Since I got this CD the other day, my ears have been feasting to the point of overindulgence. It's catchy, it's fun, and it's diverse. It ranges from tracks like "The Longest Road" that Armin van Buuren plays on his weekly radio show to tracks that would be played on commercial radio.

The "Angelicus" remix is absolutely banging, "Fade Away" is ridiculously catchy, and the cinematic and fresh remix of Dengue Fever's "Sleepwalking Through the Mekong" couldn't possibly be any better.

My only fear is that I'll listen to it so much in the coming weeks that I'll burn myself out on it. Check out Morgan's podcast on iTunes; there isn't too much there, but there is a short video of him showing his bedroom studio in LA.

Morgan Page really knows how to take a song that was already decent and turn it into something eleventy billion times better. I never ever imagined I would feel like rocking out to some of the artists listed on these tracks (I've heard Nelly Furtado's original "Maneater" song and loathed it, but Morgan Page has made the song into the way it ought to have been from the beginning). I've played "Elevate" on endless repeat for weeks and to this day find it to be the perfect party music, driving music, housecleaning music, anytime music. If you're up for some infectious beats, then you need to check out this album.

*** It should be noted (Amazon, you need to fix this!) that track number 6 is NOT "Maybe You're Right [5.1 Mix]" by the Barenaked Ladies. It is "Nervous in the Light of Dawn" by Leigh Nash remixed by Morgan Page. ***

This is a really great CD. Not your run of the mill vocals. Alot of great rythmn and dance beats. Wonderful for parties or get togethers. You will not regret buying this one.
