Ultravision Vol.2 - Various Artists

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: Songs, easy listening ability
Disadvantages: Covers

...'t that bad. I don't normally like mixes of a song unless it's been remixed by some really good producers. We have a copy of Katy Perry's "I Kissed A Girl" and One Republic's "Apologize". Unfortunately, they don't live up to the standard of the originals. I don't think they work very well in this style. They don't have the same feelings and impressions intended by the original artists. Apart from that, this CD earns 4/5 CD Two: More of the same. This time it's Girls Aloud, Rihanna, PCD, Infernal & N-Dubz. I really like the mix of "When I Grow Up", it's still got the amusement the original had and it hasn't been destroyed. We have another copy of a song (I Think We're Alone Now). I've not really listened to this song much, probably because I've never been keen on this song. It sounds like the Girls Aloud version with a heavier beat. I love... 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
