I got my CD in the mail today (woo hoo).
1)
O-zone ZZZZZ this mix offers nothing new to this song.
2)
Manuel - All The Best Man this is the future of eurobeat. Fantastic powerful upbeat dramatic fun track. They also bring back some great drum sounds from the 80's that I haven't heard used in a while. I can hear Rick Astley singing a track like this. Manuel's voice is in great control this time. Sounds like Dave Rodgers a bit though. This one will be on the top of the best tracks of 2005 for me. 5ive *****
3)
Queen 26 - All The Best WOW super cute track from Delta, written and produced by Laurent Newfield. This is a brand new sound for Delta and I hope it's a new direction. It's sounds disco house and eurobeat all the same time. 4our ****
4)
Powerful T. - Original Sin Well, standard, though great Powerful T. type song. Sounds like his vocals have been pitched down just a bit. I dont' think this one will stick with me as well as some of his other tracks.
4our ****
5)
Captain America - Space Fighter Ken Laszlo is back again for LED Records. This one sounds dated, though all Manic Eurobeat fans will like this one 3hree ***
6)
Delta Queens - Blue What a great song from Delta. It's really messy and the synths go all over the place. Clara's on vocals. But with all the crazy synths running around and key changes, it's not a bad song.
4our ****
7)
Van TK - Never Gimme Up This sounds like an A Beat C song. This is f-ing fantastic. Van TK is my favorite singer from SCP now. This one is just like his last tracks, slower, more mature, bright and shining. Love this style of music. I can see this song being played at a club, disco, lounge or block party. 5ive *****
Go Go Girls - I Wanna Be Fat Written by Elena Goddi Frattini is another great GGG song. Lyrics are really original. "French Fries, Milk Shake, I look at me and I feel okay". The lyrics are really about feeling good about yourself. 4our****
9) Franz Tornado - One Night With Bazooka Belly Dancers I am not a fan of HiNRG Attacks male vocalists. This one is not too bad though. The sound quality is really bad though. 3hree ***
10)
Karen - She's The One WOWOWOWOW Such a classy and elegant track. Karen's voice is top notch this time. She wrote this song with Luigi and Dave. The chorus sounds a bit familiar though, but I can't place it right now. I never figure out who "She" is in the song. Not your typical Eurobeat song. 5ive *****
11)
Nando - Toyboy Great intro to this song. Then it kinda falls apart but manages to pick itself back up again. The synths are a bit annoying though. Not too bad, but I love the bridge and chorus 4our ****
12) ZaZa - I Wanna Be With You 0ero
13) Symbol - Lonely Boy 1ne *
14) Leslie Perrish - No Matter What 1ne*
15) Nuage - Still Love Already heard this one before, but it's not the best Nuage track 3hree ***
16)
Ace - My Valentine I'm SO in love with this track. So melodic and moving. Ace's voice is great and is very restrained. Perfect for Valentine's day. Love the lines "When the chips are down, I turn around and badly need your tender love, you'll be by my side". 5ive *****
17) Sheila - Best Time For Love 1ne* Time really needs to hang it up.
18)
Freddie Rogers - Dance To The Music Well the intro is very disney sounding. You can hear Nuage on background vocals. Is this his step-mom? Freddie has a very bright career ahead of him. This is a great track. His voice hasn't broken yet. He's a great singer though and can hold his own with his mom and pop. We need a song from the entire Rodgers family now. 5ive *****
