On the flip side, if you're just listening to it while driving, you'll be happy to know that you won't have to hold the 'skip' button for the first minute of the song in order to get to actual-lyrics. Folks looking for extended mixes reminiscent of Avalon's "The Best Thing (Euro Stack Mix)" or the remix of "Can't Live a Day" on the same album, each of which clocking in at nearly 7 minutes long, will find themselves dissatisfied a number of tracks on this album forego even an 8-bar intro/outro, so if you're using this to DJ, make SURE you make your Serato cue points on the tracks you intend to play. Also, for better or worse, the way you fit 30 dance remixes on two CDs is because these are all basically radio edits. There's very little in the way of trap, jungle/tribal, or chillout represented here, so fans of those subgenres will have to look elsewhere. The EDM gamut is inconsistently covered here some garden variety pop remixes, a bit of house(ish), more 'serious' trance and techno, and some dubstep here and there for good measure. I don't like every track on this double album, but even the ones I don't like are well produced and don't make a mess.
This is the second best, and that's saying something.
The best remix album ever released was O2: Avalon Remixed, back in 2002.
