I've always been a fan of Hed Kandi, but mainly I was into the Winter Chill collection, and a few from Beach House. Finally, however, I decided it was time to live a little and see what else Hed Kandi had to offer. So I picked up Back to Love 03.04.

I wasn't quite sure what to expect. Would it be romantic love ballads? Or some dancey house music? I found out, though, that it wasn't really either. It is definately house music, but in a quirky fun kinda way. The cover shows a girl on a bicycle licking a lolipop, and that's really exactly what this album sounds like. It's not dance music, it's not chill music, it's funky house music, with a lolipop twist.

As always, Hed Kandi features ''Highlights'' that really make their albums better than any others. On CD1 track 3, 8, 10, 11, 12 are absolutely amazing. on CD2 ''Ain't No Love (Ain't No Use)'' steals the show.

Hed Kandi fans know that just because there's only 6 or 7 Highlight songs doesn't mean the rest is trash. There's not a single track that would require a skip. Some are just awesome, and some are just really really good.

The latest BACK TO LOVE compilation does not disapoint. This series boasts club hits from the late 80s to early 90s. Great fun to listen to and dance with!

There's a few things I like about Hed Kandi, and this compilation is a good example. For one, they use different artists you don't always hear on other compilations, so there is definately variety. Secondly, with most Hed Kandi releases you can expect some excellent cover songs that are done tastefully and will keep you hitting the repeat button. A few mentionables in clude Dina Carroll & Quartz's take on Carole King's "It's Too Late" which is very nice, Double Trouble doing a cover of "Love Don't Live Here Anymore", Secret Life doing a cover of Stevie Wonder's "As Always" to name a few.

Another thing I like is you are bound to find some rare tracks. In the liner notes it says that Primal Scream's "Loaded" (Terry Farley Remix) was only on limited pressings, and that the Lisa Stansfield and Blue Zone track "Big Thing" is a very rare b-side that was hard to get a hold of. But most importantly, the music is great.

Some of my favorites include a nice house remix of Ce Ce Peniston's "We Got A Love Thang", a great mix of Sam Ellis "Club Lonely", Dionne "Come Get My Lovin", Funky Green Dog Ftrom Outer Space "Reach For Me", from disc one. Disc two (other than the ones I've listed) highlights include SWV "Right Here", Innocence "Natural Thing", but the real highlight is the shiny disco number by Sub Sub feat Melanie Williams "Ain't No Love (Ain't No Use)", a highlight for sure.

Definately worth picking up and adding to your collection!
