Notes

"Here in Detroit it is very difficult to fill the void left when Motown headed for sunny California. Multitudes of talente, musicians, singers, writers, vocalists and other people associated with the musical industry were abandoned. Their hopes and dreams were left to die also. We here at Happy records are determined to keep those dreams alive on our productions from Detroit because without hope none of us have anything. We will be featuring various artists on our productions from Detroit. We hope you can hear the emotion in our records because this is not a hobby for us it is our destiny. Thank you for buying Happy Records."

Review by braveheart666 Jun 17, 2009
An absolute gem of a track. I only discovered Happy Records recently, Mad Mikes excursions in into deep house show a different side to UR and I am loving it.

Don't You Want It is head and shoulders above the rest in the staple, its one of those tracks where everything seems to align to create a fantastic harmony... the build is long and great in the mix, the percussion of the synths, the chords and Davinas deep house crescendo of wild and positive lyrics just create a fantastically complete house track. Its demands high prices, but in my opinion its easily worth it for such a seminal track.

Its a winner for sure.
Rated 5/5

The ultimate mix between slammin yet elegant Detroit tech-house and a really sexy garage voice (no tiring diva here!). Mad Mike's production reaches perfection, with a beautifully dramatic piano progression and this unforgettable synth-line causing a mayhem on any dancefloor. Must-have, and one of Laurent Garnier's all-time faves, summarizing perfectly his DJ style in my opinion. This is sexy as hell.
