Teddy Riley at his best!, June 12, 2007
This review is from: Don't Want to Fall (Audio CD)
When this single first came out back in like 1990, it was when the whole "New Jack Swing" scene was reaching it stride. I saw an interview with Teddy Riley years ago saying he thought about quitting the music business, before he did this remix. Fortunately he didn't.
The remixes and dubs on this maxi-cd (thank god I found it), encompasses all the signature sounds and breaks that made Teddy's production such a hit in the 90's. The two tracks that stand out for me are track 2, The T.R. Dub and track 6, the T.R. Club-A-Dub, clocking in at a staggering 7:23. With the first dub, its more of the instrumental of the remix, with vocal dubs from Jane Child, and Teddy and his engineer cutting a chopping it lovely.
The T.R. Club-A-Dub is where Mr. Riley gets loose demonstrating his skills on the keys, and dramatic drum programs. And what I appreaciate most about this track (and all the beats on this single), is you get that classic breakdown in the beat, that today's 21st century R&B/Hip Hop songs just don't provide.
If you are fan of the late 80's/early 90's New Jack Swing sound, do yourself a favor and shell out a couple dollars,euros,pesos and get this cd single.
The knife feels good

This review is from: Don't Want to Fall (Audio CD)
This CD should come with a warning: the single/video/radio version is not on this Maxi-single. And it does not have 7 different remixes. One is an a cappella version (of the remix). Three are dubs/instrumentals. The last track is another song (which I did not enjoy). Do the math [8 - 1 - 3 - 1 = 3] and what remains is 3 versions that are not accommodating to a trip down early-1990s-music memory lane, and are not that different from one another. So again, unless the remixes are what U want - DON'T BUY THIS CD. If I already had the original version, this Maxi-single would not have been such a waste of my money.
