© 2018 CD Review (Review #1,776) reviewed on 7.21.2018 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.
01.
Axwell /\ Ingrosso feat. RØMANS “Dancing Alone”
Looks
like a nice collab, courtesy of Astralwerks & Capitol, this time. A/\I were
on tha PO a year ago, today, too! But yeah,
only one song I heard from RØMANS (10/15 PO)
with Markus Schulz on tha mix. Great job and now, we have this… Music Choice
Dance got, so here goes an official full listen… >>> Sounds like it
can be some good beats but okay vocals, compared to their “Uh Huh” track that I
mentioned, earlier. Drop ain’t bad; kinda dry, at times… For these decent
times, I’ono how well it’ll do with me… Looks like a good look to have it as
tha 1st track on this CD, but a decent track fa me… My Rating: 3.7
02.
Paul Oakenfold feat. Little Nikki “Only Us”
Perfecto,
once again!! Glad he’s here to join us, just like exactly one year ago &
#02, just like tha March ’18 CD! Wish for more exposure, like back in tha dayz!
Also, on June 16, I was at an ex-co-worker’s apartment, where one of them got
to hang wit Paul, himself! >>> Oh, sounds pure, here!! Definitely
lovin’ tha vibe to tha fullest!! I think I’m on exactly tha same level as I
was, a year ago & on tha March ’18, combined! Really lovin’ these vocals
tha best outta “Waterfall” & “Love Escape”! Think this one gets tha highest
vote, with its pure, anticipatin’ music in tha background!! That means, it
beats a 4.9 & even a 5.0—well, more like a tie, but a tiebreaker!! I wish
my summer was tha quality of this song!! I know it’s gonna be, but I know it’s
an evergrowin’ mission!! My Rating: 5.0
03.
Bruno Martini & Olly Hence feat. Paul Aiden “The Cure”
AfterCluv,
here… I’ono, his previous singles were not as successful wit me as tha one on
tha PO from last year, too (wow, three artists
back to back!! “Sun Goes Down”), with tha hidden “high!” But, I really do hope
this one sounds pretty good… >>> Likin’ tha extended-soundin’ intro,
here; definitely nice!! Oh, this definitely sounds betta than usual, even with
tha male vocals! Tha “Aiden” = “Aiden” Jude powers, it feels like! Common
qualities combinin’!! Definitely likin’ that chorus a whole lot!! Might be
Bruno’s best single! Even betta than tha gettin’
“high” “Sun Goes Down”!! Great-soundin’ drop, too! Oh, it’s like a push to tha
better!! Really feelin’ this a whole lot & wishes nothin’ but tha BEST
for its exposure!! Life’s a party in tha 30’s!! Been reviewin’ PO since tha 10’s—teens!!
My Rating: 4.9
04.
CAZZETTE feat. Parson James “Missing You”
ICONS
& PRMD, here, with, according to MCD samples, a decent/below-average one fa
me? >>> Sounds like slightly-better beats, or tha same quality, as
Axwell /\ Ingrosso’s… Not too crazy about tha vocals (Mr. “Stole The Show”) but
I think this sounds betta than I expected… Kinda glad that they’re a lil’ faster
than some of their previous collabz, but it’s still an okay drop/vibe… My Rating: 3.7
05.
Landis “Ain’t Drinking Alone”
Oh,
boy!! Looks like an interestin’ one, courtesy of Thrive Music!! A good look,
here, for this DJ…!! >>> Tryna feel a lil’ surprised by these vocals…;
will it make it happen? Sounds like a hot chorus… Sounds like a randomly
broken-up drop… Has a good flow; just thought it’d sound more powerful…!
Surprised how tha male vocals surpass tha drop’s quality…! Still, a good flow
fa some nice weatha! My Rating: 4.4
06.
Ferry Corsten “I Love You”
Oh,
boy, x307!! 3:07, via Flashover & a 132 BPM track, here!! Prolly on an
even-higher level, here…!!! >>> Definitely sounds pure & not in
tha typical-soundin’ vibe…! Yeah, I thought this would be hot but it’s
definitely surpassin’ expectations!! I think everyone should be nice and
fast/different like this…! Oh, lovin’ every second of this…! Vocals almost
sounds like a sample from a past song… Like, sometimes, I fall into that Toni
Braxon “I Heart You” lil’, “I Love You”, just like this title! I think this gon
be a ***PERFECT*** one, just like Mr. Perfecto…! Now, tha challenge iz on for
tha real tie-breaker!! Last time,
Oakenfold lost to Audien + 3LAU feat. Victoria Zaro “Hot Water”. This gon be a
close, hot competition…! Can’t imagine what I gon pick…, or if a 3rd
one gon appear…!! If a 3rd one appears, that means it gon be tha 1st
time a review had three ***PERFECT RATING***s since I reviewed tha late Young
Ready/Racked-Up Ready, outta Baton Rouge, LA’s 2009 That’s How I’m Coming CD, that I reviewed on March 27, 2009…! But
yeah, lovin’ EVERY PART of this one, right here!! My
Rating: 5.0
07.
