definitely nice with tha unique vocals/unique
err-thang! My Rating: 4.3
08.
RUNAGROUND “I’ll Be There”
Robbins
back to claimin’ this dude, after his not-so-exposed previous track, “Can’t
Afford It”, which I really liked tha same, if not, better than tha “Chase You
Down”… But, kinda heard bits and pieces of this…; not too fast of a vibe? Kinda
dry…? Lemme see… >>> Yeah, off to a decent start, sometimes a lil’
betta-than-average… Tha chorus not bad… Kinda sounds like it can be anotha
mainstream one? Seems like it’s long fa only 3:44, which, surprisingly, if I
can recall, might be one of tha longest tracks on here? Like, lol, not even a
four-minuter! That’s how nice and quiet/anthemic some of these songs are!
Overall, good lil’ track; can’t complain… My
Rating: 4.0
09.
BRKLYN feat. Jocelyn Alice “I’m On Somethin’”
And,
anotha follow-up… Just like RUNAGROUND, I got bits and pieces of this one, too,
courtesy of tha M-C-D… I think this might be a lil’ dry, too? Enhanced with
this one… >>> First time these dudes slowed their tracks down… Kinda
diggin’ these unique vocals… Sounds like a tasty chorus with tha “cotton candy”
and tha “lemonade,” lol… Sounds like a random drop that has a random, good vibe
to it! I’ono, not as plain as I thought; just a lil’ different vibe, as I get
an official 1st listen… My
Rating: 4.1
10.
TooManyLeftHands feat. Casso “Mad For It”
Funny
with tha artist name and a 3:26 followin’ a 3:07! Double trippiness!! Tha two
main birthdayz for tha embracing decisions/pushes! A new Robbins song? I’ono, I
gon feel like I’m in left-field with this one! That’s my prediction!!
>>> Ooh! Let’s see if I can keep tha interest up! Yeah, feelin’ tha
chorus in a nice way, too! Also, nice lil’ drop, in a Moonbeam (?) style! I luv
that tha chorus has a crave feeling to tha lyrics/sound! Definitely nice! Makes
me SUPER-EXCITED
fa 23 more dayz!! Unbelievable decisions! Luv when people like me, they “goin’
mad for it!” Lol! Excellent/catchy vocals, here!! My Rating: 4.9
11.
Breathe Carolina & Flatdisk
“Hotel”
Spinnin’,
here, and excited to see my boyz back! Can’t wait ta hear dis one! >>>
A Caribbean-soundin’ start… Lol, and, who woulda thought these songs of my
times would get a dance remake, lol? Cassidy
& R. Kelly “Hotel” turns into this, in its nice,
slow-dance way! Sounds catchy for these times and yeah, gotta have shit go fa
tha whole day/night! A decent lil’ house track, here; can’t complain… My Rating: 4.2
½time: I’ono, for what I thought
was gonna be a decent CD, but had my confidence for, this iz turnin’ out to be
a pretty-dope CD, overall! Lots of great singles soon to be out there, if not
already! A 4.4-rated
CD… Too bad I wasn’t too crazy-crazy about tha “Hook N Animals” collab… But,
props for all these potential, dope, addictin’ tracks! Makes me even more
confident for my Louisiana
trip in 23 dayz (October, like tha CD)! Gotta keep embracin’ err-thang!!
12.
ItaloBrothers “Summer Air”
Ultra,
here… This one a questionable one, too, that I heard bits and pieces of… Ain’t
hear nothin’ ‘cept tha 09/09 CD with “So Small”… Oh, boy! I just typed,
“09/09,” my ex-friend’s birthday!! Oh, boy!! But yeah, that song was, like, 142
BPM and now, this 102 after a follow-up to a really-fast one, lol… >>>
Couldn’t appreciate tha slower vibes on my bits and pieces but it sounds like
it has its quality, here; definitely nice! I can appreciate this even more… I feel
like with music like this, it makes me appreciate tha world more… It’s like, I
said it tha other day, tha more dedication you have for this world, tha more
your celebrity status increases! That’s me!! My Rating: 4.4
13.
