This is a great record right here. I bought this when i saw the words Daft Punk and Michael Jackson. I was not disappointed. Rock With You gets a very funky bassline sure to get and dance floor filled! I have no idea why it's on the B side because this is the best track. The Jamiroquai mashup (Around The World / Alright) is pretty short so you'd have to mix it out quickly. Very good stuff!

This is a very amateur debut album. I bought this CD direct from H-Machine's website for $8 and I must say that it wasn't a total waste of money. I would pay $8 just for Eye Spy alone. I've loved that song ever since I first heard it in Dance Dance Revolution Ultramix 2 for the original XBOX game console. Some other notable tracks on this disc are Floating Pig and Astro Radio. Other than that, everything is very bland and repetitive. I'm not bashing Dave on this one. He has improved A LOT lately with his newest remixes of Tsugaru and Exotic Ethnic, but this is just an early talent showcase.

This CD brought the hottest and most diverse compilation of tracks to my ears for the year 2007. When I ordered this CD, I had some very vague idea of what was in store for me. Being that this IS a Dancemania release, I was in for a great hour of amazing music. That's pretty much a given that goes along with any Dancemania release but other than that, there were only a few tracks that I was already familiar with on this disc (Dub-I-Dub, FANTASY, Shooting Star, and Hoppy) so I really was taking a risk on buying this disc. At the time of release, I was listening to HosTrance which is an OK release but it has a lot of overlapping loud yelling that really kills the music. I was a little skeptical.

Now when I finally get to take a listen to this bad boy, it starts out as I expected. A new school eurobeat compilation. Although, when you get to track 08 prepare to flashback! We're taking a trip back to the early 90's Dance scene. The vibe continues until track 12 which is a Hard Rave style cover of an 80's tune. From there, the style slowly progresses into Eurodance and then comes the big catch...Some of the world's finest new trance. The mix of these styles was so clean, so smooth that I actually forgot this WAS a Eurobeat CD. I actually said to myself around track 13 "Where did the eurobeat go?".

I'd have to say that every track so far has been special and I don't hate any of them. When I got to Grand Shake, I could tell that this is the CD's best selling point. I haven't heard such a melodic and epic trance track in a long time. This instantly became my favorite trance tune. It really brings the album together. This is the first Dancemania release the song appears on. Please avoid listening to it on HosTrance 2. The song gets drowned out by many Japanese men yelling things.

Continuing the ever-changing genre rollercoaster, the compilation heads toward Club music with THE best song to carry the Super Mario sound effect gimmick. Followed up by a similar song that totes Street Fighter sound effects. Then, we can tell this ride is nearing the terminal as we are brought back to Eurobeat.

I would recommend this album to fans of ALL electronic genres. If you tend to favor Trance over eurobeat, this CD is not for you. This is for those who appreciate every genre equally. Chalk up another smash to the Dancemania collection.
