Alright, if your talking about the PREMIUMIX album, I was very very
lukewarm to it at the first go round, but this I had occasion to rent a
car, hooked up the discman, and figured hell Monday should be good for
early morning vibe. Well I was blown away by some of the mixes I think
track 4 and 5 with some D&B with heavy bottom end. At times she gets
really in to the Flora Purim type Scream/sing, which is hot. Problem is
some of her vocals come in around incredible beats and just feel too POP.
Almost like new Madonna, so it's that weird mix of good beats and sounds
with an overproduced vocal...
I think that if you are a dj, there are some HOT tracks on the album, in
fact the songs at the end are new and not REMIXES, and very jazzy. If you
like Monday in general, it's probably worth it, hell of a lot better than
Groovement. Otherwise I'd say buyer beware.