Sam Feldt feat. Akon “Yes”
Guilty
pleasure… Astralwerks, here, and, what a way to bring Akon back, lol… Just a
decent track; nothin’ special… Slow lil’ dry vibe but a lil’ positive… Nothin’
much ta say with it… My Current Rating: 3.2
14.
Savi feat. Ida Da Silva “Losin’ Myself”
Looks
like it gon be good, courtesy of Enhanced… Can’t wait ta hear! Oh, I gon crave
it while I eat real food,
anticipatin’ dance food, lol!
Vocalist’s name almost reminds me of Rui
Da Silva (“Touch Me”, from 2001); anticipatin’? “Fuckin’ right, fuckin’ right,”
like my boy, Doe-Doe says! >>> Kinda sounds like it can be a pop song
with this slow vocal start… I ain’t knockin’ it but am enjoyin’ it, so far…
And, a catchy-soundin’, unique-soundin’ drop, here! Not-so-poppy! I’ono, but it
reminds me of Hailee Steinfeld… Nice job with how this sounds, overall… It
kinda has, like, a hot weather, beachy-like vibe, fa some reason… My Rating: 4.4
15.
Kesha “Praying (Tim Legend Remix)”
Kemosabe & RCA, here… Wanted to really like but couldn’t… Can a remix revive its chances with me? I hope so… Don’t want it to go unnoticed! >>> Raining start? Random… Almost thought it was gonna be off-beat… So far, nice… Not sure what to say about it… I guess, I’m glad it’s less-screamy, lol? Unique-soundin’ remix, here… Gotta appreciate tha content and makin’ me feel like tha “praying” should answer all tha questions to build up for tha future! Like, me, “I hope [my ex-friends] are somewhere… PRAYING!!,” “praying” that they fucked up with takin’ me outta their life! Always there for ‘em, financially & willingly! Like, ugh, it hurts! Even before I reviewed “Losin’ Myself”, I tried finding a new song I just heard on iTunes and my ex-friend’s name popped up! Trippy!! My Rating: 4.2

16.
Ookay & Fox Stevenson “Lighthouse”
Monstercat,
here, as well as tha 3:26ness! Just a decent trap track from tha two of these
guys… Wouldn’t’ve expected a collaboration like this but here it iz, in its own
wayz… Vocals ain’t too bad but, I’ono, it has to be appreciated in some way
with this trap vibe… Kinda gives me that vibe of “Criminals” (6/17 PO) from No Sleep & XUITCASECITY, lol! Seems like
forever ago, lol! But yeah, a decent house track, here… My Current Rating: 4.0
17.
Galantis & ROZES “Girls On Boys”
Can’t
imagine this collab, courtesy of Big Beat!! Ooh, ooh!! >>> I’ono,
sounds kinda random, but decent, at tha same time… Random content and great
chorus/drop! Funny ‘cause she says, “High.” I swear, each one of her collabs
has somethin’ to do wit lightin’ up/shmokin’/bein’ high, lol! Luv tha secret
sneak-in! Kinda has its cheesiness but still okay… My Rating: 4.2
18.
Steve Void & Syence “We Won’t Leave You”
Oh,
tha title agrees with tha length of 3:07!! It “won’t leave [me]!!” Lowly Palace
on tha label! First, their “Bill Murray” & now, their co-worker birthday
length!! M.H.!! >>> Sounds like a real-special beginning, here…
Definitely nice; luv tha competition between tha 3:07 & 3:26 tracks!! Luv
how tha drop sounds like a vibratin’ boomerang!! A lil’ clunky, here, lol?
Goin’ off da wallz; sounds good… Nice job wit tha clunkiness!! My Rating: 4.8
19.