Backstreet Boys “Don’t Go Breaking My Heart (Dave Audé Radio Remix)”
RCA,
here, with a Backstreet comeback…! Always exciting, especially with me livin’
that celeb life, these dayz! Glad tha mainstream appreciates…? DA showin’ more
luv to BSB, just like their 10/09 appearance…! Boy, I got dat memory!! >>> I know I may get funny wit
certain hit-mixers. However, I think this a good one, too; feel-good vibe…! Oh,
tha chorus iz so cheap but I feel tha vibe in a dance way…; crazy… I’ono, just
really likin’ tha remixed-music vibe, here, despite tha chorus “cheddar”—that’s
“cheese!” Get it…? Lol… That joke by me, just now! Live @ 9:16 PM!! Racks!! My Rating: 4.5
08.
Jonas Blue feat. Jack & Jack “Rise (Eden
Prince Club Remix)”
Capitol,
here… I always like “Club Mix” in an ID better than today’s “Club Remix”. Then
again, I get it ‘cause most mixes, these dayz, don’t have “Radio Edit” or “Club
Mix”, etc. It’s more of just a Remixed
world… >>> It’s a lil’ bit of a guilty pleasure, but it’s still a nice
lil’ remix! It’s all about tha growth! Tha long 20’s I had, featurin’ some
great Promo Only moments! August 19, 2014, 1st time I emailed you
guys about a review… April 24, 2015, when I was featured in tha eNewsletter!
And, more countless ones! It’s believin’ & success that triggered that
vibe! That’s what I always have in
me…! This has good vocals, just like Jonas’ usual vibes wit males… And, nice
job showin’ it luv, Eden! My Rating: 4.5
09.
Christina Aguilera feat. Ty Dolla $ign “Accelerate (John J-C Carr Remix)”
RCA,
here, with X-Tina… J-C & tha whole JC initials? Nice…! >>> Oh,
definitely nice! Luv how she mentions her “day-ones!” This sounds pretty nice
with tha content, random dude in tha background? …Pharrell? Naw, Future…? Tha
J-C…? Lol… Definitely feelin’ everything! Content, remixed-vibe, random
comeback vibe, vocals, vibes, random feature…! Oh, I see… Ty Dolla $ign snuck
in… I know it ain’t 2 Chainz, lol… My
Rating: 4.7
10.
Martin Solveig “My Love”
Casablanca, here, with Solveig &
120… >>> Could I be surprised that it gon be good…? Yeah, I’m
definitely feelin’ this vibe! He came up with somethin’ nice, here… Great job
with these vocals and this “love” vibe; gotta “love” life fa tha 30’s…! Music
fa a 120…? A thumbs up! My Rating: 4.4
½time: A 4.5-rated CD!! If only those two
decent ones were somethin’ else (#01 & #04, lol), we prolly woulda been in
tha… 4.7 range—damn, 1/10 each 3.7’er!! But yeah, a lot hotter than I
expected…! It just feels really real hearin’ these POs in my 30’s…!!
11.
Kacey Musgraves “High Horse (Kue Radio Remix)”
[No
preview; just gonna hear it and not look…] >>> Wow, a lot better &
more-pure than I expected…!! OMG, know this special voice…! Mandy…? That’s my 1st
guess… Then again, I just gon enjoy this… Just looked at tha label and if it’s
MCA Nashville & Capitol, here, ain’t that on a country tip? This, I feel,
iz way hotter than that…!! *Looks at
ID…* Wow, exactly for my current, 4.9-rated pre-rating! Definitely an excellent
job at absorbin’ my attention…!!! My
Rating: 4.9
12.
PNAU feat. Kira Divine “Changa”
3:04,
here, with etcetc, this time… Different from tha AfterCluv ones…? I know this gon
be good… >>> Yeah, definitely sounds just as hot, if not, hotter than
tha previous songs…! Still think they goin’ with their Kira Divine on their
tracks… Oh, just luvin’ tha whole vibe between tha lyrics, upbeatness &
unstoppableness…! Lots of “ness”!! Definitely locked & chained into tha
consistency…! I’ono, I think, for this time, we need to tie that ***PERFECT***
tie-breaker…! Lol! My Rating: 5.0
13.
Mono Mind “LaLaLove”
ADA
& BMG, here, followin’ up their corny
previous single, lol! “…Marvingate!!” Can’t imagine what this’ll be…
>>> Kinda like how I felt with their previous song, that 1st
listen sounds special… I think this may be tha best outta tha three singles, at
least… I’ono, just seems like a positive, inescapable vibe!! I like how their
characters come together on tha songs…! Think this tha less-cheddarific outta tha three MM songs, lol! My Rating: 4.9
14.
