Clips #22
Dance Beauty

Against All Odds (Club Mix) - Willie and Co.mp3
Remake of the Phil Collins ballad - done is the early 90's style of "Please Don't Go" by Double You and Haddaway's "Where Is Love". Pop sounding vocals - but they work.

I'm Leaving (Disco Mix) - Joy.mp3
Another great Italo House sound with wonderful yearning vocals by diva, Joy. Great familiar house piano track - but used efficiently.

La Yerba Del Diablo (Brujo) - Datura.mp3
This band may have been too far ahead of their time. Great haunting melodies and driving synthesizers. Categorized as techno, but more ambient to me.

Love Fantasy - Joey Negro.mp3
House music joined forces with a new breed of deejay turned producers to create winning tracks like this one. The best of Joey Negro's style during the early 90's is contained here.

Never Let Her Slip Away - Undercover.mp3
Another band similar to Chyp-Notic, Bad Boys Blue and Haddway - great 60's pop sound with UK dance sound.

No Good Boy (Vocal) - Maxi Shannon.mp3
Sassy Italo "girl done wrong song." She does not put up with it. These vocals are unique in their own way and are sampled over a downbeat house piano track. Effective and very danceable. Great backing vocals!

Take My Breath Away (Club Version) - 2U.mp3"Top Gun" theme done early morning Italo style - using Grace Jones' "La Vie En Rose" percussion track to create a Saint-like feel. Vocals are close being a bit too much but thanks to the great keyboards and arrangement, they are saved! If you haven't heard their remake of Sinnead O'Connor's "Nothing Compares 2 U" - it is similar and if this is agreeable - it is probably a must!