Grace VanderWaal “Moonlight (BKAYE Remix)”
Columbia, here…; I’ono what to
expect…? Remix rather than dance track, remixed? >>> Feel like I
might’ve heard this from somewhere, as this sounds like a remix… Sounds a lil’
catchy… Kinda can be a guilty pleasure? Interestin’-soundin’ drop, as there’s
no room for disappointment, lol! Nice effort, here; I’ll give it its credit!
Catch me by surprise or not (well, here, you did!)… My Rating: 4.3
20.
Crankdat “Dollars”
Ooh,
ooh, ooh!! Crazy to say that it has to take a dance/trap vibe for me to like a
song about money, lol! That’s not easy, these dayz!! Asylum & ADA on tha
label; gotta luv tha upbeat vibe! And, just tha way tha vocals are laid down on
this awesome beat! Funny that their name iz after Soulja Boy Tell’em “Crank Dat
(Soulja Boy)”—well, ta me, it iz, lol! And, really short, compared to tha full
version, lol! Only 2:29, here, lol! Luv tha anthemic vibe and how tha note iz
different at 1:58 (tha only one—well, I hear it twice in this version)! Lol,
gotta luv it! Lol @ tha quick ending, this time! My Current Rating: 4.9
21.
Conro “Close”
Monstercat, here, followin’ their previous release, which I really liked (tha 7/17 PO with “Lay Low”). Then, this came outta nowhere on Music Choice Dance… Neva really got to pay attention but I’on remember if this as catchy as tha previous single… >>> Just a decent vibe, here; can’t complain about these female vocals & this secretly fast/slow beat… I feel like I can appreciate tha slow trap vibe in its own way of today—right now… And, secretly fast toward tha end, at times… Gotta give credit to its unique trap vibes, of course… Not too bad of a track fa me… Not sure how special it’ll be fa me, especially durin’ these times? My Rating: 3.9

Ben Platt (Dear Evan Hansen) “Waving Through A Window (Lodato & Joseph
Duveen Remix)”
An
interestin’ ID, here, where both tha artist & title have a “()”! Atlantic, here; can’t wait to hear with these remixers!!
>>> Like how we’re back to 126 BPM, outta nowhere… I’ono, I feel like
this sounds like a pop song or somethin’… Tha chorus kinda cool but I’m really
anticipatin’ tha climax, here!! And, definitely sounds like a really nice drop!
Lol, surprise in a surprise spot!! I expected there to be some spice,
somewhere! Kinda feelin’ it more throughout tha 2nd verse… Reminds
me of an old dance music vibe, in a great way! Oh, crazy climax #02!! Fuckin’
lovin’ it!! My Rating: 4.7
23.
Michael Jackson “Blood On The Dance Floor x Dangerous (The White Panda Mash-Up)”
I’ono,
but I feel like, iz this a joke? Don’t wanna hear MJ on tha Dance Radio editions! Let him rest,
courtesy of Epic & Legacy… >>> However I wanna in vision this,
I’ll see what comes outta me… Scary-soundin’ vocals but, really, what we gon do
wit dis, now? Random mashin’ up… I’ono, it just sounds like an original version
all combined & shit, lol… Not an MJ fan, especially, for me, I like tha
underrated/least-popular more than tha overrated/most-popular… That’s how my
autistic-ass been! I don’t wanna change! I really wanna support tha underrated
to tha fullest! They tha ones that brighten up my life and make me continue
lovin’ it, to tha fullest! My Rating: 1.7
Overall: Crazy that this review
ended at 6:15 PM, Da Real Gee Money birthday time! Can’t believe he was
murdered just 10 dayz ago!! Sickens me so much!! Dude was SO talented and
had a bright-ass future!! This generation’s legends!! But yeah, lots of
surprise bangerz, here! I was surprised! I took a happy approach fa this CD,
especially to review it on Tina Ann’s birthday & it was a HUGE
success!! Props fa anotha bangin’ CD and way I look at my future, Promo Only!!
Gotta luv it!!
