This is a great cd!I`m glad Jump5 decided to make one final cd with Libby before she left the group!This is one of the best remix cd`s ever!I love the tracks that`s just Jump5 goofing off backstage!It also includes remixes of songs from all their previous cd`s exept their Christmas one,All The Joy In The World.Here`s a review of each track:
1.Start Jumpin`(Double Dutch Remix)-A pretty good remix of a song from the first cd!I`m glad they decided to make a new version of this song,cause when you listen to the original to much,it gets annoying!
2.Wonderful(Chunky Style)-I love this one!A more rock/pop sound of Wonderful!It`s got a great beat,and personnaly,I think it`s better than the original!
3.Pressure(Berlin Mix)-Really great!Deffinately 5 stars!A great remix from a song from their cd,Accelerate!
4.Messing With Me-The first track where Jump5`s just goofing off backstage!Pretty funny!I like it alot!
5.Do Ya(Rec Room Mix)-Oh Yeh!WONDERFUL remix of Do Ya!I fell in love with it the first time I listened to it!5 Stars!
6.Spinnin Around(Whirlwind Mix)-I was kinda mad that a rap singer kinda took over the song,but it is good for a Hip-Hop dance class!Anyway,it is still pretty good!4 Stars!
7.All I Can Do(The Historemix)-I love this track!It`s the first remix from their cd,All The Time In The World!It`s got a great beat,and so does the original!
8.Throw Your Hands Up(Rec Room Mix)-Great!I love the beat at the beggining!I think I might like this one a little better than the original!
9.Beat Box Session-Another track of Jump5 goofing off backstage!The one`s even funnier!I like this one a bit better!
10.Joyride(Great People Remix)-I like how it doesn`t have as much beat to it and you can hear Libby singing more,cause she does great singing it!5 Stars!
11.Why Do I Do(Bestes Remix)-Maybe better than the original!I know it`s got a better beat!
12.We Are Family(Ghostmix)-Kinda creepy!(Get it?....GHOSTmix?)
13.Celebration(Original Production)-I`m so glad they made a re-do of this hit song!I Love it!

Well,theres my review of the last Jump5 cd with Libby,Mix It Up!Hope it helped!Deffinately reccomended for any Jump5 fan who has their earlier cd`s!You`ll want to hear Libby`s fantastic voice one more time in a new way!

this was AWESOME! i own some other remixes, but this is the best by far! jump5 is an awesome band, and they did a great job remixing this. if you have jump5's other albums, you'll love the remix!. my favorite is "throw your hands up"!

I wrote a review before.
When I listened to the samples, I thought they were great.
I listen to them now and they changed.
I still think the cd is great but Spinnin' Around isn't as good as the original. Beat Box is great. It's Jump5 doing their own great wrap.

Start Jumpin-5/5 it starts out funny but its one of my favs i love it alot!
Wonderful-5/5 i love it! its better than the original one, chris's part sounds cool
Pressure-5/5 its really cool, it sounds like something you'd hear at like a dance floor kinda place its awesome though
messing with me-5/5 funny!
do ya-5/5 REALLY fun to listen to, and it sounds awesome
spinnin around-3.5/5 not one of my favs, it sounds kinda umm..i just dont like it i mean i kinda like it its alright but not one i enjoy listening to, but i love the chorus i just dont like the dude rappin its also too slow
all i can do-5/5 i love it! it sounds nothing like the original all i can do
throw ur hands up-5/5 love it its awesome sounds soo cool, great song to sing along and dance to
beat box session-5/5 omgomgomg this is soosoo hilarious!
joyride-5/5 there has already been another remix of this on their 2nd album, but this sounds soo good i love the chorus
why do i do-5/5 i love this soo soo much! it sounds soo good! it makes u wanna get up and dance and sing along to it
we are family-5/5 i was wondering y ppl hate it so much,i mean i love it it just sounds kinda sad, unlike the original one
celebration-5/5 i love it it is much better than the old one
14-24 each track is 4 seconds of silience
hidden track-5/5 this..is...so..FUNNY!