SYML x Sam Feldt “Where’s My Love (Sam Feldt Edit)”
Spinnin’,
here… I’ono, with tha way tha luck’s goin’ wit this CD, I feel a good vibe… My
anticipation’s sayin’, “No,” but tha vibe iz sayin’, “Hell yeah…?” >>>
Sam’s quiet-soundin’ vibe, as usual… Sounds real nice with these calm, male
vocals… Yeah, definitely nice, here… Likin’ tha music vibe and how it mixes a
calm vocal… My Rating: 4.7
15.
Mandy Jiroux “Running Out Of You”
Just
lookin’ at tha title, here… *Checks…* I think it might be my Mandy…!
>>> Yeah, it could definitely
be, with this hot-soundin’ vibe! Oh, just feels like a hot vibe with her
hotness, as well as tha music, most definitely…! *Checks label…* Oh, fooled me,
again? NHMM! Surprises…! *Pre-Rates, checks full ID…* Different label approach,
but it’s Mandy!! My Rating: 4.8
16.
AFSHeeN feat. Angel Taylor “Would It Be Ok”
Be
Yourself, as Mr. SHeeN says, fa his releases…! Neva
know what to expect with tha vibe but there’s always somethin’ special to link
up his tracks with… I have a feelin’ we got anotha one, right here, right
now…!! >>> Sounds like a nice, smooth track… At times, “Even
superheroes need tha day off…” Actually, I’m not that; I’m stronger & more-consistent than that…! Releasing
videos every single day—commercials! Crazy! A whopping 79 dayz in a row of
releasing a commercial! “Gotta have it in ya for tha 30’s!!,” as I say! With
that bein’ said, no dayz “off!!” That
chorus sounds pretty nice! A nice lil’ slow jam that tries with awesome
effort…! Calm, hot-soundin’ drop…! Wish there were better times and not a 2nd
call-off from my boy, Doe-Doe, during tha “Uncrazy” times… My Rating: 4.6
17.
Bakermat “Lion”
Here
comes anotha surprise/blind review…! Prolly aight, tho… Guessin’ I know…?
>>> Naw, completely different…! Sounds like a disco-like track but
definitely awesome, in its own wayz…! I’ono, but hella catchy in a unique dance way…!! Sounds like a familiar
artist; definitely growth or somethin’! Really feelin’ this vibe to tha fullest, lol…! That “lion” and random
part from tha intro & about 2:08 in sounds like it was imported from tha
Import Gods or somethin’! *Pre-Rating…!!* *Reveals ID…* Holy, fuck…! My rating
was far-high from what I was
expectin’ this ta be…! Definitely worth every point, tho! Sounds like a hot-ass comeback fa a 120’er—BPM on tha
rise, right quick, lol…! Ultra! My
Rating: 4.8
18.
Whethan feat. Oh Wonder “Superlove”
Big
Beat & Atlantic, here… After their previous, not-so-popular “High” wit Ms.
Lipa, here comes this, on PO… >>> It
sounds better and much-more dance-y than tha slow “High”… Tha vocals sound like
they flow great with this more-dance vibe… Hearin’ a lil’ bit of trap but it
more upbeat than a slow one… My Rating: 4.2
19.
SAYMYNAME feat. Karra “The Most”
That
content warning’s trippin’ me out, fa Karra…! Courtesy of Thrive, here, let’s
see how a new collab wit a 100 BPM vibe gon do… I expected anotha BIG JACKPOT, just like some previous
surprises…!! >>> Yeah, definitely feelin’ this euphoric vibe…!!
Definitely some exotic lyrics, here; luv
it…!! Excellent-soundin’ drop!! “More
Than Ever”, “Quicksand”, “Where We Are” w/Ryos, “Smoke & Fire”, this?
Definitely on anotha level, easily…!! Definitely feelin’ tha vibe Karra
chooses—“takin’ control…!” That’s what I’m doin’ fa tha 30’s…!! Oh, Karra LUVS ***PERFECT RATING***s!!! My Rating: 5.0
20.
NERVO “What Would You Do For Love”
BMG,
here, bein’ tha only one under 100 BPM ta be on here… I’m glad we’re
somewhat-faster… I hope we stay that way ‘cause this CD came by surprise…!!
Now, I think we gon end it in an okay way… See, they finally reached a height
wit their “Best Friend” collab…! >>> An unexpected male… Sounds pretty
nice wit this trap-soundin’ vibe! They definitely know “what” to “do for” success/bein’ on tha rise…! My Rating: 4.4
Overall: Wow! This took 2:40 to
review! That’s 4:20 boxed! Ironic luck fa tha 30’s…? Only two tracks were under
a 4.0 and tha rest were like HIDDEN
SUMMER TREASURE/TORCHES!!! Think it definitely deserved its place in 2018,
after all tha disappointments…! Makes me look forward ta what’s next in tha
world…!
