Dragonfly Classix Vol.2 - Various Artists

Advantages: Songs, easy listening ability
Disadvantages: Covers

...Wow. I did have the original Clubland Classix CD, but after hearing it while at my friend's house in the holidays I realized that this would be a CD I would like to own so when it came out, I rushed to the store to get a copy! Nowadays, people say that music like this is a load of rubbish. I have to admit, quite a lot of it is, but this CD doesn't just have songs released within the past year. We have songs from the early 2000's on here! I bought this from Tesco's when they sold it for under £10 (which was amazing, considering it contains 3CDS and it was only in it's second week of it's release. Tesco raised the price to £11 something the week after). CD One: We have songs from Cascada, Lasgo, Scooter, Ian Van Dahl, Darren Styles, Styles & Breeze and Sugababes to name a few. Some of the tracks have been remixed, however, they aren... Read review

Advantages: Songs, mix/range of artists
Disadvantages: None

...a party. The songs are amazing. You have LMC vs U2 with "Take Me To The Clouds Above". I don't know how to define this song, it's not overdone with synthesizers and effects. You have Ultrabeat's uplifting track "Feelin' Fine", Motorcycle's "As The Rush Comes"(quite a moody and dark tune), Lasgo's "Surrender", Kelly Llorenna's powerful vocals on "This Time I Know It's For Real", Northern Heightz's dancefloor hit "Look At Us", Despina Vandi's sensational and rhythmic "Gia", Tiësto's "Traffic" and Tube & Berger and Chrissie Hynde's collaboration on "Straight Ahead". I believe they've got the right mix of artists on here, providing a variety of styles within the "dance" genre. As always, there are some naff tracks on here from one hit wonders or people you've never heard of, but the balance of these and all the artists & songs listed above makes up... Read review

Advantages: Good tracks, bonus material
Disadvantages: A few too many mixes

...Have already rated the previous album (put your hands up vol.1) and many of my points apply to this album aswell. After continually listening to the first album i decided to buy this one aswell and again i was not disappointed. There is again a brilliant mix of tracks over 3 CD's including several remixes and club mixes such as that of Camille Jonesvs Fedded le Grande-The Creeps (club mix). This i believe to be one of the best but there are 62 other tunes that you will just want to get up and dance to. Again, as like the previous album there is bonus content on CD1 including 3 awesomw music videos including Fedde Le Grande-Put your hands up and Alex Gaudino-Destination Calabria. This is a really nice touch to the album and makes it a real gem.... Read review