Jump5: MIX IT UP wasn't a bad album. It's not all that impressive when it comes down to it but not to bad either. The one I'd have to be most disapointed in was Spinnin' Around. Changing a sugary pop song into a Jay-Z sounding rap doesn't quite work for me. But I did enjoy the change from acoustic to dance pop on songs like "Do Ya", "Why do I do", and "Wonderful". The "We are Family" remix is somewhat creepy when compared to the original but still kind of fun. I wouldn't recommend this album unless you are a DIE HARD Jump5 fan though. I hope Jump5's next album comes soon. I'm eager to hear their new member, Natasha deliver new sound to the group.

Start Jumpin' is a fun and fast beat song just like Do Ya. Start Jumpin' is a excercise song and they're both fun to listen to.
Wonderful is more of a happy and cheery song that might put you in a good mood.
Pressure is a good song because it has good lyrics. The message is: I'm trying to do the right thing so, don't PRESSURE me.
Messing with me is Jump5 goofing off and having a good time.

I hope you enjoyed my review!

This new CD by Jump5 is simply awesome. I love it! I recently found it at a store and just HAD to buy it. As soon as I popped it into my CD player, I knew at once I would love every second of it. The remix music is funky, totally upbeat, and it's extremely hard to resist breaking out in dance! Please, listen to this CD and see for yourself! I think you'll really, really like it.

I'm not a huge fan of remixes, but I bought MIX IT UP anyway...I love almost every song on the CD.

1. Start Jumpin' - It starts off a bit weird, but I like this version more than the original. 9/10
2.Wonderful - I love the original version of Wonderful, because it's SOOOOO pretty. This one's a lot faster (duh, it's a remix) but it's even better! 10/10
3.Pressure - The remix of Pressure sounds like something you would hear on a dance music station or playing in a nightclub. 6/10
4.Messing with Me - This is just Jump5 fooling around in the studio. It's VERY funny. It features Libby ("The Star"), which is nice, because this is her last album. 10/10
5.Do Ya - Thankfully, after Pressure being kind of weird, Do Ya is great!!! It sounds even better than the version off Accelerate. Which is saying a lot, because that is a GREAT version. 10/10
6.Spinnin Around - This was Jump5's first single, and it sounds a lot like their older stuff, even remixed. 9/10
7.All I Can Do - I don't know why they re-remixed All I Can Do, because they remixed it on "All the Time in the World." This is a better version, though. 10/10
8.Throw Your Hands Up - This sounds a bit more laid back than the original. It's cool and has a great beat. 10/10
9.Beat Box Session - Yet another clip of Jump5 just fooling around in the studio. I like this more than Messing with Me. 10/10
10.Joyride - After hearing 3 different versions of this song, I am convinced that there is no such thing as a BAD version of Joyride. 9/10
11.Why Do I Do - This was my favorite song off Accelerate, but I was kind of disappointed in the remix. It doesn't have the same feel as the other version. 5/10
12.We Are Family - This is my favorite song on the CD! It sounds like it belongs on their first CD (Jump5). 10/10
13.Celebration - This isn't a remix. Celebration was only on the Kim Possible soundtrack for a long time, and they decided to ass it to the MIX IT UP disk. I LOVE this song. 10/10
Tracks 14-24 are 4 second long clips of silence.
25.Hidden Track - Wow. This is weird. I don't know what else to say about it. It's very strange, but funny too. 8/10

I recommend MIX IT UP to die hard fans of Jump5. But if you think they're just okay, I recommend getting Accelerate.

Overall grade - A-

Some of Jump5's catchiest songs have now been remixed into Euro-pop dance mixes in their newest CD "Mix it Up". Seemingly produced for the most loyal Jump5 listeners, the album also features three filler tracks entitled "Messing With Me", "Beat Box Session", and "Hidden Track" with the five group members (Brittany, Chris, Brandon, Lesley, and then-member Libby) messing around in the recording studio. The CD also includes the song "Celebration" which had previously only been available on the Kim Possible Soundtrack. The remixes are enjoyable, but the album is by no means a must-have for anyone but the most loyal listeners. Also, don't be fooled by Amazon.com's track listings. Tracks 14-24 are blank tracks with track 25 being the Hidden track.

All the tracks on this CD rock, altough I was dissapointed to see they only have 11 actual music peices. 3 are speaking, 11 blank. Hence, I give this a rating of 4. I could not listen to the samples, so I never knew. I bit of a cheat if you ask me. But, the actual MUSIC rocks. All the speaking was really anoyying, and the blank even more. =/ I hope Jump5 NEVER does this again. I swear....I will complain if they do this again.
