By	H. YUEN "suzanne" (Fort Lauderdale, FL USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I never heard about David Guetta but right after I heard his song "Love is Gone" I liked it a lot... Then I listened to "Baby When the light" it was just sooo amazing that i have come to the conclusion that this guy is awesome. I highly recommend the CD. Listen to Late Night Alumni as well...! it's really good too. (just search "Late night Alumni")

5.0 out of 5 stars Upbeat tracklist with excellent vocal tracks, December 23, 2007

By	L. Koch "Ministry of Sound Lover" (chicago, IL) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Poplife (Audio CD)

I'm usually more of a fan of compilation CDs from MOS or Hed Kandi that have strong vocal tracks, but after I heard 'Love Is Gone' I decided to take a chance on the CD - what a great decision - it's a staple in my current playlist.

If you like your house music with upbeat vocals, you'll probably throw 'Baby when the Light' 'Everytime We Touch' & 'Delirious' into your playlist.

Or, if you like your music a little dark and the vocals a bit more dirty/deep, check out 'Do Something Love' and 'You're not Alone.'

This review is from: Poplife (Audio CD)

Guetta doesn't hold back with the hard electro house beats on this latest album. It's definitely a dance stomper, but I actually miss some of the more `new wave' synthpop sounding tracks that were on Blaster, like songs in the Depeche Mode styles of "The World is Mine" and "In Love with Myself." There are a couple of nods to retro 80s stuff: an updated electro feeling cover of Public Image Limited's "This is not a Love Song" with an imitation Lydon vocalist, and the pumpin' male vocal track "Always", which samples the catchy background of the Tears for Fears classic new wave track "Change".

The disc is heavy on those tracks Guetta specializes in--tracks that sound like alternative rock tracks mixed into dance songs, with hard male vocals. Love is Gone comes in two mixes, the original mix, and the more raucous, bass heavy Rister & Garraud mix, both of which are dance slammers, making it hard to choose. "Every time we Touch" is thankfully NOT a cover of the Cascada song. "Tomorrow Can Wait" is nothing special, but "Winner of the Game" is a rockin' electro house stomper with heavy new wave male vocal. "Never Take Away My Freedom" is heavy noise and harsh male vocal, but the sample of "Don't You Want Me" by Felix wins you over. "Joan of Arc" is more of the same, and as a bonus, you get the recently remixed and re-popularized guetta classic "Love don't Let Me Go." While a handful of these gritty male vocal tracks are great, this latest Guetta offering has so many of them that it becomes a bit monotonous.

You feel so relieved when things are interrupted with a female vocal track, of which there are WAY too few. The female vocalists bring the more melodic sounding stunners, like, "Baby When the Lights Go Out", "Delirious", "Do Something Love", "You're Not Alone" has a generic female sample saying, "you're not alone", but this one almost borders on a retro-industrial sound.

Overall, Guetta keeps up the sound he's known for, but doesn't vary the intensity or give us enough female vocals, which leaves us with a series of songs that are consistently overly aggressive--bordering on manic. You may need to break this one up with some more mellow dance tracks to pace yourself.
